Bluemour Melting Pot XIX - Give Me Ed Baby - Return of the Prodigal Son

[Aphrodite]

Twitter is worse if I had to rate them. Far worse than Flog book.

They get most of their rumours from here.

 

[Aphrodite]

Fact, but also everyone screaming for rumours or should I say bluemors on a slow day so thought I'd give them one.

All good BR.

Reportedly $600K a year for 5yrs

Sucked in GC!

The funny thing is, Essendon were also chasing Ellis hard, so it's just another reason to laugh at * as well

According to Herald Sun just now
Betts has officially requested a trade to us

 

[Robbo's my hero]

Probably a good fit for club and player imo

Fair swap Lynch for Ellis.

Maybe but for all the s**t they’ve been through they still did pretty good in recent trades.

Carlton cult hero Eddie Betts has officially told the Blues he wants back in.
Now comes the complicated task of working out how the man beloved to Blues fans fits into their list management picture.

Getting a trade done is more problematic given the Blues’ interest in three other small forwards.

YOOHOO MEB_

Have you told SOS you don't rate him? What was his response?

Thanks for your input and opinion. I’ll keep it in mind next time it matters.

 

[Kruezing]

So with Eddie back Charlie and H to the flanks ? ...

 

[Blue Rising]

So twitter was right, and before the HS

Money ball and list management have nothing to do with each other.

Well what ever you want to call it

I don’t think a wingman or half back flanker is what we need, Martin pushes a good young player out of the team eg Williamson or O’Brien plus we have to pay him over 500k and give up a decent pick.

The Betts trade should be very simple if Carlton wants him. Crows got him for nothing and should arrange to send wherever he wants to go for nothing. He’s given the Crows great service and deserves it.

With Eddie Betts coming in, I'm fairly certain that Casboult will be part of the Gold Coast trade in order to avoid paying him his extra year whilst also allowing him to get more security and facilitate the trade with Jack Martin. I honestly believe that our second round draft pick next year is worth more than a late first this year, so it's a pretty good deal for the Suns IMO.

 

[Prem17]

I’m sure Eddie and Harry/Charlie can work out a few Jack Reiwoldt/Dusty Martin type moves.

That's all well and good but first we'd have to teach Harry and Charlie how to drop them in the first place! LOL

The Suns are really going to be loading up, with Ellis and Casboult.

Doubt it...cas too important atm. We won’t trade him and he won’t want to leave

Ive seen a few people go with this statement and it makes me wonder. SOS stated he rated Stocker top 6, supposedly Caldwell 5th and picked Walsh at 1, which means there are only 3 places to fill with either Luko, Rankine, M.King, B.KIng, Rozee, Smith, Thomas, Jones, Blakey.

Its just doesn't add up to me, unless SOS is drafting on need and then it makes perfect sense, not sure how he could have Caldwell and Stocker at 5 and 6 and Walsh at 1 with all of those other names missing out.

I think he had him 6th on his preference list of projected available players. Just guessing?

Eddie is coming home

As bad as each other.

 

[Kernafides]

Bet your mates didn’t complain in 2017 when he kicked 30 goals for em, including one in their GF win.

I'm sure they didn't but that was 2 years ago

I’m hearing that Longmuir has the Freo job. Source is a punter I trust. $2.25 currently. Makes sense from their end, Josh Carr seemed a stretch and Longmuir is highly regarded.

And Rowell, Anderson and Greenwood. Will be sad to see Levi go, but he'll be a great pickup for them if it happens.

 

[Opine]

True. But he’s only recently turned 23, and that side has a plethora of quality smalls. I’ve a feeling he’ll be good for us.

 

[Jucman]

Eddy wouldn’t say he want to come back unless we have agreed. He would look stupid otherwise so I suggest it’s a done deal .
