I know it’s Lions only, so sorry to intrude, but we passed on Roughead as a FA so our compensation for Fasolo wasn’t diluted/taken away.

Not sure the Gibbs deal is really appropriate to use given the circumstances. Adelaide were runners up and considered him the missing piece of the puzzle, hence the willingness to pay a premium. Not sure that Collingwood or Essendon would be as desperate to get Beams on their lists, which would...

If that helps you sleep at night. Given the apparent lack of interest from previously interested clubs, I’d say the market has determined it’s not.

Touché good sir.

I did see that, but doubt cap space is the issue. Makes for a good narrative though. I am a little disappointed, not because of Schache per se, but because I was looking forward to 2 weeks of banter on the trades board with BRAB

No need to get personal, friend.

Pies would prefer 6 alone or 6 and 54, but 6 and 36 isn’t unreasonable.

Lol.

Also, rational probably isn’t the right word. Reasonable is probably the word I’m looking for.

I mean that those who still believe that Schache is worth a top 10 pick + extras with nothing else coming back aren’t rational.

You’re one of the more rational ones in all honesty. The trade scenario you put forth on our board was not ideal imo, but palatable if it were to come to fruition.

I feel like I’m on the verge of another thread ban.

Honestly BRAB is the only one who I need to agree with me. I heard he’s in charge around here.

Moore and Hipwood in the same forward line would be the nightmare. Moore and Schache might be a slightly bad dream on a good day.

I need to get to know a person more intimately before declaring my love. Maybe if he takes me to dinner and a movie....

Stahp it.

For the right price I’m open to it. If you check my post history I was very against it earlier in the year when crazy numbers were being thrown around. Still against it if the price is too high.

Stop trying to offload Close on us. Is this some kind of revenge plot for Frost?

The more rational Lions posters I’ve spoken to seem to think I’m roughly around the mark with his value.

So like... here and the trades board? Oh and the Collingwood board trade thread naturally. You seem to be getting a little bit emotional over this. I’d advise you that it’s not unusual for somerone to be interested in discussing a trade for a player their club has been linked with, regardless of...

Here I am. Talking about a hypothetical trade my club has been linked to. Just as I wouldn’t be here if Collingwood was not linked. Shocking, isn’t it?

For Brisbane, it’s a great deal. Not so much Collingwood. It’s really not. Meh. I’m not sold on Schache enough to lose sleep if we don’t get him. In two years if he’s still miserable and underperforming we might chuck a late pick your way and give him a chance.

Wouldn’t have thought so old chum.

Likewise I think that Collingwood and Richmond will be pretty coy going in to any discussions given the circumstances. Sounds very much like player and club have come to an agreement rather than a trade request being made because of other clubs actively pursuing him.

Soooooo..... 6 for Schache and 19?

Lies. Kirby is invincible.

You know, I was gone, and then you went and quoted me and brought me right on back here. Good work friend.

Goodnight friend. I hope you have an enjoyable weekend. I sincerely enjoyed your melt while it lasted :hearts:

This would have been way better if you'd beaten him to the punch :D
