Rumour Bluemour Discussion XLI

[C4[2]Yo`DooR]

Plot twist:

Jimmy Bartel’s a flat earther, so his idea of “west” is more of a suggestion than an actual direction.

 

[DirtyLeeds]

Maybe he's more 'left and right'? Would place Bummers, Dawgs, Norf, Catters plus everybody interstate South and West! Big net that one....

 

[DirtyLeeds]

I put it out there on the "Next Captain" thread that Butters is that man, how could he resist Kenny with CD and Boak in tow? We would have the cash.....

…but would need to jettison Cripps, Harry & Weiters to get the picks

 

[Gointocarlton]

Assistant at Freo or WCE (changed from one to other afaik). Was touted by media in recent years and went for a couple of vacancies but missed out.

So he misses out on jobs and people think that he would be a good appointment for us? Yeah nah. Lets just use that info to put a line through him please.

And why not!?! The total cleanout complete...

 

[BlueTongue]

Brendon Lade is a highly rated assistant at the dogs

He's been around a while and overlooked several times though

 

[Gointocarlton]

They asked Buckley if he would consider the Carlton job if it came up, he said he hasn't thought about it.
GW was asked today and had this to say

 

[DirtyLeeds]

Sure but former ruckmen are going okay atm

 

[BlueTongue]

I don't agree with Newy as captain, he's a great character but he does let us down with how hotheaded he can be. You don't want your captain getting into an altercation and setting a poor example for the youth. I think Weitering is a good choice, on the proviso he turns around the latter part of the season.

Toby Greene and James Sicily are the only hotheads as captains right now.

There is absolutely no-one else fit for the job IMO. Walsh, maybe, but he's not reliable to step up when needed and I feel he'd be Crippa Mark II with regard to 'do it all himself' rather than on field coaching.

 

[Skull Face]

We need a review of the entire football department top to bottom, sort out who can be moved on and who needs to be given notices of improvements to save their careers. The next coach needs to be through a process of interviews, seek the availability of your horse, ken types but don't be gifting them a job just on reputation.

 

[CJMB]

I guess the argument would be are we better off with 1 butters or multiple players across multiple positions

Good lord… at this rate we’ll be ringing up Mark Neeld next.

 

[thegreatbeast]

First you get the Ken, then you get the Butters, then you get the flags.

This country, you gotta get the Ken first. Then when you get the Ken, you get the Butters. Then when you get the Butters, you get the flags!

 

[mochacinolatte]

LOL as if Butters wants to walk into this basket case.

 

[jj1978]

Spanner in the works. Voss extension coming soon…

 

[passmark]

Damian Drum is the front runner

Could do worse than bringing back Mr "Show them how ****ing cool you are"...

 

[SolGoodman]

With our hypothetical thinking hats on.

IF Butters is extremely close to Boak and Hinkley, and they give him the captaincy and build the whole new "Carlton" around him and sell him some next level pipe dream all whilst earning a fantastic amount of money doing it.

It's plausible, very unlikely but not impossible.

 

[circusdevil]

Damian Drum is the front runner

Gerard Neesham busy?

 

[teddy-hopkins]

Exactly we see the fade outs haven't been irradicated in how many years and have plagued every recruit since, and now we have people wanting us to or hoping GW's "chess move" is to purposefully not win to secure picks... if that's the case GW can pack his bags with Voss.

Any club who actively tries losing games from round 8 of a season needs to hand their license back to the AFL and shut the doors. It's a debate so dumb I don't know why I even engaged in it to be honest.

 

[teddy-hopkins]

Josh Fraser has coached the Collingwood VFL side for a couple of seasons and been part of Collingwood’s senior program - more than qualified to coach us in the interim.

Josh Fraser is a dud. He's part of the problem.

 

[MacReady]

Josh Fraser is a dud. He's part of the problem.

Could not possibly be any worse than the guy currently steering the sinking ship...

 

[agro]

25 years of crapness caused by 6 months of being an assistant coach - yes let’s go with that.

You have to be good enough to engineer tanking - I’m pretty sure we’re garbage enough without having to pretend to be garbage.
