Wouldn't go near JJ. Extremely overrated for mine.

Why do you think he's overrated?

Listed at 199/107 the bloke is a beast.

Cleary a very quick player by foot if you've seen him play.

8 games 25 goals this year.

111 goals in his last 50 games.

Can ruck too.

Big upgrade on either Vickery or Griffiths.

The goals don't mean a lot to me. Gets a lot of cheap ones like Vickery.

He's an athletic stuff. Just don't think he has much footy nous nor really impacts games.

Yet , if you get JJ for free

Trade for a top 15-25 pick or two, for Tyrone and or griff then you are winning ?

More so if you reinvest in a Patton ...

Then he grabbed two chopsticks and stuck them in his mouth , pretending to be a walrus

Absolutely. JJ would need to be traded for but wouldn't he?

I wouldn't mind us having a shot at James Stewart from GWS. His dad played for the Tigers (after 100+ with Collingwood)and I  think we were keen on him in his draft year (2012). I think he has been pretty good when  i have seen him play and he  having trouble getting a spot in the GWS forward line (any wonder :)). He was taken at pick 27 so would be a low cost / right age selection. Apparently he has been dominating in the NEAFL (no big shakes there). Anything would be an upgrade on Vickery!!

If Mason Wood is up for grabs we should at least be sniffing aroud. Kid will be a star. Would take him ahead of just about any young KPF bar Cameron & Hogan.

We are keen I believe and we should be as he is playing well but not getting the opportunity.

Big $$$ are coming his way if he chooses to leave, kids going real well.
If I had my choice of up and comer forwards then 2 metre Peter is the one,that kid is just warming up.
The possibility of physical and mental collapse is now very real. No sympathy for the Devil, keep that in mind. Buy the ticket, take the ride.

Exactly what I was thinking.
The guy is a stuff. He is trending upwards at an incredible rate.
If Boyd is worth $1 million, this guy is worth more. Why aren't we bold and offer him the same 5 year deal as Boyd? We need to take risks, and this guy is a 15 year player.
Do it tiges!
OER. Calling it as it is since 2004.

Good call on Wright, forgot about him. Wonder what it would take to get him & Wood? Riewoldt to GC - Deledio to North?

Reckon Wood easily has as much potential as Stringer.  :shh

If you were a forward from another club why would you come to Richmond where you have to wait until your team mates have finished going backwards and sideways before bringing the ball forward?

In the meantime the opposition have flooded your forward line so there is little space to work in.
