Could Richmond be doing a Collingwood but x 2? The treloar thing didn't go to plan for us. If you believe the media the Grundy one hasn't either. 7 years is nuts for two midfielder.

Aaron Francis has apparently nominated Port
Christ 2 of them, I mean do r get me wrong they are both really good players but how are Richmond looking to land them?
Francis is an interesting one Jim. I also thought he was a good talent, what has happened to him?
Mental health issues Being played out of position A touch lazy Playing group loves him and he shows glimpses from time to time but just can’t string consistent games together. A change of club May flick the switch and he is still only 25

Both talented and shouldn't come with a high price tag.
I'm not sure what the "risk" would be, you pick your list of 40 odd, you have your rookies and then a mid-season draft if you need top ups, you pick your squads accordingly and have sufficient back up for all areas.

Because of their draft picks? Both massive underachievers for many reasons (some out of their control).

I don't disagree with you and personally I wouldn't take either, Kenny doesn't mind taking a punt though, some work, some don't.

Francis will cost pretty much nothing. Will be a free hit
