Rumour Bluemour Discussion XXXVIII

[Aphrodite]

#BUMP from February


Re: 'Alleged' rumours resurfacing ...

Folks, this is the way things are here.

Posters are responsible for what they post. Moderators can not attest to the accuracy or otherwise of any rumour posted.

Moderators will intervene for a couple of reasons.

1. If a thread is threatening to be derailed because of a post.

2. If invested parties request the removal of material.

None of this draws a conclusion as to the accuracy or otherwise of the original post.

There is no need to further speculate. What will be will be.

Also, you need to remember that this thread like all parts of this forum is bound by the rules of poster conduct. If you want to express skepticism towards a rumour that's fine, but having a crack at posters who are contributors to this forum is simply not on and will be acted upon.

Simply put, don't be a dick.

Thanks all!

I must be one of the few who don't care is JSOS goes. If he's met with WB as well, sounds like he's gone.

Best compensation required in this case. A nice right hook on the way out!

Hope HOF is ok..!

 

[Zlatan]

The HOF injury as bad as it was somehow made worse now with this JSOS news. Means we now might have to seek out a key defender in the off-season which was not really an area of need before this. Just disgusting luck again

HOF was basically the only silver lining to a failed season and now we won’t see him in 2026. Felt exactly the same when Jagga got injured in that he was a bright new hope.

Weitering is our only key defender heading into 2026 as I can’t trust Lewis Young, and how much longer can Haynes go on.

 

[chickendippas]

At what point do we sage the place?

 

[passmark]

Do they need Jack to compensate for Houston’s diabolical form?

I say that but I didn’t realise Houston had been bad. What’s his issue?

Or we just keep McGovern

All in good thyme.

 

[Blue and Silver]

Ok. I know he's dead, but should we do some sort of exorcism on Jack Elliott.

Feels like ever since the salary cap BS we've been cursed

 

[Sam The Doc]

Or we just keep McGovern

Nooo

He might be gone but his culture lives on.

It’s a form of corporate golden staph.

There is nothing confirmed with HOF until he has a scan so l think some are jumping the gun here, let's wait for some days before anything is confirmed.

McGovern is part of our problems. Seriously conditional footballer that has reamed us on $$’s without effort or performance.

 

[jooce8891]

surely we can just have a bit of sam darcy luck, please footy gods.

 

[plentyblckie]

One if motlops biggest issues is that he keeps running himself into trouble

12 months of bulking up Thilthorpe style is the only viable 2nd option to this. Please footy gods!

 

[The Bighouse]

Was about to forgive & forget after some 1st half cameos and then he goes and returns to normal.
He’s a massive liability most of the time unfortunately - a bad/wasted draft choice.

 

[AndyWalkersGirl]

Motlop our latest whipping boy. Plenty worse than him.

 

[Ald Gardiner]

One if motlops biggest issues is that he keeps running himself into trouble

He lacks a yard of pace, it’s cruelled him as an AFL footballer

 

[Rustica]

Someone on insta saged it after 0-4 start

Lasted 3 weeks

 

[AndyLucimitis]

Yep - hit the gym HOF.

Mini-rebuild next year and we welcome him back to a bigger and better Blues in 2027 !

Folks, hate to be the bearer of bad news, but I’ve got another unfortunate #Bluemour to share.

This comes from the same source who correctly flagged a few weeks back that Charlie was open to a move — and that info turned out to be spot on (regardless of his post match comments about wanting to stay - Ala Houston etc).

I can now confirm two things:

• SOS is definitely gone, and
• Cripps also wants out. He’s looking to finish his career in WA and doesn’t seem fussed about which club takes him — though West Coast looks like the obvious frontrunner.

Personally think he’s earned the right to go with our blessing at this point.

Given the source’s track record and recent form, I’m confident this Cripps part is legit. Expect it to go public in the coming weeks.

 

[yibbida]

Expect it to go public in the coming weeks.

You literally just made it "public".

 

[TwiggleyFanClub]

At what point do we sage the place?

Not sure that will do it.
We need some Pope-level sht.

 

[bradfisher14]

I'm gonna have to take up smoking again if this shit keeps up

Did HOF do an ACL?

 

[bluebaggerjuls]

We think acl for HOF?

voss said suspected acl
