Bluemour Melting Pot XX - Snark Free Zone

I don’t think anyone has a problem with you or other ITK’s as you do share info, and we understand that sometimes things change and don’t go as planned.
It’s the wannabe ITK’s that say they have info, but won’t share, then deride others who dare to question them.
Anyone can say they have inside info, we’ll prove it if you have.
Some need to justify their insecurities by inflating their self importance

This 100%

The sense of entitlement on this board is out of control. People share info they have and even if it's correct if it's what people don't want to hear they get slammed. Then if something changes they get slammed, then if it doesn't happen fast enough it gets slammed.

If you work yourself up into such a frenzy that it makes you this upset, maybe you shouldn't read this thread.

My understanding is that we will get three deals done tomorrow, but it's impossible to know for certain due to the number of other clubs and moving pieces involved.

I'm done sharing info as there is literally no upside, enjoy the rest of trade week.

No upside? I liked your ****ing posts didn't I???? Didn't I????

 

[Bluesome]

Yeah stick with maybe not..

To be fair to the big fella I think he was hospitalised with concussion that night if memory serves...

 

[Gavstar]

The squeakiest wheel gets the grease.

Rumour sharers, please don't be discouraged by the vocal minority. There are many just sitting back, watching and appreciating. Just look at the likes compared to the responses.

Thread ban anyone who gets personal with those who share rumours.

Spoiled brats who have never negotiated anything of real value.

Adelaide apparently still squabbling over how much they pay towards Betts contract. Thought to be around the $500K mark, I say 50/50 would be fair. He will be good for us for approx one year left and don't want us to overpay.

Not much happens in Adelaide.

They have to kill time somehow........

 

[bluekidjoe]

What is this ‘you people’ shit though?

Count them up. How many people have actually posted negative things in the past week?

Ssshhh, this collective outrage is bringing us together. Don't let them know there's no real bad guy.

I don't blame you or c09 or anyone else, mate. People around here are honestly like children. Spoiling a good little thing by whinging and wanting more.

Maybe we can set up a PM where there's none of this BS.

By the way, I had to study Lord of the Flies in high school back in the day.

I never really understood how a society left to its own devices could tear itself apart so quickly.

But seeing BF during trade week.... It finally makes sense...

You.....fascinate me FB

Ockams Razor gave me some of the greatest feel good moments on the internet during the Essendon drugs saga...even when everyone was blowing their minds those dirty, filthy cheating bastards would actually get away with it.

There was OR very now and then popping into TC to drop a “They’re still ****ed” type tid bit or bits of info that no one else was providing that pretty much turned out very correct!!

No idea who his sources are but I’ve always found them enlightening and impeccable.

Glad he’s made his way to this board to provide his insights, now let’s not fk it up everyone!!

Pretty confident Barass posts when someone in the club says to....he’s legendary!!

Eric Pascoe legendary too....pretty sure numb nuts on this board pushed him out. Disappointing

There are quite a few others that are very good, who will post what they hear in the knowledge that there’s a chance things might change but put their kahunas on the line to keep us informed.

We have the best and most informative board on Big Footy, let’s all try and be respectful and keep it that way hey?

 

[JPZ SKOLIEZ]

If Papley, Martin and Betts are completed in the coming days, what is our chances of getting a big bodied midfielder to help out Cripps? Are we in with a chance for a Bonar or Cutler type player? Or would we have to trade a player?

 

[Stamos]

The complex deals on picks, the tele-conferencing that doesn't happen because Justin is bogged at Westlakes

You mean shitting in his car, don’t you?

 

[FanofFev]

To be fair to the big fella I think he was hospitalised with concussion that night if memory serves...

Nope that was the game he lost us against Geel in 2011

 

[windows1]

Ssshhh, this collective outrage is bringing us together. Don't let them know there's no real bad guy.

Made me chuckle. I’m all like “get the guns out.....who started this shit.....”. I go hunting. There’s like one little guy sitting in a corner with 5,000 people standing above them. “Kill him!!!!”

 

[bluekidjoe]

Remember when barass dropped his keys and we all thought the phone was ringing?

Memories.

Mate, society is five tradeless days away from cannibalism and roaming gangs looting a post-apocalyptic wasteland.

Hope we get Papley tomorrow

Previously it did seem as if Cutler was down to us or *, but that may of change... i'm not sure are was going after Bonar and if we were one of those clubs.

Short notice peeps, little run down from what I’ve gathered

ITK’s are fighting all the bloodsuckers off, more info they scream! MORE!



The ITK’s leave which leads to some pretty savage infighting between colleagues...



So without the ITK’s to keep the wolves at bay the only logical solution to get through trade week is...



All I can say is this Blue baggers, without the ITK’s feeding the underlings I should extend my warmest invitation..

 

[KnobHead]

How about everyone grow up and realise that there are posters that appreciate info and there are posters that get cranky, there are posters that are ITK and there are those that are posers, there are those that will get upset about the info not being appreciated enough and there's are those who couldn't give a stuff what randoms say about them on a rumour thread.

Macca, you’re missing the point.

Vast majority of posters on here like the ITK info. If the ITKs come on here and share info then get bagged, of course they’re going to stop posting. This ruins it for the vast majority.

If people don’t like the ITK info or get grumpy about it, then put the ITK on ignore. It ain’t the hard and it doesn’t ruin it for everyone else. All info is given at a point in time, which can change like all negotiations.

As to determining which ITKs are “real” and “posers”, who makes that call? An individual poster? How would they actually know? Gut feel? Just say if they’re wrong and the ITK disappears, much to the disappointment of the board, all because of one poster?

I'll be in on that.

Mids when are we getting KohPhi back???

 

[Colonel_Klink]

What are you doing?? Just apologise and move on. Enough people on here keep scaring away ITK people. You’re just making this boring for us that look forward to these guys that come on and share info.

Boring is the word exactly.
Boring posts are by far the worst.

 

[VainGlorious]

Mids when are we getting KohPhi back???

Soon. I’m doing my best whilst he is on paid leave.

 

[teknodeejay]

What self righteous crap. So bloody ungrateful, as are 90% of the posters on here. We give whatever info we’re comfortable to disclose on a PUBLIC forum. We’re under no obligation to do it at all but do so as a favour to our fellow blues supporters.

Yet impatient children like yourself say “that’s not what I want - I want more”. Or “it didn’t come true so you must have lied”.

The arrogance is astounding...

spot on. People carrying on about something that doesn’t even involve them, and has no bearing on anything until next season, and people throwing hissy because some self appointed entitlement of demanding things needs validation.
It’s the same every year. I just laugh at the nuffies who act this way.

 

[HBF]

Finally caught up.
What another train wreck this thread has become. Maybe some people in this thread should stick to FB rather than BF.

 

[Arr0w]

Not playing the man anymore than you, just pointing out that everyone has flaws, everyone has ulterior motives everyone can just calm down and stop getting cranky about not being appreciated or rumours not panning out.

You and a few others getting worked about things not panning out as promised

It is laughable

Then you backtrack or try and deflect

Need a bigger shovel?
