I think your over rating Weiderman

Wikipedia is saying Schache is a Melbourne Demon. Also saying Weidemann is a Bomber. Schache has played 69 games for 77 games, Weidemann 59 games for 62 goals.

 

Trade radio saying Lamb and Dogs signing off now.

Pick 13 turns in to a KPF afterall......


Future 4th rd.

I know what I’d prefer

True, i agree value wise,

But on field production is an entierly different arguement.

In an ideal world with no injuries, not sure either would crack our best 22 (regularly) but we'll see. 


Is Schache better or worse than Weid - the answer is neither.

Is pick 37 better than 54,72 & future 70s pick - for sure.

So, if Schache is on a lot less coin than Weid, which I suspect, this is a pretty handy trade, it's no world beater but a shrewd piece of trading.

Not at all, that's how much I rate Schache

  • Demonland changed the title to Welcom to Demonland Josh Schache

I thought this was a bad dream. But it is going to happen 

Schache is as soft as heated butter. 
He must be on a heap less money than Weid, that can be the only motivation for this. The ultimate steak knives dealing 

Big difference here is the dogs are stacked for forwards. While we are devoid for forwards and weid could never get a game. Came cheap and has a role he can immediately fill. 

I wish the same for Josh as I did for Sam. 
Get it right above the ears and let’s see how he goes. 

  • Whispering_Jack changed the title to Welcome to Demonland Josh Schache

18 games between 2020 - 2022 is hardly a massive endorsement but won rave reviews for his round 19 game against us at the G in 2021 playing as a defender.

A sufficient replacement for Weid.

Downgrade of Weideman.

Status quo maybe. 
 

Maybe the change to our forward half game could result in a dramatic improvement?

Weids certainly couldn’t benefit from our high balls.

I’m not saying it will happen but softness is one thing you can fix. Schache was a baby at Brisbane and traded to the Dogs before he really failed. 

He’s now failed at the dogs and genuinely on his last chance.

Have no idea if this will come to fruition or even come out in the media and I put it down to pure speculation.

Was just having coffee with a few mates who I hadn't seen for a while and one of them is heavily involved with the Murray Bushrangers under 18's as a development coach.

We were speaking about the junior talent and then got talking about this year's trade period.

Out of the blue he mentioned that apparently we've shown some interest in Josh Schache and have had chats to Josh and his management? 

I would like to think I can trust his word purely that he's got contacts within recruiting circles and Josh being an ex bushie.

I have own opinion on this and I honestly don't think it's the right fit even though we're lacking a key forward.

I now owe him a box of Northerns....

  • REPORT: Port Adelaide

    Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

  • CASEY: Essendon

    Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

  • PREGAME: Gold Coast

    The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

  • POSTGAME: Port Adelaide

    The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
