Schache kicked 27 goals in his last 7 VFL games including bags of 7,7 and 5. As a last spot low cost cover who could fill multiple roles if required I have heard worse ideas if Weid is traded out.

    Can you elaborate? Was it just some random caller? 

    Just a passing comment from Julian De Stoop in reference to Sam Edmund’s news that we’re looking at Schache.

    The only negative thing about Schache is he is no good at footy

    If we trade Weid it's worth a crack. 

    There's no other half decent key position players available and we've already said we are only using 2 draft picks plus I assume upgrading Chandler to the primary list.

    I'm also all for getting Hunter if it means we can delist Baker, he is horrid.

    I don't think what I said was anything everyone isn't thinking....

    Even at VFL level he looks ordinary.

    It follows then that if everyone is thinking it, you don't need to say it.  Aint the internet grand!

    Enter Schache.

    The world get [censored] sillier everyday!!!!!

    Sounds like It's a net zero. Casey will soon find out. He did have a few good games back but given Bulldogs lack in that area not sure he could slot in to free up Petty to go forward? Beverage seems to have his favorites so could be he was more deserving of a have than others. I'm not against it particularly if it costs us same or less than we get for Weideman

    Only time will tell I suppose but I won't be betting my lefty on him becoming a regular AFL feature.

    Lachie Hunter no hope to come to the Dees then?

    He was spotted at the Best and Fairest after party any truth to this?

    We owe it to Weid to let him explore his oportunities at the dons where he likely gets more looks in and schache can play the mb38 role for a year or two until the big fish lands

    Just there for the free booze perhaps? 

     

    I don't have an issue with Sache as cheap back filler. Essentially a Mitch Brown replacement. I just don't know why you'd trade Weideman for peanuts only to end up with an equally underwhelming option.

    Unless we think Weideman will leave next year and we will get even less than third round pick for him perhaps?

    Would prefer we take a chance on Jackson Callow.

    But if Clayton Oliver can teach his old mate Josh Schache a bit of "mongrel" then I am not against this option as a potential replacement for Sam Weideman.

    Anyway, let's see if Sam Weideman ends up at the Bombers first.

    I think he would be a good fit for us. Chocco is great at developing players and the attitude of our boys is incredibly professional, whereas a lot of the bulldogs players seem to be about that party lifestyle.

    If he would only cost us a late 3rd or late 4th round pick then why the heck not.

    Schache used to go to the school I worked at. He was not known for having a team first attitude. Was known for being a bit self involved.

    • The Clayton Oliver Thread

      Melbourne have held talks with Clayton Oliver and they’ve laid out where he fits in under Steve King’s vision and been frank about expectations. Oliver is still under contract for five years, but the door is open if he wants to explore his options elsewhere.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

      It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

      The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

      The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.
