Bluemour Discussion Thread XVIII - Please Sir, Can We Have More?

[RoyalParade]

betts martin and a crouch is all we need

would they accept pick 8 for crouch?

Martin will take less to play with Eddie!!

 

[Elmer_Hauser]

Suppose Eddie coming home might get some 5 - 10 K members who never re-joined after Ratts got sacked and Eddie left back into the gold.

Been a massive night for the footy club.

 

[thylacine60]

Why has the club not finished any trades as of today? August 29th. A Thursday, some 6 weeks before any are even possible?

Frankly I am shocked at the inactivity of the club in this pre-mature phase to secure a free agent.

We haven't even drafted anyone!

Honestly, what a shamozzle.

typical old carlton…...

 

[Mr_Plow]

I support this potential move, particularly if we don't lose any significant assets in acquiring him.

Think he'll have a significant off-field impact as well as playing a role for a year, as it seems Papley isn't coming.

Might also influence Martin's decision, what better mentor to learn from.

 

[Just Kreuzing]

Barass did say eddie is keen. The Question is , is SOS keen?

Has to be little cost to this....

Something like the Hodge & Lewis deals.....

 

[Benaly28]

If it was up to Teague only,Betts plays next year.

 

[The Flying Doormat]

So, we can stop with the Sam Gray banter?

If it was up to me only, I plays next year...…….

 

[BlueTongue]

Every single list manager ever talking about draftees coming from good families. Two players nearly identical in talent. One is a private school boy from the city whos parents are together and one is an indigenous kid from central Australia wbos parents are divorced, you really think that a recruiter is choosing the latter? And how is then that selection alone based on merit. I'm not ITK when it comes to AFL but I'm a former Youthworker and drug and alcohol worker.

Jeff Garlett shoots a hole straight through your point though...

And Penberthey is not even a football writer. Would not have run with this without Betts knowing.

Exactly what I thought...I work for News Corp and love and read the Aus paper and I’ve never seen a sport related story from him.

Marketing and membership managers at Carlton....

Package deal, we will get both and they can work out between themselves over there who takes Polson.

 

[bluemahogany]

So this might actually be happening, I'm excited. He still has the forward craft we crave. We obviously won't pay a high pick to get him and I hope Adelaide subsidise some of his salary. Though it does kind of worry me that we may have given up on Papley this year.

but **** yeah Eddieeeeeeeeeeee

 

[Opine]

Barass did say eddie is keen. The Question is , is SOS keen?

We have a train with interchangeable ID that may help answer that question.
All aboard the Betts train!!!!!

 

[rp84]

Don't see why anyone is against it. He is so much better than any forward pocket option we have. In fact, Eddie at 40 will be better than any of out current options.

 

[Juddrockz]

Never ever doubt Barass70.

I 'm not one of the poster's that have ever doubted Barass70 in all my years here.

Return of the 3 amigos

 

[Elmer_Hauser]

My cynical head said no to Eddie coming back, but the heart wants what the heart wants !!

 

[LanceRomance]

I hope he comes back because I am going to tag everyone who told me he definitely wouldn't.

It's going to be amazing. Tremendous. Everybody thinks so.

Except Soapy V

Eddie turned 40 about 3 seasons ago....,pretty sure...

 

[David Sylvian]

OK here goes...….Went to the Adelaide/Richmond grand final parade with family, 75 yrs to 6yrs old, mostly Tiggers supporters, kind of chaotic, arrived when the Cows were being herded on to the backs of the Toyotas before setting off for the parade. One of the TV channels were interviewing Bettsy. As we strolled past, being the no filter kind of guy, I yelled out "Eddy , come back to Carlton we need you" He glanced over his shoulder stopped himself and kept chatting with the reporter. My better half dragged me off telling me how embarrassing I was etc etc.

I always credit myself for his non performance that day, so I will happily take the credit for his triumphant return (IF it happens)

Teaguey will make Eddie feel like eddie again
