I'm not talking about him taking a playing spot of those already on our list . I'm talking about the spot he takes on our list. I would rather have the option to draft a potential future player than retain McGuane. The odds of geting a good player are low but are no lower than expecting us to make finals and be contenders with McGuane playing senior football. This depth/big body/hard trainer/insurance stuff is complete bunkum IMO.
Richmond's talls:
Jack Riewoldt (genius tall but bludges)
Alex Rance (average overhead after he improved but honest)
Dylan Grimes (could be anything but injury prone and 67kg. Not a tall.)
Tyrone Vickey (63kg but his dad is a boxing coach)
Ben Griffiths (skinny, learning FB because he can't get a kick and cautious in the air when he's not knocking himself out)
Jayden Post (leper)
Luke McGuane (aerially dominant back who is hilarious with the ball)
Todd Elton (potential genius who jumps clean over Jack but is timid at the level)
Tom Derrickx (played key back. Was he involved in losing a game due to lack of ability/experience? And is he 25? Srsly.)
Keeping McGuane is where we're at. For now. Looking at that list of talls where would Chaplin fit? Why would we be interested in him?

Muscles is listed as a restricted free agent.
For any visiting supporters interested in Luke's ability:
- extremely versatile key position tall
- superior abilities in the air
- swing man - think Adam Hunter finals performances
- a grade decision making abilities
- coordinated
- capable of kicking 3-4 goals a game
- umpire favorite
- imposing physique
Will not come cheap, you will probably need to bid at least 550k a year for minimum 4 years to outbid tigers. Alternatively to avoid a bidding war you could try a trade for minimum of a top 15 pick. Supporters however will likely go into meltdown to see one of our favorite players go (we are a fickle lot)
Ps don't be mislead by the previous 97 pages of vitriolic hate

Exactly right TF2008. He's a legend in the making and would be sad to see him go. He could be a great player up at GC and Brisbane. Yeah sad to see him go....yeah. Superstar power forward.....yeah sad to see him go yeah....
Because of our free agency raid we can forget about compensation if mcguane goes free agency. We may as well delist him.
