Rumour Bluemour Discussion thread

[Daves not here]

Pretty much my sentiments on the matter. I'm all for spending the big bucks and maybe a first round pick for a champion but there's no real point if the rest of the team can't elevate us into the top 4. We should ensure we get the best quality mids in the draft until we're ready to make the commitment on a Dangerfield/Sloane etc

We thought we had drafted mids that could take us in to the 4 when we got Judd (and maybe they still can). We seem to have a far more balanced team this time round, so hopefully someone like danger/sloane will compliment rather than carry. If not then agreed no point spending the $$$

Is it really too difficult to draft our own Dangerfields or Fyfes?

Quality drafting > Buying players

Yes. It's too difficult.

Patrick Dangerfield is a genuine superstar of the game.
While happy in Adelaide, his obvious media aspirations would be better served in the hub of Melbourne.
He is there for the picking, and only a few clubs would have the war chest to compete for his signature.
Obviously the freedom to explore media options while still playing would be attractive, so will form a part
of the contract, and may help a club get him "over the line". Living in Geelong would make it awkward
commuting to "the studio". An inner city club would be the best fit.

He is "gettable" and we would be crazy not to do due diligence. A marquee player with the ability to
raise our profile among the media "haters" would surely be worth some consideration. Not to mention
bums on seats and selling a few thousand more memberships. "Danger" is one of only a few players
who attract respect and reverence from the wider supporter base (outside of Adelaide)

Unlike the more introverted/private Juddy, could offer nearly as much off the field as on.

Assuming our new and developing KPP's come up to standard, is the obvious target as costs nothing bar
salary(cap). One suspects we will have enough cap available to make a play.

 

[HBF]

He'd be on 500k I would have thought.

I thought I read somewhere it was closer to $400k.

 

[Marc Shmurf 3]

What ballpark salary is Judd on for this season after his pay cut 2 seasons ago?

Sub $300,000

 

[I bleed Blue]

Sub $300,000

Wow.

Juddy really putting the club first. Playing on because of the direction he see's the club heading, rather than playing on for the money.

Honestly what a bloody champion. May not have won a premiership with the Blues but he will go down as one of our all time greats.

The young blokes need to learn as much off this man as they can, whilst they still have the chance.

Thanks for the info MS3

Bec would almost definitely be the main bread winner now. Juddy the trophy husband.

Genuine giggle there.

Seriously though they would substantial passive income. Anyone who doesn't reckon CJ would have built some impressive investments needs their head read.

Just another area the young'uns can learn from him.

Did he get in on the AOD project too?

By the same token.....if you could earn an additional $300k vs what you would earn if you walked away.....its still a long way from minimum wage. Thats not to say the paycut isnt appreciated.

 

[JustaBattler]

So Warnock is on more than Judd ...

 

[Magruder]

So Warnock is on more than Judd ...

That's a very interesting point.

 

[JustaBattler]

That's a very interesting point.

probably deserves to be since we are told by some on here that he is a better ruckman than Kreuzer...

Would like it if he won one more trophy before he retires....

 

[Juddalenko]

Betcha DField goes to the Geebungers.

 

[thylacine60]

Betcha backed Ajax too dincha?

 

[HereComesJuddy]

Betcha DField goes to the Geebungers.

You would think so. Think they have a few seniors that will pull the pin at the end of the year. He did have his chance a few years back and didn't act. It will be interesting but I can see a club like Collingwood going after Danger. Would like us also to but feel it's nitvtgs right time to bring in another FA on decent coin

Betchya wish your girlfriend was hot like me.

Edit: I love the internet!

Betcha DField goes to the Geebungers.

He'll cost them plenty if he goes there.
As much as I'd love Dangerfield, dollar wise he'll cost us way too much.
I'd have a much closer look at Sloane.

And for an even cheaper option a onballer from the Giants with the initials AT or DS....
