    Bluemour Discussion Thread III

    Seriously that Marchbank proposed deal is a joke, when you consider Hawthorn got Mitchell for pick 14.

    Analysis 2016 List Management Discussion - Part 2

    Absolutely correct, the Blues have little chance of building a strong list at the top end if it giving high end picks away for unproven talent. Marchbank is worth obtaining no question for late first early early 2nd pick. We will have enough defenders, so do not see any need to pursue Corr...

    Rumour Bluemour Discussion thread - The sequel - I know what SOS did last Sumner

    Agree totally, this proposed trade is a step backwards in our rebuild, Marchbank is out of contract has a history of injuries, is worth 15-25, if Tuohy is traded that should have been sufficient to provide a fair trade. The other players mentioned so far has done nothing as yet to justify the...

    List Mgmt. 2015 AFL Draft - what type of players should we be looking at & who do we take? (Poll added)

    I very much doubt we would draft Collins before Mckay, whom the latter would seem to have much more upside especially when we have already drafted Weitering, really depends how it falls, but still think Burton is a huge chance at 11 or 19 if still there, fantastic mindset to succeed & huge...

    List Mgmt. 2015 AFL Draft - what type of players should we be looking at & who do we take? (Poll added)

    I would have thought a Jack Gunston type role, Burton would be top 6, if not for his injury, it is going to be a decision based on the medical opinion, not sure anyone on here is qualified to make that judgement. If the medical view is positive expect him to go in the 8-15 range, if not so...

    List Mgmt. 2015 AFL Draft - what type of players should we be looking at & who do we take? (Poll added)

    I am certain clubs including Carlton would have done their due diligence on Burton to make a informed decision if any of his injuries will impact his long term career, pretty sure there have been examples in years were highly ranked players have fallen due to some injury concerns e.g...

    List Mgmt. 2015 AFL Draft - what type of players should we be looking at & who do we take? (Poll added)

    We continue to be a highly unprofessional club if this type of information is being communciated to people outside the club the high level decision makers that would make this type of decision would probably be a select small group of people.

    List Mgmt. 2015 LIST Discussion - trades, free agency etc

    The issue is that we are three years away from being a quailty side, and that is on the provision that we make quality decisions in our recruitment of talent to the club, one of the many reasons we have gone backwards is that no one of the likes of Gibbs/Yarran/Murphy/Henderson have been able to...

    List Mgmt. Our List 2014 - Trade, De-list and Draft - (keep it all in here)

    No need to defend every decision the club makes, we have made errors in our player selection, l think we need to acknowledge this, our list would be in better shape if this was not the case.

    Better choice than Bootsma.

    List Mgmt. Our List 2014 - Trade, De-list and Draft - (keep it all in here)

    The problem we face is if we keep finishing mid-table we are not going to get access to the best young talent, we HAVE to make the hard decisions after this season, clean out the dead wood and be willing to trade for pick 1 so we have a young key forward we can build the structure around for the...

    List Mgmt. Our List 2014 - Trade, De-list and Draft - (keep it all in here)

    I suspect finishing outside the 8 in two consecutive years would be enough justification for significant list change, not sure were you would expect IMPROVEMENT to come from if the list is not turned over significantly.

    List Mgmt. Our List 2014 - Trade, De-list and Draft - (keep it all in here)

    We need to be looking longer term, we have NOT got a list capable of challenging in at least the the next two years, our list is clearly as good as we had thought, we have significant holes lack of quality in the midfield, which is being exposed with Judd not as damaging as two years, we need a...

    List Mgmt. Our List 2014 - Trade, De-list and Draft - (keep it all in here)

    You are making out that a pick 1 is a risk, most picks in the last 5-10 years the probability is very high in terms of high success, l know at a recruiter at another Afl club, and there is a consistent belief that Boyd will be a gun at this level, yes there are exceptions but Carlton are not...

    List Mgmt. Our List 2014 - Trade, De-list and Draft - (keep it all in here)

    It is quite rare for a club to be open to the idea of trading a pick 1, as GWS already have some quality young talls, Carlton would be negligent in their duty not to seriously investigate this, Boyd is going to be 10 year key forward, our list needs overhauling, some of our quality players to...
