Tom Browne on Ch 7 tonight said missing out on Bennell puts more pressure on Richmond to land Chris Yarran. Trade scribes saying Yarran is worth a first round pick  ::) and Carlton will want a first round pick.

Pressure to land one of the softest players on the market this year. There should no pressure he is worth a second and if not FO.

Get used to us coughing up a first round pick inside 18 here guys if we land yazzz.

This as Jackstar would say is FACT!!

At this point in time with Yarran the way he is and had been all year we could not possibly be stupid enough to give up pick 12... Seriously we just could not be that stupid.

That's media pressure. Tom Browne is a Pies man and he may be rubbing it in over Treloar etc, would rather keep our picks than find something that's not the right fit. If blokes do not want to come so be it but at the same time lets not give away our picks for the fruitless exercise of appeasing the masses to show that we are being proactive. Jordan McMahon, Shaun Hampson anyone?

Getting the right player is like buying the right car. A family with three kids don't need a Ferrari even though a Ferrari is a car albeit an expensive one and Mr and Mrs Jones can afford it. When possibly a Ford Territory or a Mazda CX-9 will do the job also and more conveniently and correctly. Not every millionare with a budget drives a European Sport or Luxury Car.

The club needs to get this right. Has to be the right fit and if he does not want to be here well move on. If you're looking for a house you din't waste your money when you can't find one frittering it away on other things. Just because its there it does not mean it right for you and you are right for it.

Trade week starts Friday lets see how ambitious or conservative our club is.

Richmond has considerable salary cap space to accommodate some star signings to bolster its list on the back of three-straight elimination final exits.

The Tigers are still expected to secure Yarran in the exchange period, although the two clubs have been unable to agree to terms of a deal.

The Blues want a first-round draft pick for the 24-year-old, while the Tigers believe he is worth a second-round selection.

We won't be trading it for Yarran, so they need to move on or find someone else to trade with.

Problem is we cannot get a star player to want to sign with us. We had an additional $500k to spend I believe due to not paying the maximum TPP over the past two seasons. How have we not been able to lure a star by front ending his contract and lure him? WTF is going on  :banghead

Just tells me, for some unknown reason, players do not want to come to our club. You'd think after 3 consecutive finals, sorting ourselves out off field as well that we'd be attractive to players . . . to date it doesn't appear that way. I'd love to know why say Collingwood/Geelong are more attractive to join than Richmond? I can understand Hawthorn as every players wants to win a premiership and they've got 3 in a row....

Our club needs better players if we are going to win a final. We need A-grade ready made players, not an 18yo who is going to be playing VFL all season. Where are they going to come from? Dangerfield wants to go to Geelong, Treloar snubbed us for Collingwood, the club has said no to Bennell (speculative at best as to why at this stage). That's 3 players who were available that would ave improved our list on end, that we have failed to get (as it stands).

Who is left available that is A-grade?
