Might be bluffing to get a better deal.

I think we have played this beautifully.
Don't be surprised if Schache signals his interest of getting traded to us. Contracted players shouldn't be able to nominate, but it would help us get the deal we want.

Brisbane Lions agree trade deal for homesick Josh Schache

Brisbane Lions and young forward Josh Schache have agreed to seek a trade deal to return the homesick player to Victoria.

The Lions met with Schache late last week and, sensing he was still homesick despite having signed a new two year contract mid-year, raised the possibility of a trade. The player agreed he'd prefer to move if it could be worked out.

Football manager David Noble met with the 20-year-old former number two draft pick and his manager Dave Trotter last week after Schache returned from a family holiday.

Noble said the club was mindful that in Schache's case the discussion of his future would continue among Victorian clubs over the next two years, and so they made the offer to trade knowing he was still battling homesickness after a difficult year in Brisbane.

The Lions allowed Schache to travel home to country Victoria early at the end of the season. After returning, the young key forward realised how much he missed his family network. That feeling was reinforced on his recent family holiday.

"I met with Josh and Trotts and asked if he felt settled, and offered the option of a return if an opportunity arose in the trade period", Noble said.

Trotter said it was a mutually agreed decision and not pushed by either party. He said Schache was prepared to remain in Brisbane if a deal couldn't be done. Schache has not nominated a preferred destination club.

"Josh has not walked out and neither is he being pushed out. We had a discussion and agreed if something can work out for both parties then we are open to it. If not, Josh is contracted and will return to Brisbane," Trotter said.

"Josh re-signed earlier in the year because he wanted to do the right thing by Brisbane and to end the speculation around him because there was intense pressure on him at the time and he thought the best thing would be to give it another two years and try to work through it."

He said Brisbane had been open and honest throughout and had understood Schache had tried to make it work in Brisbane, but was struggling and a move home might be better for both parties.

Schache could be a similar case to Jared Polec who was homesick in Brisbane and struggled to find on-field form, but improved once he returned home to play for Port Adelaide.

It's likely there will be plenty in interest in a trade for the 20-year-old, as he was taken with pick two in the 2015 draft and has played 27 games with the Lions in two seasons. He had a good first season but battled for form in his second year.

The Lions would be expected to seek a late first round pick or player as a trade for the 199cm forward.

Richmond had been interested in adding a key forward and had monitored Schache this year. They had informal discussions with Brisbane about players, including Schache, late in the year.

Richmond has two late first round draft picks while father son prospect Patrick Naish is likely to require an early pick.

Football and talent manager Dan Richardson said late this year that he doubted the club would pursue Schache.

"I think our focus this year will be predominantly to retain our two first-round picks," Richardson told SEN.

"We have two first round picks, and we have an opportunity, hopefully, with a father-son prospect in Patrick Naish.

"There are a few balls in the air there in terms of what we do. I'd imagine at this point, we are pretty comfortable retaining our picks in this year's draft."

Those comments were made prior to Brisbane and Schache agreeing to look for a trade.

Collingwood and Carlton have both been interested in Schache but it is uncertain what their positions are now.

For Brisbane, Eric Hipwood has emerged quickly as a bright young star in their forward line, and the Lions are likely to procure highly-rated key forward Connor Ballenden as an academy player who would otherwise go top 10 in the draft.

the bears will want to deal with carlspoon or colonwood cos they have better pics

I don't see Collingwood or Carlton using their first round picks on him. Especially in the positions they are in list wise. It's risky for developing clubs, but I think we can wear the risk a little bit.
Jack will be his mentor.
Leppa (fwd coach) has a strong bond with the kid.

nah lazy dud using homesick excuse will **** over our mental game
 
I agree with most of your post TI

Speed, tick
Pressure, tick
Strong and tackle, tick

Can take a grab, half tick.....all of his other attributes are grouse, but he is just not a one grab player (yet), and much worse at ground level. Not clean enough for my liking. But I think his other qualities make him a hold at this stage, no dramas.

And as far as trade value goes, premiership player means diddly squat to me. Aaron Shattock is a premiership player.....
Still my point is EJW he’s been our best small all year. He presented all year and played his role { cliche) all year. He will be surpassed eventually and wash your mouth out a RFC premiership player is pretty valuable after 37 years.

Have faith young padawan. Our culture will turn him around.
The dynasty is being built.

No one will pay that though. I think we are still up to our ears in this one.

I doubt anyone will either and you may well be right.

Based on that article though, which says both parties are happy to trade if a suitable one is done, otherwise he stays at brisbane no dramas, means they might have just said if we can get a top 10 pick for you then you can go, otherwise you are staying. Also mentions that we had late season discussions with Brissy regarding him, seemingly around the time our interest cooled. Maybe we were told he was available but the cost was a top 10 pick.

All speculation, I absolutely hope we can get him for 15 or 17, but I absolutely understand why any Brisbane person would loathe to give up a contacted former 2 pick after just two years for anything less than a top 10 pick. Hopefully we get a t71 update soon to give us a bit of solid intel.

He said he will give us one today (Monday), keen to see what he says.

He isn’t lazy. Low risk moves such as this, I mean it’s only pick 17 are the sort of luxuries a premiership team can more then afford to do.
 
Now to try and sleep, but I'm excited about the Schache developments.

yes he is. would be a terrible pick up. at least he'd only be affecting the mental game of the vfl side tho
 
#17 should get this done , Would be happy with that as a trade

Brisbane will want #15 but we cant risk a bid on Naish so it will have to be #17 and brisbane dont bid #12 on naish agreement which then leaves only 13 live picks that could bid.

Schache ,Brander,Naish ............. Wow

Literally the only issue is he hates living alone in Brisbane. His personal issues cease to exist with a move back to Victoria.
