Rumour Bluemour Discussion XL - ‘Silly Season’ in full swing 😱

#BUMP from February


Re: 'Alleged' rumours resurfacing ...

Folks, this is the way things are here.

Posters are responsible for what they post. Moderators can not attest to the accuracy or otherwise of any rumour posted.

Moderators will intervene for a couple of reasons.

1. If a thread is threatening to be derailed because of a post.

2. If invested parties request the removal of material.

None of this draws a conclusion as to the accuracy or otherwise of the original post.

There is no need to further speculate. What will be will be.

Also, you need to remember that this thread like all parts of this forum is bound by the rules of poster conduct. If you want to express skepticism towards a rumour that's fine, but having a crack at posters who are contributors to this forum is simply not on and will be acted upon.

Simply put, don't be a dick.

Thanks all!

I’m loving watching St Kilda’s recruiting. It won’t get them anywhere. Just gold!

 

[Jatz]

How on earth are St Kilda affording all these player? I get the banking of salary but there are now several large contracts. Their depth is going to fall off an absolute cliff.

 

[Blue Doormat]

Linton St Bank at it again

Meanwhile the other Saints players are getting…

 

[Blue_Fusion]

If Stains give up their 1st pick for Flanders, less chance Dean will be bid on before our first pick...

Maybe back ending these contracts?

Some will have to be front ended, the other back ended I'm guessing. It'll still leave nothing left over throughout though.

Can see why the existing players like Wilkie will want out.

Also removes the risk of them bidding on Dean early.

If they are offering Pick 7, we need to walk away quick smart. Although, we could offer Pick 9 since it will be eaten up anyway. He's not a pressing need for us.

 

[Canyouhearthedrums]

St kilda are insane. But hey they are having a crack i guess

I’m genuinely starting to believe that NWM has told them he is 100% gone after these two years, and they are just going balls in to win a flag in that window. Some of these contracts won’t look quite as bad if they have his $2 mill off the books from 2018 onwards

900k and pick 7? GC should sign the paperwork now. More ammunition for Charlie as well if they are serious with us or remotely interested.

Surely Suns have to send something decent with Flanders. Pick 7 for Flanders is ludicrous

Maybe but they would have pitched to Flanders that they can get a deal done

 

[Coops93]

thanks Aph

walshy noticable bigger than the others...

Bigger than Cow, even. Bulking up, maybe some extra muscle to support the back?

They should sign that immediately irrespective of anything to do with Charlie.

Pick 7 for Flanders is ridiculous.

 

[Marc Shmurf 3]

My take: Charlie stays, but we should let him go. Not the type of person/player we want around the club moving forward.

 

[zeeCFC]

If Saints trade pick 7, the bid for Dean will only come from the Bulldogs

 

[GoBlues!]

Suns can ontrade 7 and Walter for Curnow, would work for us.

 

[4flagsin5yrs]

JUH is much cheaper than Charlie and that rumour is circulating.

Much lower cost, high risk but with a potential high return over a longer period.

JUH risk is way higher than "high"....

 

[KohPhi]

Are the pieces in the 'Charlie' puzzle starting to potentially take shape??

 

[The Coach]

Why would Charlie stay and knuckle down when he can take the easy option of having clubs fawning over him without having to do anything - this trait is why we must trade the 29yo

 

[Sector 7G]

They should sign that immediately irrespective of anything to do with Charlie.

Pick 7 for Flanders is ridiculous.

Draft picks are over rated and this is a weak draft. Flanders went 11 in a strong draft and has shown solid output as a mid last year. Not too different to the deal for Cerra

Essendon are a chance with one of their picks

Did the Saints hire Geelong's accountant?

A strong core will support the back not bigger biceps. Looks huge at the moment but that will melt away once the running starts.

AFL house's accountant.
