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

[Soapy V]

Soapy...simple question about this mystery player if you don't mind...what would be his approximate ranking in his own team (at his best)?

Top 7, top 10???

Sorry but I can't. I have shared with a Mod so it can be revealed when appropriate whether right or wrong.

 

[Soapy V]

Again we are asleep at the wheel

In regards to what?

 

[CCurnow3votes]

I don’t understand how they will get this done and Bailey Smith

Ahh not to worry - nice swell at Bells.

That’s all that matters.

How so?

 

[Aphrodite]

Again we are asleep at the wheel

In what way?

Having the keys to a fully restored “HX Sandman” waiting in your locker on your first day helps too

Fair enough
Thanks for the provocation regardless

Could Geelong going after Oliver, free up possibility of STK being traded to free up draft capital for them? Cant see how they get Oliver and Smith without multiple 1st round picks

 

[HarryFlashman]

Reckon that’s about as reliable as Hanneberry being fit & in form at St Kilda

 

[bradfisher14]

I sincerely doubt that Dan Hannebery is getting reliable mail out of the Cats ...

... but since he's telling me what I want to hear, I'm inclined to believe it.

May not be out of the Cats, could have someone closer to Sam.

Still think it's a very big long shot of course.

Smith will cost picks, Oliver not so much, Geelong was given pick 7 to take on Bowes.
Oliver’s contract is significantly larger & Bowes had no “issues”

Wonder who Melbourne would target if Clarry left.

Could be doing a mini rebuild before Tassie I suppose.

Houston?

Kennedy would make sense, make Geelong pay our price for him, take the cap dump & keeps Trac happy.

If the situation is untenable to keep him at the club they may just have to take it directly in the butt on him.
Oliver has to agree to any trade & if it’s a force out they aren’t going to get anywhere near real market value.

Loving this, someone’s gunna cop it & it’s not us

He called it his 'mail' so it must be credible..... surely

 

[bmaurizio]

Oliver and Smith are A graders, high quality midfielders no doubt , if the Cats can mange to complete these trades then a good young player may be let go in the process.
Cats achieve an undisputed elite midfield, reckon a quality tall defender may just be moved on.

 

[Sam The Doc]

Houston deal in limbo according to Cal Twomey … so please Blues walk away it’s gonna cost way too much

It was never going to be cheap. many years left in his contract doesn't help...

 

[Crippa#9]

Wouldn’t completely dismiss this.

Young guy, well connected and dipping his toe in the media world.

No doubt he has some senior figures that are keen to give him a leg up with some credible info to build his own credibility.

Player managers is where the majority of ‘mail’ is shared - unwittingly or, in most cases, wittingly.

 

[TENACIOUS]

Dee’s may not ask for a pick, they may even pass on a pick if the Cats take all his salary.

These types of deals are now at the forefront of list managers minds…

If it’s a bowes like deal, I’d be disappointed if we’re not putting our name forward or using this to pry SDK out of Geelong…

Exactly and Cats have form with these sort of transactions

 

[Bfevola]

Geelong, Collingwood, all being aggressive. Hawthorn very smart work.

I sure hope we are being very smart to add pieces that will help us take the next step.

Rather than thinking we are already there, and going after Houston and pay whatever.

I want role players that will be part of best 22, and not for the sake of it.

I have this feeling we are getting 32 year old Haynes and nothing else.

Yep im negative, but you have to be with this team so you dont get let down.

Dont get me wrong, would love some high draft picks, but we need some 25 year old big bodies for the now while the young ones come on without pressure.
