Who would you have JMac target this year?

Re: Who would you have JMac target this year?

If Cox was Australian no one would know who he is. Rubbish.

Cox has just about the worst hands in the VFL.

Cox is shocking when the ball hits the ground as well .

Cox is horrible when he doesn't have the ball too.

A health professional of mine had a son play all his juniors with Paddy was best friends with Paddy's parents. Now obviously she could not disclosure sensitive info, suffice to say his Diabetes is not even a remote concern for Paddy and playing football at any level. It's believed the it was started as a bad rumour at draft time to get him to slide past the first selection. But it didn't work.

With Riewoldt gone, surely he backs himself in to take that spot surely?

I'm pleased to hear his diabetes isn't impacting on his game. For a lot of sportspeople it saps their energy with their sugar levels affected.

Yes, with velvet trousers gone there a spot to develop in.

I reckon we get nickels on the dollar for Aaron Francis. Throw up a second pick and see what they say. There's not enough bust-trading in the AFL.

Remind me, who's Aaron Francis play for?

We have no TV at my new flat, so we're only watching DVDs; I'm complaining about a lack of big bodies inside the midfield, but this dude in the #46 in our elimination final looks pretty promising.

What makes a top 10 pick from 2 years ago so cheap? Is he that bad in the VFL? Seems a bit early for the cheats to be looking to cash out on a tall(ish?) player

Has a similar tank to Liam jones, is a natural footballer though.

Good suggestion - a real natural forward. Looks a genuine talent, but his tank must be pretty ordinary given the few games at senior level that he's played.

Seems unlikely that Essendope would trade him but we should be in his ear - particularly if he's uncontracted.

No tank, would blow up at AFL level.

JOSH Schache will finish his season a week early after the Brisbane Lions granted him permission to skip Saturday's NEAFL Grand Final against the Sydney Swans.

Schache, 20, missed Saturday's preliminary final victory and then asked the club for the early finish to his year after a mentally draining season.

He will drive back to his home in Seymour in country Victoria early this week.

The Lions have been mindful of Schache's struggles this year, allowing him to return home mid-season during the height of speculation surrounding his future.

The young key forward returned to Brisbane and recommitted for a further two years and is happy with the club.

There is no suggestion he wants to leave.

After a strong first season, Schache has battled with form in 2017, playing 10 games and kicking nine goals at senior level, and being dropped to the reserves twice.

The Lions will play the Swans in the NEAFL decider at the SCG as a curtain-closer to the Swans-Bombers elimination final.

Strange for mine...

It's interesting. I know its Brian Waldron but he did mention us and Schache last week. Brett Anderson (normally reliable and doesn't make up stuff) also said there's still a bit to play out with Schache. Probably nothing in it but we can always hope

Not to stir things up but did we cool on Lever because we got Schache to commit?

Could be interesting going on the various/numerous rumour mills...

Dogs: Schache, Martin & Rockliff (FA), Pick 18 & 41
Lions: Pick 2 (FA), Pick 9 & 26 & 39, plus Crameri (plus any extra draft points we can acquire, or we'd lose the Pick 41)

Lions: Picks 1, 2, 9, 14, 26, 39 with Callenden an academy pick, plus Crameri (Honey or Hamilton if they wanted them)
Dogs: KPF, Ruck, classy midfielder - Pick 18 getting a solid defender or mid. Pick 41 then no picks inside 80 though. Rookie upgrades?

Trade period over.
