Rumour Bluemour Discussion XXXIX

[HereComesJuddy]

Losing 2 players that went for the money is ok by me. As long as we get 2 x Band 1 compos. We will be better in the long run rather than pouring money into those 2

 

[Matty411]

Part of me - removed from the emotion and Navy of it all - is very much "Well bloody done, Jack. I don't know how you've done it, but you've pulled an extra ~$1.5m out of your arse here. Take it and run, son."

I'm sure Grace is happy - not to mention his player manager.

 

[Bluebag13]

First, I respect and value your opinion more than almost anyone on here

If my posts are having a negative impact on others on this forum then I apologize. It's never been my intention. I'm disheartened to read that this may be the case

If my views - my opinion only - are that bad and my language that definitive then I shouldn't be posting. I'll take my leave

All the best

Just to add on to everyone else. Would be sad to see you go.
Was pretty much you and Stamos that that kept me coming back for a long time.

Worth mentioning there is a heap of others that I love reading, all with different opinions.
Hearing the Jack news, has provided me with such positive emotions I just want to dish out the love haha

 

[Sam The Doc]

Sam Edmund reporting clubs believe the saints offer is actually $900k x 5 years.

Hopefully, still seeing 850k being mentioned

If St Kilda were a football (soccer) team, they’d be Napoli. Just like Napoli have a Manchester United support group with Hojlund, McTominay and Lukaku. St Kilda have a Carlton support group with Dow, Carroll, Stocker, TDK and Jack Silvagni.

Napoli have won 2 scudetti in 4 years

StKilda have won........?

So, there it is. Do people feel differently now about JSOS knowing that he's just leaving for the bigger pay packet and to meet up with Steve again?

If he was going for success, surely you take the Pies or Dogs offer.

I'm not convinced that adding Aleer, Flanders and TDK turns them into a contender.

Still, give us a first and call it a day.

All the best, Jack.

Well NAS seems to think they will win their 2nd flag within the next 2 years (source: CH7 news last night)

 

[Coona Blues]

Completely agree. Cornes on Agenda Setters posted some ‘highlights’ of the ball use to curnow going inside 50. Deplorable. Get some decent kicks in, go after a half back who can create some scoring chains and Charlie will be happy

Garbage. We keep knocking the delivery, how about we look at how the “target” presents? Waving an arm in the air and saying kick it to me hasn’t cut it for nearly 50 years.

 

[Blues177]

Bulldogs would have been my pick - possibly just a good key defender away from contention - but at least he didn't end up at the Pies.

Agree with the Footscray pick, getting Cody Weightman back from injury too.

 

[BIuebagger]

If they keep him on the park, fair play. But if they don’t, and he breaks down, can predict the knives will be out for him. Not worth 900k. Give us that Band 1 compo please and thank you! Best thing is he isn’t going to the Pies.

It was a bad reference.

 

[CarltonFixCulture]

shout out to xDQ82x who called the Jack to Saints move - as fact - before anyone……..including journos
We are lucky to have their intel around here

 

[Aphrodite]

The universe is slowly turning - it's where Carlton players go to retire........

Our old dumping ground!

Pretty clear how he did it - helps when your old man is the list manager handing out the $$

If Jack breaks down and/or loses form, the knives will be out from their supporters. He will be like any other player for the first time in his career. The Silvagni name means something at Carlton. It means jack shit at St Kilda.

Great Scot!!

 

[Aphrodite]

Just can’t get around Jay-Z Clark. Would like him totally off Fox Footy.
Reminds me of a chipmunk.

That blonde man has already won more league titles in his career than the other blond man (TDK) will win in his own.

This is not just directed at you, but the discussion in general.

When has a team ever overpaid in a trade deal with players? Gulden alone would be overpaying (given age) and weakens their current team.

Adelaide overpaid for Gibbs, WC overpaid for Kelly, but these deals always involve picks, which don't tangibly weaken the team (at least at the time).

The only way I see us getting a player that is at least the equal of Charlie, is via a third (or even fourth) club. Sydney would have to conjure pick 2 from WC, then "overpay" us with picks 2 and 9 and whatever. We then overpay Port for Butters (for example). We would only do the first deal, if we knew the second one was in place.

You might get overpaid in young talent, like we arguably did by giving Kennedy to WC, but that takes years to evolve. For that to happen, you would think GC or GWS would have to be involved.

That sounds good, I agree with you draft picks and then try and get Butters. Don't really care about Charlie he has made it clear he does not want to be at Carlton ok then piss off then, but wait he is contracted for another 4 years so tough t***ies. He needs to grow up, still has the maturity of a 15yo.

He is pushing so hard to leave Carlton even willing to take a pay cut, pity he doesn't take a pay cut at Carlton and give it his all after all we have done so much for him, all those injuries and we stuck fat with him, now he just wants to piss us off.

There is no coming back from this from Charlie, or is there?

 

[mrkyuss]

Can’t wait for AFL not to give us band one compo even though he is getting paid more than Battle.

 

[The Flying Doormat]

2 X first round compo picks sets up an interesting trade week. Part of me wants to add Charlie into the trade mix just for shits and giggles.

 

[Bluebag13]

this was the post I was referring to

Yep done deal

 

[JoeyPBLUES]

Hahaha - was thinking the same thing BUT... it's actually a good hypothetical. Like what happens if say we get 2 band 1s & then 2 x 1sts for trading Charlie?

 

[Benaly28]

Just remember someone got paid for this...

 

[Juice030103]

If we do get pick 9 and 10 as our compo picks, they will both be traded as we would be forced to use those picks to match points for Dean

Wouldn’t mind trading up in the draft with those 2 picks and get a top 3 pick

Apparently the Bombers are having a crack at Zac Bailey - surely with the cap space we have just freed up and 2 top 10 picks we could at least ask the question
