YES

We have officially knocked back the offer from Sydney.

I think everyone is going to be VERY happy after tonight

It will be unexpected that's for sure

If I'm wrong ... I will delete this 20 year old account.

On my Carlton private group chat my source (same bloke who told me about E Hollands) has said Humphrey deal agreed. He wont divulge anything else though. He hardly tells me anything and I'm more than prepared to come and put my hand up on here if I am wrong.

Apparent pick swap from Hawks from 10 to 9 ...

Pick 9 is going elsewhere.

#Bluemour

 

[Aphrodite]

In response to - 'Does this mean Hayward is out'?

Hayward is coming.

#Bluemour

 

[yazz]

Swans have finalised terms with Charlie (new deal) and blues re Hayward (also new deal). Trade will happen.
Blues will be active in last 60 minutes trying to get ahead of Dean bid - have re affirmed interest in an A grade talent this afternoon….
Baku Khamis done

Some second hand info coming out of trade period:

• Boak a good chance to join as a development coach.
• Crippa happy to hand over the captaincy if senior personnel think it’s time. Will do what’s in the best interests of the club.
• Jagga‘s professionalism really standing out within the four walls already.
• Gov was gone if Buku joined. Now club is weighing up keeping him or bringing in a replacement via DFA or during the SSP period.
• Elijah has broken the club’s trust and it’s seen as very unlikely that there’s a road back for him.

Bit of “after” draft information. Nothing really earth shattering

Sydney were looking to trade mostly players to us for Charlie but couldn’t get many to commit. Rowbottom Campbell McInerney names that said no to a trade early

Charlie had been saying he was gone nearly all year. Gave up on season early. Geelong was preference over Sydney and GCS. As TDK & Jack gone we were happy to let him go for right price.

Humphrey had feelers out to come home and we were serious option. We asked but we’re quickly told not being traded and don’t bother offering anything. Feel he will ask again next year

No interest in Elijah at all. Damaged reputation

Chased Ned Reeves
Didn’t think Khamis would be an issue but Dogs kept changing needs
Absolutely wrapt with Chesser
We were in discussions with Florent even prior to Charlie option

Everything on table for draft. Insiders very excited by Dean & Ison. Will likely pick one more. Some believe Ison easily Top 10

Still looking at DFAs before finalising list

As someone said all of a sudden club has different look and feel and people are excited. Expectations are high and many players training already at club

List should be all good for pre season. Kemp coming along slowly. Cripps etc will be given good break and limited up until New Year

No one sees this as a rebuild.

#Bluemour

 

[skadoosh]

Confirmed today that there is zero percent chance that Elijah Hollands stays.

#Bluemour

 

[Marc Shmurf 3]

There is a small chance Elijah is delisted and then placed on the rookie list.

#Bluemour

 

[skadoosh]

Hearing Lij is living with Walshy and has completely done a 180. He has been an absolute pro for the last 4 months.

Draft schedule - Swans v Blues opening round Thursday night in Sydney
#Bluemour

 

[Graffy4242]

Elijah’s been given a set of targets to hit over the summer, told that if he meets them, he’ll secure the final spot on the list.

#Bluemour

 

[Aphrodite]

Not saying this isn't true but I was speaking to a source close to Will White and they said he isn't too worried about Elijah taking a SSP spot from him (despite the obvious talent difference). Said there were 4 players offered train on spots for currently 1 position but assumed O'Farrell would be put on the long term injury list which would open up a second spot.

Also said while Will is happy to stay at Carlton he would nominate for the rookie draft in the hopes of a more secure future.

#Bluemour

 

[skadoosh]

Confirmed WCE will be bidding on Dean at 3.

#Bluemour

 

[Aphrodite]

Elijah coming from a long way back so far compared to the others.

#Bluemour

 

[Aphrodite]

Cody Walker at the club today also - training with the seniors. Andrew and Arli in attendance.

According to Andrew, Cody 100% will be at Carlton next year.

#Bluemour

 

[skadoosh]

Elijah as it stands is still not expected to be on the list come next season.

So clearly if some are being told otherwise the playing group and club must be spilt.

Re: Lij …

For what it's worth this discussion came up this morning with the contacts I have within the club and the answer was 'still to be determined'. Which makes sense, a final decision does not have to be made for a while yet.

#Bluemour

 

[Aphrodite]

The club is extremely pleased with Elijah’s return and current performance, along with Hayward and Florent.

Player measurables have improved across the board in McInness’ second year. There remains some concern, however, that the new recruits have arrived at the club in stronger physical and aerobic condition than our existing players, which has been partly attributed to legacy issues from the previous high-performance program under Andrew Russell.
