James Aish

[budget]

hi guys,id like to know a little about what people know of the real possibility of securing james aish in the not too distant future.is this just wishful thinking or could it be possible?

 

[Hank93]

High based on what I've been told

 

[bickley26]

James is contracted to Brisbane until the end of 2015... I'm sure the club are keeping a keen watch on him and wouldn't surprise at all if he is Crow in 2016..

 

[dogs105]

Yes please

 

[earlsta]

A midfield with Danger, Sloane, B. Crouch, M. Crouch, Aish, B. Smith, Douglas in the rotations would be a premiership midfield. I've only seen a little of Aish, I know he's going to be a gun though, but does is he slow? Does he have a little pace to him? That would be great if he possesses some pace.

 

[dogs105]

Anyone called Aish should be playing in SA. Its natural.

 

[MyLittleSloaney]

Anyone called Aish should be playing in SA as long as it's not with port. Its natural.

EFA

 

[Draft Bored]

This has to happen. Get rid of our first round pick for him next year.

 

[40porpoise]

I heard when he was drafted he was pretty dissapointed and had no intentions of staying in Brisbane. Just hope nothings changed

 

[Tex200]

He may well prove to be Brisbane's Jack Gunston.

[Deaneus!]

Time to put together a good deal for Brisbane...

I hope it's our turn to play Hawthorn then.

 

[Magma]

if he wants to come back, and that's if, i hope we give brisbane a fair deal. we've seen our best players cherry picked for next to bugger all and it hurts.

 

[AFC3000]

Hopefully he's one of those ones we start working on "18 months to 2 years out". Would be nice to have a non-free agency player declare that they are leaving a club and demanding to be traded here for once.

 

[Crowked]

We are the only club that gives away gun players for chump change. Not to mention that most men have more class than to completely screw over the club that gave them their start. We really need to get better at identifying those 'quality people'.

If we want Aish, its going to cost us plenty.

 

[Smoooothy]

any reason we can't put an offer on the table this year?

Nope - hope we do. Will cost big though as they can just refuse and James has no options.

Gunston is the only one to really do that to us that I can recall.

I'm sure you could sight Tippett, but had we not made a stupid mistake ourselves then he would have been well worth the draft pick used to get him onto our list in the first place.

Neither Bock or Davis screwed us over either, if anything, Davis helped us out a bit.

its funny with those two - bocky went almost with our blessing as he was older - davis made the same call and was seen as judas

i mean i was as angry at it at the time as anyone, but you'd be hard pressed not to do the exact same thing if given the opportunity

 

[Tex200]

Davis didn't burn his bridges though - that was the difference with him

jacobs wasnt that long ago

 

[#theliveschism#]

ive been hearing that the crows are keen on Lachie weller (about right for our pick), potentially to be used as trade bait for aish at the end of 2015. I wouldn't have thought that footy clubs would make draft decisions based on hypotheticals such as this one. Thoughts?

I quite like the look of Weller anyway, but no, no issues at all with that strategy provided there is no glaringly obvious talent we are missing at that pick. You have to allow for Aish changing his mind and wanting to stay. I guess he could be used for Mayes or a Suns player too.

Bottom line is you have to assume first and foremost Weller is good enough to be a 200 gamer - if yes then grab him with an eye open to the other stuff

I hope we do and I hope we're clear with Brisbane that this is the price we would be prepared to pay this year - and here is the price we'll pay next year when he's uncontracted (hint: it's much lower).
