Russell has every opportunity to find a solid niche as an AFL player - he has the ability, he will get another season on the list. The answer is in his head. Don't forget he played some fine games early season.
Maybe he needs to move clubs?
Maybe it would be best for Carlton and JR if he was allowed to show his worth before the end of the season, and if he can show that he's a part of Carlton's future, then great, if not, then maybe we can get a decent pick for him.
I think he's had a very good year this year, and a lot of people are very quick to jump on his mistakes and are reluctant to give him credit for his improvement.
Not sure if it's realistically possible to get a good pick for him now that draft picks will be more scarce, I think that boat has sailed.
Probably only a deal sweetener these days - more upside staying at Carlton and getting his head together, still might have potential
