Because Brisbane specifically told him even if he wasn’t happy sign now and if your still unhappy later on we will explore trade options and be more willing to facilitate a trade. Hasn’t gone back on his word

Then what is the point of the contract then?

Here's why ... who the hell says he wants out of Brisbane for months, then signs new multi-year deal, and decides another month later he wants out again??? Irrational behaviour and you have to seriously question where his head is at.
And .... he made himself unavailable for the NEAFL grand final. Seriously? We had blokes at Tigerland falling over themselves to get a senior grand final sport - and even reserves grand final spot - yet this guy is above that.
We are in a position now where we don't have to take risks, gambles, punts, whatever on blokes with issues as we have in thisn past. Unfortunately this guy appears to have more than a few.
Who said he decided he wanted to stay? The singing of the contract could've just been so Brisbane had more leverage on the trade table.

To ensure a club doesn’t bend Brisbane over through means of pre season draft ect and so he holds trade value. The word from multiple people is schache doesn’t want to let Brisbane down so happy obliged. He isn’t attempting to screw them over in the slightest
 
we would be mad not to do 15 or 17 for schache. we are desperate for future talls and its unlikely that a forward with his potential will drop to those picks. no riskier than choosing a less talented player with that pick, and fulfills a definite need.

Guy is being pushed out of his club - why take a risk on a player where there’s something clearly wrong irrespective of the pick. Have we not learnt our lesson?
 
Just wanted to check where we're at with the possum? Let's not lose focus here

I’ll be providing an update at 10:20 tonight.

The potential reward would be worth the risk. Way more than Yarran who we traded for a similar pick.

Wouldn’t be touching this trade with a 10 foot barge pole. We don’t need to take the risk. Should be going to the draft and using our picks

The draft is the exact same thing tho. Its a risk. You have no idea how they will perform at AFL level. E.g Lennon.
With Schache you at least get someone who as rated very highly initially.

Seriously whats the difference between trading one of those picks for Schache or using it on an untried draftee?
 
I'm not sure why so many people are keen on Smith on this thread. What does he upgrade for us? Why would we consider using up a first round pick for him when he isn't required? We should only be looking at a KPF and that's it if we decide to trade this period.

He's a massive upgrade on Castagna. I'd give one of our first rounders for him, but I'm just as happy for us do to nothing and keep our picks
 
don't buy into the we have no cap room bs maric/yarran/lids all coming off the cap as well as the small savings from hunt/elton/morris just need to get lennon's 400k and miles money off the list
 
Wouldn’t mind the club giving the fans a revised update.

because unlike castagna devon smith is a great kick of the ball and has lovely skills he can also rotate through the guts

We’ve interviewed him and said no. Is that not enough? Based on your criteria we should take on a player who has issues because we know about them? Despite him being in the system for two years he is a completely unknown quantity. Plus another AFL club wants him gone. I’d take a draft pick over that any day of the week
