once a upon a time we didn't rate Andy Gowers who was a passionate Richmond person and he went to on to play Premiership football at Hawthorn. I think its an indictment on our club that O'Rourke is not a Richmond player today.

Can't believe we didn't go for Gartlett. The club is a shambles, was basically free.

he's kicked how many goals? He's a proven goal kicker and would've feasted on the crumbs at Jack's feet

We have been there and done that argument and basically it was determined without Betts there to take the heat off he is crap

im with you mrakov. Most players at the blues went backwards under Mick and im tipping he is one of those.
Would take him in a heartbeat over winderlich or most hacks we seem to recruit.

Have split the commentary from the completed trade thread that will be used for listing completed Trades ONLY
Any comments about said trades post here without potting other posters

Not really fussed about this trade period.
Think we have done okay avoiding some of the older players. Don't want Frawley, Waite, Higgins, Greenwood, Varcoe or Garlett, particularly for the cost.
Players like Patfull, Malceski, Beams, Griffin and Gorringe are going to other clubs mainly as lifestyle choices so no chance to get them.
The ones from GWS are the worry for me.
I would have liked any of O'Rourke (20yo, 184, 78), Jaksch (20yo, 196, 90), Whiley (22yo, 188, 87) or Frost (21yo, 194, 93) but the worry is the picks needed.
We could have got O'Rourke for our pick 12 but it's overs for him judging on the Hawks pick 18.
Jaksch and Whiley (and pick 19) are obviously available for Carlton's pick 7 and think we could have got something if we gave a player but again it means giving the pick 12.
Obviously the club thinks that there are better option than O'Rourke at pick 12 in the draft.
We'll see, but I have a bit more of an open mind with Luke Williams involved in the juniors selection.
Edit: moved from other thread. Good idea WP.

I may be wrong but pretty sure Hodgey and Crawf were mad tiger supporters too. They love em down at the hawks
-
Crawford was definitely a Richmond supporter. Tragedy never played for the club.

We could have got O'Rourke for our pick 12 but it's overs for him judging on the Hawks pick 18.9

Nice to see a measured, logical post about this trade period. Makes a nice change from most of the doom and gloom and stupid hyperthetical trade stuff.

Hodge was a tiger fan too

And then the club decides to trade pick 12 for Trengove. :banghead
Bigger risk than trading pick33 for Hampson.

no, downgrade pick 12 to 22, if it happens

hhhaaarrrggghh only one person thought that way and he clearly has no idea.
how anyone would not want to give garlett a go for a 4th rounder well it is stupidity. some of us keep on saying this bloke has a decent record despite his last yr.

12. St Kilda and Geelong have finalised a trade sending tall forward Rhys Stanley and pick No.60 to the Cats in exchange for pick No.21.

Geelong are stuffed 21 for a hack

Geelong have gone mad. Stanley and Mitch Clarke and they lose Varcoe and Chistensen. Somethings wrong on the Bellarine peninsula tonight. Of the two recruits Stanley will play crap and Clarke may or may not play at all, thats a pretty big gamble
