Rumour Bluemour Discussion XXXV - 'Loopy' Season has begun

[thylacine60]

Did you know Holland doesn’t exist anymore so all the surnames will now need to change

Holland to Netherlands

Hollands to Netherlandses

When both retire Hollands to Never Never Lands.....

 

[The Old Dark Navy's]

Gold Coast isn’t haggling.
They are completely happy to deal Hollands for cheap as chips.
Even paying some of his salary.
They just waiting to see if they can get some point for this year or future.
Won’t cost much, they don’t want him. He will be a blue.

Very reasonable by them. If we can get Hollands for whatever we get for Dow, it makes it a decent deal for us.

As a SOS fan, I still think he's being a pr*ck. These later picks don't make or break him.

Um yes it does...

It really isn't

Listen knackers...more than half your posts are directly in response to me.

I'm quite certain I'm not worth the emotional investment. Find another muse.

I find this Elijah Hollands situation confusing. Seems like a depth player? Rather than best 22?

I think the answer (right now) is neither.

If he pulls himself together off-field and recovers some of his junior athleticism, he is very likely to be best 22.

If he doesn't, he won't even be fringe.

Flip of a coin. But worth the risk for a cheap pick/pick upgrade.

More talent and more x factor than his brother.
Just needs the environment change and the full support of his team and coaches.

After the Jack Martin discussions with GC, this is so good to hear.

Can you get a warranty on a vaguely pedo user name?

Now that's how you defame...

Vaguely?

To be play Devil's advocate, SOS called Dodo and *'s bluff, forcing them to pony up 700 K per season (lol) for a battler in Gresham !

What a ridiculous overpay lol

It's okay to just admit you were wrong, no need to get sensitive. Have a nice day

Pretty sure they combined them into PEDs at Essendon Keilor College...

I went there when it was called Keilor Heights High School........

And plenty of PED's for me too.

Loved the kick to kick on the concrete basketball courts, going for hangers with twenty plus kids at each end.

CARNAGE!

Also very fond memories of girls in VERY SHORT school dresses (that I was way too shy to ever talk to).

The funny thing is my wife works there now .

Would rather keep Dow IMO.

 

[The Dominator7]

Just waiting for Stig to chime in with the Malcolm McLaren reference

 

[Manhattanite]

Both picks will come in pretty significantly as you can count on GC's picks in the 20's getting wiped.

Could be as many as 5 picks higher so it's a smaller slide than it looks

The only thing with this is we don’t know if Gold Coast will hold their current second rounders or trade them for lower picks with more combined points

They could trade them pre-draft or even during the draft once the first of their academy picks gets picked and hence they know more about how many total points they actually need

Bit of risk for potentially high reward with Hollands2 I guess.

Hopefully though he's not the Troy Menzel

Who was the first to start talking Double Dutchy around here? Was it media driven? Seems it goes back a bit. Regardless, hat's off!

There was some muppet banging on about it back in June.....

"IMO, I'd rather target Elijah Hollands - get the brothers together.

He's wasting his time at GCS stuck in the magoo's behind Rowell, Anderson, Miller etc. Still contracted, but wouldn't be at all surprised if he requests a trade at some stage. Don't reckon Gold Coast would stand in his way either..."

List Mgmt. - 2023 List Management

Not a fan of the bloke but you’d think Wingard would be out the door of HFC this year. Out of form (or perhaps washed up) but a handy medium-forward type we need. Would have to be on a peanuts contract for us to consider and/or if any other suitors are willing to stump up any offer/s to obtain...

Suns admit they want him gone. I hope he doesn't affect Ollie negatively.

"Then who are the Dutch?" Classic Seinfeld episode

Getting him away from the Gold Coast has to be a good thing if he's a bit prone to, well, stuff less than professional players might do.

I can only assume Nick Austin is updating Wikipedia on the fly

Would rather keep Dow IMO.

Dow may be the more talented player, but Hollands I feel fits into our system and game plan better and is 2 years younger.
