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. 

he'll be coming into a side that lost one game for the entire year!

this is casey's tom lynch / jeremy cameron moment

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.

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!

Exit Weid.

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.

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

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

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.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
