Bluemour Discussion Thread IX

Wonder if he enjoyed playing at HB...?

You’d be hoping that Simmo’s 300th put some perspective in his thinking to remain with the CFC (and that we stayed the course with our list management strategy/remuneration).

Possibly. Happy for him to stay, just not as captain.

Take it for what you will,Shiel is Victoria bound and if the Blues pony up the cash,he is ours............indisputable fact..........what sort of dollars he wants i don't know,but his preference is us.......Fact again...........take it too the bank

This was going so well until the last line...

Part that I take out of it is the last 4 words.

'Take it to the bank.'

Sounds familiar.

Edit: damn, Ferris beat me!

Lachie hunter, luke Dahlhaus or jack macrae.

we'd be more likely to get bont for a third rounder than jack macrae

 

[HARKER]

I don't understand how the term 'indisputable fact' comes about.
If it's a fact, it's a fact. Adding indisputable in front of it doesn't make it any more a fact, does it?

It's clear that we're confident on a player or two.
The CFC aren't the club that makes noises about its need for quality, mature players without something in the bank.....It's not as though were North

 

[bmaurizio]

Agreed, but not for this years first round pick.

Agree totally, our 2018 1st rounder is worth gold. May well be a 1st pick, better than any of the last decade.

 

[F_therest]

Another reason why I don't understand the fascination with trading pick one, if we get it, for Shiel (or making Shiel the centerpiece of a pick one trade). He's only 182cm.

You can't call Shiel a small midfielder...
Maybe not that tall but built like a tank.

Sps, Fisher etc look like they'll always be small.

Lachie hunter, luke Dahlhaus or jack macrae.

The rumour is the person is same era as a former bulldog...meaning it would be someone like Chris grant, not a current player.

If pick number 1 is a walk up start for blues next year

Who’s position will he take?

 

[F_therest]

Isn’t this almost the same situation as griffen?

Captain, wanted to free up cap space, moves to potentially have more success..

Not quite as iirc Griffin really wanted out of the dogs because he had a bad relationship with the coach. He was also a reluctant captain to begin with.

Murphy has a good relationship with the club.

Think it was a favourite son, which could be anyone really.
We’re all someone’s daughters...we’re all someone’s sons...

That's a pearler

Same era as Liam jones? Could be Cordy or Roughead.

 

[F_therest]

We’re all someone’s daughters...we’re all someone’s sons...

The rumour was that it came from a former player, and we were trying to lure a player from the same era who is also a favourite son.

So this particular rumour is not about a current player.

 

[F_therest]

If it is they are very loose with the term favourite son haha

 

[thylacine60]

So back to Dr Rohan Smith from the coaching department?

oh man....that would be Ayce.

 

[TooBlue14]

Source could be stringer and the favourite son could be Bontempelli.

 

[Johnny James]

Good.
The more Ayce Players we can get the better.

 

[Bluey24]

As long as it’s not Libba

Ha ha, I bloody love Libba

More, that we had a poster on here who used those words for all the rumours they posted, and not one of the was legit.
