Welcome to Tiger land Riley Collier’Dawkins

My three to chop would be:

Aarts
Will Martin
Mansell

There is also the uncertainty on Stack.
We could look to trade George, (only 26 years of age), with Cumberland, JNR, Shai and (Clarke promising).

Already 3 spots freed up by retirements of :

Lambert
Parker
Shedda

If we trade for Tarranto we may not take many picks into the draft this year?
I like mansell and am not a fan of castagna so my hope is we trade George. I also hope we use our picks in the draft rather than trade for TT. Maybe even try to upgrade our first by trading out soldo… pretty brutal I know. We are a talented tall forward and a grade mid away for more premiership glory in my opinion… unless we snag one this year.

If only there were an A-grade mid who wanted to come to Richmond...

I put a line through RCD last year.

But I'd give him one more year.

I'm not sure we have a ready list replacement for him, and at the least, he's a good VFL player for us next year. If he manages to start the year as he finished it, he may see senior action.

My biggest problem with RCD isn't that he's a long shot to make it, it's that even if he does, he plays like Dangerfield.

I don't even want the good Dangerfield.

He has a 10 yr deal in front of him but not at Richmond.
He apparently a heated 1 on 1 with Hardwick last year about the way he plays. He has No run to the next contest and he Continues to kick and stop.
And that's All she wrote.
He alongside the retirees this year and will join this unbelievable list of shithouse 1st rounders.
Lennon Highins Ellis Conca Coleman Jones 19 that's a 1st rounder

You mean he will star in insignificant H&A games, but then go missing in finals?
That's OK, we can just rest him in Sept knowing that is when the true greats will step up.

If I was him:
if Dimma told me to jump, I’d say ‘how high?’
Or I’d just jump

RCD could make it in the big time but he needs to take a leaf out of the Sonsie's training book and do the hard work necessary and have that desperate want to succeed. The Sonz came from a long way back when he joined and now look at the back end of his first season, playing in the firsts

Playing in the firsts because he is a better footballer. That’s all really.

I suspect we will keep him due to having limited useful draft picks available to us this year.
I agree. He will probably be last player contracted based on who we may pick up and if he gets any offers from other clubs. Rookie at best I think or 1 year on minimum salary.

I reckon if he is serious he needs to go to one of the lower leagues and dominate for a year or 2 to get an offer.
