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

Is that Jesse Carter guy from Fb Blue believers?

Correct

 

[teknodeejay]

I have no idea how reliable this twitter account it, so take this as a grain of salt. Says he is employed at Icon Park, so who knows.

Icon Park hmm? Would explain any credibility to their "knowledge". http://www.iconpark.com/

Nakia Cockatoo?

Would be a better option than Motlop.

 

[SolGoodman]

I like this line of thinking from Jake Niall

"It is unclear whether Pickett could be tied into a deal for Marchbank. Carlton would likely offer the Giants the draft pick it gains from Adelaide for Bryce Gibbs — expected to be pick 13, though the Blues want more than that pick for their star midfielder who is seeking a trade back to South Australia."

Playing hardball....

Well I certainly hope so, now that Touhy has requested a trade to Geelong also, if we don't play hardball on Gibbs (#13 & Lyons is WAY under IMHO), we will also get reamed by Geelong given the divide between Touhy & Gibbs' talent.

So what can we expect in the way of compensation? 3rd party may have to be involved.

They'll dangle Vardy in our faces.

They can send him in the same ambulance being used for the GWS guys.

Mckay will be on 7 news at 6:45 with Mark Stevens to talk about Gibbs

Not another Twitter 'fan account'!

Can't see Geelong parting with Cockatoo. They're trying to add pace not lose it. Motlop is different because he is older, inconsistent and lazy while Cockatoo is young and full of potential. If Cockatoo is offered sign asap.

Cockatoo is fool's gold imo. Leave it up to Geelong to find a pick around the 20-mark for Tuohy, take that to the draft and move on.

Really stoked with how this is unfolding #InSOSWeTrust

If the deal turns into pick 13 for Marchbank, Pickett and Stewart then I'd be worried.

 

[Blugazi]

Not sure we'd be into Motlop given Bolton's tactic during our game vs. Geelong earlier in the year.

Agree, he obviously seen some area's in his game that can really be exploited.

 

[Funk]

Can barass70 or Marc Shmurf 3 or anyone else in the 'know'.. not you Earls.... please bring back some positive news for us......

Please......

Some would argue this is all positive news.

We are "resetting" in a major, major way.

To me it all depends on what our end goal is.

If it is to competitive in the next few years? It is bad news.

If it is to set up a list capable of top 2 in 2021/2022?? As long as SOS can produce some magic at the trade table it is great news.

I'm telling you, these Lisfranc injuries need to be treated with caution. I hope that Pickett gets an absolute thorough medical because there is a chance his career is short lived as a result of these horrid injuries. I would not wish that on him at all (want him to be a full firing gun as per his draft potential)

 

[Zlatan]

I can stomach a lot, but not ******* Motlop. I do not want this guy anywhere near this club.

What we should be doing is using our future 2nd rounder on Marchbank alone and taking Pick #5 and Pick #13 to the draft where we can get a couple of young gun midfielders and cover the loss of Gibbs. Arguably, our situation looks brighter by replacing a 28 year old Gibbs with 2 18 year old draft picks that will undoubtedly get game time this season.

These guys like Stewart, Pickett etc.. barely worth 3rd rounders in their current state. If we want them so bad, we've got current and future 3rd rounders we can throw at them.

 

[BuxbaumBixby]

If the deal turns into pick 13 for Marchbank, Pickett and Stewart then I'd be worried.

Why be worried? ... 13 for 2 former first round draft picks, and a decent prospect in Stewart (being kept out of a side because of Patton, Cameron and Lobb doesn't make him a dud) ... seems like pretty good value especially if it includes Corr.

 

[teknodeejay]

If Pick 5 was worth 5 players, Pick 13 must be worth 4.

Or a third rounder back.

 

[BlueTongue]

The benefit of losing Gibbs for that pick is that it now looks unlikely we lose pick 5 for the GWS players, so it's not so bad IMO.

You ARE kidding! Gibbs is worth more than Pick 13 and Lyons by Himself, let alone handing over our 2nd rounder!

You are OK with this? That's like a signal for all clubs to come pull our pants down!
What do you suggest we get from Geelong for Touhy then? Simply give him away and ask Geelong for some 'positive vibes'?
