Bluemour Discussion Thread XVII - Coniglio means Rabbit in Italian!

[Sharks On A Plane]

I’m sure many on this board would agree.
Doubt Silvagni would though ...

I definitely want Martin, but I don't think we'll need to throw in Casboult to get the deal done. Casboult is a very valuable player imo, especially for his rucking ability given our current ruck stocks. He's playing extremely good football and I hope we keep him.

 

[Brezsa]

Matthew Lloyd just come out and said that we are more than a 50% chance to land Stephen Coniglio, Tom Papley and Jack Martin, has his brother let him in on a little secret.

I don’t want to stay up another two hours until it’s on in Perth, anything else decent on it?

 

[Elmer_Hauser]

Was hoping for someone 'sexier' like an assistant coach, but it's probably a decent get for Clarko to mention it publicly.

Just don't really know anything about her or how much impact the psych really has.

Worked for Mr Burns.

His team won the Power plant Pennant, thanks in part to that sports psych weirdo hypnotist

[Just Kreuzing]

Or his brothers text messages

Surely he ain’t repeating any word from his brother on national tv.

This is the information i have been waiting for re the trigger clause.
Sounds like it’s played out the way i was hoping.
The clause has been triggered, contracting Casboult for another year on the same money as this year, therefore, a trade is required if Casboult seeks to leave for a better offer.
My hope was always to tie Casboult into a trade for Martin, eg :
Martin for Casboult and our future 2nd.

My hope is Levi stays and we give him at least a two year deal.

No that just about covers it.

 

[FitzroyBlueBagger]

B Hill, Cerra, Switkowski. I don't believe it would happen anyway, trading Fisher I mean, was just musings based on him falling away under Teague while most have improved, some vastly improved. Fisher has gone backwards.

He's been a little disappointing after coming back from the injury/illness no doubt, i see a player that possesses some elite qualities he's quick of mind and has tremendous awareness in and through congestion, he's decision making is right up there just his disposal efficiency letting him down at times atm.
He's a silky smooth player with wonderful evasiveness who has the ability to become a key player in setting up a strong midfield group, he'll be midfielder down the track but until he matures he'll be part of our rotations most likely forward and wing.
Personally i think he has serious upside, wait til he hits the 80-100 games mark
If he decided he wanted to go home Cerra would be the only player I'd be asking for...

 

[AB_Blue]

He's split from her mum so he'd be leaving his daughter behind. Not worth it in my opinion.

No question that would be a hard choice.

Depends what he has in offer post footy I guess

No

Cheers off to bed then

People were calling for Levi to be sent packing end of 2017, traded in 2018, even for a half sucked Mars Bar, yet SOS decided otherwise

Many thought we couldn't win a game this year if Levi was in the side. He has played in all of our 7 wins

Casboult has lifted his rating this year, that’s good for Carlton but i doubt he is part of Silvagni’s grand plan going forward.
People want Papley, but don’t want to pay the Adelaide pick.
People want Martin, but want to pay unders.
If we want quality, we have to be prepared to pay for it.
Papley for Adelaide pick ... done
Martin for future 2nd and Casboult ... done
Identify our targets and get it done, that’s what the good operators do and managers like dealing with such clubs.

 

[Juddrockz]

He reads BF...

Exactly!!

I expect he would have plenty of offers in the media.

I'm 100% with you on Papley, definitely worth the Adelaide pick.

I just think Casboult has become very structurally important. You're actually undervaluing him by bundling him with a second-rounder to land Martin.

We were saying last week that Gil got Hamo to back up his story of No Coniglio to Blues.
Maybe Brad said to Matthew “Lets shut this ****er up”.

 

[Bamboo Harvester]

Purple head on Footy Classified just saying that Clarko was up in Sydney today.
Possibly a last ditch effort??

If Casboult has triggered a clause to extend his contract then it doesn't happen if he doesn't want to go. In light of his personal situation I doubt he will be wanting to go interstate. Money etc will take a back seat to maintaining a relationship with his daughter I would think (and hope).

 

[Burgers45]

Our number 1 fan Matty Lloyd has COniglio, Papley and Martin in our best 22 next year and says we have a better than 50/50 chance at getting all 3

He may be getting this info from his brother which should be kept confidential. Great if true.

They’re talking about Daisy, not Levi

He was looking for off field staff because we poached their sports psychologist, said it on 360

 

[passmark]

Haha yeah. I am waiting for the right one.

Try harder.
