    Worth no higher than a 2nd round pick and that's being generous.

      This guy played a pretty good game against us in Rnd 19.

      Perhaps they're looking at him as a fullback to free up Leo?

        Richards at 22 and and 194-centimetre defender played one of his better games of a season against us.

        I agree he might do a craig bolton and become a mobile full back? Comes from good football stock and has completed his apprenticeship. Make or break time for him. I would risk him.

          Would want to bulk up a little to be full-back.

          Certainly not worth pick 19.
          We hate Anthony Rocca
          We hate Shannon Grant too
          We hate scumbag Gaspar

              Agree, and why do clubs fall for the old 1 good game he played was against us trick.

                With Sheady's history of player treatment, I don't know why anyone would want to play for them.

                Look at Blumfield. He would still have an AFL career if it wasn't for Sheady.

                Unless a player is near retirement, you'd be crazy to want to go there as a young player.

                If the McVeigh rumours are right, I'd let him go for a top 10 pick to Sheady. Although I'd prefer he stays and his brother stays down south.

                  This is THE rule of trade week.


                  Could be worse though. They could be considering Courtney Johns. FMD there has not been a bigger dud on an SNDon list since Ryan O'Connor.

                    Who would be better Richards or Powell ?

                    With 5 retirements - do we need to trade at all ?

                      He?s not that bad. ?Played some excellent games at FB in the absence of Fletcher last year, but this season looks like he?s lost his spot to K. Bradley (who isn't any better IMO). Very good height for a KP, and seems to get bulkier every year. Can play back, forward or pinch-hit in the ruck. At 22, I see him in the same vein as Jolly (or LRT for that matter) ? needs game time to shine.

                      It?s not like Essendon are shopping him around -- he wants to leave them. This ain?t another Bomford. If it were Henneman, I?d be screaming along with Reggie.

                      Second rounder + Powell. Sheedy loves those ?no regard for personal safety? types.

                        I've seen him play some good games, so he's not a complete hack, but I'm unsure as to what he's worth.

                          O'Connoe was de-listed, and we picked him up the the draft.

                          Richards IMO is a much better prospect than Powell.

                              Trade updates

                              Listening to SEN over the net. Compliments of public holiday here in NSW.

                              They spoke to some coaches entering before the 10:30 am start.

                              Roos said that he confirmed that Saddington and Powell both want to leave. He will talk to Hawthorn about Spida.

                              I'd be happy if this was the deal for Spida. Although we'll probably lose our first pick somewhere along the line.

                                Ted Richards Coming to Swans?

                                Richards quits Dons

                                Richards met the Bulldogs last Tuesday and is believed to have recently been flown to Sydney by the Swans, against whom the 194-centimetre defender played one of his better games of a season that amounted to 10 appearances. Despite a late flourish to the year, Richards did not play a match between rounds six and 16, and has played only 33 matches in the four seasons since his debut in 2002.

                                The clubs interested in Richards have been told that a first-round draft pick will be required to get a deal done but Essendon may have to accept a second-round pick unless Sydney is prepared to part with its first pick, the last of the first round at selection 19. It is understood the Bulldogs are not prepared to consider their first pick, selection 11, as part of a deal for Richards.
                                Personally I'd like him. He is young, tall, and skillful. Not worth more than a second round pick though. I mean the Dons only played him for 10 games this year FFS!
