The key to a bloke like this is understanding what his impediments are and whether they can be removed.

It seems that most clubs think they can't at this point.

    You might get him for a steal and he turn out a good player or you might get him and he offers up more of the same.

    Throw a second round pick at them. See what happens, maybe they can take Chris Dawes. Oh wait!

    I agree, what could go wrong?

    Seems like no clubs want Josh.

    Oh well, I do, but I am not a club.

    I think it is actually far lower than you think.

    Deal could be done for a 2nd rounder and we have 3 of them.

    I have my doubts too. A club would have pulled the trigger by now if he was going that cheap.

    Brisbane fans, however ignorantly, are demanding 6-12. So it's probably around 10-15 IMO. They're probably drawing the line one pick before Richmond if those rumours are true that the tigers tanked his value by feeding stories to the media about him.

    Why?

    He would have been a good back up to Hogan if he decided to go back home, seeing as this is the new thing in AFL these days. And Weeds does not come on as a player.

    Personally feel Schache would have a different mind set once back home in VIC, he would feel more at ease and comfortable and have the ability to focus on his footy 100%.

    Also, I would personally feel better taking the risk on a home sick former pick 2 from a couple of years ago than on a pick 29 or 31 in a supposed weak draft.

    That's my opinion.

    I think with Weed & Tmac we are well covered...and who says we're not into Lynch for next year if Jesse heads home.

    We will have cap space and picks to burn to cover if it happens...

    Weed hits the ball up hard and tackles, why do we need a soft lead up forward?

    He's more likely to make it than Schache

    Bulldogs did well to land him. He's a pick 2. Obviously a big talent. Get him back to Victoria where he is around family and friends and is comfortable again and he will blossom. Trading 2nd round picks in a weak draft is easily worth that risk.

    As I said. Disappointed we didn't take the gamble. Could be a steal or a bust.

    • A trade that may come back and bite us (though not our trade)
    • I think BEv's will sort him out, though the rest of the kennel looks sus!

    Doggies did well to get him for what they did, but I don't see much need for him from our perspective.  Lever coming in to play at CHB means we have not only enough coverage in the forward line, but we already have two young prospects (Hogan and Weideman) coming through as it is.

    Agree Wise we don't need another Weid.

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      One of the big stories of the AFL off-season was the spending spree of Melbourne’s Round 1 opponent, St Kilda. They splashed out heavily, first to retain Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera - the hero of last year’s epic come-from-behind miracle victory -turning him into a $2 million man. They then effectively took out an expensive overdraft to recruit a string of expensive players from other clubs. It was a risky investment strategy and, although it’s still early days, it certainly failed to pay off in Sunday’s season opener, with much of the glitter turning to fool’s gold.
