Shane Tuck [merged]

[Infamy]

If he can't be traded for anything of worth then I hope we play him all year as a forward and make sure he finishes high in the B&F, then try to shop him to GC17 the following year or let him go as an uncontracted player. That way we may get a decent return from him from the AFL as his constant Top 3 finishes in the B&F and leading stats in the AFL would get him a pretty good compensation pick.

Agree Infamy. If Rainesy is worth a 3rd round pick then surely Tucky is worth at least a 2nd rounder. If we can't get something decent for him now then there's no point in trading him. We'd be better off waiting to next year as you suggest Infamy and use the compensation system for losing out of contract players to GC17.

I think Tucky could go alright in the forward line on a stuff / pocket.

He is has a bit of Martin Pike or even Max Rooke in him.

Good mark and big for a midfeilder. If he could smash a few more people (ala Rooke / Jackson) it could work

Campbell stepped out of the coaching race & had nothing to do with the in fighting which l might add is not over. He had nothing to do with Tuck being dropped.
As l said before some players want out cause its not a happy place at Tigerland

Whats the story? Who is fighting who now?  Its not over, so whats going on?

Which players disliked Rawlings?

Which players are unhappy?

do tell.

Robbo on the HUN website now answering questions about trades.

"What should Richmond do? Should they trade Tuck, what could they expect for him? "

Robbo: Tuck is gone, and plenty of interest i understand. He will go around again

Let's hope Robbo is closer to being right than Denham is.

Pg 115 in the Herald-Sun today says there's little in Tucky....


"Andrew Raines, who has left Richmond, remains on track to join Brisbane. Shane Tuck, another leaving Richmond, has not attracted much interest. "

Then this now becomes an awkward situation with Tuck disillusioned with the club, the club not seeing him as part of their long term future, Tucky still contracted and no one wants to take him. If he does go now it will be for a much higher pick than what he is worth which makes the whole undertaking meaningless IMHO.

[Ramps]

clubs leaking views to journos is all part of the game. trying to undervalue other clubs players is part of the process. hopefully 1 club makes a decent offer.

Tuck for fev. Coburg could use him with Schulz gone.

RICHMOND

Likely to have a quiet week. Already Andrew Raines has departed for Brisbane, but interest in Shane Tuck might come late. It is likely the Tigers will keep their high picks.

Mark Doran on SEN just said responding to a Tigers supporter that there's been no interest in Tuck but he could be one of those trades that is done late. If not he stays at Richmond.

Play him on the forward line

A very reasonable option Mopsy.
