Rumour Bluemour Discussion XXXV - 'Loopy' Season has begun

[swuzzlebubble]

But could Sandy way be as simple as Sandringham near St Kilda?

Sandy are Stkilda's VFL team which might not bode well

 

[BIuebagger]

Hollands deal all but done. Easy deal
Dow will go through. Couple of others things to fall with it
Still looking to get an earlier pick. Could easily happen draft night
Looking at 1 or 2 "mature" players to help with depth.
I am not expecting more than 3 draft picks

Tomorrow could be exciting for Blues fans

Thanks for the info, Soapy. DFAs or late picks for mature players, hmm. Only know of the Crozier rumours but interested to see who else might be targeted as a depth player if true

Billings has been a fixture in the VFL this year from memory...

 

[Bfevola]

Is Domenic Bedendo from the bulldogs part of the pieces? Someone mentioned him on another site.

 

[Forty3]

If Hollands can follow the example of his younger brother and refocus on football we’ve got a steal.
There are reasons he’s so cheap, hopefully the new environment will bring about a positive change.

Interesting, thank you Forty. Hopefully he has his head screwed on right coming here and we foster change in his passion and commitment, if he’s been a bit unprofessional. Can I please ask if you’ve also heard the same that a deal is agreed?

Hmmmmm.
Doesn't exactly inspire with confidence. Little brother a good influence? I'm assuming we checked that Ollie actually would be excited to play with Elijah?

 

[Red_man2008]

26 24 as part of the GC deal?

Two separate picks are moving up.

 

[Matty411]

Now when you say tomorrow could be a good day for us, Soapy V are we talking:

• Relief that reasonable deals for Dow and Hollands get done;
• Or a surprise might be coming our way?

Please and thank you for your clarification.

 

[swuzzlebubble]

If that is part of the Dow deal and is all we lose/gain it values Dow at pick 69.

Of course "moving two picks up the draft" could mean

Two separate picks are moving up.

I was literally in midst of typing this as another option.
Saints 22-21
GC 26-24

 

[C4[2]Yo`DooR]

Two separate picks are moving up.

Will they become one earlier pick?

 

[swuzzlebubble]

Will they become one earlier pick?

It presumably gets us closer

 

[RoyalBlues]

GThought you'd be well into anything to do with posts sheepy.
Scratch that it itch!

That might be of‘fence’ive MBR

Elijah sure isnt going to want to be in the VFL while his little brother is playing seniors. Even if Ollie can't "influence" Elijah, a little sibbling rivalry won't hurt.

I’m not looking forward to seeing their heated conversations after match selection.

Elijah: “Michael (Voss), I was passed over for my kid brother… this ain’t the way I wanted it dammit!!!”

Oops!

Did you delete that nasty ‘post‘ post mate. Hoof in mouth.

He's already been ruled out.

Did he post in the rumours only thread?

Thanks for the inside info. Much appreciated.
Bring on Monday!

Said earlier this year that E.Hollands looks like he's fallen off a cliff performance wise... so im glad the ITK info supports that and it isn't my eyes going on me at the ripe old age of 27. When he made his debut last year he looked hardened and hungry for opportunity and this year he's looked like a total plodder. Still has a lovely kick on him but was weak, fumbly and timid in 2023.

Hoping being in a team with Ollie with Vossy and Crippa leading the troops will be enough for him to get back on track. His natural talent is massive but he needs a huge pre season and some supportive teammates who will get him back to the game winner he was in juniors.

Yep, not excited at all on exposed form. As it stands we are losing two far superior depth players.

We're probably due for a gamble on potential to pay off though.
