Sign them up: Your club's contract priorities

Nick Bowen

RICHMOND

Sign him up: Shai Bolton.
Since being taken at pick No.29 in the 2016 NAB AFL Draft, the livewire small forward has played just eight senior games, including this year's opening two rounds. However, given time, the silky-skilled West Australian has the class to force his way into Richmond's powerhouse line-up. Managed by Dustin Martin's mentor, Ralph Carr, Bolton has put off contract talks with the Tigers until the end of the season, but he is understood to be happy at Punt Road and enjoying living in Melbourne.

Others of note:
Nathan Broad, Jayden Short, Jacob Townsend

2018 free agents:
Reece Conca, Shaun Grigg, Bachar Houli (restricted)

Conca just ahead of Drummond & Hamspud in order of impotence...er I mean "importance"...

Short the clear top priority for mine... :shh

Bach and grigg are gonna retire with us so they’re as good as done deals. Really doubt any team is going to make a play for injury prone conca considering no1 went after miles so it’s more of a question of if he’s offered a new contract rather then will he sign it.

Bolton and short would definitely receive offers from other clubs especially Bolton so I guess those two are the priority. Broad may get a little but not sure Townsend would get much from other clubs.

Fair few of the vfl boys left off this list too.
