Should Richmond chase after Daniel Kerr?

Now there's a rumour that won't go away: Kerr wants to come to Melbourne to resume his association with former teammate and housemate Judd at Princes Park.

The rumour is gathering momentum. Carlton, predictably, is aware of it. So, too, Collingwood; maybe even Essendon.

While Kerr is contracted until after the 2009 season, players determined to go elsewhere have a healthy rate of success.

Not for mine, hed cost to much in terms of draft picks OR players. Richmond should just go to the draft and get more kids.

I'd be amazed if it happened, but I think Judd came cheap at pick 2 and Kennedy. Provided you have pick one up your sleeve as well   :banghead

Someone should tell him that Judd has a new flatmate.

As Ramps said too expensive in terms of draft picks.

It cost the Blues two picks 3 & 20 plus Kennedy. The Eagles used them on Masten and Notte. I wonder if the AFL will interfere again during trade week if Kerr wants to move  ::).

Would definitely take him if the price was right.

No  :thumbsup  breed our own to play our game style in the future.
we dont need any used players, they cant give us many years playing after thier body is battered from years of playing at the top.
Players burn out after many seasons & we would get nothing from kerr in a few years, we could be shunning a young kerr or judd out if we chased him & we need to keep fresh stock of KPP for years down the track

Hmm - close  ;D

Still a good deal though at 3, 20 and Kennedy - they will rebuild the club around it. Kerr not quite the same value off field.

The Blues would be faced with a moral dilemma (or what would be a dilemma to other sides).  Do we tank now to get the picks required to secure Kerr, or do we try and win and see where it takes us?

Firstly, one must have ethics to face any dilemma of morality.

In all cases carlscum DONT qualify.

He would be just what we need in terms of a player, adding more depth and quality to our shallow midfield. But he's too much of a twit and the price would be far too high.
