Bluemour Discussion Thread III

No mate. We lost our second next year in the Tuohy deal. We traded it (and Zach) for Geelongs 1st.

Geelongs 1st was then traded for Mbank + Pickett and GWS 2nd rounder. We then traded that second rounder for 3 late picks this year.

We don't have any second round picks next year.

atleast we have 12 months to get it back

There's a few blow ins who have been decidedly quiet, but now happy to stick knives in.... You can spot the ones who probably stand in the outer abusing players for everything.

 

[SafeAsMilk]

Deal sounds OK after reading through it 45 times. Not real keen on Palmer or Smedts but I'm happy for Gibbs to stay.

I better read it another 40 times to make sure.

 

[cfc4life]

Taking all the moves into account, as well as the fact that three weeks ago we had Bryce Gibbs as probably the 2nd player picked for round 1, I'm relatively happy with our results. Marchbank slots into a premiership defence with Weitering, Plowman and Docherty. Pickett(if he gets healthy) could be an absolute gun. Smedts and Palmer decent short term depth, perhaps more if Billie can meet expectations from when he was drafted. We head into the draft with 5 which can be Taranto or Brodie.

Positive thinking guys.

 

[Dominator_7]

Rapt to get Marchbank and Pickett across...
I ll back the Club to get their injuries right, just like we did with Plowman and Sumner last year, and you ll see them become absolute guns.
Then we ll see what the some of the sooks on here will have to say.

 

[TBellicious]

So much for embracing the draft.
Like always Carlton looking for shortcuts.

Better depth prospects than Whiley, Graham, etc

If we were looking for shortcuts, we would ve sold the farm for O Mera.

 

[reubsblues]

Im more than happy with the outcome and ade can go EAD offering 13 and 3rd round pick for a contracted gun player gibbs will get over it and play good footy not the first player to not get to his prefered destination ryan O'Keefe ring any bells

 

[harrisendblue]

If we finish second last we get no second rounder?? What the hell? Do we still have cats future 1st?

we wont finish second last especially as we keep gibbs. will now be interesting to see who falls out that we can target as free agents

No doubt Hawks will look after us with a trade next year!

That's the idea, BUT, it well go for naught when we are both gunning for FYFE

We'll probably use 6 picks this year, and we got in a 19 and 20 year old (Picks 4 and 6) for trading out a future 2nd rounder.
How is that a short cut?

.because errrr

 

[dragonsblues]

Very disappointed.

Tuohy out for injured dud.

Squibbs stays. Would of much preferred a first round pick and Lyons or a second round pick.

Marchbank always injured. Pickett always injured. Palmer spud.

Missed Hrovat. Missed Stewart.

Disaster.

Close down the club. Its all over.

yep for a year or a de boer. it will be interesting to see what falls out of lists. plenty of players remain unsigned on all lists. by keeping gibbs it may force us to look at someone younger as DFA.

From the Carlton Website:
Marchbank and Pickett joined Carlton in a complex deal which saw the Blues also receive the Giants' future second-round pick. That pick was then on-traded to Hawthorn for picks 48, 66 and 70

So do we still have our 2017 2nd round pick?

No way will hawks go for Fyfe next year, they just brought in Mitchell and Omeara, their salary cap will be bursting at the seams

No, that went to Geelong in the Tuohy deal

Traded with touhy

so no 2017 2nd rd pick

 

[Styxx]

But we helped out the hawks massively, when we could have just taken the second pick from GWS and used it ourselves

Because we can remind them of that when we need something.

 

[BlueHulk]

Oh OK, Thanks for update Dochs and Razor.

 

[The Dochs in]

Xavier Richards didn't end up anywhere either I don't think, so he may well end up in the pre season draft? Not sure he will last to us but

Can you point out these 'shortcuts'?

We've gone and picked up two tremendous talents under 21 years old.
