Schache, Scrimshaw.Apart from Boyd players rarely leave during or after there first contract I think he resigns for 2 years if the suns don’t improve in that time I think he definitely leaves lukusius will be the same!
I could be wrong but I’m pretty shore schache did extend his contract during his first contract he left during his extensionSchache, Scrimshaw.
You do realize that clubs already raiding The Suns for a first year draftee is a big reason why Gold Coast will get a Priority Draft Pick ?
Don't play the outrage card when they get picks 1 and 2, and probably some of COLA too.
The AFL needs to do more to protect The Suns from tinpot clubs who are too lazy or unable to draft and develop a decent KPP like King..

Ahh.. so you mean the clubs that have not been sh1t enough to finish bottom to get a chance to draft top end talent..I see.You do realize that clubs already raiding The Suns for a first year draftee is a big reason why Gold Coast will get a Priority Draft Pick ?

hang on, but if Gold Coast are finishing down the bottom and snaffling the best young players that other clubs also covet - those clubs never had a chance to take the players GC get and develop them so it hardly means they are tin pot clubs. So why not say that those players will be attractive targets when they are coming out of contract? It is up to Gold Coast to develop a culture and make the place attractive to try and ward off other clubs attempts. Clubs don't seem to have a problem targeting the crows best players over recent seasons so why can't the crows for example target Lukosius or Grundy from Collingwood. It is on GC to sort it out at their end and gifted PP's just make other clubs more resentful and maybe more determined to go after players coming out of contractBeing bumped down one slot in the draft isn't going to deprive any club of getting elite young talent. ..
As I said before, it's partly the other fault of other clubs for raiding Gold Coast of most of its top and talent, that they will be getting a Priority Pick.
The arrogant comment by the Port Recruting manager of raiding The Suns for their two young gun SA draftees two years ago is a prime example of the contemptible attitude that clubs have towards Gold Coast as a feeder club.

No issue at all in GC playing hardball - you would not expect it any other wayGold Coast are a unique case though and a victim of some unusual circumstances beyond their control and self-inflicted .
At least Rankine has re-signed which is a good start. In King's case, I don't think the two clubs mentioned him in this thread (Dogs and Saints) actually really need him, more of a case of trying to buy another high draft pick cheaply.
I hope the Suns play some serious hardball if he choses to leave at the end of his contract, a top 5 pick plus something else should be a starting point, given the time and development they have put into him.
Use Ben as a Swingman mainly defence with the option to go forwardBoth kings, Bruce and Membrey don’t all fit in the same forward line.
Dogs have a genuine need for another quality tall in the extreme. We would probably prefer a more advanced option, but if Ben did want to come would take the longer term view.Gold Coast are a unique case though and a victim of some unusual circumstances beyond their control and self-inflicted .

I won't be whinging if Gold Coast get a PP and we get Ben King...You do realize that clubs already raiding The Suns for a first year draftee is a big reason why Gold Coast will get a Priority Draft Pick ?

I would think he wants to be in Melbourne but at a different club then his brother .I just don’t think it’s viable for St Kilda to be trading him in. GC should demand heaps for him and preferably the King brothers both play as forward.
St kilda board always float the idea of trading Bruce but I don’t think it’s a great idea.
That being said I’d imagine Ben king wants to play with his brother at some point.
Schache did extend, but ended up leaving a few months after, at the end of his first contract.I could be wrong but I’m pretty shore schache did extend his contract during his first contract he left during his extension
Didn’t he say last year he was glad that they were at different clubs? They’ve always played together and he was keen to play for an opposing team iirc.I would think he wants to be in Melbourne but at a different club then his brother .
“I think we are very close, so ideally we would like to stay together,” Ben said.Didn’t he say last year he was glad that they were at different clubs? They’ve always played together and he was keen to play for an opposing team iirc.

Would love him but I’m not sold on the wanting to play with his brother thing either I worked at the same company as my two older brothers for a few years was a nightmare I hated it could be different for twins but if he comes back to Melbourne everyone except Geelong would be in the race!I would think he wants to be in Melbourne but at a different club then his brother .
you would think wrong,he definitely wants to play with his twin brother,the whole family craves that....I would think he wants to be in Melbourne but at a different club then his brother .
