this site's favourite whipping boy is currently unsigned

Would argue Hugo has been overtaken by a bloke called Jack

Nah
Hugo is clearly the number one whipping boy
It’s just that when it comes to Jack Graham you are very defensive and there is a clear bias

Have to respectfully disagree, reading some of the comments this year in Graham thread it is hard not to believe he is number 1 whipping boy. Say it for 2 reasons, firstly even when he played well this season he was criticised, appeared no matter how he played the same posters went whackety, whack, whack

2ndly,  any poster who happened to give him credit or defend him got (by some) belittled or in some cases trolled.

As for being defensive,  no, frustrated most definitely see my comments above. Just reckon he's copped it unfairly quite alot in season 2024

Heard the Swans list manager just rang Hartley enquiring about Lynch.... :shh

dusty also.

re: lynch they would be stupiud not to, and given how we butchered his body then he would be stuipid not to consider.

Could also be heading back up to Qld now it looks like Smokin' Joe's hanging up the boots..... :shh

Every AFL club’s targets, exits and picks to use in deals — Mega trade state of play

RICHMOND

Players that could leave

Richmond could be the busiest club in the competition come October’s movement period, with a host of departures expected. It is fait accompli that Liam Baker and Shai Bolton will return to Western Australia — Baker still hasn’t decided on the Eagles or Dockers, while Bolton is all but certain to become a Fremantle player. Daniel Rioli will reunite with Damien Hardwick in Carrara, while Jack Graham is weighing up four-year contract offers from the Eagles and Tigers. Both Baker and Graham are said to be waiting to see who the Eagles hire as their new senior coach before coming to final decisions. Kamdyn McIntosh, Noah Cumberland, Thomson Dow, Matt Coulthard, Mate Colina and Oliver Hayes-Brown remain without contracts for next season. Dustin Martin, Dylan Grimes, Marlion Pickett and Sam Naismith retired, though Martin has shockingly ‘reached out’ to Gold Coast about the possibility of playing there in 2025.

Players that could arrive

Richmond’s list boss Blair Hartley has a host of crucial negotiations to navigate ahead of this November’s evenly spread draft, where the Tigers are anticipated to make numerous top-end selections amid a list rehaul. The Tigers have retained premiership veteran Dion Prestia on a one-year deal. Essendon midfielders Ben Hobbs and Elijah Tsatas have been touted as the sort of players the Tigers might target this off-season, but there are no concrete links between the club and either player.

Who’s already gone

Dylan Grimes (retired), Dustin Martin (retired), Sam Naismith (retired), Marlion Pickett (retired)

Draft picks

1, 21, 29, 39, 41, 47, 57, 66, 72

Richmond and GCS have verbally agreed that pick 6 will be involved in the Rioli deal.

Richmond will continue to push for more but a great first step. Later picks or future picks may need to be involved if GCS will part with another top 20 pick.

Richmond are one of the clubs James Peatling has met with.

From what I’ve been told he’s taking into account of contract security, clubs that offer longer deals will appeal a lot more.

ps. Tom Morris tonight on Ch 9 said Peatling has met with Melbourne based clubs.

Apparently, a Tiger supporter too. Said we should go after Parfitt as our midfield is the worst in the comp. Also, that we have the salary cap space to offer Peatling more than what GWS are and play him on the wing/midfield.

If Horse ends up at West Coast then I imagine Bakes and Graham will hitch their wagons that side of the wild west….
“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.

Shai Bolton, nothing has changed. He wants to get back to WA. He won't nominate a club, he just wants to play for either team next year."

Like many at @Richmond_FC, Shai Bolton has an excellent relationship with Andrew McQualter… But the @freodockers remain his likely landing spot thanks to their haul of draft picks.

He won’t be nominating a club. It will come down to which of the WA teams can offer the Tigers the best deal.

Suspect Bolton 100% wants freo regardless of what gets out out in the media. But if west coast want to come to the table then pick 3 and 13 will do just fine. They’d be stupid to do that imo considering where their list is at but I’m not complaining lol. Wouldn’t leave them anything attractive enough to give us for baker though other than 2025 picks.
