    Rumour Bluemour Discussion XL - ‘Silly Season’ in full swing 😱

    A lot of talk about Ollie Florent on here. Probably some context needed. Florent is 27 and was not in Swans best 22 for much of the year. I don't mind him as a player but he has another four years on his contract. Four years. What do you think we'd get for Jordan Boyd? He's contracted for...

    Rumour Bluemour Discussion XXXIX

    Pretty sure Flanders going to Melbourne. Good relationship with the new coach.

    Rumour Bluemour Discussion XXXIX

    If trading with GC is real, Walter would have to be the cornerstone of that. I don't think GC see him as no good, they are spoilt with an embarrassment of riches. Getting Charlie will be amazing for their marketing. He will be POD forward and put bums on seats. They should see themselves as in...

    Rumour Bluemour Discussion XXXIX

    Getting Treloar might be a very good idea. Fair chance he is free. High possession winner. Point to prove. Also, we can structure a game plan of which he is a part (when fit) and pass that role on to Walker from 2027 or 2028, whenever he's ready. Clubs are sometimes obsessed with youth...

    Rumour Bluemour Discussion XXXVIII

    For what it's worth (on the rumour), I'd asked the person I spoke to specifically about Elijah because I rate him so highly and want us to keep him. This person believes he will not be retained. Said we'd tried very hard with him but believes it hasn't and won't work. It's only a rumour but...

    No Discussion Bluemour File *Rumours Only - NO DISCUSSION*

    Not earth shattering, but I was told by someone close to the situation to not expect Elijah to be at the club next year. Others have previously suggested this. I was told there have been issues, but NOT the type routinely speculated about online. I don't know what they are. Simply put, this...

    Rumour Bluemour Discussion XXXV - 'Loopy' Season has begun

    Let me be clear: I am not an ITK and do not proclaim to be. I rarely post, mostly read. One of the chief complaints over the years has been the attacks on people who post information that others dispute/challenge/attack and debate over. I'm not big noting. I simply passed on something I know. I...

    Rumour Bluemour Discussion XXXV - 'Loopy' Season has begun

    Rumour as fact (I assume this is not public yet): Cripps is already in Brisbane. A delegation of Carlton people went up last night. Cripps is one of them. Spotted this morning in Queensland.

    No Oppo Supporters Essendon* - 6900 & Beyond - Carlton Posters ONLY!

    To be fair (and all jokes aside), I don't think Essendon's recruiting is the worst. Players like Nick Martin and Scott Draper were great pick-ups. He does have an eye for talent but has put together an unbalanced list. They've invested hard in the wrong mids and not prioritised key position...

    List Mgmt. 2023 List Management

    Sorry, long post about Paddy Dow. Probably best placed in here. I watch the Magoos pretty much every week (the ones don't give me much to get excited about). I've wanted Dow to succeed from the outset and always kept a close eye on him. I think he has improved massively in the last two years...

    Further to Forty3's TDK rumour, I know someone very close to the situation. Will share with the mods if asked. TDK wanted to sign last year but his manager talked him out of it. TDK loves Carlton and has no intention of leaving. The contract will be done it is just a question of when. Also, his...

    Preview Practice Match v Collingwood Friday 24th Feb 11.00am @ Princes Park

    That looks like a death knell for Dow. With our injuries and the chance for a round 1 spot up for grabs... not even in the squad. That says he is playing out time... :( Mirkov over Pittonet strange too. I know its practice but don't you want to know how it works? Not great for Kemp/Carroll either.

    No Oppo Supporters Essendon* - 6900 & Beyond - Carlton Posters ONLY!

    I posted on this a couple of years ago. Bruce Francis is still going at it and the H/Sun sees fit to cite him as if he is a credible source. He is a peanut. I've several of his manifestos on this saga and most of his 'evidence' is his interpretation of evidence. Once he 'believes' something or...

    AFL Player 12: Will Setterfield - not injured - 21/4

    Setters should be a good pick up. I was disappointed to lose him but understand why we let him go. His career would have petered out at Carlton. Whilst we probably thought he was worth more than we got in the trade, we let him go as he would have played more twos than ones. That's not to bag...
