Ok getting a bit ahead of myself here but lets look at the following scenario. Lets say Kruezer and Burger both leave and we both got band 1 compensation . So carlton gets pick 1 & 2 and Lions pick 3 and 4 . What about the scenario we offer to to trade pick 4 and aish as a package for pick 2. We would then get Scache and Francis ( They would then get aish, weitering and probably a darcy parish ) Win win all round from current situation. That being said if we had of come last we would of been all the ones holding the cards especially now that aish could go into pre season for nothing.

Excellent work Tim....I'd be more than happy to throw Redden in as well to ensure this happened...he is nowhere near our best 22 when Beames x 2 and Co return.

If we end up with pick 3 then we take Francis and move on. Have to admit im pretty happy with how Freeman is going at the moment.
I'm with you chopper, if fate deal us Francis instead of Schache I won't be too disappointed - the kid look like a real winner to me.

Ideally we get Schache, but certainly Freeman is starting to show some real signs that he can be a good forward at the senior level.

Was just thinking the same. I am really pretty bullish about Freeman. He may not ever be the dominant forward in the league, but I think he will cause a lot of defences problems. He's also showed moments of really good hands off the deck a couple of times recently: there may be more to his game than just the marking.

A sweet kicking, strong marking 190cm type with an emotional connection to the Lions wouldn't go astray!

I like your thinking,however I would only offer pick 4 and Redden.If Carlton wants pick 4 and Aish - I will quote John Elliott's the greatest comment ever PIGS ARSE !!!

if Aish wants to leave we get a 1st rounder pure and simple and use it get more talent into the club.Carlton can get stuffed.

To have 2 players ranked in the top ten,have a connection with Brisbane, is enough for Brisbane to say here are your 2016 jumpers boys .

Out of the players we could realistically get I would love to get:

Charlie Dixon
Lachie Henderson back
Tom Bell (Hendo and Bell straight swap for Aish if he wants to go to the tankers)
Steve Johnson would be handy pick up as a delisted FA

Realistically they have a chance of getting Bell and that's it out of those names.

Two of those guys seem assured to land at other clubs and Johnson will probably go somewhere else in Victoria. I wouldn't be surprised for the Dees to offer him a playing role with a transition to coaching. Happy to have Bell if the price is right. Would rather Aish go to Pies for their 1st in 2016 though, if possible.

Mayes looked troubled during the game and guilty during the song. Worried about him with those rumours floating around
Contracted, not trading him either unless the offer is something ridiculous. Minus Injuries, his value will more likely go up by end of next season. Just leave him forward of centre and watch his form soar.

Hoping he stays! Would love him to play in finals with us soon :D
