Saad deal should be done early.

#Bluemour

 

[skadoosh]

Welcome back F2G

Oliver is a smoke screen for a player previously linked to us.

If its who i've been told - not the biggest fan of the decision. Either way, the player is pretty much confirmed to be leaving their team. Happy to share with a mod.

Thats the biggest change since SOS left. Club does not leak anywhere near as much as they used to.

Finally, this news isnt coming from us - its from the players team. I'm out!

On Oliver:

He told us he wanted to come 2 weeks ago. I dont think we can afford him in wages/picks. Much more likely in 2022.

#Bluemour

Saad trade good as done, in the interests of all clubs involved to get it done early as lossible. GWS have also confirmed they won't be matching Williams.☺

#Bluemour

 

[Aphrodite]

Good chance our pick 7 will end up at Geelong.

#Bluemour

 

[skadoosh]

Oliver has absolutely requested to come to Carlton. News will only filter out if a deal can be done. Until then all parties will keep quiet about it.

#Bluemour

 

[skadoosh]

Am still around HBF - enjoy reading these threads

It is correct that C Oliver would like a new home at the Blues however a deal would be very difficult.

His Manager has both clubs but Melb will not likely let him go and will back themselves in to resettle him.

His Manager will not announce this to the public whilst a deal is unlikely to be achievable.

Lots of moving parts but club exploring all options.

#Bluemour

We are not one of the clubs looking at Higgins as it stands.
Trade value late first, early second.

#Bluemour

 

[Aphrodite]

Higgins is not in any of our discussions.

#Bluemour

 

[skadoosh]

A few for you all:


Treloar will not come into our plans.


Oliver 75% chance, but as I’ve said previously (maybe unnoticed) it’s going to be very difficult.


If not for Oliver, there is another on our radar which requires more work and planning (both $ and trade value).


Cain was livid the day of SOS’s outburst, but he quickly contained the issue and In case anyone is questioning his ability... Brendon Gale esk!

#Bluemour

 

[Aphrodite]

Cripps is going nowhere.

#Bluemour

 

[skadoosh]

Crippa has agreed to terms, just waiting on who we acquire this year to the proportion payment schedule.

lol Yes, but no, we are into a Saint, met today. If I can't say more it's because I can't say more.

#Bluemour

 

[Aphrodite]

Cripps didn't appreciate SOS comments and speculation regarding his future, eager to put pen to paper as he doesn't want it to become a distraction but understands holding off will give us greater flexibility.

#Bluemour

 

[skadoosh]

One missed from yesterday evening. Post liked by MS3.

Just heard that we (Essendon and Us)“are a fair way apart in Saad’s value”

#Bluemour

 

[Aphrodite]

There has been a lot of work done by Carlton, Saad and his management team to talk sense into the Saad deal. They’ve talked it down from 8 + (one of our under 22 year old first rounders) to working around us getting some change from Pick 8.

It’s at a tricky impasse at the moment. Daniher getting band 1 compo means any offer we make to split our pick 8 with Geelong or Brisbane can now be trumped by Essendon.

The club is acutely aware of how negotiations went with Papley and Martin last year, and there is growing sentiment that when you convince a player to come, you need to make sure it happens smoothly, otherwise there are fears players and managers won’t want to work with us in the future.

As it stands the deal will have pick 8 going to the bombers with change yet to be agreed upon.

#Bluemour

 

[Aphrodite]

In talks with pies, not Treloar related.

#Bluemour

 

[Blues90]

Heard from a good source the Collingwood player we are enquiring about is Jadyn Stephenson



#Bluemour

 

[skadoosh]

We aren't interested in crouch at all. His team approached us a few times before the saints nomination.

We have spoken to his manager about coming over.
Big chance im told.

Usual disclaimer: I can't name the poster or the forum.

#Bluemour

 

[Broadside]

There is no truth to any of the talk about us going after these fringe players (Dunstan, Anderson, mccartin to name a few). McC would be a vfl play.

Don't stress about Saad, we are in a good position.

#Bluemour

 

[skadoosh]

Damo talking out of his ass
Saad is 100% committed to Carlton, infact his already using the facilities at Princes Park

Bombers offering pick 7 for Dunkley.

Dogs only want to deal with future picks given JUH. Dodo struggling to comprehend this.

North Melbourne seem to have a desire to force Jed Anderson

out.
They haven’t said this, but their contract offer suggests they value him as a 7th round pick.

Don't expect running commentary from us in the media. It's not going to happen. A directive from Liddle.

from the saints after he was delisted. Not saying we will get him

#Bluemour

 

[Juddalenko]

Fogarty wants to get to the blues, should happen if Geelong are willing

#Bluemour

 

[Blue and Blue]

We’re holding firm on our offer for Saad,Essendon need our pick to manufacture other deals.Fogarty is the only other player we are chasing at this stage.
