Rumour The Thread formerly known as the rumour file, now with zero rumours

Carlton have lost the plot ..Tippet was good 5 years ago ..his crap now ...gumbleton too ..what is this junkyard tip

 

[HereComesJuddy]

Think Brisbane are willing to give up their first round pick which I think is about 6 or 7. There has even been talk on one of the other boards that they are will to send Polec along with that pick.

We really would need him to pick us as his prefered club. Pick 11 I think is the best they will get from us. Maybe a Bower type we would want to throw in, not sure that they would want that though.

barrett confirms carlton is making a bid for tippett

guessing we have cash to spend because we offered cloke 800+

but what will we have to give to adelaide?

 

[Blue and Silver]

Pick 11 and maybe a late pick swap their way.

 

[AVCO]

**** Tippet ...go and get Taylor Walker!!!

 

[Cringle]

Ya kiddin aren't ya!?

I know Tippet is a better footballer, I just think he's overrated.

 

[serenityNow]

If we are after Tippet, surely one of Warnock or Hampson must go? one of those 2 worth a first rounder to someone who needs a ruck? Didnt Wood go for a first rounder?

 

[inyourcool]

One more knock to the head and the guys is ****ed and we want him!!! FMD!!!

A high first round pick this year and a high first rounder player for Tippett?
In effect 2 top 10 picks for Tippett?

Not even Vossy............................

Forget Tippett CFC.

One knock away from being Koschitzke Mk II.

Unconvinced that Tippett has the shit on the liver you want in your power forwards.

Leigh Brown wasn't as good, but at least he had mongrel and intensity.

Bwaahaahaa.

 

[etsal1]

adelaide have an abundance of ruckmen - so dont think warnock will be appealing

they'd probs ask for a defender - not sure i like the idea of losing one of them

 

[Canyouhearthedrums]

If we trade our first rounder for Tippett and Caddy ends up at Richmond I will cry.

 

[Kades_Dad]

IMHO - Tippet in 5 years > Cloke in 5 years.

I laughed when I read it too. Surely pick 11 if he choose us and a swap of second round picks would do it

 

[Veggie]

They can have Gibbs for Tippett and we'll trade pick 11 for Caddy

Can't understand your reasoning. Caddy is another young midfielder hardly a star. Tippett is arguably the best mark in the comp and one of the leagues best forwards.
If we get Tippett it would be the best recruiting coup since Carlton landed Judd.

The difference is that I don't agree with this statement. Tippett is good but has not reached those heights yet. And the concussion thing is a worry.

I rate Caddy.

Tippett seems a huge risk and due diligence would see us get the full MRI brain scan assessment. No laughin' matter, folks.

Nevertheless, if the doctors gave the all clear our 1st round pick should be off the table. Trading Warnock would be the go, I guess, as Tippett has more AFL experience pinch hitting as a ruck than Levi or Mitchell.

You must be a mighty fine debater to claim that first statement is arguable. Ditto for the second, and you would be arguing against everyone in the country bar Tippett's parents. And even they would be agreeing with you out of loyalty rather than conviction.

 

[GordonBlue]

Are you people nuts? First there is little to no chance of us snaring Tippett, but are some of you saying NO to him??? He is exactly what we'd be looking for.

If there is a micro chance we can snare him, go for it.

agree a full medical would be in order but his game against Hawthorn was good enough for me

1) I would certainly argue with that
2) Do not be silly

Tippett is only a slight upgrade on Hampson

 

[Sam The Doc]

HAHAHHAHAHAHHAH

 

[Wickzki]

Gibbs for Tippett? Not on your life.

Don't be delusional. In racing terms Tippett is a 10 length better player than Hampson.
