RICHMOND premiership player Jacob Townsend will be seeking a trade during this year's NAB AFL Trade Period, reports AFL.com.au's Damian Barrett.
Townsend, who kicked two goals in Richmond's 2017 Grand Final victory over Adelaide, managed only 10 games this season.
Speaking on NAB AFL Trade Radio, Barrett believes St Kilda could be Townsend's new club in 2019.

"(Townsend) will be seeking a new footy home and it's St Kilda, that I've been told this week is showing significant interest in him," Barrett said.
"There's a meeting teed up for that to be thrashed out and potentially a move to the St Kilda Football Club.
"But there are other clubs interested in him."
Essendon great Matthew Lloyd, on air with Barrett, said the Suns were also keen on the Tigers' forward.
"The Gold Coast Suns will also look to meet with Townsend, if they haven't met with him already," Lloyd said.
