Trade talk, rumours & innuendo 2022

[Francois Jackson]

Don’t discount soldo either. That’s another 350k.

I do think they will back end the deals. That’s called smart management Caro you imbecile. 

[Rockster]

Yes we freed up all this money but this year we have already resigned on multiyear contracts Baker, Broad, Noah, Gibcus, Marlon , Miller, Daniel Rioli ,  MJR , Ross, Shorty , Ryan , Sonsie , Cotch , and JR8 , so with Dusty and Lynch back ended contracts kicking in this year our cap will be bursting at the seams , so I can see where everyone is sceptical re our cap space and adding another 1.5 Million into our cap

Sam McClure and The Age both reporting Hopper has agreed to join RFC.

Here comes the cavalry lads!

Also with new TV deal you'd think the salary cap will increase. Filling the cap now with long will be really clever. Meaning AVG wage for players will rise and we will have more room in cap later.

Tim Taranto AND Jacob Hopper have both requested trades to Richmond.

Thats huge

[Willy]

Bang!

This will put us right back in contention next year I reckon.

This is what sustained success and a good culture brings. We are a destination and this will be absolutely huge if we can land the both of them and get rid of some dead wood.

Tom Browne on Ch 7 arvo news saying [guessing], "Richmond will likely have to give up picks 12, 19, a future 1st round and Soldo."

Fantastic deal if you ask me.

7 years for Hopper is crazy if true. 
We're obviously all chips in on these 2.

Hope they gave him one hell of a medical on Monday.

Jay Clark on MMM guessed:

12 + 19 for Taranto

30 + future first + Soldo for Hopper.

Hoping we can manage to keep 1 of those 4 picks. Still sceptical that they’d want soldo.
