Bluemour Discussion Thread XIV - Facts Not Welcome

[Arr0w]

Think you can get special dispensation from the AFL...it is to stop clubs selling the farm and their future for a short term crack.

In the past four drafts, we've taken 6-7 1st rounders and in the trade periods added at least another 5 or so...

Being that Kelly jumps next season at 24, a case could easily be made for us to skip two first round of the draft, given our dedication to the draft in previous seasons

I smell an oxymoron

FWIW- Our back 6 would look so much better with Steven May slotted in at Full Back

It seems that GWS is struggling to get Essendon to give them Pick 9 + whatever for Shiel.

Surely if it is true we are offering Pick 1 + next year's 1st rounder for Kelly, they would have to be strongly considering it?

 

[Aphrodite]

I wouldn't. Not in a straight swap anyway.

The obsession over Kelly is outrageous.

Would much prefer go after someone like Coniglio and cost ZERO draft picks, or pay a 1st + 2nd rounder for a Neale/Shiel type player at lower dollars, than 2 x firsts for Kelly.

Kelly is a

Would love him at Carlton.

I don’t get the Finlayson hype. We have a better version in Macredie waiting in the wings

Williamson & Schumacher

No thanks. Pass.

 

[GoBlues!]

That would be amazing, we end up with Kelly and Shiel stays at GWS.

Imagine Dodoro

Won’t happen BB.

Dodoro is just stringing it out, a bit of theatre, Essendon will sort out trade for Shiel.

No way GWS will lose Kelly this year.

Yep. We are talking elite and as good as anyone. I do get worried about giving up so much for one player no matter how good.

 

[MitchRobinson12]

Can confirm I've heard the same thing. And that Kelly is very open to it

Hopefully theres something to this. As great as Walsh could be Kelly is/ will be the best midfielder in the comp.

I'm sure you are right, that it won't happen, i was just dreaming for a minute..

 

[Mondyboy]

As others have said our first pick and next years first rounder is a Kelly deal only. He would be a huge get. Would be a game-changer for the club.

Unless TRP EP OR B70 confirm we are having a crack at Kelly I am not going to give this rumour much thought.

amen

SOS making sure EFC pay a premium for Shiel, shrewd work...

Bringing all of the GWS players is leading to the denouement of Kelly joining. Like the ending of the fourth season of a show that ties the whole series together.

I agree that it won’t happen. Also agree that Walsh could be something special.

Kelly could walk into the club on a path paved with ex GWS guys

Dick or not he’s a massive unit and plays with real attitude. Like what ASOS provided with his short stay. He’d make the younger players walk taller. And it’d mean we clear out Rowe and Jones from the back 6. Each to their own. Just my opinion

Nothing will happen tomorrom either , AFL has given instructions to hold blockbusters till cameras roll on Wednesday final day all the action is then for Television.

Agree makes sense.

Tell me more. We rarely get this many people putting the slows on a #1 pick. If he's not huge, not super fast, not a great kick.... why is he so special?

(Please tell me it's because he's like Joel Selwood and Adam Treloar rolled into one)

Toss him a Gorringe on the side of a Palmer, as he enters the Sumner of Kelly
