One thing to remember, this guys actually wants to come and play for the Tigers. Nobody else has so I'm really happy to hopefully be getting him. Also remember it's Carlton acting like cork heads not Yarran.
I think Carlton will see the light and take our offer of pick 19, which is pretty fair considering the year he and their club have had.
If we can achieve that and select a good kid at 12, we will have done well.
Yarran is better than most are willing to concede IMO. And best of he fills a need, he is quick, skillful and good goal sense. Play him forward!!
The way to force their hand is to go after Tomlinson and Plowman with these picks (12 & 19) and tell them they'll get Yarran next year as a FA. This will see them fold like a pack of cards, guaranteed. They will then look like they will lose two targets and keep a guy who doesn't want to play with them. :thumbsup

I agree good result if end up with picks 12 and 19.. I am worried about a player whose best game is always against us and we seek to draft on that basis. It reminds me of the decision to pick up Neeld.

At this point they don't, but they could be convinced and our picks are better than Carltons. GWS would much prefer to deal with us. Tomlinson is still contracted so he doesn't have the same power. Plus, it's called bluffing Petey.

I'm not sure if we have anything that GWS wants, they have pick 8, maybe they'd swap their picks 8,27 for our 12,19 and we can reduce our offer for Yarran that way.

Fair call

My view is if we get him for 19 that's a good deal

If Carlton refuse to deal happy to go to the draft with picks 12 & 19

Any truth to what i was told today and we should stay right away from Yarran, even if we got him for nothing!!!!

I really hope RFC are looking deeply into this bloke and any baggage he may be carrying

All part of the Dixon trade to port Adelaide

22. Gold Coast's Charlie Dixon traded to Port Adelaide.

Port receives Dixon and pick No.49 and gives up pick No.10 and its 2016 second-round pick.
Gold Coast receives picks No.10 and 31 and two 2016 second-round picks and gives up Dixon and picks No.19 and 49.
Richmond receives pick No.19 and gives up pick No.31 and its 2016 second-round pick.

If that is true I would pull the offer off the table.

Hey Carlton cheats guess what:

"we'll keep pick 19 and 12 and draft 2 very good kids thanks and you can keep Yarran warm for a year for us until we take him for free next year"

 :wavetowel :razz :highfive

Pick 19 very good kid? You sure about that as I'm
not with our record

Seriously though we must be so stuffin stupid or they have done a backflip to go through all that to get 19 which is effectively for nothing now.

Pick 19 in this draft is prob the same as 30 odd next year


Yes this bloke is soft but stuff it now we will just screw pick up anyhow so offer dea and 19. That should do the trick if they want or 19 and grigg

Fyfe went at pick 20

Hey Al, do you want to take this one? ::) ::)

nah, you cant change that mentality
