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

[stavro#4]

We will throw you a F3 and Cerra for your F1

You know what.

I reckon we could bite on that.

My club will throw stupid amounts of money on that free agent crop next year. The future first wouldn’t hold huge value for us (as long as expected we land p8 for Battle)

I’d gladly do it. Not sure Carlton would though.

Damian Barrett on the Sunday footy show was saying pick 11 will have to be used and a bit more to get Houston to the club

Damien Barrett lacks imagination.

If you start from the premis that Young & Cerra are not that good and we are 8th, if we are offered late first for cerra and late 2nd for young, in a deep draft-take a calculated risk. My criticism of Austin is his list management does not move the dial. This type of move can be a game changer

Talking Carlton

I checked it out once years ago, couldn't handle the colour scheme

Same! I used to go on CarltonSC years ago, but realised most of those posters posted here anyway. And Big Footy posters were often referenced for rumors and news so just spend my days lurking here now

Clancy Dennis listed at 192cm to 194cm 18 yo 75kg. Good KPD height. Can't find a write up

It’s sounding more and more like we will have to lose Cerra to accomodate Houston.

Not a fan of that personally. Cerra fills a position we need more and is younger.

Lord ready to step in

Not a fan of selling on Cerra at his absolute lowest value tbh.

 

[Loose at HB]

Come in peace fellas

I had heard during the week and posted on the saints board we had an interest in Cerra and would explore what that looked like.

(not saying anything was guaranteed to Happen just that there was interest.)


With us dropping out of the pursuit of Houston.

If it happened, it’s likely we could be the club who helps you facilitate a deal. Although I couldn’t imagine us parting with a top 10 pick directly for Cerra.

He’s had a shocking year with injury but he was just about our best midfielder in 2023.

He’s only 24, was a previous pick 5 and we ourselves paid pick 6 + a third rounder for him 3 years ago.

If he is genuinely on the market we are selling at a low but even considering this year - a first round pick would be the centrepiece of any deal

It’s a tricky one- at his best, he is a valuable contributor. However, if he doesn’t get his hamstrings right, he’ll be worth even less in 12 months time.

 

[mochacinolatte]

We must have a very good midfielder lined-up if we willing to trade Cerra away.

Very hard to get over reoccurring soft tissue injuries... not saying it hasn't been done before, but if I'm Carlton, I wouldn't be keen to bank on his chances.

Saints or Melbourne however, might see it as a risk worth taking. His value right now might still get us a decent first rounder.

Another season where he hasn't overcome his injuries and his value plummets.

l don't believe that is the intention at all.
The club is committed to get Cerra back to full fitness & durability hence his upcoming trip overseas.
He is young & should be back to his best form next year.
lf Houston does eventuate more likely to be trading a F1st into this year with a club that has multiple 1st rounders & something else possibly with Carroll & Owies trades.

It's either that, or we trade him for a first rounder to get the Houston deal done.

 

[Accidental genius]

Lord coming thru is another aspect...

Lord is a different player to cerra of course but he does change the mid balance up a little and as a result it may lessen the need for cerra.

 

[Benaly28]

Cerra at best with his injuries and form would be a top 20 pick unfortunately and more specifically 15-20.

The Cerra talk is interesting because i remember i think was last week on the midweek tackle the journalist from the herald sun said someone high up told him that we could get the petracca deal done with Cerra …

So maybe it’s known that Cerra is available

I guess you must have missed the piece about Cerra going overseas to treat his hammy and how he’s looking for a contract extension. I think I saw it in the HS.

HS yeah they get it right all the time

Yep whilst not an upgrade on individual talent he could be an upgrade on fit/balance for the role required, particularly if Houston comes in streaming off half back receiving the quick hands from the likes of Lord!

 

[Just Kreuzing]

HS yeah they get it right all the time

He may get a revised contract with more years added but just may not be with us!

 

[carlton_99]

HS yeah they get it right all the time

An ITK on here also said he was signing a 5 year extension. Things may have changed but if Cleary reported talks beginning its a good sign imo that the rumour is true that he is extending

Seriously your team leads to lay off Carlton. Since the 80’s your club has been obsessed with us and our players. Over it.
