Lewy Taylor is not good
Always seems to rip us a new one when he has played us (or seems like it anyway) and is durable, difference from Ah Chee who may be more talented but spends all his talent on the physio table.Lewy Taylor is not good

Didn't mean to be insulting. I think trades between our clubs should be fair, there's no point in us ripping off the Suns, it's winning the battle but losing the war (by that I mean the war to make Queensland an Australian rules state). We'll see how it all turns out in the end. Someone once said that sign of a balanced deal is when neither side is totally happy with the outcome, so maybe their value is somewhere in between.Martin Pick 6-10
Ah Chee pick 19-23
What you are saying is insulting when said on this board even though you normally are a legend.
You right now have your Lions hat on and want to feast on our difficult predicament.

I should note that I'm more than happy to rip off the Victorian knobs.
Judging from what has been said he is not leaving on bad terms.If ah chee is worth third or fourth round, send him to the draft, waste of time getting 4th round pick, by that time other club already finished their ND draft pick.
Sorry but Lions getting after our players I am hoping it's on from now on and Suns will return favour one day. I am still filthy Ah Chee is leavingDidn't mean to be insulting.

Exactly, Suns should go after their good prospects who don't play AFL due to no injuries.If whats been said about Brisbane getting in to Callum Ah Chee which has been offered a 4 year deal then they can pay the price
If I was in charge of GC i would be asking for 1 or 2 things
1. 1st round pick
They have targeted the kid and given / offered a 4 year deal then he is worth that currency #15-#20 with maybe a 3rd going back if they are nice
2. Ely Smith or Connor McFadyen , Connor is a brute of a player that should have gone 2st round and will be a player as well as being a queensland academy kid which would be perfect for the Suns
That'll never happen. Both of them are younger and more valuable than Ah Chee. This regime at Brisbane don't pay stupid prices. Ah Chee is uncontracted, Gold Coast don't have the advantage here that they would were he contracted.2.

Well they have committed to the kid and he has informed his club of his wishes to move, Now its upto them o get the deal doneExactly, Suns should go after their good prospects who don't play AFL due to no injuries.

Not sure you understand how this all works. Brisbane can easily just walk away rather than being held to ransom. If this were Gold Coast's negotiating position, well, hope Callum likes the Demons.1. 1st rounder
2. Ely Smith
3. Connor McFadyen
Take your pick brissie
Ah Chee is three years older and has shown very little at senior level. Being injured is not a plus, it reduces the value of a player since he is at risk of aggravating his previous injuries. Draft position is only one factor, and several draft watchers would argue Ah Chee was a reach anyway. If draft position was the be all and end all, Scrimshaw would have gone for much more, same with Schache.Why ???
Ah Chee was a top 10 pick thats been injured and Brisbane have come for him
McFadyen is a pick #43 academy kid
Smith pick #21
neither player has played a game and is extremely speculative , Totally fair imo
I actually don't mind Brisbane walk away , last year wasted all the second and third round pick for Brisbane second Rd. A late third or a fourth is just a waste of time. Can't even used it to get greenwood, keath.betts, although I not interested in keath but at least you need some decent draft pick to exchange to be in negotiations phase.Not sure you understand how this all works. Brisbane can easily just walk away rather than being held to ransom. If this were Gold Coast's negotiating position, well, hope Callum likes the Demons.
I think you dont understand , Brisbane cannot just walk away after making a commitment and getting the player to leave his clubNot sure you understand how this all works.

The responsibility is to get the deal done and complete their obligation
Richmond never intended to pass on pick #6 for Prestia but had to due to making a commitment to him to get the deal done, These things mean alot to player managers and potential players in the future . Cameron was a pick #20+ type player but lions had to cough up #12
You guys should not give up on a quality top 10 picked player thats just 21
Why, is there a law somewhere saying they can't? If so, there'd be no condition whatsoever for a PSD to ever happen, but actually there is.I think you dont understand , Brisbane cannot just walk away after making a commitment and getting the player to leave his club
Prestia had other suitors willing to pay a similar price if Richmond wouldn't strike a deal. Cameron was contracted. Adelaide held the whip hand because if no deal was struck they'd retain him. Gold Coast don't have that advantage, they don't necessarily keep Ah Chee next year if Brisbane walks away. Will there be other clubs willing to cough up their first or a recent high draft pick for Ah Chee? Will Ah Chee accept Gold Coast's offer? We'll see.Richmond never intended to pass on pick #6 for Prestia but had to due to making a commitment to him to get the deal done, These things mean alot to player managers and potential players in the future . Cameron was a pick #20+ type player but lions had to cough up #12
I didn't know our only choices were either giving up or being extorted. But if that does end up being the choice Gold Coast gives Brisbane, I'll gladly support giving up.You guys should not give up on a quality top 10 picked player thats just 21

Moreover, if Brisbane are obligated to get a deal done if they've made a commitment to Ah Chee, why stop at one of those three demands? Why not demand all three? Why not demand Lachie Neale and Charlie Cameron in the bargain too? Because apparently Brisbane "cannot just walk away", no matter what the demand is.I think you dont understand , Brisbane cannot just walk away after making a commitment and getting the player to leave his club

Has he accepted this contract? If not, I wonder why you're so confident.Pay up-if it’s too much then walk away we will take him back no problem, after all we’ve offered him a contract.
I thought you said you want to walk away. Do it don't just talk. We dare you, don't bother for a late third waste of time.Has he accepted this contract? If not, I wonder why you're so confident.
