Bluemour Season Blast Off Edition XXXIII

[Dadda Dave]

That we won’t have to watch Liam Jones run around like a headless chook in his own world, playing 80 metres off his direct opponent is a huge win. He is an absolutely shocking footballer. Can spoil and take a mark if he decides to man up, but rarely does that. Kicking would be bottom 10% in the league.

Spoty

 

[WFGodot]

Tell ya what, it’s added another chapter to one hell of a story.

Early draft pick.
Doesn’t do much, inconsistent.
On the scrap heap, traded.
“Explosive beast”…
Fails, almost delisted.
Last ditch saloon, tried down back in VFL.
finds way into the 22.
Gradually improves, poster boy for “try them down back before cutting”/“career turnaround”
Becomes one of the best 1v1 players in the game (~90% win percentage).
Gives it all up at the peak of his powers because he doesn’t want a needle.

And takes a shit on the way out. Dunning-Kruger at its worst/best. So sad.

 

[ferrisb]

Need Andy McKay for this one...

Jones (subvaxation) 1-2 jabs

Upto the point where it impacts their ability to do their job. Then it becomes public knowledge because it's impossible to hide without straight up being dishonest with the supporters etc.

If a player can't enter a football ground because of government/league mandates around general health and safety, how do they fulfill their obligations? They can't. How do you hide that from the general public?

The most that anyone could hope for would be to postpone it becoming public for a little while.

Ok this is the last one from me on this topic as as I have stated before "I'm here for the rumours even the bullshit ones for a laugh".

Let me ask you this if it was because of his mental health/illicit drugs that he wasn't playing do you think that should be common knowledge and the club would release it?

There's no way it would happen all you would see was

OUT: L.Jones (rested) even if it was for the season.

Everyone may speculate even post a "rumour" in this thread and that's how it should stay until Liam came out and wanted to tell of his struggle etc .

It's how it should have stayed with this polarizing topic but no some piece of excrement decided to name and shame to get the "Scoop" and now everyone is

jumping up and down and pulling their hair out either in the for or against vaccine camp.

Life is about freedom of choice and I feel unless your choices are of a criminal nature that whatever you do in life should stay your own personal information

and you should not be adjudged for those choices.

Disagree.

Every member and fan is a stakeholder of the club and should know when one of its players is voluntarily choosing not to play. The decision impacts his team mates, the club, the sponsors, the members and the fans.

Happens in every industry and every time, industry moves on and adapts. Everyone in any industry is able to be replaced. The only consequences are his potential loss of employment. That’s on him. Goalposts might change in the future, who knows.

 

[BigBreakfast]

Haha nice.

Oh no trust me I am a supporter. Just not of shocking AFL footballers, like Liam.

Made a great career for himself despite his limited game awareness and football nous.

The only people in disagreement would be a few blues supporters that support any play no matter what they do on field, as mediocre as it is.

Isn’t that what supporter do? Support? You sound like an antagonist, win, dominate or summary execution…

 

[Bobmonkey]

He needs to get frozen out of the club. Direct everyone just to ignore his calls and questions. Speak to everyone else.

How dare an AFL journalist report AFL news, the audacity.

You missed the wether/whether. Doesn’t matter. Ellipsis’ are your best friend (…)

 

[Accidental genius]

Do we know why Liam is hesitant about being vaccinated?

 

[BigBreakfast]

Should it matter?

[Accidental genius]

Should it matter?

No it doesn’t but still I wouldn’t mind knowing. I just like to know things.

 

[Wickzki]

please tell me your not my fare wether friend?

Speaking about fare, yous guyz making me hungry. Thanx fiends.

 

[BigBreakfast]

please tell me your not my fare wether friend?

With you through thick……………and…………….thin……………….

 

[BigBreakfast]

My guess it won’t be anything mind blowing. We will know soon enough and he has a right to privacy until he discloses them.

If it's mental health you often get the "player X has taken a leave of absence from the club" type announcement. If the player isn't there, there's no hiding it for any length of time

One thing that's worth mentioning is that there was speculation about 5 or 6 of our players being the one who hasn't been vaxxed yet. Scoop naming Liam has stopped the speculation about 4 or 5 of our guys.

Now, whether you agree with Scoop releasing Liam's name or not, surely you can agree that stopping speculation about some of our other players is a favourable outcome?

Or do you think other players being thrown under the proverbial bus was the preferred outcome?

Nothing about this situation is ideal. Far from it.

So there's no consequences for Carlton for 2022?

Let me retort with who cares with speculation because unless it gets confirmed it remains just that speculation. They can speculate all they want even come

in this thread and speculate who it is but no one knew until "Scoop" let it out which is wrong.

You think it's scoops job to release that personal information to the public?

People's private lives should stay exactly that unless they commit a crime or endanger someone else's life with their choices.

 

[Donnini]

I have no problem with the medias role in this.

 

[thylacine60]

long as we have someone/thing to blame............

Isnt refusing a Covid vaccination endangering someone else's life ?

I was speaking to a friend this week whose family are planning a family celebration and one of the relatives revealed they have not been vaccinated and others were concerned about potential exposure to Covid and the unvaccinated were not invited to this gathering.

oh god, part of the problem being even with 2 years of this endless kerfuffle, we're reading shit that sounds like it was penned in 2019..........
