Still kills me that we could have had him with the DVR pick.

Could also have had Daniel Howe or Conner Blakely.

Aaaaargh!!!!!

Tell me about it.
The one that hurts the most is trading pick 7. Had we kept that we could have drafted Peter Wright.

Those rumours have been bouncing around here for a while. It's still at least third hand info. None of us have seen it.

Yeah but the Dark Lord sees all. We as mere mortals are reduced to just guessing

Jaksch's comments (article above) had me worried from the day he arrived. He just struck me as a guy who knew his spot was secure as we had no talls, and couldn't wait to get back to Melbourne and get stuck into life outside of football.

Not saying rumours about him liking a drink are correct, but I think it was obvious from the outset that coming to Carlton was very much about his own lifestyle and job security. Which is fair enough in most professions. However the AFL competition has a habit of weeding out those that don't have that burning desire for footy.

I guess that rules him out of a cabinet position?

That point was directed more at the comment from Unknown Origin a few posts up - probably would have been better served to have been in it's own entry.

I'm simply advocating for being less combative when it comes to someone sharing rumours - they may not be right, they may be right at the time, they may accurate but never substantiated - either way, focusing on the credibility of posters just discourages people from sharing. Anyone who is in a position to definitively know what is happening behind the scenes in clubland is probably not in a position to share it in an online forum, so we're only ever going to get second or third hand info at best.

In the interests of not launching a poster credibility inquisition which can only end in tears, I'll happily let this one go now. Everybody love everybody.

Blue balls, go release some pent up energy. Your bigfooty name is getting the better of you.

Sounds like a code word for Josh Kelly to me.

Nah, he said 'elite'. Your standards are too low.

 

[LordLucifer]

Pretty sure someone reported this rumour a while back.

Yeah, I did !!

 

[LanceRomance]

We probably would have drafted Boekhorst at pick 7

 

[Mr_Plow]

We probably would have drafted Boekhorst at pick 7

Rogers would have been shocked that he lasted until pick 7, was in his top 3.

 

[I bleed Blue]

Rumour as fact.

Barass has the best info of any poster I have seen in my 6 years on bigfooty

Barass strikes again

 

[Jabba73]

Barass strikes again

Is that why we rarely hear from him?

Do we need to join him on the Pickett line?

 

[HBF]

We probably would have drafted Boekhorst at pick 7

Yeah good call Lance.

Didn't Adam43 or someone come up with the goods on this a little prior to B70 who confirmed re: personal reasons?

Great to get the good oil in from our BF posters.

Adam43's exact words- 'Carlton have made contact with Rodney Eade'.
