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

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!

Suns have screwed Humprey over by chasing Petracca.

How so? They essentially are playing the same role

 

[The Blue Weirdo]

I don’t think any of the clubs you mentioned will get him

Yes, because another top 6 club will get Humphrey.(like Allen, Draper, Petracca etc. etc.)
And this will continue to happen until the league introduces equalisation restrictions.

 

[Accidental genius]

Personally don’t want to get rid of Acres one so so season and everyone wants him out the door still need some experience in that area

His shockers are balanced by his occasional sensational acts

 

[Red_man2008]

So with the Jack compo being 19, basically it’ll be one F/S out, another one in.

Except a pick in the 60s for Jack 10+ years later and we get Dean (an actual defender).

Some Sydney fans reckon with GC and supposedly Geelong out of the race, it weakens our bargaining power on Curnow. Now they’re saying pick 9 and Florent would be enough. Honestly, I’ve heard it all—he’s contracted, and we’re under no pressure to take an unders deal.

Exactly with 4 years left on his contract we have the option of very heavy Vendor Bidding.

 

[Premiership Quarter]

I think our second rounder will go for Khamis with maybe something coming back.

Future picks for Reidy and Chesser

Khamis third rounder, not even getting a game, Chesser 2nd rounder this year or probably next Reidy 4th or 5th

, but he’d prefer to remain at the Swans.

reading that transcript is seems he is more wanting to come to us than stay despite the opening line saying he's open but would prefer to stay.

Hayward told Code Sports he “definitely wouldn’t request a trade” but is prepared for a call from his manager in the event that Sydney “wanted to get rid of me”.
“You don’t want to be somewhere where you’re not wanted,” Hayward said.

“There are not many other clubs that I’d want to play for. I obviously spoke with Carlton last year, I really like Vossy.
“But the club hasn’t asked me, so as far as I’m concerned, I’ll still be here next year, hopefully playing with Charlie.”

 

[Blue__Balls]

Yeah, just playing diplomacy in case the deal falls over - he wouldn't want to be going back for preseason with it looking like he wanted out.

 

[CrippaTheGoat9]

Bit flat now about next season. The thought of Humphrey had me excited and optimistic.

If we lose Charlie for a couple picks and Hayward that doesn’t excite me one bit.

 

[TENACIOUS]

Personally don’t want to get rid of Acres one so so season and everyone wants him out the door still need some experience in that area

Thought, he wanted to go back to WA?

You’d think Chesser & Hollands will be competing for Acres spot.

 

[DrTrain]

Trading 19 for 24 and 27 from Essendon would be good for us. We could use the extra points and picks.

 

[mOccO77]

I would suggest that the main crux of a deal between Melb and the Suns is agreed to. A contracted star player in Trac wouldn't nominate one club if there wasn't guarantee that a deal was done. This news happens to fall on the same day where we are told of the seriousness of Humphrey looking elsewhere. It's pretty obvious what is happening here...

This! Deal is agreed between the two teams.

 

[Bamboo Harvester]

Khamis third rounder, not even getting a game, Chesser 2nd rounder this year or probably next Reidy 4th or 5th

Our 2nd rounder is currently pick 38, our 3rd is pick 46.

Reidy trade may just as easy as Reidy, pick 49 and 67 for Carlton's pick 46 and 64.

Pick 49 goes to WBD for Khamis, although they may ask for more.

Chesser may be a bit more 'problematic', but I'd imagine future pick swaps could get the deal done fairly easily if it's not part of some mega trade.

 

[CrippaTheGoat9]

 

[BlueTongue]

How so? They essentially are playing the same role

Doesn't that ^ answer your own question? Not that I mind if Humphrey is forced out and we get to pick him up!

 

[Blue By Blood]

This! Deal is agreed between the two teams.

Maybe. But why would Humphrey want to leave a team who played finals and is on the rise for a team going full scorched earth rebuild losing Trac, Oliver, May, McVee etc? We would be a more attractive destination than the Dees. Albeit, I think he stays at GC. Think with JUH likely making his way to GC they're more likely to release one of their forwards.

 

[BlueTongue]

His shockers are balanced by his occasional sensational acts

I'd rather he played off the bench (now SUBs are gone) and Cotters played on the wing.
That way his shoulder gets a rest and he comes in fresh.

 

[Lukeblueboy]

Not a bad option tbh. I’d offer him midfield role.
I see him like Flanders, is more a mid that can’t get in for obvious reasons

 

[Blue and Silver]

Makes sense. Petracca is taking his spot

 

[SurreyBlue]

Obviously a lie. Nobody likes Voss.

Not true. They love him - because they can get away with whatever they want. Well, they could previously.....

 

[Bamboo Harvester]

Ethan Phillips training at club. Hope they pick him up. Good Silvagni replacement

Cheers Soapy, reckon he'd be a good option.....was the general down back for our VFL side all year.

Also, given he's a delisted free agent for life, I assume we can sign him anytime without him having to nominate for the draft.

Do Not Want. We have a plethora of forwards, need a Mid/Fwd
