6 draft picks and 6 have to go. Who leaves at seasons end.
« on: June 06, 2021, 08:03:26 AM »
Choose your 6 who leave Richmond at the end of 2021.

1. Derek Eggmolese Smith
2. Ryan Garthwaite
3. David Astbury
4. Bachar Houli
5. Will Martyn
6. Jack Ross

There my 6. I think Martyn is to slow and Ross is a dime a dozen type footballer who can easily be replaced. Houli and Astbury should retire. EGG shouldnt have been bought back and Garthwaite is to small to play key defence. Thry are my 6.

Forgot to add that if trading Jason Castagna was possible Id do that and probably keep Ross.

May not have 6 picks.

Could trade two to get a higher pick or could trade some into next year.

I'd happily move on the same 6 myself. Cotchin might think about retiring also.

Naish has got to go. Egg too.

Caddy traded for a future 3rd or 4th.

Houli, Astbury retire

One more after that

I think people forget that apart from the Swans game, Georgie had a solid first 5 rounds where he kicked 9 or 10 goals and averaged 14 touches. Apart from GWS and last night, he’s had a shocker since then.
At his best, he’s bloody important to our forward structure - particularly given Dan Rioli’s fall from grace.
His numbers aren’t a ton different to Jakey Aarts, if we’re going to be trading or delisting a small forward, it should be Dan Rioli
“I find it nearly impossible to make those judgments, but he is certainly up there with the really important ones, he is certainly up there with the Francis Bourkes and the Royce Harts and the Kevin Bartlett and the Kevin Sheedys, there is no doubt about that,” Balme said.

Don’t think we will be keeping CCJ and Chol .. salary cap makes it hard
One will go for big dollars

I wouldn’t be against trading some tiddlywinks for ex GWS midfielder Matthew Kennedy.

For some reason he’s out of favour at the blues and can’t buy a game even though from what I’ve seen he’s significantly a better player than Dow, Setterfield and Plowman all put together  :lol
But we all know Carlton are stupid. He’s a body mid that has poise, smarts and doesn’t panic under pressure and he also kicks goals.

Age: 24
Height: 190cm
Weight: 88 kgs
Draft Pick: 13 (2015)
2016–2017 Greater Western Sydney 19 games 9 goals
2018– Carlton 29 games and 23 goals
Total 48 games 30 goals.

I think at our club he would be a better player. Apparently we matched bids when he was drafted.

Just because we have 6 picks doesn't mean we'll use 6 picks... reckon we will lose at least one of CCJ or Chol possibly both and if we go after Cerra one of our WA players will be part of the deal but it'll cost us a pick as well and Houli should retire so there's another spot .... :shh

Doubtful
