Confirmed on the AFL's Trade Tracker with the 3rd rounder being pick 50.

Richmond gains: Adelaide’s end-of-first round compensation for losing Nathan Bock and a third-round draft selection (No.50)
Adelaide gains: Richard Tambling

Trade done

Tambling gone for two picks - Adelaide compo pick and their 3rd rounder

two picks are better than one  :clapping

Great deal and the end of a sorry saga really.

Do people think we should spend our compo pick straight away or save it for the uncompromised 2012 draft?

I'm leaning towards saving it, it is worth heaps more to us a club in two years, there will be no quality left if we use it this year

fantastic result, better than i expected. :o

 I'd prefer to use the pick on a kid but if they decide to use it on grigg or houli i would accept it, as we still have our 3rd pick intact and will get another pick for thursfield.

Good result actual no stuff it great result.

Well done RFC for not turning Tambling into a Schulz by allowing his currency to be zero.

Currently a member of the Roupies, and employed by the great man Roup.

In two years it would still only be worth pick 20
I think we should use it now or we'll be two years behind in building on a kid.

Great result snaring two picks. I agree daniel - great to trade him now rather than waiting and hoping he will finally come good. We can't lose in thsi situation - he was never going to come good for us and wasn't even in our best 22 so regardless of how well he plays at the Crows it is a smart move. Now we just need to use the picks wisely unlike the picks we had in the top 20 when we traded Ottens...

Very happy  :cheers

Great move by the club. Two picks are better than one. Use the compensation pick this season on a kid. It's a compromised draft this year and next so use it now and get some games into that kid next year.

Can honestly say this is a win win for both clubs and finally yes we have traded a player when we should have and IMHO have received overs for him. :thumbsup

Good deal for the Tiges and agree we traded him at the right time. I do wish Bling all the best, he did get it from both side just because he went before Franklin, but the circus moves on - tthe dogs keep barking.

The good thing is we stuffed Carlton up a bit as the Crow pulled out of the trade for Walker.

I would be disapointed if we gave up one of these picks for Houli as we should be able to trade Polo for him.

Griggs could come to us through the Pre Season if WC have anther player lined up.

Why because the Club wanted to trade him and he agreed  ;D

He wanted out and is no longer a Tiger - No bad wishes, just no good one's. Just another player
