#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!

Poor Florent.

He was happy a week ago at the Swans and now he’s dodging strays from the media and supporters saying his value is a salary dump.

 

[marcmurphy3]

the issue for me was what pressure that created on the salary cap

I dont think our cap will be a huge issue going forward anyway. Really only have McKay, Weitering and Walsh if he re-signs on big deals.

Williams and Cripps deals over in the next few years. TDK gone. Curnow likely gone.

Likely not to be contending so could struggle to attract anyone good on big money, plus most draft capital used on Walker.

 

[RPCB]

Their offer here is a bit cheesy!

Damn you, Typo!

 

[muzza99]

Oh that's right, it's also Khamis Day

We all need to Khamis the Farmis

 

[Blue and Silver]

I do feel for both Florent and Hayward who were settled, on long-term deals and are being pushed out.

That's the business I guess

But I thought he was a gun player that would be best 22 for any club....

I too think we’ll be very happy tonight, it’s sad to lose Charlie Curnow

, we move on , we done similare we let Fevola go a far superior footballer for poor attitude and application.
Let’s embrace the change and onwards and upwards.

 

[Blue and Silver]

When do they start letting trades go through again?

 

[Chemical]

Is the good news that we will be happy relating to Frank the Tank signing?

 

[Uncle Fester]

I would have liked Florent

ditto - but the salary cap impact seems too much along with the additional draft collateral

 

[zeggie]

2 firsts, a future second and Hayward would make me happy.

I'm not a gambler, but I'm betting this is the outcome too and I'd be very happy with that.

 

[RPCB]

Aphrodite , did you have to include the post about C4 deleting their account?

 

[Bonz]

Bummer. I liked Florent. Unless we get someone better (please not Rowbottom).

Rowbottom not moving as part of the trade now.

I imagine, Hayward, two first rounders and a swap of picks in Carltons favour.

 

[Matty411]

When do they start letting trades go through again?

2pm is when the embargo lifts, though the big ones will be between 7 and 7:35pm tonight.

 

[BIuebagger]

Florent has gone from worth a future second to a third now. Value dropping like a fly. Absolutely it’s about Syd trying to clear his salary

 

[Uncle Fester]

When do they start letting trades go through again?

2pm

 

[Stiffler's Dad]

Oh no you don't ... spill

Pick trades or Carlton win everything?

We're merging with Sydney and Charles gets to play CHF. Home ground is Canberra and Lake Burley Griffin is getting a wave machine.

 

[Manhattanite]

If we end the day with Hayward, Humphrey, a second round pick (from Suns), a future first and a future second round pick (from Swans), Khamis and still hold pick 22 that’s a great outcome. That means we can still pick up Dean and Ison - and have also added Ainsworth Chesser and Reidy. Plus Jagga to debut.

 

[BlueLocke]

Sydney look a bit silly with Florent now. He's almost a free hit for whichever club wants him. Can't imagine he'll be at the Swans next year.

THat is my ideal outcome tbh

But what about Butters?.

maybe he still comes to us but on a separate trade for much less trade value

we should offer them a 5th round pick and they pay his salary for the duration of the contract...

If we end up with a haul like that after this draft/trade period I'll start clearing areas outside Ikon for the statues of our Football Department

 

[Stiffler's Dad]

C4 - can you please confirm that Essington will NOT win this trade period.......

That request has no Merrett at all!
