Rumour Bluemour Discussion XXXVII

[BlueTongue]

Part of the Setterfield trade IIRC

Oh Dear. That one went badly all round then.

 

[teddy-hopkins]

Lemmey, Okeefe, Ofarrell - not played a senior game yet and no one knows if they will be at the level until they play.

We seem to count these guys as depth, but they aren't really. Not until their a known quantity. Look at tall forward stocks this week. No Harry, but Lemmey still can't bust his way in. Says plenty.

Young is a known quantity. Not getting bettter, and if it wasnt for his contract extension from Austin, Id say he wouldnt even be on the list.

Jsos, been great. But not the answer to the gorilla FB we lack

This can swing around pretty quickly though. 3 weeks ago Carroll would have been in this category. Now he's looking a lock for a spot every week.

Lemmey is half a chance this week depending on what Harry is doing. I'd prefer him over Young.

 

[myblueroan]

Isn’t he one of the 2 we picked up with those generous picks the afl handed us instead of a pp? Then traded him to Geelong

Speaking of 'is it Kre or Kru when you spell kreuzer'...he is doing a stellar job as ruck coach.

Matthew Kreuzer. It’s also Nathan Kreuger.

 

[GoBlues!]

Matthew Kreuzer. It’s also Nathan Kreuger.

It’s also Freddy Krueger which probably confuses the spelling.

Needs to improve his intensity and fitness to be a remote chance.

 

[Chookaradley]

Agreed. Watching him he just doesn't get to anywhere near enough contests

 

[agro]

Yes he does need to improve his intensity and fitness as at the moment he’s significantly behind the current incumbent Lewis Young.

 

[blues4flag]

Needs to improve his intensity and fitness to be a remote chance.

Don't think fitness is an issue, he's a very good runner for a man his size.

Needs to work on intensity and imposing himself on the contest. Solid on a lead but he needs to start crashing packs and halving contests.

 

[Michael Jezz]

I predict only 1 of Lemmey or Young will remain on the list by season end.
Maybe Lemmey takes a rookie spot

 

[The Bighouse]

2025 Lemmey
2026 Young
Contract status.

 

[Styxx]

Not sure why O'Farrell is getting any negative press, was only in the last draft

 

[Blue__Balls]

Not sure why O'Farrell is getting any negative press, was only in the last draft

What bad press?

 

[myblueroan]

Thanks Forty3
Sounds like you don't think he'll stay even though his heart is navy blue.
I heard Andy Maher on AdSEN
Saying he'd heard it was a done deal. But it wasn't clear if he meant us, or Aints were a done deal.

Did Andy sound happy or sad?

Some feedback from some genuine Carlton ITK people on Friday night

No one truly knows what TDK will do. Most believe he is still deciding and it’s 50/50. He loves Carlton but the money is massive

Docherty’s future is unclear. He is giving his best. Feel is if we are struggling by MSD he could easily retire

Austin & Co preparing for possible Two picks in MSD. Newman/Docherty/Fantasia status will determine. Games against Swans GWS could well determine

Rumour Cottrell has very bad injury?

Wright speaking with a lot of football people. Changes will happen

Lot of $$ being allocated to improve recruiting and development in 2026

Very happy with Rob McInnes. Benefits are showing

Cook already handed a lot of things to Wright

SC is great spot and we are into 1-2 very good players. If TDK leaves we will go hard on 2-3 players. Don’t expect us to go to draft. We have some more than handy FS, NG players and apparently draft isn’t great?

Many believe Doc Saad to retire by end of year. Newman will play on

Kemp injury was bad. Attitude great and already on gym. Wants to be ready by pre season which would be ahead of schedule

Surprised that Saad would be looking to retire? Still playing good football?

 

[myblueroan]

Saady to retire at season's end?
That would be a big loss.

Thanks for the information Soapy

Just what some believe. Hamstring injury’s taking there toll and has lost a yard?

Thanks for updates.

I don't like the sound of not going to the draft. Guess it depends on what the compo pick would be if TDK leaves.

If he does though, then a list refresh is required. We cannot go into next season with Pitto as #1 ruck with the midfield we have...

 

[Soapy V]

There is no appetite to remove Voss at all. Not even discussed

They know his strengths and weaknesses and believe they need to build around him with right people

He will be our coach in 2026

 

[sweethoney]

Just what some believe. Hamstring injury’s taking there toll and has lost a yard?

I found it a tad strange they gave him an extra before the season started.especially with the injuries he’d kept getting last year
