Richmond won't be landing a big name star: Dan Richardson (Herald-Sun)

[Stalin]

A single player might not take you all the way but add selwood,and henderson also and that might

Since Geelongs last finals campaign in 2014 They have lost.....
Christensen
Varcoe
Stevie J
Kelly
Rivers
Stokes

They have gained.....
Clarke
Stanley
Dangerfield
Selwood

They also have the following players over the age of 30.....
Bartel (32)
Enright (35)
Lonergan (31)
Mackie (31)
It's going to be intresting to see but my gut feeling is they might just make the 8 next year and will realy need some of there kids to step right up if there going to make the GF.

of that group is it fair to say Christensen is the one that hurts? Given his age and talent

dangerfield is a fair replacement

Someone better than conca

Yet Conca has probably done more than Yarran. Why do people rate him so highly.

The top 15 - 20 picks  this year are well worth having.
Surely we are at a stage where we just admit there wont be a big fish, it isnt the end of the world we have hb options we just need to play blokes there. Lets just  give up on Yarran and now attempt to trade into the top 15 or so picks.
This is exactly what Carlton are doing with the Yarran trade. Lets go to the youth well again and be patient.

they did this two weeks ago

keep up

I dont live on the site like some, or read every thread. Excuse me for voicing an opinion. Who did this two weeks ago?  point me to the thread and i will take it there.

i cannot work out why richmond would announce this strategy public-ally before the start of trade week

in what why is it beneficial to the club?

surely it only strengths carlton SHOWING OUR HAND?

why would they not bend us over a barrel with knowledge we are only after b grade yarren type fish and not anyone of note?

got me stumped

bit of help ??

i am not on expert of afl trades but i got some idea. in other sports like associaition football or basketball it would be seen as a truly weird way to go about it me thinks ...

RICHMOND has conceded defeat in its pursuit of a big name star and turned its attention to Greater Western Sydney hard nut Jacob Townsend.

Townsend, 22, has played only 28 games in four seasons at the Giants and only one this year because of injury and lack of opportunity.

“We have two needs that we have identified — one a rebounding defender, which is hopefully (Carlton’s) Chris Yarran, and the other is an inside midfielder,” Tigers football boss Dan Richardson said on Friday.

“Ideally we would have liked to have got an elite mid like (Adam) Treloar, but that’s not going to happen.

Asked if the club would still attempt to land a star midfielder during next week’s trade period, Richardson said: “You never say never, but the reality is we’ve been connected to everyone. Some of it’s true and some of it’s not. If we can bring those two players in we’ll be quite happy.”
