Bluemour Season Blast Off Edition XXXIII

[Crippablues]

Giving up pick 8 for Saad was over paying. In my opinion he is over rated and does fu** all. All he does is run for the sake of running and just kicks and hopes.

How many times has he been under pressure in the back pocket and pinpoints a driving ball directly to a player on the wing? Numerous amount of times. Clueless

JOM for sure.

Agree - proven ball winner, would be cheaper than Mitchell

 

[teagueyubeauty]

All AFL trades are completed on day one, but Chief makes them wait until 5 mins before deadline on the last day before they can go live.

That way we can fill the void with tens of thousands of ridiculous hypotheticals, list management manifestos and incessant hand-wringing and posturing.

Pretty sure....

You forgot to add so BigFooty.com can crash or turn into an electronic version of a sloth that frustrates all and sundry every bloody year yet nothing is done to resolve it.

In talks with Stengle.

Surely worth a 1 year deal, or one with heavy performance based caveat has to much talent to not be on an AFL list just has to pull his head in and get to work

 

[IronMan29]

The Brander talk can stop, was chatted with Tuesday, informed Wednesday that we're going with someone else. I have no idea who. Hawthorn also not going with him either. Potentially has a year in the VFL.

He has less heart than Henderson. His mum disagrees.

Oliver Hanrahan? Why?

Is he anything more than a speculative small fwd?

Hanrahan had 36 touches in his final VFL game this year, and averaged over 30 (admittedly in only three matches) - so perhaps the thinking is that he's more than simply a small forward.

I am offended at the implication that Oliver Hanrahan

I am offended at the implication that Oliver Hanrahan's existence is only rumoured.

Calm down Karen

In talks with Stengle.

Okay I don't generally have issue with people posting plausible rumours and others can make their own minds up re credibility.

I get that this is a rumours thread but surely there is something to be said for posting outright fabrications?

This is this poster's 'rumours' all on the very first page:

1) Dow has asked to be traded
2) SPS has asked to be traded
3) SPS does not want to be traded but the club wants to trade him
4) SPS has been offered a one year deal
5) Pyke is in talks with us (4 times)
6) We are in talks with Pendlebury
7) We are in talks with Hodge
8) We are in talks with other clubs about Setterfield
9) We are in talks with Stengle
10) Fisher is on the trade table
11) Fisher is on the trade table but we might offer him a 1 year deal (note: he is contracted for next year)
12) Interested in Lewis Young - got one!!!....actually was posted 3 or 4 hours after it broke on afl.com.au

Come on dude, get your kicks another way and let people have other good discussions instead of derailing the thread for some cheap likes.

 

[Gethelred]

Hanrahan had 36 touches in his final VFL game this year, and averaged over 30 (admittedly in only three matches) - so perhaps the thinking is that he's more than simply a small forward.

He's listed on footywire as 185cm and 75kg; that's small for a mid. LOB is the same height and the same weight, for reference.

Do we know what positions he played in to rack up those touches?

 

[Gethelred]

Calm down Karen

Don't make me get the manager!

 

[F_therest]

Surely worth a 1 year deal, or one with heavy performance based caveat has to much talent to not be on an AFL list just has to pull his head in and get to work

Maybe on a 1 year deal, but I seriously question whether he's capable of pulling his head in and being professional.

Culture and work ethic > talent.

Look at the Grand Finalists over the years...you need total commitment and buy in from the playing group and for them to be selfless and trust each other.

Clubs are looking to offload players with talent like Brander and Ladhams cause they aren't professional enough. Stengle was delisted by Adelaide for his indiscretions.

I guess people deserve a second chance but id be very happy to look elsewhere.

Gibbons was a dual time listen medallist too .. just sayin ..

Well done - Lewis Young just requested a trade to us. On the money.

[Aphrodite]

Dogs eye free agent Hawk, versatile tall requests trade to Carlton

The Western Bulldogs is considering a move for a Hawk as a potential replacement if Lewis Young departs

Why do bad opinions happen to good players?

Should be thread banned.

 

[BIuebagger]

Good, get it done for a lower pick and I think it’s good business for a back up KPP. We should get that done fairly easy - unless it’s part of a bigger plan pick wise

was 200+cm’s

 

[TBellicious]

Love this. Will look good in the longy. Please get it done.

 

[rampar]

Is Young any good? Not sure we need another backup ruck... we need a starting ruck, 26 years and older.

 

[Feva]

Versatile player that can play forward or back, and pinch hit in the ruck. Not sure where we would play him though
