Constable at Geelong on the outer. Won't play in the midfield if Selwood & Dangerfield are there and that's not going to change. Other clubs will come knocking at the end of the season according to Sam Edmund on SEN. 

A plodder who's being kept out of the side by the likes of Menegola? Yeah...nah...pass... :shh

Sam Edmund on SEN just said Richmond still has some interest in Brad Crouch. Not as much as Geelong (due to Crouch being Dangerfield's former teammate) but the interest is still there. Crouch is a restricted free agent.

I’m concerned about the psychological issues that might be brought back up when he has to sing our theme song without being forced to :lol

The Big Footy lads have been on this rumor for a year or 2 re Crouch.  Apparently the Crows are looking for players from S.A like Graham, Markov to strengthen their squad.  Not sure we would entertain that if he is a free agent.  He's solid but no star. 
Jack Graham should be in the seniors by the way.

They want CCJ & Graham.....they can probably just take Markov as a dfa.... :shh

Getting Crouch the slouch for "nothing" would be bad enough.(don't forget Adelaide will want a high pick as compo so he won't be cheap salary-wise)...actually trading a similar younger player and/or a young KPP with huge potential for him would be downright idiotic.. rather take any of Fogarty (fat chance),Laird or maybe Himmelberg and/or one of their firsts(they have a couple this year)... :shh :shh

According to Big Footy Richmond's main snout Tiger 71 (who I don't really rate but anyway) Adelaide, Wobbles & GWS all going "super hard" for CCJ and "strong noise" about Pickett back to Freo possibly to help us get Cerra.... :shh

Rival clubs keeping tabs on premiership Tiger Jack Graham (SEN)

Report: Rival clubs keeping tabs on premiership Tiger

SEN
12 August 2020


According to AFL Media’s Cal Twomey, rival clubs are keeping tabs on the premiership Tiger who falls out of contract at the end of 2020.

Twomey understands that clubs view Graham as a “gettable” player having fallen out of favour at selection.

The 22-year-old midfielder has played six games in 2020 and hasn’t featured at senior level for the reigning premiers since the Round 8 loss to GWS.

“He’s out of contract and talks had started on a new deal prior to the COVID-19 contract shutdown,” Twomey told AFL Media’s Footy Feed.

“He’s also out of the side, last weekend he played for an Essendon side in a scratch match so some others have gone ahead of him in the queue at Richmond – and other clubs are certainly seeing him as a gettable player now.

“He’s a South Australian, a hard-bodied midfielder … he can come in and make an impact straight away which he did at Richmond.

"They (Adelaide) are keen to build up their midfield … depending on what happens to Brad Crouch as well. They’d be one of the clubs out there who will have a look.

“A number of other clubs are watching this space with Jack Graham.”

A shoulder injury ruled Graham out of Richmond's Grand Final win over the Giants last year.

This guy probably made an article straight out of BF.

Anyway, happy to trade Graham personally. He has a few good games per year. Just make sure we get something useful no effing pick 55.

His shoulder is the big issue for me. Towards the ends of seasons he looks really good but at the start of seasons when coming back from a shoulder he just doesn’t look like he has the mobility and is effectively playing 1 armed.

Interesting situation with Graham. Do the club believe Will Martyn, Jack Ross, Thomas Dow and RCD can hold down tough inside mid positions in the future years? This could provide the answer as to should Graham stay or go...i would love him to stay.
I didn't put English in this group as i think his time will be up this year.

AFL Media co-host Mitch Cleary added “a number of clubs” are also looking at South Australian Tiger Callum Coleman-Jones.

One of three ruckmen on the Tigers’ list, Coleman-Jones is contracted to Richmond until the end of 2021 after recommitting to the club in late 2018.

Coleman-Jones made his debut for the Tigers against Essendon in 2019, but hasn’t added to his AFL games tally since.

With Jack R getting near the end, I hope we keep CCJ.
And you may not think I care for you
