Rumour Bluemour Discussion XXXIX

[RPCB]

Man you are obsessed with us finishing last. If that happened i don't think I could support the club anymore. It would be so depressing and destroy our culture. Give it up mate

If every player buys in and with the talent on the list, we should be finishing 7-8 wins above whoever finishing last. We will probably have more wins after 10 rounds than whichever team finish bottom at the end of the next year.

Walsh won't be going anywhere.
l don't believe your post at all .

Absolutely zero chance after his recent comments, but we do need to lock him down this offseason which I believe we will

Update after last night's game

Walter, pick 6, Fiorini.

Is that a pick swap for TDK pick or straight out pick 6?

You sure about that ? Outside of WC I could find an argument for all other teams to be above us next year .

 

[The Old Dark Navy's]

I've seen a couple of posts displeased with the notion of Carlton trading our two compo picks for West Coast's Pick 2 again.

We will lose the TDK compo pick anyway due to a bid on Harry Dean coming early. Isn't it a no brainer to get ahead of it and use the pick? We can use it in the draft, but also use it to trade for an established player.

The only issue is we will need more points for Dean so other player trades will need to happen.

I could find an argument for all teams to be below us next year. Is their a point to your pessimistic outlook? Or are you just rage baiting for clicks?

Fiorini is the exact opposite of our plan to trade for players that can kick and don't miss half the season through injury.

If it’s Walter, Flanders and pick 6 for TDKs compo pick and Charlie then I’m in like Flynn, chuck in Rosas as the butter knife

If it destroys our culture it needs to be seriously considered …

 

[passmark]

never go back Josh.

Maybe he thinks it will be different with GW in charge?

 

[Gointocarlton]

Fiorini would be the worst kick in our team....

Is that even possible?

 

[Aphrodite]

They'll be right. They have a prime Liam Ryan to win them the flag next year.

[Wickzki]

So….. was Josh Fraser a good coach for us or is this just more weirdness from our club with hiring old coaches back?

Fantastic development coach

Josh is the coach who took Liam Jones from abysmally failed forward and transformed him into a very good defender saving his career

He's held in high regard across the league.

 

[Ninja Worrier]

I also reckon Josh was out first VFL coach to take raising the quality of our non-AFL listed VFL players seriously

Thank you. I guess I needed to be told this. I hope the rumour is spot on then.

Prob doesn’t need to be endlessly brought up (no laughing emoji required).

Yeah, but when they finish 14th you'll stick around...

And there it is too... "destroy our culture" ... again I'll ask... what culture?

 

[reubsblues]

Isn’t Fiorini an unrestricted free agent and free to join any club he wants?

Need something more than Walter and #6.

Powell or Davies

Pick 2 gets us Dursma...very enticing

This was under the NB’s alignment, yeah?
VFL Blues kicked off in ‘20 (was there even VFL that year vs scrimmages?) or ‘21?

Assuming we wait for AFL seasons to be over for finalists before announcements are made, even if their VFL is over?

 

[AB_Blue]

Powell or Davies

That number 35 small forward goes alright as well

 

[Blue_Fusion]

Our compo picks will be #10 (TDK) + #21 (Jack) ...

No way WCE are going to give us #2 for that...

 

[Coona Blues]

That number 35 small forward goes alright as well

Budarick is a gun. Great youngster. Shunted from defence with the acquisitions, reinvented. Multiple ACL’s the go slow.

 

[The Old Dark Navy's]

The only negative is that scribes think Duursma would slot into Pick 7 in last year's draft. Doesn't mean he won't be elite though.

What if West Coast take him at #1 though? We take the ruck forward or make the next 5 bids until we get a free player.

 

[The Bighouse]

Budarick (?)
Was actually a running defender before ACL’s (x 2 IIRC) and lack of spots with JN & DR arriving + Powell & Uwland..
