Rumour Bluemour Discussion XLI

Up to now, we haven't been even close to being blown away.

I am sure we can send them plenty of instructional videos on the topic to give them a hand so to speak.

Real question is how far apart we are after rejecting that offer

22

If this deal falls through and Charlie stays, the amount of booing he will receive next year will be deafening......he will walk into the change rooms and start to cry lol.....no life style here!!!

The surf at Merri Creek is better than Darling Harbour

Getting 2 first round picks and two very good players is a deal we are very happy with. As good as we could have ever hoped. Suits us perfectly in many areas and allows us to move forward. Massive trade period for us all around

PS if it happens

Very good player is an interesting way of putting it.

Not suggesting he can't be a decent player for us but you're talking about taking on a long term contract for a player that played VFL most of the year.

Feels like a decent sized gamble for me...and not one that should at all be connected to trading a very good key forward of the competition.

Scrap the 22 and were close. Demand 32 back for the audacity of asking for 22.

 

[Jatz]

If this report is accurate, then I'm happy that the Club is finally standing strong and sticking to its guns. If you want Charlie, youre going to have to really blow us away, if not he stays. I love it.

I doubt it's that so much as we're just rejecting the pick 22 part of it. I imagine the deal will end up pretty similar to the one we just rejected, minus that pick.

 

[We may never win again]

We have officially knocked back the offer from Sydney.

Love your work Chris!

They will fold and take the deal (even if it’s a late pic) would be crazy amount of effort to not go ahead now..

After the carry on on this board about Florent, I was shocked to find out that he played 16 games of AFL footy this season.

 

[JuddgementDay]

Close but deal will be held over to tomorrow night. Discussion over later picks going

Sorry but all I have. Out the back of Hoi An and internet poor

Khamis done

Thanks for the updates

BTW - Vietnam has better wifi & cheaper than here in Australia, so I’m surprised you are having poor internet service

 

[Blueing]

Nows the time to ask for Gulden lol....take it or leave is Shittny

 

[mrkyuss]

Guys you all know Florent is a salary dump? Why would bail out Sydney as part of this. Makes no sense, don’t want another McGovern contract on our books

 

[BrisbaneCFC]

How about because it's the smart thing to do for a change? Why TF would you just take on Florent's full salary for another 4 years, seemingly at a premium, when you may be able to negotiate something better?

FMD...just because we've made dumb contract decisions in the past doesn't mean we need to continue making them into the future.

We take on his contract because he's a good player who makes us better. He'll be a mainstay in the team just like he was for Longmire season after season.

Id like to think Chris Davies would use C4[2]Yo`DooR as his username.
Keep up the good work CD

 

[Banga19]

Florent is borderline steak knives. Would give up 22 if the second player was actually good (Roberts, for example).

I think Florent is a better fit for us than Roberts

 

[Blueing]

Who is this Florent you speak of?

 

[BrisbaneCFC]

Admittedly not to thrilled of the deal that has been floated for Curnow so far.

A motivated Charlie far outweighs what we can seemingly get for him. I’ve long viewed him as our best player, and has that X-Factor that can absolutely turn a game on its head, which we will, in my view be lacking now. Sadly, there’s been a total breakdown between Charles and the club now and will only be here as a last resort.

Hayward and the two first rounders are a decent start, but Florent we should give a miss, and go for a Campbell off half back with his exceptional kicking, which we’re crying out for.

Taking Florent is nothing but a salary dump, and would probably be in our bottom 6 of our 23.

Rubbish.

Sydney are trading with us for Charlie at the wrong time. Now we have Graham Wright and Chris Davies involved at the club. We won’t be pushed around anymore.

 

[mochacinolatte]

Florent is borderline b grader

 

[Cripps 'n' Blue Bloods]

We have officially knocked back the offer from Sydney.

The offer that existed... then didn't exist?
The deal as is, minus us giving up pick 22, is perfect and the most we will get.

Gives us 2x best 23 players and picks to deal with Dean, Ison and Walker. Puts players on notice about attitude. Makes the locker room better.
Win all 'round.
