Poor Schache.  He's been a Demon for five minutes and has already assumed the mantle of whipping boy.

Let's reserve judgement until we see how he goes next year.

Rubbish!

It started when the proposal was first raised. No one gets 5 minutes start here.  😁

    We've traded Coke for Pepsi.

    Depending on the day, who you're talking to, and the water purity in the region, the value could go either way

     

    I'd say this is more a RC Cola for LA Ice kinda deal.

    1. Getting more possessions than the Weid could ever imagine without half-heartedness and preservation imperatives.

    2. Usefully leading for the ball in multiple directions - his kicking is terrific from all angles.

    3. Taking the odd mark in the danger zone with 'thinking' teammates doing their best to block/occupy/negate opponents.

    4. Scoring a few more than Weid could ever accomplish.

    5. Staying in the critical zone for effective responses - not running out of the way of potential harm, nor standing still to keep 'safe'.

    6. Bringing the ball to ground for the smalls' skillsets.

    and when did Schache do any of the above examples?

    They may have him earmarked for that third tall back spot if Petty goes forward

    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. 

    Not many blokes do benefit from high balls. Lower the eyes, lower the passing, I say.

    They never stopped complaining about Weidemann - until he apparently became a potentially champion ruckman (all of a sudden).

    I have low expectations but you never know. Depth acquisition. Cost peanuts so no need for posters to get worked up

    best of luck Josh

    Given our draft hand for next year we'll never use a future 4th so the cost is nothing and he replaces a player that got us pick 37.  Most don't rate either.  Good trading I say.

    Spot on. Good deal for Weidemann.

    Wild idea, maybe he flourishes at the dees and we get behind him to do so!

    I lean towards SWYL's thinking on this bloke.  At least I won't have to worry about him living up to my expectations as I have none. 

    Would rather have kept the Weed. At least he knows the game plan 

    It's changing so Josh can learn the brand new 2023 fast paced and quick running with ball movement so a busy Xmas for Josh.

    All those people who said our team would have fired if we still had Watts up forward this is your chance to shine with a similar player.

    And I bet he will be on a less coin? Could be wrong tho.

    Spot on I reckon Jaded.  He was OOC and would be on base plus incentives.  Sam would have been on more, perhaps not much, but more.

    For an MFC career that has lasted 5 minutes he's still done better than most!

    If we're losing Weideman then we need some form of forward tall depth.

    yes But he is worse that the Weid Whats to be gained

    We'll stand a much better chance with a forward coach who knows what they're doing!

    pick 37 is okay but Schache is not. The recruiters must have dropped some mean acid this morning for brekky. Bizarre beyond belief.

    Where is Cale Morton ?

    No he is a F4th , we still have 37 up our sleeve, he has cost us nothing and we picked up 37 for Weid.

    I read that Schache is 200cm and turned 25 in August.
    Big men take longer to hit their potential.

    Schache will be good for us.

    That is genuinely funny. The lack of eye contact is the give-away.

    Happy to back the FD in on this, they really rated him by the sound of it.

    • PREGAME: Sydney

      Just a game and percentage outside the Top 8, the Demons return to Melbourne to face the Sydney Swans at the MCG, with a golden opportunity to build on the momentum from toppling the reigning premiers on their own turf. Who comes in, and who makes way?

    • GAMEDAY: Brisbane

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons are back on the road with a massive challenge ahead — facing the reigning premiers, the Brisbane Lions, at their Gabba fortress. The Lions are licking their wounds after a shock draw in Tasmania last week, while Melbourne’s season hangs in the balance. Can the Dees defy the odds and pull off a miracle to keep their razor thin finals hopes alive?

    • NON-MFC: Round 10

      The Sir Doug Nicholls Round kicks off in Darwin with a Top 4 clash between the Suns and the Hawks. On Friday night the Swans will be seeking to rebound from a challenging start to the season, while the Blues have the Top 8 in their sights after their sluggish start. Saturdays matches kick off with a blockbuster between the Collingwood and Kuwarna with the Magpies looking to maintain their strong form and the Crows aiming to make a statement on the road. The Power face a difficult task to revive their season against a resilient Cats side looking to make amends for their narrow loss last week. The Giants aim to reinforce their top-eight status, while the Dockers will be looking to break the travel hoodoo. The sole Saturday game is a critical matchup for both teams, as the Bulldogs strive to cemet their spot in the top six and the Bombers desperately want break into the 8. Sundays start with a bottom 3 clash between the Tigers and Kangaroos with both teams wanting to avoid the being in wooden spoon contention. The Round concludes with the Eagles still searching for their first win of the season, while the Saints look to keep their finals hopes alive with a crucial away victory. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?
