Bluemour Discussion Thread XIV - Facts Not Welcome

[dlb99]

That's your reasoning for not wanting Kelly?

Yes.

Cripps was from the same draft.
Cripps is now our captain
Cripps was All-Australian this year, Kelly not.

Sorry, if Kelly comes he needs to be paid less than our captain.

 

[Bronze]

I have a fantastic idea people.

Listen carefully, it is simple.

Let's draft Sam Walsh. BOOM!!

Walsh is Kelly MK2.

 

[Benaly28]

Quite obvious remaining BIG deals will be done on Wednesday night for tv.Id say they’d probably have already been agreed to.

 

[CFC18]

Nup it would be "sorry Dylan - but once you made it clear you didn't want to join us we made commitments elsewhere. Since we know "you love the club" you can show your love by joining as FA next year (on $500K per year).

Not that the deal for Shiel will fall over but we haven't exactly made other commitments.

 

[BringBackSimmo]

Nah.

Just not be so shit at identifying and developing talent .

Well we did a pretty good job with Tuohy, then we traded him. Well he wanted to be traded but still..

 

[Brutalitops]

Buzz takes a specie in the first minute of the game and ends it like this. It's a few minutes in brilliant goal in conditions people couldn't even pick the ball up.

Ahh, back when they only used one footy per game. That footy looked waterlogged and heavy as from the kick in from Hamilton, and then Buzz swoops and kicks the Burley like it was new! Classic. Cheers for that

Commentators said he kicked 8 though. They probably got it wrong. The stats guys dont generally muck something like up.

 

[Funk]

It really does tell us nothing, he is a professional footballer and rightly or wrongly made a decision based upon what he felt was better for his career.

So could have Sam Docherty - I don't need to say more.........

Agreed. Makes a lot of sense

 

[dlb99]

Walsh is Kelly MK2.

It is more satisfying to grow our own green shoots.

 

[katmanblue]

Well yes.

Especially when I don't have time to scroll over almost 200 bluemourless pages to get the idea. Duty calls for the week.

Call of Doody?

Is he any good?

May have even been a Chesson footy in the 1978 season.

Either way, that goal is ridiculous . It was like the best of Eddie and Cyril, the swerve from a standing start through traffic is complete bullshit.

Can he go through the middle though?

 

[passmark]

Walsh is Kelly MK2.

They are not really very similar in playing style.

[katmanblue]

I'd be happy with Pick 1 and change. 2 firsts, given one of them is pick 1 is a bit much.

However getting Kelly would make our existing crop of kids that much better

Exactly. All of the same reasons as with Shiel except he is younger and better.

Let’s not.

Re Scully to Hawks for a pick in the 50's. Would we have got away with something similar for Daisy if he wasn't a FA?

 

[katmanblue]

Dint worry about salary cap. We'll just let Kelly cut some laps on Lygon in the private jet. Can just see him hanging out the pilots window yelling "Mate, move yer f***ing shitbox VL turbo or I'll hitch it up and dump it in the Yarra!"

Haven't seen a class turbo on Lygon St for years.

Edit: VL turbo (bloody auto correct)

 

[Arr0w]

No to Josh Kelly, he has not proved he is better than Crippa and Crippa is now our captain.

Biggest paypacket should go to Cripps.

Not that I want to go hard for Kelly, but would you pay:

Cotchin more than Martin?
Hurn more than Shuey?
Ward more than Kelly?

 

[Freamon]

Just a heads up regarding the interest around Shiel: OR on Talking Carlton posted this today.

[WeninRome]

Walsh is Kelly MK2.

What weight was Kelly when he was drafted? Walsh is almost 20kg lighter than him at this stage.

Saints and Hannebery?

Cotchin more than Martin?
Hurn more than Shuey?
Ward more than Kelly?

If Ward was playing at a big melbourne club he would be rated a top 5 mid in the comp
