article on the AFL site named Three set for new homes by Wednesday is interesting.
ANDREJS Everitt, David Hale and Richard Tambling should all find new homes by Wednesday, their manager Ricky Nixon says.

Nixon said his players were looking for fresh starts and new opportunities during the trade period and expected all of them to generate strong interest.

"Tambling, Hale and Everitt will get somewhere, I won't go into which clubs at this stage, as soon as tomorrow maybe," Nixon said.

If Nixon is telling him than he's getting booed because he was taken before Franklin, sounds like he's being brainwashed.

RFC twitter page is saying our guys have now left and we're done for the opening day.


Stanton has re-signed with the Bombers. Essendon also out of the race for Jared Brennan.

Herald-Sun twitter saying Demons' 2nd round pick for Hale, plus swap of 1st round selections, is a sweet deal for North. And that Tarrant will emerge at chf nxt year.

However, midfielder Bachar Houli remains out of contract and Richmond has made a serious play for him.

It is understood the Tigers have  offered Houli a contract worth $600,000 over two years.

Carlton's Shaun Grigg is also on Tigers' radar, and a figure of $1 million over three years has been suggested.

Cats keen on Tambling apparently.

Pick 23 mentioned.
Could see a bidding war with Adel and Geel. :cheers
Geelong have 3 picks in the mid 20s so they have picks to play with. Good for us.

On reflection, you are more than likely correct. I see it now as more of a ploy by Nixon in 1. diverting the attention of prospective buyers to the supposed upset of not getting Franklin over Tambling as opposed to the supporters thinking that Tambling is a bad player and 2. Justifying Tamblings inability to play the game not because he himself is inadequate but because he has got bad coaches. Both of these scenerios draw attention away from Tamblings obvious flaws.

Well it wouldn't be wise for Richie to be acrimonious as if no deal can be done that satisfies us this week, he's still contracted to Richmond for two more years. That's the other thing if he hated us why agree to a new contract only two months or so ago. He could have hold off contract discussions and walked to the Gold Coast. We would've got a similar pick in the 20s as compo so it wouldn't have made a difference to the RFC as it seemingly will turn out.

Damien Barrett just reckoned before a swap of Tambling for Mark Blake would be a good deal for Richmond as "he's a premiership ruckman"  ::)

Nothing could be further from the truth

Don't take what Ricky Nixon says as gospel to what his client's think
