As someone that does part time work with the Bushies and seen numerous games live i find this comment laughable. Like every player in the draft he has faults but a very driven individual and thirst to get the absolute best out of himself. A humble kid from a great family i see Schache having much higher upside then Tom Boyd, has enormous potential. Brisbane have snared a future power forward of the competition.

Howe + pick 5 for pick 3 and a 3rd round selection and its a done deal!

Agree, we forget how good Trengove was. I remember at the time thinking i was watching a young Nathan Buckley..If he can recapture that form we will play finals.

Jimmy has done a medical and fitness test with Port.

As a young side starved of success we need all the leaders we can get. There were games this year where our leaders went completely missing when we needed them. Its also not just about on field but most important off field aswell eg training standards, work ethic and dicipline etc. Gotta continue to drive and create a culture that will scream success. Whitecross wouldn't be a bad option at all considering he has come from one of the best teams of the modern era he just would be a handy depth player. Id much rather him then Adcock.

And who was that may i ask?

Sheeeesh tough crowd! I am only going by highlights (which majority of hypocrites do here) and personally i thought he was similar to Jay Kennedy-Harris where while he has pace he is not the explosive small forward like a Garlett or Betts. If we picked him up of course i wouldn't be disappointed but if rumours are true and we pick up Kennedy, that will be Garlett, Kennedy, Kent, JKH and Rioli who will be all under 180cm and vying for a small forward role. I think if we bring in Kennedy that should do for now in terms of small forward options.

Doesn't look overly quick to be honest and no sign of defensive pressure. Its a pass for me.

Freo now officially in the race for Howe. This could get interesting.

What i got from that was the typical one eye demon supporters that continue to harrass and troll these players.

Hopefully not a tagger. Bring him in and tell him to play on instinct. Looking at his under 18s game he does show alot of serious potential as an attacking mid. I personally think Essendon have tried to turn him into a player he is not. I hope he starts racking up big numbers in the midfield because for us to move forward its guys like Melksham that needs to go up a gear.

Its laughable the two comparisons with Vince and Melksham. Vince actually had done something noteworthy in his career before coming to us, winning a best and fairest and being in the All Australian nomination. Not only that, he proved he was a noted ball winner aswell. In his 114 afl career Melksham has averaged 16 disposals and not once in his career has he ever hit the 30 disposal mark. For a midfielder thats played that many games and 24 years old thats a poor effort. He would wanna put in a big pre season this summer pull his finger out because we are currently the laughing stock of the AFL for picking him up on a 4 year deal work 400k a year.. Goody and Mcartney need to nail this one.

Poor disposal and decision make. Very inconsistent.

Funny that. Was speaking to a St Kilda country recruiter who scouts all the kids up the bush and we were at a Murray Bushrangers game and we got on the topic of list comparison and he mentioned that Hawthorn rated Salem a genuine top 3 selection in the 2013 draft. If they had pick 2 they would have called Salem out. He just fitted the bill for Hawthorn. Left footy who is tough and courageous in the same mould as you.. you guessed Luke Hodge. What makes it more exciting is Hawthorn think he enormous upside more then Kelly and even Jack Billings.

Tyson 187cmBrayshaw 187cm Salem 185cm Trengove 185cm Vandenberg 188cm Petracca 186cm Vince 187cm Michie 185cm Melksham 185cm Harmes 185cm Nothing wrong with our midfield height at all. Infact i would say these guys are all solid mature bodies that Roos particular likes. Go look at Hawthorn and they aren't a big midfield either.

Absolutely. My tip though is he will end up at Carlton or WC..

Prestia is back in Gold Coast doing his Pre season program at the suns gym facilities which is why it makes me think Prestia wont leave at all this year.

Trengove maybe?

FWIW they are replaying the Essendon v Sydney game from round 1 this year where Bumbers come from behind win. 20 disposals 1 goal and 9 tackles so im gonna watch with interest and see what we have on our hands. Looks to be tagging Hannerbry.

Your better then that.. your borderline being another Dee-luded.

Lol how cute.. id love to play the role of match maker for you two but i don't deal with pheasants.

I could have told you that you know.

Mate time to give it a rest now.. He aint going nowhere.

Because sydney aren't stupid enough to do that.

No it can't
