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!

Translate Mackie's comments to they're not serious about bringing in Charlie. There's no other explanation.

Off to the Swans you go King Charles... hopefully Cox doesn't get mad at your lack of professionalism...

Or they're trying to get Sydney to cool on upping their offer... and then come late with a tiny improvement on their first offer.

I’ve refrained from posting this to the No Discussion thread, but enough time has passed and no-one else has done it

OK....take a deep breath and keep your pants on.

No

If we come away with Cheeser Ainsworth Reidy Khamis and one of Rowbottom/Hayward/Campbell plus a First Rounder to add to TDK to turn into Top 4-5 pick plus F1 to help get Walker plus some picks for Dean Ison along with Salary Cap room for future and only lose Charlie & Durdin (and some later picks) that is a fantastic trade period and sets us up for next decade

We have achieved what we set out to do and really adds to our youth

I would be very happy

Ben Camporeale is already with us.

Ben Campo but with a much better kick and more speed …. My faith in the Campos making it is low (of course, I’m hopeful, but it feels more wishful especially re Lucas). I don’t think we should be relying on any expectation of them making it to influence list management decisions.

Pick 19 is their 1st pick this year (so far)

Mackie is such a git.

‘still confident of getting the deal done’, even though we’re going to offer up nothing even remotely close to what it’ll take.

God I despise the arrogance at Geelong. Looking forward to Smith destroying that club from the inside.

I hate geelong more than Collingwood and Essendon. There arrogant cheats that get away with anything and the absolute best at hiding shit to

I meant add something insulting like a 2027 3rd haha

Mackie is a piece of work!

Just wanted to make this observation, but looking at comments in Durds thread, lots of love, but in a past player thread and here regarding a current player, I see more negative comments. Just a random reflection on the players. I always wish the best for anyone who has worn the Navy Blue (especially for types like Durdin). But it's hard with others sometimes. Could say more, but...

 

[Bamboo Harvester]

Hey Mackie, so you tried to lowball us on Charlie, and Austin politely told you to GAGF.

So now your attention is back to Rohan Marshall. I wish you all the best trying to lowball SOS

Campbell and Hayward would be good gets. Suddenly the depth on the list would look much better

 

[teagueyubeauty]

This is one deal Id rather SOS negotiating. Austin is good at his job, but has rarely shown he can get overs in a trade.

Thought Wright and Davies would be in the negotiations as well?

Reading between the lines you’re against Charlie returning to the group at all costs?

 

[ctwenty1]

I keep coming back to the Crows off season last year - Cumming, Peatling & Neal-Bullen aren't A graders but were quality mature players that could immediately improve the Crows - I think Ainsworth and Chesser can play that role.

Ainsworth yes - chesser Im not banking on because of injury

What we get with Charlie will also help that, although losing charlie is a negative

Was the offer to Fly for head coach or a director of coaching/mentoring role to support Voss?

Offering pick 21 to West Coast for pick 1 because a first round pick is a first round pick

Who’s going to be the genius who is going to post this in the no discussion thread and get themselves banned?

Happy to hear Florent doesn't want to move to Vic.. now we can stop hearing his name thrown in.

Hayward, this year and next years first + Roberts/Campbell gets it done for me. Not interested in Rowbottom hes a nice player but not for our list.

 

[Michael Jezz]

Fly is not the right fit for Carlton.
His feel good persona suits an established culture
I really believe Buckley built the fire (the game plan)- Fly just ingited the fire.
I don't see him doing the necessary hard yards and the his s-grin press conferences will wear thin within a month

Your opinion or just putting it out there B&S?

 

[Juddrockz]

Come on Sydney hurry up ffs!

Charlie,Trac,Merrett,Oliver trades will all be dragged out as long as possible just to keep the Trade period as exciting as possible.
The media is just leaking what they want and when they want it to drop.
Charlie did a medical with Cats and Swans and not one person from the media knew/saw anything about it? I dont believe that!
Meanwhile theyre dropping pics of Humphrey and Butters out an about.
You can't tell me the media wouldn't be hanging out in rubbish bins following Charlie trying to grab a scoop.
Its all part of the Trade Period,drip feed listeners and people interested.

Ive always found your posts genius like RPCB

Hearing this around the traps

I do know that Nick Austin prioritises players that can and like to tackle … this suggests to me Rowbottom could be on his wish list.
