Tom Browne on Ch 7 news just now:

Bulldog Lin Jong most likely off to the Gold Coast despite his mid-season 'visit' to the Pies.

Brisbane's Pearce Hanley also off to the Suns for a first round pick.

Tom Mitchell should nominate Hawthorn as his preferred club to move to. Swans to use the freed up salary cap space on Heeney, Mills and Allir.

Also 3 Giants on the move - Marchbank to the Blues; Hoskin-Elliot to the Pies; and Jack Steele to the Saints.

Would gladly take any of those players mentioned.

Great work Tigers... Just keep biding your time... Until I'm dead...

Fyfe was a Tiger fan as a kid 

 

If only those who actually played for us were Tiger fans too

Don't listen to what is reported by media trying to stimulate interest, its the goings on behind closed doors that matters. Jack for example has said many times he is going nowhere which has been confirmed by club and his manager yet, they still put up articles on the AFL web site saying "clubs circling".....utter crap from media flogs! We can land Fyfe dont worry about that

Pickers on Jay Schulz: We're hopeful of him playing AFL next year.

Damo on Wells: Can I put it to you that it's 2 years from the Roos and 3 from the Pies
Pickers: Yeah that's around the mark. The Cats have got some interest too, there's no doubt about that.

Wallace with some news on a potential recruit for @WestCoastEagles - @CoburgFC ruckman Tom Goodwin in the frame.

Lucas in Sicily: He is very keen to remain at the Hawks. The Suns are going to ask for quality from the Hawks though.

RICHMOND

Draft selections: 6, 42, 60, 78
Unsigned free agents: Ty Vickery (restricted)
Delistings/retirements: Troy Chaplin (ret), Adam Marcon, Liam McBean, Reece McKenzie (ret)

AFL.com.au says:

After missing out on several big-name recruits in recent years, the Tigers convinced Suns midfielder Dion Prestia to nominate Punt Road as his preferred new home.

The Tigers will probably have to send pick No.6 to Gold Coast to get the deal done, but could receive one of the Suns' four second-round picks or a fringe Sun in addition to Prestia.

Richmond made a big play for Geelong speedster Steven Motlop last year and rival clubs suspect they could renew that interest this year, possibly as part of an exchange for star veteran Brett Deledio.

Despite constant denials from club and player, Deledio, 29, could depart as the Tigers seek to refresh their list.

Richmond will also look to bolster its ruck division if veteran Ivan Maric accepts an offer to join Collingwood.

Ruck/forwards

Richmond has been linked to Nathan Vardy and the injury-prone 25-year-old Cat could prove to be a bargain, if he can stay on the park.

Vardy has a ton of talent but has managed just 25 games since his debut in 2011 after a series of knee and hip problems.

Whats our obsession with injury prone players??

[Eat_em_Alive]

Lol could just imagine a trade of Lids and 78 for Motlop and vardy 

[WA Tiger]

Whats our obsession with injury prone players??

It is our approach to consistency, successful clubs use consistency for other reasons, such as winning flags. We are consistently good at picking up garbage, we are in fact #1 in the AFL at it.
