Richmond's trade period rating?

[one-eyed]

From the HeraldSun:

Richmond Tigers

IN: Jacob Koschitzke (Hawthorn)

OUT: Ivan Soldo (Port Adelaide), Bigoa Nyuon (North Melbourne)

PICKS: 29, 41, 65, 68

After Jack Riewoldt’s retirement and with a lingering injury cloud over Tom Lynch, the Tigers needed to add another key forward to their list and did that with Kochitzke. He is a 196cm forward who at 23 years old is still developing but has shown promise. Richmond didn’t want to lose Soldo, but eventually budged on the ruckman and let him have his wish to join Port Adelaide in a deal that boosted the Tigers’ draft hand both this year and next year and was ultimately too good to ignore. There could be issues if co-captain Toby Nankerivs is wiped out by injury or suspension next year, though.

Expert Rating (Chris Cavanagh): 6

From The Age:

14. Richmond

In: Jacob Koschitzke (Hawthorn/trade), picks 41, 65 and future second-round (Fremantle) and fourth-round (Port Adelaide) picks.

Out: Bigoa Nyuon (North Melbourne/trade), Ivan Soldo (Port Adelaide/trade), pick 50.

Draft picks: 29, 41, 65, 68, 86

Trade grade: C+

Eventually decided to trade Soldo to Port Adelaide for a reasonable price but were otherwise quiet having been big players last season when they recruited midfielders Taranto and Hopper. With a new coach, the list is in transition, but they still remain contenders if Tom Lynch is fit, adding Koschitzke in support.

Have Richmond done well with limited resources in this trade period?

Should have tried to move on Graham and Ralph but I thought we did well in the trades we executed.

You never know how a new coach can inspire some players…🙏🙏

[pmac21]

You get points for just being active in the trade period, whether the players in or out are duds.

Yep.

It's like a competition who can trade the most in or out.

Didn’t we win last years 😂😂

They are merely depth players. Too much time is spent on them, we know what they deliver and it more than likely won’t cut it in our best 22.

According to the media the Cats did, they went from Premiers to missing the 8. Being trade premiers very rarely = onfield success, just ask the bombers

Tom Morris rates our trade period the worst.


18 – Richmond

“I think the team that has performed the worst in this off-season so far is Richmond.

“I don't think they've done enough. Yes, they got a future second-rounder for Ivan Soldo.

“But I think for a team that should be regenerating on the run, they should have done more.”

I don’t believe in doing trades for the sake of it. Like Essendon always “wins” trade period but where are they now? Like on proven A grade talent for me grundy was the only name and that came with a price tag and not to mention he wanted to go to Sydney anyway.

Only thing that would be better for me is trading out graham for another R2 this year and Ralph for a fun size pack of skittles

As opposed to the Cats who did one rubbish trade. Their list is older, slower and showing far more signs of fatigue than ours
