    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      From the start, Melbourne’s performance against the Gold Coast Suns at Peoples First Stadium was nothing short of a massive botch up and it came down in the first instance to poor preparation. Rather than adequately preparing the team for battle against an opponent potentially on the skids after suffering three consecutive losses, the Demons looking anything but sharp and ready to play in the opening minutes of the game. By way of contrast, the Suns demonstrated a clear sense of purpose and will to win. From the very first bounce of the ball they were back to where they left off earlier in the season in Round Three when the teams met at the MCG. They ran rings around the Demons and finished the game off with a dominant six goal final term. This time, they produced another dominant quarter to start the game, restricting Melbourne to a solitary point to lead by six goals at the first break, by which time, the game was all but over.

    • CASEY: Gold Coast

      Coming off four consecutive victories and with a team filled with 17 AFL listed players, the Casey Demons took to their early morning encounter with the lowly Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium with the swagger of a team that thought a win was inevitable. They were smashing it for the first twenty minutes of the game after Tom Fullarton booted the first two goals but they then descended into an abyss of frustrating poor form and lackadaisical effort that saw the swagger and the early arrogance disappear by quarter time when their lead was overtaken by a more intense and committed opponent. The Suns continued to apply the pressure in the second quarter and got out to a three goal lead in mid term before the Demons fought back. A late goal to the home side before the half time bell saw them ten points up at the break and another surge in the third quarter saw them comfortably up with a 23 point lead at the final break.

    • POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

      The Demons did not come to play from the opening bounce and let the Gold Coast kick the first 5 goals of the match. They then outscored the Suns for the next 3 quarters but it was too little too late and their season is now effectively over.

      It's Game Day and the Demons are back on the road again and this may be the last roll of the dice to get their 2025 season back on track as they take on the Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium.
