What’s Shai Bolton value?
Been listening to this and that about what Shai Bolton is value. As a Richmond fan, I feel he is an immensely proficient participant in all probability value 2 firsts, however I’ve come throughout others saying he is value choose 10 at finest, what are your predictions for the way this deal will play out?
– Reggie Pizza
Hello Reggie!
To this point it has been Fremantle that is been linked probably the most with Shai Bolton.
The Dockers have picks 10 and 11 and the latest experiences appear to point that they will package deal the 2 as much as ship to Richmond in a deal for Bolton.
I would say that is a fairly truthful end result for each events.
Suns underneath the gun over reported commerce for Daniel Rioli
Daniel Rioli has requested a transfer to the Gold Coast Suns, and up to now experiences point out they will give their earliest first-rounder, No.6, to Richmond in that deal.
Kane Cornes does not suppose that is a value that appears applicable.
“Now we have cried and sooked and moaned about Josh Battle giving St Kilda choose 8, however we aren’t speaking in regards to the reality individuals suppose Dan Rioli, who’s 27 years outdated, being value choose 6,” he instructed AFL Commerce Radio.
“Why is there not an outcry on this one? This could be probably the most irresponsible commerce since Jack Bowes.”
It is definitely an fascinating level Cornes makes. Rioli had a superb season with Richmond, averaging 23.3 touches in 23 appearances this season.
However is it sensible to surrender such a prized draft asset for a participant who performs one of the vital replaceable positions within the sport? I am not too positive.
The push to beat Tasmania!
Hey Chris. I really like your running a blog.
I am actually fascinated about Richmond, WC and North.
They’re presently the bottom groups attempting to climb up the ladder. With Tassie coming in quickly, they’ll get a HEAP of draft picks in future drafts.
Which of those groups do you suppose can rebuild shortly earlier than Tassie will get all of the draft picks?
– Francis
Hey Francis, thanks on your sort phrases!
You’ve got undoubtedly obtained a very good level about attempting to beat Tasmania’s entry.
Groups know that the draft will get diluted for a number of years in direction of the top of the last decade, and it is in all probability driving loads of decision-making now.
I am actually excessive on North Melbourne. They have been far more aggressive after the bye and are actually including a bunch of veterans corresponding to Jack Darling and Luke Parker, who’ve been in successful environments.
The trio of Harry Sheezel, George Wardlaw and Colby McKercher is ELITE, they usually’ve obtained a prime ahead in Nick Larkey as nicely.
It would not shock me one bit in the event that they do a Hawthorn and climb up the ladder quickly in 2025.
‘Nobody trusts you’: Matthew Lloyd’s harsh fact to Jake Stringer
Jake Stringer looms as one of many large names who may transfer right now.
Stringer has a contract subsequent yr at Essendon, who’ve refused to budge on giving him an additional yr he wants.
The 30-year-old has met with the Giants and by all accounts a transfer may occur right now.
Stringer’s camp has shopped him across the competitors, and the curiosity in him has been missing to say the least.
Essendon legend Matthew Lloyd mentioned it was an indicator of the extent of belief surrounding Stringer.
“I see gamers who’ve nowhere close to the power of Jake Stringer who get two, three, four-years,” Lloyd instructed 3AW.
“I have a look at guys like Jack Graham, Alex Neal-Bullen, they do not have the expertise of Jake Stringer.
“That is the place Jake wants to have the ability to have individuals inform him that, whether or not it is his administration or individuals round him saying, ‘You must have one other three years left on this sport’.
“Try to be receiving a two-year deal on good cash, as a result of there’s not many gamers who kick 42 objectives on this sport, however due to your inconsistency each on the sphere and off the sphere, I presume, nobody trusts you.
“There may be not the belief in you that folks need to have, and even your individual membership does not have it in the meanwhile.
“The Bombers needs to be giving him two years, however they need to maintain him hungry, or they would like that he finds one other membership.
“The Bombers internally would not be fussed. They in all probability hope he finds one other membership. which is telling them that he hasn’t obtained it proper once more, even at this age.”
