I would really like to get Schache, but I think its more a trade for the future not next year. He will take time to develop into having anything like Hookers presence fwd. Unfortunately I don’t think we will have the luxury of placing Hooker back until Schache is good enough to take his role fwd.
Glad that the club sees Schache as a key target. And to be fair whilst not as good a player as Watts, Mitch Brown does a very good job when fit as 3rd tall intercept defender.
I’m probably not very good at this but what do people think of the below?
Stringer: pick 11 - I think pick 6 for Aaron Francis is still a good chance to be okay, I wouldn’t mind Stringer at pick 11 by comparison.
Schache: next years first rounder sounds okay to me - but would we need to offer one of our third tall forwards or backs too? - I don’t want to but would we have to?
Saad - pick 28? - considering what we got for Melk and Pig.
Can we still have ago at Matthew Kennedy? That would take a player and maybe some lower picks to get some points for academy picks.
To do the necessary drafting we might get away with promoting Long and Draper and using a low pick on a VFL player.
saad is no surprise as I’ve said before we are also searching for another player of this type and Adrian has been an admirer of him from
When he played at coburg.
Maybe from being the first team to get one of their top 10 picks to ask for a trade while under contract? I don’t imagine that made us popular, even though we failed at it.
