Player Watch Lachie Schultz

[sideswipe]

Unfortunately, it's no secret that I am a very unattractive man. Due to always leading with my face and just genetic ugliness. I tried to join the sex party as a last resort but they turned me away

So the secret to reaching self-funded retirement is being so fugly that hookers knock you back?

Another Swannie type in the 60’s one can only dream

Tom Langdon was a 60s pick too I think? An injury free repeat of that would do

i think it's scientific categorised as having the northern look of a south-bound camel....

 

[CasuallyDressed]

A first rounder and a pick that will be like... 40-ish by the time it's actually time to use it.

I'm happy with this for a walk-up best 22.

 

[pinko77]

A few years ago we didn't have much in the small forward area now have the best in the comp. He loves the big games a packed out mcg he will go next level like hill this season.

 

[Abdul_The_Bull]

To get a player who is in the top 5 in the league for his position and arguably the hardest position to play, who will be a lock in the 22 for that position for the next 5+ years, this is unders and anyone who thinks we paid overs, doesn't understand this.

This allows McCreery to play more midfield and throw his weight around.

This allows Hill to rotate on the wing more often.

This puts pressure on Ginnivan to constantly improve.

This covers Elliott who I love and adore but with his history of soft tissue injuries and the sad fact he is turning 32 next season, is potentially playing his last season next year.

This makes us a lot more potent up forward which was a weakness for us in a premiership season.


Huge win, massive unders, welcome Lachie.

This post. In every way, this post.

The kid has some serious talent, but more importantly, he has a bit of mongrel about him. He will provide flexibility like Spiral_Out stated. It is a smart acquisition and will pay dividends quickly.

It worked for me.

 

[loki04]

I think Lachie is a terrific fit for us both in terms of role and demographic. Looking forward to seeing what he produces.

He's a great little player worth picks in 24' 20s (hopefully) and current nd 30s.
Probably slight over but ah well.

Not sure I agree it is a current need rrolein 2024 but at 26 it will be not long after i guess it offers flexibility in players who play there now.

Prob Ginni and McCreery are going to be phased into midfield or Schultz himself has played a decent game there for freo when trialled.

 

[neilk]

This bloke is a gun I'm telling ya. I've watched a lot of him over the last couple of years and was rapt when I heard we were after him.

He's going to get much better supply than he did with that rabble over west.

Our crowd are going to love him because he works his arse off.

He looks good in our colours too.

Well that's Schultz screwed then. Who can we trade for to replace him?

 

[pinko77]

Some people thought we paid to much for hill (2nd round pick) I think they are pretty happy now. It's about right for Schultz he makes us a better team straight away and has at least 6 good years in him.

 

[live fast pieyoung]

Geelong were favourites for back to back last year and finished 12th... It'll be a very pricey if we have a premiership hangover

forget hangover... just a bad injury to the wrong players (moore for instance)
not a lot has to go wrong to slip to mid table

Nevertheless, Im glad we got Lachie. We overpaid, because an F1 has huge risk. But this is the year to go all in before pendles, howey and sidey retire

In Wrighty We Trust. Embroider that on your undies. It has served me well.

With the ladies?

 

[BigVic]

I always trust Wrighty. Last 3 premiers all slid the following year

Richmond 2020 - missed finals
Melbourne 2021 - out in straight sets
Geelong 2022 - missed finals

Wrap the poor bast*rd up in a puffer jacket and put him down now. The 21st century equivalent of the kiss of death has been administered.

 

[Cyclops]

We have to play him at full back next time we play GWS.

 

[FAIRANDBALANCED]

I really like Schultz given the way we play, but think we gave up too much. It effectively impacts our trading next year too as we can't trade out that first to upgrade.

Still, who gives a Shiite about that if we are top 4 again and competing for a flag.

 

[Jasper84]

Once upon a time there was a guy called Dane Swan available in the third round

Bizarre that you would go for a 20 year old "3rd round draft steal" reference when Lachie Schulz at pick 57 was just sitting there.

Welcome Lachie/Locky/Lochy Schultz/Shultz/Schulz

Happy to have you on board.

 

[Nicco_jj]

Welcome to Paradise, Shoota!!

Bro he's kicking snap goals on BOTH feet in split second opportunities. How many small forwards are regularly doing that?

Kicks both feet, acrobatic and opportunistic finisher when needed, can kick a set shot, tackles his guts out, is not on big coin.

Far out!

 

[RuFiO]

If it was the other way around we would've only gotten a 3rd round pick back.

 

[Markfs]

Trading a future 1st round has its risks. We could end up 15th next year and have just traded away a pick 3....

I could condemn the club now or wait to see how it all pans out and just say "i told you so" if things go wrong. I think i'll choose the latter. I find that I have plenty of list management skills when I'm working retrospectively....
