Every AFL club's list needs ahead of 2021ESPN
27 October 2020ESPN expert Chris Doerre has taken a look at every club's list needs and come up with some trade and free agency moves to look out for.
RichmondList needs:- Outside midfield
- Rotational forward/midfielder
- Young key position player
Draft Picks: 19,32,55,73,91
Who should they target?Needing more in the way of quality outside midfielders,
Jack Sinclair -- who was unable to break into the Saints' best team until Round 8 -- would be a perfect stylistic fit as one of the competition's best pressure players by position. A well-rounded outside midfielder, Sinclair is on the edge of selection for the Saints and may be available at the right price.
Sticking with the stylistic fit and focus on forward pressure,
Lachlan Fogarty, who has been unable to earn regular senior opportunities for Geelong, is available. Chosen for only eight games over the past two seasons, Fogarty is an undervalued player who would fit Richmond's system seamlessly.
Having grown frustrated with West Coast for not receiving regular senior games,
Jarrod Brander brings something unique to the table as a key position player with the versatility to play at either end or as a tall wing. With ageing key position players at either end and room in the interim on a wing to play a role, Brander can be a low-cost but capable tall addition for Richmond.
The essential addition for Richmond through the draft is talented pressure forward
Maurice Rioli Jr as a father-son selection. The son of Maurice Snr is the premier pressure forward in this draft and is regularly found providing second, third and fourth efforts inside-50m.
