Lions List Manager Peter Schwab hosted a live Q&A on the Brisbane Lions twitter account and answered all your burning questions about the Lions trade period.
See how it played out below:
On Bastinac:
@Bobbie_Evans no we are not making a direct swap of 17 for Bastinac. Deal also includes some picks #AskSchwabby
— Brisbane Lions (@brisbanelions) October 21, 2015@lukefairley I think he's a good replacement for Jack. Similar experience #AskSchwabby
— Brisbane Lions (@brisbanelions) October 21, 2015@BamBam10989 We are working hard to secure Ryan Bastinac in any potential deal involving Aish #AskSchwabby
— Brisbane Lions (@brisbanelions) October 21, 2015On draft picks:
@Kryan_18 We can secure as many picks as necessary to match the Academy bids #AskSchwabby
— Brisbane Lions (@brisbanelions) October 21, 2015@Official_UBLfp the short answer is yes #AskSchwabby
— Brisbane Lions (@brisbanelions) October 21, 2015@worbsy88 We will make sure that we cover the bids
— Brisbane Lions (@brisbanelions) October 21, 2015@AnIndianSmile The bottom line is you can have a max of 40 players on your primary list #AskSchwabby
— Brisbane Lions (@brisbanelions) October 21, 2015@BF_Fatcat08 That's incorrect. Because we can use multiple picks to match an Academy bid. But we still can only have 40 players on list
— Brisbane Lions (@brisbanelions) October 21, 2015@Dan____16 It's not going to happen so I won't speculate #AskSchwabby
— Brisbane Lions (@brisbanelions) October 21, 2015@Porternator At the same time last year as Andrews, Hipwood looks just as good. Keays is a different type but can have an impact immediately
— Brisbane Lions (@brisbanelions) October 21, 2015@Dan____16 Every player is different but he can play at both ends like Andrews #AskSchwabby
— Brisbane Lions (@brisbanelions) October 21, 2015@royboy70 Not necessarily. But they would be later picks #AskSchwabby
— Brisbane Lions (@brisbanelions) October 21, 2015On the Aish deal:
@AdamTurner31 Still in discussions. We'd need an outcome that is beneficial to our list next year #AskSchwabby
— Brisbane Lions (@brisbanelions) October 21, 2015@mitchhhhy The deal is still being discussed between all parties #AskSchwabby
— Brisbane Lions (@brisbanelions) October 21, 2015@BF_CJed Discussions have been amicable #AskSchwabby
— Brisbane Lions (@brisbanelions) October 21, 2015On Brendan Whitecross:
@terryowen4 His name has been discussed, but no decision as yet #AskSchwabby
— Brisbane Lions (@brisbanelions) October 21, 2015On our newest recruits:
@Dan____16 That's up to Justin but Walker has played mainly as a key forward, Jansen a tall inside mid, and Bell high forward mid option
— Brisbane Lions (@brisbanelions) October 21, 2015@TrentonBooth We discussed Levi, but decided upon Josh Walker #AskSchwabby
— Brisbane Lions (@brisbanelions) October 21, 2015On the Leuey compo pick:
@LionsRoarAFL We would have liked it to have been higher, but we have adjusted #AskSchwabby
— Brisbane Lions (@brisbanelions) October 21, 2015On player retention:
@Jwilly81 The appointment of Craig and Melissa Lambert is a significant one in this regard #AskSchwabby
— Brisbane Lions (@brisbanelions) October 21, 2015On the Lions taste in cars:
.@riotoussideburn We prefer the @HyundaiAus Genesis #AskSchwabby
— Brisbane Lions (@brisbanelions) October 21, 2015Sorry guys gotta run. Thanks for all the questions. Everything will be revealed by 2pm tomorrow afternoon #AskSchwabby
