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!

For me it's all come from non-Carltkn people.

Lucky we still have Wicki-leaks thanks to Wickzki …

 

[Gw2_James]

Yeah i spoke to bailey Humphreys best mates mate, said he's definitely coming to Carlton

 

[RPCB]

Bad news is the trade period ends in 2 days, 14 hours and 33 minutes.

Good news is we can all go back to being friends in 2 days, 14 hours and 33 minutes.

 

[TENACIOUS]

Huge 3 days for the club.
We could really set our future up.

 

[teddy-hopkins]

For a Pick 3 who's been in the system 3 years and not done much, I suspect Walter will be a bust.

Compares well to Harry at the same age... or Josh Kennedy. Or many other tall forwards.

I don't think anyone knew Durdin was leaving before the deal was done. That basically never happens these days.

Good to see we can keep something quiet at last.

 

[tarczonandjane]

I’ve seen a few posters suggesting a trade which ends up netting us both Humphrey and Hayward.

I realise most of these posts are guesses rather than rumours. But my question is on whether there is value in bringing in both players?

Don’t get me wrong… they are players who would add to our list. And I have them as different types of half forward. But after we’ve already taken Ainsworth, my gut feel is the other two would be overkill in that part of the ground, especially when picks could allow us to target other areas of need. Happy to be corrected by more insightful observers of both players.

And I don’t remember anyone linking us to Ainsworth until a day or two before the trade either.

 

[The Blue Weirdo]

Curnow for #11, F1, F2 and Hayward

#11, #22 for Humphrey?

Would mean Curnow and #22 out for Humphrey, Hayward, F1, F2.

Nice...but we're goanna be chock-a-block with handy forwards.
Harry
Hok
Kemp
Buku
Moir
FRANKIE
Humphrey
Hayward
Eli
Ainsworth
Williams
Mots
Fog

Flynn
White

A bloody good, mobile forward half logjam starting to form.
Hayward doesn't really need to be part of the Charlie trade, just more future picks.
Also, can't see Jagger being squeezed in here.

 

[X-Factor]

At Carlton?

Yep was certain he would be in navy blue next year

 

[Bongo Drum]

Skipworth to Carlton confirmed.

[athensblue]

Read anything into that

Aleer the leek in navy blue

 

[CCurnow3picks]

Yeah i spoke to bailey Humphreys best mates mate, said he's definitely coming to Carlton

So you spoke to Bailey Humphrey…!

 

[mrkyuss]

The Bear seems as popular as Ferris Bueller with so many mates chatting on the situation to random Bjg Footy types !

 

[JPZ SKOLIEZ]

Aleer is a KPD... Buki is the medium/3rd tall utility player.

Aleer would be a great addition but with $700k a year package, we probably need to spend those dollars elsewhere like Mid/Forwards. With Dean coming in and O'Farrell coming back I think we should be fine

 

[chickendippas]

Humphrey, Hayward and a F1 while keeping points for our bids this year would be an ‘offer we can’t refuse’ type outcome

I tend to agree, even more so if we give Elijah a reprieve.

 

[manang magoos]

Apparently Moe has a reputation as being a bit on the dodgy side in Victoria.

Moccasins on Everyone

 

[JPZ SKOLIEZ]

What about Sydney offer Hayward, McInerney, Pick 11, F1. Carlton give Curnow + F2?

Only have 2027 f2 port have our 2026 2nd rounder

 

[morningbrown]

Humphrey would be such a game changer, can’t remember the last time we had a player in his role with so much potential.

 

[Rustica]

Hayward McKay Motlop
Ainsworth Kemp Humphrey

With Evans, Lij and Williams rolling through
