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!

It’s not smart to trade a player for under’s when you have 4 years contract leverage.

We shouldn’t fold like a deck of cards on the assumption that it’s all down hill for Charlie.

Especially for picks in a year as impacted as this one

If he has a strong year with us next year & he still wants out, teams in the window in need of a key forward will come for him as hard as ever.

Even better - next years draft includes young Mr Walker & will be less impacted by Northern Academy Disease.

Then there’s Butters…might be nice?

Who’s suggesting unders?
Post literally states “extract max value”

What if we can’t “extract max value now”, as you said.

“Now” could be where you fall down - that’s my point.

Talent, athleticism, skill, affordable and we have cap space for at least the next 2 years?

Who would you suggest instead?

Are you suggesting Shiel has talent, athleticism and skill?

Don't know what Shiel you're watching.

Who the cats gonna offer for Charlie now

Who the cats gonna offer for Charlie now

Tell Geelong we don't want Shannon Neale

 

[HereComesJuddy]

Wonder what Geelong offer up for Charlie after this display… definitely needed a full forward to tear this game apart in the 1st half

 

[Jimmae]

No one's suggesting we put him in the centre square on $800k+ as a key mid.

He would be a massive upgrade on Motlop, Durdin, and Fantasia, and barely above AFL average pay, all while we seem set to send almost $4m of salary out the door.

Their midfield is mostly role players and is of far more concern.

 

[BigBreakfast]

Drives the price up for us

 

[Lukeblueboy]

Max Holmes.
Come on down

Shiel is a massive upgrade on exactly no one.

Not saying he wouldn't be better than those you named... but that's a pretty low bar...

But he is no massive upgrade on anything mate.

Now the real season starts.

 

[GT619]

elite small forwards and deep midfield win premierships

They are cooked. Danger is near the end. Cameron likewise. Average midfield and no ruckman.

 

[CaptainCharisma]

Now the real season starts.

Now that all this silly football stuff is done it’s time to win the trade period and start huffing the hopium all over again…

Fire up the Bluemour machine!

 

[Blue and Silver]

Look forward to the aftermath of boozy GF parties leaking all sorts of rumours

 

[BlueTongue]

They are cooked. Danger is near the end. Cameron likewise. Average midfield and no ruckman.

And all is well.

Even tho it’s not my preference and I wouldn’t do it I’m not against trading Charlie as I was a week ago BUT I hope we don’t accept that Sydney offer we can get much much more.

Sydney offer? have I missed that?

The two firsts and Will Hayward.

The two firsts and Will Hayward.

Is that an official offer though?
Or is it just the musings of us BigFooty List Managers??

According to Jon Ralph it’s official and HereComesJuddy it’s already done.

 

[ctwenty1]

I think HCJ’s point is that a trade will get done

Not necessarily taht trade, but that a trade will get done

 

[KohPhi]

I'd want a little more than that if im being honest.. reckon it's close though..

Watching the 95 grand final yet again and Michael Sextons first quarter was bloody huge!!
