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 can remember another McGuire showing commitment like that with a certain T. Lockett!

Wonder if Xander took the pic????!!!

Would GC take Swans 1st this year for Humphrey? Could be a part of the curnow deal still

 

[Juice030103]

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

We defs do not have a lot of GOOD forwards like him

Does anybody know if Bailey Humphrey was a Carlton supporter growing up? I saw an article where he said he was huge Patty Cripps fan growing up, and his biggest thrill was playing against him in his first game. Not that this will impact on his decision

Cats fan but was also a huge Cripps fan

Put it this way, if he doesn't get a chance, I think our club is on a crash and burn mission.

How so? He's not big enough to play on the gorillas and not overly agile. Every club could have taken him last year and in this years mid season draft but none did. Plenty of not quite senior players win the reserves best and fairest, because they play in the reserves all year. Might get a look in the SSP period but only because O'Farrell got hurt. I'd personally hope that Dean can play that 3rd defensive tall for quite a few games. Throw in Kemp, Khamis and Young and there's a bit of cover there.

We better be going all out to secure Bailey Humphrey, would be great for us.

Humphrey about to be the hottest subject on Big Footy

 

[carlton_99]

Been reported Dees and Pies have met with him. We have been listed as one of the teams interested but no meeting...?

 

[WalshistheGOAT]

i had a browse of the Sydney Board trade thread the other night re the Curnow trade. As soon as i read that Florent and Hayward are housemates and business partners, it seemed pretty clear to me they could be part of the Curnow trade together.

Carlton have long been interested in Hayward and now seem interested in Florent. The 2 first rd picks, Hayward and Florent would seem a logical trade for a wantaway but contracted Curnow.

I am a fan of Hayward. Im not a fan of Florent. But the Club seem a fan of both.

Dont think we can do better than that for Charlie, and we do badly need the 2 firsts. So it depends if we really really want to keep Charlie when he clearly doesnt want to be coached by Voss anymore.

Id say the above would now be close to a done deal. Imo

Reckon that will be exactly what happens. Both very durable so club would be thinking they could both be still playing well by the time we next push for a flag.

 

[marcmurphy3]

Hawks can't get Humphries and Merrett done and they would be massively shafting Merrett switching priorities. No chance.
