Bluemour Discussion Thread XVII - Coniglio means Rabbit in Italian!

[F_therest]

Would be the other way around. Papley is a very very good player and exactly the type we need.

Agree we can't expect steak knives our way but surely pick 8 straight swap is pretty generous...cameron went for pick 12.

I guess if they are really digging in and demand something like a third rounder as well as pick 8, we probably just do it in the end to get our man but I'm hoping we don't pay more than 8.

Don't mind 2 cents from ten cents

Worth it at twice the price

Jack Martin, Papley, Coniglio and a small defender.

I’d almost be beside myself.

those first three names alone would make it the biggest and best trade period for any club in recent memory imo. Maybe ever?

It would be pretty outrageous.

I find it hard to believe any trades are 'done' at this stage.

"Done" probably isn't the right word, but it's not beyond the realm of possibility that some clubs who aren't playing finals, and aren't likely to move much, if at all, on the ladder, would be able to agree to terms ahead of the last game of the H&A season.

If Martin is 100% out, and 100% set on Carlton, then it's better for all parties to get the trade hashed out now so that everyone knows what they can/can't do with regards to other deals. If we know we need a second rounder, we can work at trading one in or just deal our future one, and we can bargain freely with our other picks. If GC know they're getting a second rounder, they can shop around the trade market to see who they could trade it for, and get a head start on that front.

Things might change, but it feels about right. Second rounder and some late swaps in GC's favour isn't a bad deal for an our of contract Martin.

I heard that Justin Reid is going to give us overs for Daisy Thomas.

You’d put money on SOS [emoji722] getting back pick 3 before the end of trade period.

“Hey Justin, you’ve got pick 3 and I’ve got some Balinese sand. ... okay, okay Justin, you’ve got me again. Here’s some Morrocan desert as well.”

“That’s more like it SOS, about time you realised who you’re dealing with. Deal done.”

It's a posh way of saying bye bye; often used by those who have plenty of coin.

 

[Blue and Blue]

I find it hard to believe any trades are 'done' at this stage.

When we see SOS with an interstellar phone and big notebooks at our game you reckon stuff is going on.
But of course until the actual trade is done it's never done.

 

[Hands On]

It’s been reported that all clubs met last week at a Docklands cafe and did some preliminary trade ‘speed dating’.
I think it happens every year

& SOS culled a few from the heard and scored 14 Dates.

Reckon you can put a line through 90N90S. Don't think you can come back from this.

I'm sure Sydney have plans of their own. They may need our first pick to get the players they're targeting. It will be an interesting trade period and I'm sure Carlton will leave no stone left unturned.

Swans think tank is not lacking brains like at Camryville. Whatever deal we do with them will be realistic from both sides. At this stage I trust they keen to retain Papley until he tells them he is 100% wanting to come back to Melbourne for next year.

Exactly. Gun player and contracted. We would need to pay overs.

Jay23 foolish mortal!

Bye Jay

 

[thylacine60]

Farewell, young Jay. We barely knew him.

 

[Robbo's my hero]

You will find him on the NO: 19 tram.

Jay23 Goodnight, sweet prince.

 

[chunkylover53]

Young Reid! I love trading with that incompetent youth.

Lol the Young Reid nickname is easily the best nickname to come from Bigfooty I reckon. Crazy Vossy was good but Young Reid is just so damn insulting and condescending.

 

[bluegrass]

Teague is interested in keeping Levi

So much for this Teague man.

 

[TwiggleyFanClub]

Aw c'mon! How many legitimate chances am I gonna get to post a shillelagh!?!

 

[Dominator_7]

Reckon there’s merit to the rumour Martin to Blues is basically a ‘done deal’ and that we see him as a Daisy replacement.
Wouldn’t have not offered Daisy another contract otherwise.

 

[Brezsa]

Well, I'd tell them to stick it.

I’d ask then where do we sign and dinner is on us

 

[KingCharles]

Caller on SEN just stated Coniglio signed a letter of offer last week from Carlton
