From source:- Apparently a few weeks ago we sounded out McCartin and his manager about joing the tigers.
Apparently he isnt happy at the saints but is contracted until the end of 2018 (not that that matters if all parties agree).
Would he be a good fit or has he simply not shown enough and be a risk? For mine, i think we need a second fwd who is ruck size. But on potential talent he might be worth having a crack at. Dunno, one of our first picks might be worth it.

Pass

KB asked Balmey about this today on their weekly "Sportchat" hour ie would the tigers be interested or are they talking to McMartin's manager
Balmey said nothing :rollin

Should be in every KPP's ear, hell even Dawsons. That's how bad our KPP depth is

Another concussion prone kpf

Yerp another balsa wood head. Rather just grab his brother in the draft.

But its looking like we don't have a Griffiths next season.

If we got him cheap I'd want him. But I'm suspecting they'll want a high pick

No thanks

I would far prefer Schache.....

One concussion prone pea heart for another.

He has probably seen what Prestia got with the shot knees and poor kicking so thinks Richmond will offer him a big payday even if his body is not up to the rigours of AFL level.
-
Straight swap for Prestia
-
No

we're not exactly swimming in KPF so if the the price is right I would consider it. as per the Mitchell trade i would happily give pick 88 for McCartin

Richmond should make a move for St Kilda forward Paddy McCartin, says club legend Kevin Bartlett

McCartin is out of favour with the Saints this season, having been edged out of the side due to the form of their three-pronged attack led by Nick Riewoldt, Tim Membrey and Josh Bruce.
The 21-year-old has not played since Round 3 and wasn’t picked to feature against the Giants ahead of their Friday night clash, despite kicking seven goals in the VFL last weekend.
“(McCartin) would be a great fit for the Tigers,” Bartlett told SEN on Friday morning.
“The No.1 draft pick is playing reserves footy and is into his third year without establishing himself as a regular.
“Richmond needs another forward key position player badly. Tyrone Vickery is a Hawk, Ben Griffiths sadly has concussion issues and Todd Elton is not the answer up forward.
“McCartin booted seven goals last week in the reserves and still no recall.
“All the talk is the Saints are chatting with the Giants midfield star Josh Kelly and Nat Fyfe keeps getting mentioned.
“The Tigers should start having a quiet word with McCartin.”
The Tigers are reportedly keen on finding a key forward partner for Jack Riewoldt at season’s end and have already been linked with a move for Brisbane youngster Josh Schache.
Fellow Richmond legend Matthew Richardson suggested on Thursday night that the Tigers should also consider an approach for Carlton’s Levi Casboult.
