Rumour Bluemour Discussion XXXVII - 'Loopy' Gone Off The Rails

“look into my eyes, you are feeling relaxed and hypnotised…you feel weightless … you will hand over a first round pick”

The next person who mentions Kemp in the same sentence as midfield is getting sent to have their delusions assessed.

He is a tweener. At best an average 3rd tall defender. Probably more potential up forward but tiny sample size.

I'm more than happy to keep him for now, with a full season up forward

I'd drive a hard bargain.. pick in the 20s and Membrey with them paying 80%. Otherwise, SOS can GAGF

Played mid in draft year. Has all the qualities, why not?

By the time both of their careers are finished, Ben’s sister will have played as many AFLW games as Ben will have played AFL games.

I wanted all three Silvagni boys to make it.

Jack = SOSOS (son of SOS)
Ben = BOSOSOS (brother of)
Tom = OBOSOSOS (other brother of)

You are getting sleeeeeeepppyyyyy....


No hypnotist needed. Just watch 5 mins of a Ross Lyon team

Don’t think Kemp is any chance of leaving.

SOS mustn’t rate Kemp that much. If he publicly chases him and isn’t willing to step up to get it done.

I’d do Schoenmaker and a F2 or a 2024 Pick in the teens.

Leave Schoenmaker alone. Plenty of reports that suggest that there's something not quite right there.

Josh Jenkins strikes me as the type of guy that would use tissues as toilet paper.

Is that up to the coach to decide or the list manager

 

[Coona Blues]

Sam Day to replace Joe ...

Is a good call. Had a purple patch this year when got on park. Was flying, then injured again after five or so games. Lions have had a happy knack of getting injury prone blokes on the park. Given where they are at and the minimal cost, it is a good gamble.

SOS uses a Bidet

Geez with the proposed Rioli deal, Richmond are going to have a mega draft hand. Pressure on them to not **** it up!

Give one example where a club has gone scorched earth and it has worked out?

As the saying goes, you never go full Melbourne, and Richmond have done exactly that.

 

[koutashoulda1_1]

The fact that we’ve said we’d have accepted 27 tells you that we’re comfortable with that side of it. Who knows what we have planned for the drafts?

Not necessarily a 'fact'...

I don't know any examples. Others might.

I agree this is pretty scorched earth and if they don't nail most of their picks, they will be bottom feeders for at least the next 5 years. It'll make WCE slump look like a blip.

 

[koutashoulda1_1]

Think Pies are about to/already have signed him.. Probably not much left in him tbh

Basically Owies rolewise but eats more at club functions

one could counter argue that they were there anyhow, and the blokes they have got rid of are the finishing pieces - not the bed rocks of success

Is he the musical one?

 

[koutashoulda1_1]

I don't want to trade Kemp either, but at this point most of his value is in his potential upside rather than what has proven on the field (so far).

Same as but less speculative than the 2nd round draft picks that have been suggested

I'd trade McGovern before Kemp.

It’s actually the water fountain in the stk gym

It's something I picked up on recently, that McRae seems to be driving the list strategy and not the list manager. The story for similar coaches in the past have all ended in exactly the same way...

They need to fill out their list / rookie list with as much mature age/ DFA types as possible after bringing in a batch of high end talent.

While I agree, if Voss for example jagged us a flag then blew the list up, if still be happy

 

[jj1978]

I wouldn't rule out SOS bidding for him just to spite us.

Then he truly has turned to the dark side and many CFC fans hearts would be broken. I for one shall remove all memory of him and replace him with Chris Langford as the fullback of the century.
