Welcome to the Tigers - Daniel Rioli

[French Tiger]

Going by Dimma's presser, a smug look on his face shows Dan's gone.

Trade denied just to wipe the smug away

 

[DavidSSS]

Surely after hearing the silence at the ground whenever the Suns did well Dan wouldn't want to play for a club with no fans.

Stay at Richmond Dan, play in front of big crowds and help us rebuild.

DS

 

[The_General]

What rubbish.

Agreed. That axe must be just a handle and a square stone about now.

 

[WesternTiger]

I think Yze has a lot to answer for if Dan leaves. Especially with Maurice at the club.

That makes no sense on any level.

 

[tigerdell]

He is contracted. But isnt it at solid half back rates? not necessarily the JDM and All Aus champion.
From the sounds of it the money offered is craycray ridiculous.
If he goes then its an offer too good to refuse

 

[Tigers of Old]

I'll be extremely unhappy if he goes.
Star player. Contracted for a long period. No family excuses.
There's just no reason for it.

Agree. It shouldn't be cash related either. Given state of our list we should be able to pay him plenty.

5 and 20. All the evidence of what you get was there today and has been all year and you will get 3 more years of that at least. Or *smile* off.

May as well blame the instagram girlly.

 

[tha8ball]

Should’ve pulled the trigger on him playing up the ground. Midfield/fwd. Wasted opportunity this year to see him in there imo.

 

[btoz_01]

He’s probably got $1,000,000 pa reasons to go to GC

rejig his contract and match it

 

[btoz_01]

rejig his contract and match it

Agree but is it just about the contract ?
I guess we’ll find out soon enough

 

[The Lurker]

2 picks under 10 or flick off, or Mac Andrew and 5. Daniel kicked 4 in a preliminary final and will be a Jack Dyer Medallist this year. Pay up, required player

 

[tigerdell]

I would look to rejig his contract.
If Shai goes we have the opening.
And then demand he leads the way for our cubs. Onfield and off field leader

We’ve definitely got the cap space to rejig that contract.

 

[TigerMasochist]

Couldn’t we make a deal on Rioli with the suns and on signing do a late minute sneaky switch and replace Dan with Short…..

Paint him black ya reckon. Guess with Mick Jagga maybe coming around soon there'd be something poetic about it. I see a white Short and I want to paint him black, no snowflake any more I want him to turn black.

There's just no reason for it.

One reason could be a lot of money. Another could be career change, or maybe even just lifestyle change. If he wants out, good luck, thanks for all the chocolates n see ya later. Supposedly been a professional industry for years now, yet some still think players should be under lock n chains coz we own them no matter what.

 

[Smoking Aces]

Same. Those with character hang around during the tough times.

And it ain’t about the money. Richmond has plenty.

 

[Tony Braxton-Hicks]

No need to rejig the contract. He's contracted.

Why's he looking north? Dimma > Yze. More tangible finals prospects. Money is just the bait.

If Yze wants him, keep him. Play him on ball as mentioned at the start of the year. And re-establish a culture of success.
