Should we chase Josh Schache?

[LP]

I would not be keen on what amounts to a swap of Cas for Tippett.

I agree Tippett is over-rated, he is no better than Casboult around the ground and is weaker over-head.

I'd rather keep Casboult if that is our option, because at least Casboult looks likely as a CHF. If he keeps kicking straight opponents will start to respect him more and won't run off him. Further I like the look of his mobility around F50 stoppages, when he has momentum and makes use of it he's a very big boy! Casboult will be even better if some of the younger guys start to demand some respect, and also stop taking their opponents to his marking contests.

.............. I imagine Casboult would net us a second rounder as compensation.  I would estimate that would be his value on the open market.

I'm not sure, maybe a very late 2nd Rnd pick, but most likely a 3rd Rnd pick and maybe a top up list player. The problem as I see it is that if you are a prospective buyer you need Casboult and Sav Rocca, if you don't have the pair you potentially have nada! Rocca really is working a miracle!
