Rumour Bluemour Discussion XXXVI - 'Loopy' Season in full swing

[CrippaTheGoat9]

I reckon the Club and Houston know exactly how it's going to play out, even if the exact picks aren't certain yet.... patience is a virtue as they say.

And there's zero chance DH will be at the Pies next year.

That’s a very strong and bold statement ….

I think he will be at the pies

 

[Stiffler's Dad]

The key to our improvement will come from within, not from from one player - better fitness, strength, conditioning and game-day coaching.

And there lays the problem right there!

 

[Accidental genius]

I think that’s the key take away - we are showing respectful indifference.
It’s not about him, we have a plan & are sticking to it.

It’s showing great growth & strength by the club that we aren’t grandstanding.

Massive change by the club, if u want to be destination club u do what works for u, not bleat or harp on about others being “being difficult or unfair” u just do u & do it well.

From the sellers side it’s been played out similarly but as a buyer we aren’t falling for it or responding like we were with Shiel….what a bullet we dodged there

 

[RPCB]

Things will move once JSOS comes out and nominates for him…..

SOS to Jack: “You do that and I’ll disown you and my grandson.”

Potentially not a bad thing...........

I'd be looking at Brisbane MSD selection Craven

There's a recruitment that would require courage

[SkyhorseTamer]

What is?

The report that Houston chose the pies. Leppitsch being a win now list manager with an army of vets who were part of the korean war. Let them play hardball with port, we can pick up advantageous positions around the club's going overboard in this period for once. Instead of being in the thick of the overpaying nonsense.

Two of those things are not like the other!
Time to pony up you bunch of toothless bastards

I'd go as far as saying three of those things are not like each other...

Sos will sit in the car whilst Jo visits her grandson…

 

[charred_fate]

I am “slightly confused” by the number of people selling our list short and thinking we need to reach for an expensive short term fix which will further compromise our salary cap for the next five years while passing up opportunity to future proof the list to contend for a decade or likely more.


We were “second seed” for much of the season before injury and fatigue “ended” our season. We have 3-5 youngsters (arguably more) developing rapidly to make us a significantly better team from within, without additions.

We also weren’t that impressive.. what we were producing as ‘second seed’ until the mid-point of the season was a long way from what the good teams were producing in the finals.

 

[jimsta10]

As for Dan, lets cool the jets a bit and see what eventuates. Let the big boys to their shit..

 

[TrueQldBlue]

Twomey seems to be taking joy in hating on us this year. Over the past few months he has been really condescending and laughs at us at every opportunity on gettable. There's a clear attitude shift, I reckon someone's pissed him off at the club.

Don't forget he is an Essendon supporter so he will always have some joy in any demise of our great club.

I mean, drafted from Wangaratta at 23 two years ago using Pick 48. 9 games, av 11 disposals, under 3 tackles and 0.67 goals per game playing forward.

His value is extremely low, put it that way. He has pace apparently so it's down to an attribute.

I saw him live a couple of times, he’s better than the numbers suggest IMO but value would be limited.

Collingwoods plans

Collingwoods reality

At least they got some teeth

 

[T2B_]

How the **** did Leppitsch become a list manager. Never struck me as exactly a real sharp operator.

 

[Sam The Doc]

Levi wants to keep playing. CHB sorted!!!!!!!

 

[Juddrockz]

That’s a very strong and bold statement ….

I think he will be at the pies

Or at least Leppa does.

 

[4flagsin5yrs]

Why is that?

Why is that?

it just doesn't make sense from Houston's pov, in my opinion.

 

[jimsta10]

How the **** did Leppitsch become a list manager. Never struck me as exactly a real sharp operator.

lets not forget he was also the coach of the Lions at one stage

probably found his niche

 

[HereComesJuddy]

Conor Stone staying with the Giants for 2 more years. Take that *

I'd stay anywhere over going to * as well

 

[blue healer]

Why is that?

It's the vibe.

SOS did, after he failed as a commentator and assistant coach
