Rumour Bluemour Discussion XXXVII - A return to normalcy

[Blue1980]

Okay. Wilson.

Owens if they don't budge on that.

 

[Bletch]

Shame Chugga finished on 99 games with us. Brad Fishered

We might need to recruit him for a game as sub in 2040...

 

[Stamos]

Wish Chugga had have played 1 more game for us.
But it's the right decision for him to move on. Hope we get decent compensation.

 

[ForYouBlue]

Both Kennedy and owies are clearly great lads that add tremendously to culture, which is one of the most important factors. It really is sad to see them go. It makes me resent our list management to date, going so hard at similar types to fill gaps and seemingly, arrogantly if so, tried to fir square pegs into round holes around the ground. Hopefully this is the only necessary growth pains towards a more mature, stable list management over the next decade and more!

 

[Soapy V]

First time in a while that our side in round 1 (or 0) is going to look different, while not stars, Owies and Bam Bam were regulars and great clubman.

We absolutely thank you for your service lads. Go well at your new homes.

That being said, this administration is definitely working differently this off season, I like it.

We are making the tough decisions to become better. Good clubs do this

If it was about just keeping good people both would stay. Tough business

 

[Blue1980]

Wish we'd offer jsos to the saints to see what happens

Picks 7 & 8 our way?

And deeply religious farmers aren't half partial to a baby or 7.

 

[Sin City]

Sounds like Kennedy deal will happen

I hate this one. Played every game, more than capable on baller and half forward. Best clubman. This will hurt the club.

 

[Wickzki]

Big culture change going to take place over the summer.

Don't underestimate what people like Kennedy and Owies mean to a football club on field output aside.

You’d be spinning knowing there’s a chance you get to Carlton who played in a prelim in 2023 and need a POD midfielder especially given how all of these kids are

Walsh: "hey cous, want you to meet someone"
Finn: "whom"
Walsh: "Charlie Curnow, he's got a few draft pointers for you."
Finn: "okay, is there anything I have to do?"
Charlie: "It's what you don't have to do..."

Yeap, it’s finally noticeable, there’s a different demeanour around the club, especially starting with Austin. Love it.

 

[jj1978]

Maybe now Kemp being spoken of as a forward why would he want to go to the stains and play back again???

 

[Its an amigo!]

A little sad about this. Kennedy had become one of my favourite players. I know he isn't the best, just seems like such a nice guy and i know he has ridden a lot of the lows at our club. Always happy to play a role to help the team.

 

[4flagsin5yrs]

get him back for one game - 100%.

Fisher too?

 

[KJP7]

Interesting that Brendon Bolton has left the pies to take up an assistant coaching role at the saints, great pick up for them and the rats are seemingly jumping ship at the pies.

 

[morningbrown]

Bam Bam leaving has made a bad day even worse for me. Horrendous list management on top of the Owies decision. We've ripped the heart out of the club.

 

[ESKIE]

Aww MK love him all the best Matt, bad day if your names Matt around Carlton

 

[Soapy V]

I hate this one. Played every game, more than capable on baller and half forward. Best clubman. This will hurt the club.

Yeh. I hate it as well. I keep going back to 2-3 year extensions for Durdin Cottrell Young before their deals were done. Just nuts

It has cost us players like Kennedy who is much better player, and IMO that is a massive mistake

 

[jj1978]

Why is this a move that shows he's bitter? If we're happy to move Kemp on for pick 8 then that's a trade that works for everyone - just because it's SOS doesn't mean it's some kind of revenge tour. If he's happy to pay overs for a contracted kid then win-win afaic.

Nah he's being a good dad here because Kemp was going to take JSOS's forward role next year.

 

[reg_lower91]

Have to imagine it'll be a three way trade...

NM: Daniel
Dogs: Kennedy
Blues: Pick 44

 

[Blue since 72]

Seems like a weird choice for him though, they seem pretty set for inside mids at the moment, no?

MaCrae going, perfect repalcement.

 

[Stamos]

NM: Daniel

Blues: Pick 44

Pick 44 is useless to us

 

[DollarsandSense]

Hmmmm Kennedy gone …. Means number 7 is available ..


Hello Sid Draper?

Oh goodness. Don’t do this to me. It’s too soon.

 

[Robbo's my hero]

Aww MK love him all the best Matt, bad day if your names Matt around Carlton

I hear Matt Cottrell is hiding under his bed.

 

[Coona Blues]

Odd thing is Dogs only have two picks in the 24' draft and both would be absorbed for us in Campo bid.

SOS at Saints has 32 and business to do with dogs, so should be targeted, so he can’t play games with a bid.
