Rumour Bluemour Discussion XXXIX

[lily of laguna]

I get that, and trust me don't particularly like them, but that's entirely based on our ownership of them forty years ago! Time to move on folks

I don’t understand why you care whether some people hate st kilda?
It’s not for you, me or anybody to tell people how and what to feel.
Footy is tribal and we can express ourselves on a footy forum especially for same club supporters.

 

[Casual_Observer]

I know you're kidding, but I'd actually like to know, when has a superstar player ever jumped ship along with a coach/favoured assistant/head of football?

I can't recall it ever happening...

​

Everyone forgetting the greatest teacher's pet, Zac Dawson.​

 

[BrisbaneCFC]

Who's available from Port Adelaide?

I'll take Georgiades to replace Charlie.

 

[DangerousD]

And herein lies my concerns... Davies had a hand in that list...

But since we've got him now, I'll give him a go before I criticise.

Ordinary list isn’t true, they have been playing finals and challenging in finals pretty consistently for a long time.

I never thought they should have won a premiership but think they should have made it to a GF at least once.

If the list wasn’t great and they continually exceeded expectations, does that not point to great support, development and coaching off field?

 

[YeoShuey]

So based on reports, Curnow wants to leave because of Voss. Who would have thought?

 

[DangerousD]

Sydney aren’t stupid, if they genuinely want Charlie, I doubt they think they can get him without paying a big price.

 

[teagueyubeauty]

For people who have been around a fair while, do you remember the, conflict of interest argument around SOS being in charge of possibly recruiting his three sons and being in charge of their pay and contract lengths?

The idea that SOS could have possibly been conflicted was shouted down by most, after hearing the rumours the past week, does anyone look back and think that the conflict of interest argument might have actually held some truth?

A father supposedly offering his son a massive contract, well above his perceived worth, good for us, good for Jack, but to me, it still smells.

Also, could just be to raise his value for other clubs, but time will tell.

I’ve been thinking about this the last couple of days, what you’re saying is half my thoughts the other half is SOS is legit only trying to prove to Carlton there was never any conflict of interest. Its so wild I reckon it’s true

 

[The Old Dark Navy's]

Things are as we expected. Split playing group, some wanted Voss, some didn't.

If we are going to lose any players who showed poor application during the year, then get what you can.

If Voss was sacked, who would have left? Who knows?

 

[TommyPinch]

If Curnow wants to leave because Voss demands more effort (which most blues fans do) Curnow should make way and net us something very significant. The bloke can't just rest on his talent. It sends a poor message to the team. Our forward line will survive with out him. It could also hopefully force us to change how we go inside 50.

 

[StanleyBeren]

Fair play but it also goes in reverse, they don't get to bang on to me either!! It's just so patently one sided here, I never see the same vitriol against any other team. So your entire post is non-sensical. One moment you tell me not to have an opinion, then you tell me this site is entirely opinion based....

Um have you not read the Essendon thread?

TDK was probably leaving either way

Let's hope so...

 

[BlueTongue]

Who's available from Port Adelaide?

Chad Cornes

We could trade out one broken Charlie and get another one in from retirement?





... I'm JOKING!!!

 

[Blue_Fusion]

Everyone forgetting the greatest teacher's pet, Zac Dawson.

Yeah... what a superstar he was

 

[JustaBattler]

love the boys club hiring mates so they all stay comfortable together.

What connection does Wright have with Voss?
What connection does Wright have with the Port bloke ?
How much influence do you think Voss has over Wright ?

Just three obvious question that come to mind when I read your above.

Voss kept his job therefore He has too much influence. The rest... Idc. Clubs ****ed, can work for support for the first 5ime ever. Don't owe them any 'faith'. That includes Wright. Other good operators have become dogshit in navy.

So, proving there was no conflict of interest by proposing massive overs on his son's contract?
Yeah I see how that works ...

 

[The Bighouse]

They’re parasites propped up by the communist AFL equalisation policy. They are an irrelevant inconvenience. A pimple on the arse on the great game of Australian Rules football.

The new AFL decree “all players shall be ranked in order of 1-44 with designated salaries to each number on each club level st..and as an aside - managers, you can FRO”
Thank you, and goodnight!

No one owes anyone anything that isnt where I am coming from at all.

I'm prepared to give Wright the opportunity to do his job - I kinda figure he knows something about football - or he has just been a very lucky operator - for decades in multiple Clubs.

Peopel are putting their freak on abotu Charlie Mr 9 businesses in my portfolio Curnow. Curnow is not the same player of 22/23 anymore he isnt even the same person. silvagni is being nepoed into 2X what he is worth by his dada and TDK only left because it actually took 2X what he is worth to anyone else for him to go to that stain of a place St kilda.

chill dude the sun will come up tomorrow - pretty sure.

 

[ferrisb]

What to make of this rumour!

Charlie wanting out? Our Red Wedding?
Jack leaving Carlton? The wall has fallen?
Our injury list? More corpses than the White Walker army?

 

[The Bighouse]

Really hope GW stands up to Paul Connors and D’Orazio this trade period. Enough is enough

Two man enter. One man leave.
Rip him to pieces GW…one after another!
“We won’t be beaten” the anthem…

And the Ewoks victorious party tunes from the planet of Endor…

 

[zeggie]

So, proving there was no conflict of interest by proposing massive overs on his son's contract?
Yeah I see how that works ...

SOS trying to inflate his Pies contract, or Dogs as a backup.

 

[ferrisb]

David Hale from the hawks could be a good get as an assistant coach. Also has the GW connection.

Hale would be good.

Now we just need Pace....

 

[ferrisb]

Remember when SOS went after all things GWS for a while, and we were like the Giants depth list?
Hope that doesn't apply to Port ...

How will we ever top getting Francis Evans?!?

GOAT Adelaide!
