Richmond won't be landing a big name star: Dan Richardson (Herald-Sun)
« on: October 09, 2015, 10:21:20 PM »
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.”

Well gee whiz.....couldn't see this coming.....

Actually more concerned that - as I already knew -we're looking to play Yarran of half back....obviously pinning a lot of hopes on those guns, Lloyd, Gordon and the kid Butler to meet our desperate small forward needs next year....or will Supercoach go to the Morris well once again? Can hardly wait! :gotigers

wasnt there something very recently that they were looking to play yarran as a forward, or was that just some nupties view?

this is a new strategy
