Rumour Bluemour Discussion XXXV - 'Loopy' Season has begun

[Fernando2Gibbs]

Please stop talking about Stringer. The wording of the article suggests Laverde, and everyone has plucked the wrong name out of it.

Laverde is no better, at least in his current role, but if you're going to lose your lunch, do it for the right reasons.

It is Stringer - we have offered a 2 year deal.

People do take significant pay cuts to leave places they don't want to be in anymore.

A big benefit to us is that Trac isn't a RFA or UFA. We can easily restructure his contract, add an extra year etc, and from all reports the contract is all but agreed IF a trade can be manufactured and agreed.

Don't ruin peoples Saturdays with jokes like that

 

[The Old Dark Navy's]

Then the article made a mistake.

There’s another article that Stringer’s been told that if he wants a contract extension beyond 2025, he’s welcome to find another club:

‘Welcome to look elsewhere’: Dons duo denied new deals; Roos eye veteran move — Trade Whispers

‘Welcome to look elsewhere’: Dons contract drama; Roos eye veteran — Trade Latest

Still a No from me.

This will ne the dumbest thing I will read today. Absolutely no chance this flog comes anywhere near the club

No problem just letting you know what I’ve been told.

Not much good can come out of *, Saad aside.

But didn't you say a few years ago we had agreed to a deal for De Goey.

Also something something Clarry from memory.

 

[blue healer]

Well, this fired up

Bloody fun to dream though

He can find another Club but NOT CARLTON.

Pretty sure Linton St would be interested and he would be a perfect fit down there.

We had on both accounts - agreeing to get a player across vs getting a deal done are completely different things.

No stress I’ll go back to not posting

 

[Accidental genius]

god i hope that is a joke RE the package

 

[The Blue Weirdo]

I love the trade period.
Really brings bigfooty outrage to the surface.

Doesn't pass our No Dickhead Policy for a start I'd have thought.

 

[Sweet Seventeen]

The only thing huge would be Stringer's guts.
He would add zero to the team. Lazy, selfish and conditional. NO NO NO NO NO

And his penchant for under age girls. We can do without these types.

Fit right in over at the Aints though.

exact type we do not need and should stay right away

Stop sprouting shit. Not going to happen

Great decision

 

[Sweet Seventeen]

Regarding Bartel…in what role would we have him?
I don’t mind him…

He will be the Marchy replacement. Just needs to be available once every 3 months and show genuine leadership.

 

[zeggie]

I can't see Stringer moving anywhere. He's reached the trigger for 2025 with Essendon. It presumably won't have significant performance and games triggers that every single other club would demand be included.

 

[BringFevBack2021]

On Stringer, a friend that has worked with him reckons he is a pleasure to deal with

I’ve met him myself when he played at the Dogs

This same friend told me that Hind would be getting the flick as soon as his contract was up as he was horrible to deal with

Take it with a grain of salt as peoples opinions of people are entirely subjective but personally I don’t see the huge issue

Pies have JDG
Richmond had Dusty
Hawks had Lake
Dogs had Libba, Stringer
Geelong have Stengle

Everyone takes a chance with maligned players or works with troubled players to make them integrate with their group provided the net upside is worthwhile

 

[r2blues2]

He would without a doubt pick Collingwood over us if this ever happened

I already confirmed he has already chosen us. This has come from a person who could only possibly make the deal happen will take a pay cut.

 

[Doro]

Stringer would be an interesting one, if Martin goes then a plausible 30-40 goal replacement. Doubt the club would have the cahones to ride the public backlash over personality though .
