Rumour Bluemour Discussion XLI

#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 was hoping for the 2 firsts, 2 players and a 2nd rounder to enable us to trade out 10 and 11, but still pay for Dean.

Blues response should be to trade 22 for 33 and Khamis, valuing Khamis at 37.

and bring a mouthguard

And a helmet and NFL pads

 

[Blue1980]

The way it stands now, just call any deals off and see him day one of pre season.

 

[serenityNow]

Not excited by Florent (big salary dump) or Swans future first....they had a shitty 25' obviously..but don't forget this mob finished top of the ladder in 24' and with Charlie they could easily shoot straight back up. That pick may be worse then the cats pick.

Florent cops a bit of stick, but I have no doubt in my mind, that Florent is not only a walk up starter into our team, but he actually looks good in it with his pace. I think we forget just how slow we are lol.

The worst part of Florent is his contract. But as a player, he will be great.

Club has leaked the offer to try and force Geelong's hand. Geelong not out of it yet but most Curnow most likely Sydney bound.

 

[Ash05]

Something tells me that yesterdays trip to Shitney by Charlie, was just posturing. Cats now right back in the frame. Mackie putting a deal

together involving O'Sullivan or Dempsey. Maybe Humphrey, but their has to be a quality player involved. Who knows, going to be interesting,

to see what happens next.

O'Sullivan is going nowhere. No chance he is involved. Guaranteed

 

[Blue1980]

If we lose Charlie and don’t get Buku I wouldn’t mind seeing Gov in the forward line next year

Not sure why we would get rid of Gov. Just offer him bargain base pay, and if he gets a bigger offer elsewhere he can go. He is still valuable depth at worst.

 

[ferrisb]

Our counter offer should be to give them Mitch McGovern instead of Charlie Curnow

The Blue in the Iron Mask...

 

[CrippaTheGoat9]

 

[zeggie]

Take the pick 22 out of the deal and sign the papers. It's the best we'll get.

Geelong are out.

 

[ItsAllAboutMe]

Pick 22 being included blows up this deal and takes what seemed quite a straightforward transaction to now untenable, why would the swans risk it. Potentially us giving up 22 and then receiving 32 back might be okay except that we will need to use 22 for Harry Dean, no idea how the points work but imagine it would be a key piece.

 

[swuzzlebubble]

.

why would the swans risk it.

Because there's a day left and we're not going anywhere

 

[Big Red is back]

They also want pick 22 back...so yeah, nah. GAGF.

Okay that isn't going to work then prefer they keep Florent and we keep pick 22.

 

[AB_Blue]

Geelong are out.

 

[TerryWallet]

Judging by both Geelong and Sydney's offer, which are pretty large but not huge, i wonder how Charlie's medicals actually went. If his knee is pretty shabby, his ankles are pretty shabby.....

Every action has a basis for it.

That’s exactly what Swans are hoping for us to do

 

[goreds]

At least Charlie's issues are just lifestyle according to Brad Lloyd, and nothing to do with Voss.

Wouldn't trust anything coming out of that bloke's mouth!

This whole 'lifestyle' discussion doesn't really make sense. As a Sydney resident, I can confirm that it's a little bit bigger than Geelong, has 10 better beaches within a 20km radius but as a marquee player, the media will be all over him!

As I said, lifestyle reasoning is a load of garbage, oh, and don't forget he has a bride that will need to be in the spotlight!

 

[Juddy's Playground]

First Geelong have the audacity to offer us 2 early second rd picks and one late 2nd rd pick .
Sydney say we can Better that we’ll give you pick 11 ,F1 (16-20) Hayward and Florent for pick 22 and Curnow .

Other Clubs are treating us like fools and I hope we don’t play the Jester .

 

[Jatz]

Think Geelong will be all in on trying to get Marshall.

 

[Just Kreuzing]

Geelong are out.

Out of the competition race quicker than Kramer was on Seinfeld…..

 

[T2B_]

Pick 22 is untenable. You'd think the Swans would know this

That or clubs just think they can bend us over, which I guess given history is also possible

Their 2 firsts should do it, he is a bigger need for them than Curnow
