Already a topic on the SC board

RICHMOND is strongly favoured to become the club of choice for Adelaide's free-agent forward, Chris Knights, who can walk to Punt Road without restriction.

Played just 5 games at an average of 49 this year. A move to richmond, good pre-season and price of 200-230k would mean he'd have to be under serious consideration for next year.

Would be interesting. Could he be the 'Ivan Maric' for 2013? If he plays injury free will be great for the Tigers.

lock if dpp

[tbagrocks]

should be m/f. when he plays SANFL for the Eagles he gets 30 possessions, he's a booming kick can't really understand why he's not playing AFL,
    would be useful for the Tigers and very cheep could be an option, what would the Tigers offer to get him?

we don't have to offer jack shower do we? since he's an unrestricted free agent?

the article says:

"the tigers have only to persuade Knights to sign a contract to have him in yellow and black next year."

"Knights can go to whichever club he wishes, without his club having the right to match the offer - because he is outside the Crows' top 25 per cent in salaries this year"

so looks like we just needa get him to sign on the dotted line!

the tigers bag yet another bargain from the crows! Maric last year, plus they accepted Tambling from us!! HAHAHA

I reckon its a 2 horse race between Port and Richmond, the media here have reported Knights is interested.

Adelaide will just get a compensation pick wont they?? :)

no offence but you'd think he'd choose to go to melbourne to a team on the cusp of finals rather than stay in adelaide where he is keen to escape from?

yeah true, I really dont see why we'd want him, but apparently hes interested.

[tbagrocks]

hold on I thought Knights was the second highest paid at Adelaide :o

[Nails]

If not already hopefully he and Tippett become best mates

Then they can come to the Lions together and then we'll win the premiership.

yeah @tbag i actually heard that too

i think it was in an article someone posted about tippett the other day... something like if tippet continues at adelaide he will become their highest paid player next year after knights' contract is out?

[Windigo]

Would be good for the tigers.  :D
