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

[BrisbaneCFC]

A list that was sitting 2nd until round 20 and made it to a prelim last year?

The absolute exception to the rule.

I don't think this group is good enough for top 4 finishes. What constitutes our current best 22 isnt good enough to win a flag IMO. Moving on the injured trio and maybe Owies, Carroll Kennedy etc, and adding Haynes doesnt move the needle one iota for us IMO.

We were 2nd with a few rounds to go in one of the closest seasons we've ever seen...

They are good enough, we will need to see what happens this off season, but they first and foremost need to buy in.

We need an injection of speed, agility, skill and more skill all over the ground. Next few trade periods are crucial, so let hope we have some luck. Lions have extremely lucky with father and son concessions 4 1st rounders a champion midfield over 2 seasons. They’ll be a super team for the next 5 years as their talent matures together.

Can we give the “we were 2nd on the ladder” BS a rest - Hawks were 13th - Brisbane was 13th while we were 2nd too, who the **** cares!

It’s where u finish that counts!
Being 2nd on 11-12 wins doesn’t mean anything if that doesn’t translate to 15+ wins and top 4.

Getting spanked by Hawthorn & losing to the Pies & Saints is a hell of a lot more relevant than “we were 2nd”

If you want to go down that train of thought, then bottling the Giants and Dogs games are far more relevant than the Hawks or Saints games.

 

[DirtyLeeds]

Yes your right, but we were second.......

Expect a big bombshell to happen within the next week (not Joe Daniher related)

That does not qualify as a rumour. There is always big news week after the GF. More info needed.

Half of the things that have been said on this topic don't qualify as a rumour. Lots of them seem list management related

Anything else you can add would be appreciated.
Good bombshell? Bad bombshell?
Been floated on here, or new ground?
