Rumour Bluemour Discussion XLI

[circusdevil]

nope - I expect we will win more games

When I walk across a river with an average depth of 4feet, I know I wont drown if that is the depth across the entirety of the distance i walk. Im screwed if it goes from 2 feet to 8 feet to 1 foot to 10 feet across my journey

I'd suggest your ceiling is too low

Mitch Cleary saying we haven’t actually spoken much to Swans it’s all been through D’Orazio.

No doubt. It’s been his Manager that has been pushing this all along

 

[BlueTongue]

Jordan Lewis is a tough watch

He's my No.1 trigger. Loves himself with his definitive drivel. Thinks his new glasses make him more astute.
Flog of the monumentally highest order... puff, pant, sweat, puff (veins on neck receding)

 

[Mezzoculo]

Can't have an offer rejected if you don't make one...

 

[TwiggleyFanClub]

We should treat Charlie just like Petracca . Hold him for a year , whinge , then ask to leave again - Petraccas value has only slightly changed .

Hardly like Charlie played awesome this year anyway… can go back to sitting out back looking for cheapies in the goal square and we try again next year.

Lower our eyes and not bomb it to him. Play him as a mobile CHF like we always should have. Honour his leads but nothing on his head.

I think D'Oratzio is the middle man here pulling all the strings. Even if we have received no formal offer he'd be going back and forth between the clubs, working towards something thats acceptable.

It's what all managers do.
They are the ones always in control and manufacturing deals here there mightn't have otherwise been any.

 

[Blue_Fusion]

Mitch Cleary saying we haven’t actually spoken much to Swans it’s all been through D’Orazio.

Great. We are playing this out perfectly then. We won't even pick up the phone unless we love the offer.

Sounds like Sydney packaged that up and told D'rat to ask for our Silvagni compo in return to try their luck.

 

[bluerooster]

He has better disposal efficiency than Florent....

Stop looking at stats, it was stated today by a commentators on Fox that Buddy Franklin most preferred player to lead to was Ollie Florent. I'll take that over any stat, which could include kicks under pressure etc.

 

[carlton_99]

Healey can go **** himself. Carlton hating scumbag.

They are trying to gaslight us into thinking 22 is some throwaway pick. Bizarre analysis.

 

[BlueTongue]

Can't have an offer (publicly) rejected if you don't (publicly) make one...

[Earls Smother]

So what’s the actual beef with the club?

He thinks our emblem should be CC not CFC.

Not 'Charlie ****ing Curnow' then?

Same manager for Hayward & Florent yeah ??

 

[Gabagool]

Have we officially got to the fake drama stage of trade week where all trades are now held until an hour ahead of the deadline tomorrow?

But there's going to be a 'flurry of trades' tomorrow

 

[Blue__Balls]

Out of interest, are those ratings including academy picks?

So Uwland, Patterson, Annable, Dean all pushing them back to those positions?

Draft imo would look something like:

1 - Duursma (WC)
2 - Uwland (GC)
3 - CDT (WC)
4 - Patterson (GC)
5 - Annable (Lions)
6 - X.Taylor (Rich)
7 - Grjl (Rich)
8 - Sharp (Ess)
9 - Robey (Ess)
10 - Dean (Carl) ?
11 - Lindsay (Melb)
12 - Schubert (Melb)
13 - Farrow (Ess/Haw)
14 -

I have Melbourne getting pick 7 + 8 for Trac, but in reality, their first choice comes at #10... our 11 goes back to 14... so yes, Grjl is a very outside chance, but given his combine results, I think we'd be really lucky for him to land there.

Robey has gathered too much momentum, he isn't sliding that far.

Can't see Lindsay as one of the best kicks in the draft lasting outside the first 10 picks either.

Correct, rankings including the Academy picks. We'll get a better idea from Twomey in the leadup to the draft of course, but those rankings indicate that a lot of the "experts" are judging one of Lindsay/Grlj lasting to Pick 14 (where we'd be picking), or the pick just before it. One club reaching for a player type, or liking the intangibles of a player currently assessed as 15+, and those chances improve again.

I like both those guys for us too, but I'd probably be equally satisfied if we came away with a Dovaston, Farrow, Schubert or Cumming instead.

Gerald Healy came up with an interesting point on fox footy.He said it’s becoming a ground ball game referring to small/medium forwards kicking more goals uses the grand final as an example.

Found that insightful.

?
Rookie spot if we have any available

 

[Benaly28]

Can we all just remember no matter what happens at 7:30 tomorrow night at the end of the day that the emblem is what we all care about and what makes us better.

 

[Kruezing]

Tarryn Thomas?

Oh boy

 

[Just Kreuzing]

Tarryn Thomas?

No chance

No way in HELL

 

[Navara79]

Tarryn Thomas?

Deserves a ban for this

 

[T2B_]

Tarryn Thomas?

If we've been willing to try push Elijah out for culture reasons, aint no chance in hell we're going for Tarryn. Not to mention it would make a mockery of Carlton Respects.

 

[Tazblue]

Where is pick 38 coming from? Our next pick is 54 (ish)

We need an extra pick not give picks to swans
