Bluemour Melting Pot XXXII - Reaching fever pitch! 🔥 🔥 🔥

[tarczonandjane]

If he could, I think a few of ours would be concerned as he would give them a fair rocket…

Probably the most feared mid of his time, hard, fearless, cannon off the right, great hands, vision and could take you out fairly when you least expected it!

Very definitely one of my all time favourite opposition players. He was an absolute gun.

 

[La Dispute]

Really struggling to shed any tears over SPS tbh.

Gave us a couple of good games, no doubt we contributed to his poor development, but a classic case of style over substance. He was a bit of a nothing player 95% of the time.

Wish him well, can’t see him reaching any great heights at West Coast though.

 

[Rosscoe]

Hate what we done to SPS. All the best Samo.

 

[BIuebagger]

We will get max a second round pick, just to see him blossom at WC.

Personally don’t think he will unless the go home factor is that important in his lifestyle. Think he will be a solid player but nothing spectacular by the end of his career, just going from what I’ve seen week to week. Penny might drop for him and I could be wrong, which if so good luck to him!

 

[zeggie]

I get a feeling or vibe that 1 or 2 more will request to go as well. No idea who. This off season is going to be such a sliding doors moment for us.

We haven't lost a single player we haven't wanted to keep for ~5 years. Time to cull a few I say. Bring in the cream.

 

[Poorman53]

Not sure we'd be interested in Brander anyways. Hopefully a non-issue.

 

[teknodeejay]

With Hewett and possibly Cerra being traded in, he must think his chances of making the 22 next year are slim?

hasn’t really gotten the most out of himself so far IMO… trading him out is a good idea for us (and hopefully him)

 

[Michael Jezz]

Teague destroyed SPS as a footballer. Square pegs in round holes

 

[Blues_1864]

Brander is effectively a free agent because they wouldn't offer him a contract. SPS is worth more than him based off of that alone.

Brander is not delisted yet, nor will he be before the end of the trade period. Unless he delists himself?

He too is a former first-round pick. A straight-ish swap is probably not silly. Assuming he wants to come.

 

[SirSanchez]

Would you rather lose a SPS who has shown some glimpses? or lose a Cerra who has shown heaps?

Just trying to put things into perspective. SPS isn't an enormous loss.

would've been better for us if he requested Freo instead of Eagles! thats what im upset about! ha!

 

[Gointocarlton]

He probably fears the brutal preseason our blokes are about to enter. No room for the faint hearted.

He too is a former first-round pick. A straight-ish swap is probably not silly. Assuming he wants to come.

And assuming we'd want him. We have enough of our own fringe players.

 

[Blue train 28]

Carlton get 29,36 and Brander
West coast get SPS and 61
Can’t expect to much..

 

[bluemahogany]

No more dinky 8m kicks

No more me reminiscing about about his 3rd game against Collingwood

 

[Gethelred]

I think it's a bit unfair to blame SPS leaving and lack of kicking on as a player on Teague.

Who are you looking at instead???

 

[Recon_29]

Really sad about SPS. Oozes class. Played out of position and ruined under Teague. Really wanted to see him get a go under another coach.

 

[Gointocarlton]

Teague destroyed SPS as a footballer. Square pegs in round holes

Teague is gone, why has he requested a trade?

 

[Jimmyonesix]

Sad part about all this is we drafted so many mids probably knowing we would have excess and could use as draft capital - but due to there lack of development they will be given away for a bag of lemons ..

 

[thylacine60]

All in.

Can build on 3.....

 

[Zlatan]

Carlton get 29,36 and Brander
West coast get SPS and 61
Can’t expect to much..

Mate if you were an actual train you’d be off the rails with this. It will be pick 49 if Austin can outsmart the Eagles.

 

[thebluenewdeal]

And the player exodus begins…

 

[Bostonian]

Cheers Teague for destroying SPS. Worth sfa in a trade due to the treatment and lack of development

He was one player who was given plenty of chances to show what he could do. He never truly took them.

I'm not a Teague guy but you can't blame him for the player not grabbing the opportunity with two hands and making it work when others did.

 

[Warsaw]

Hoping against hope, but I hope this doesn't eventuate.

 

[klompy]

He's not a modern day footballer. He would have suited the game 10 years ago. Has no aggression and relies on having space and time.

 

[thylacine60]

Hate what we done to SPS. All the best Samo.

"to"? does he take any responsibility?
