Rumour Bluemour Discussion XXXVII

And if Freo supporters didn't hate us enough already in the most one way rivalry in the history of the AFL....

That’s because you have to be relevant to be hated…

Cottrel is the best kick into fwd 50 at Carlton

I'm not sure even Matt's mum would have written this post... that's... that's an opinion, that's for sure.

Carrol's biggest issue for mine is that he just seems to lack killer instinct. Doesn't demand the footy at all.

He's an okay player overall and is still likely to carve out an okay career.

They don't call him bot for nothing.

If we are going for a FA mid would much rather LDU then Brayshaw.

Agreed. We have to keep recruiting the class of 2017 to make up for Dow.

I don’t think Freo will finish low enough on the ladder to be happy with the compensation they receive for Brayshaw.

I’m not sure what their salary cap situation is like post Bolton etc, but they may be inclined to match any salary to force a trade.






In which chase we won’t get him.

Yep, Brayshaw sits in their top 5, if not top 3.
You match bids for that type of talent.
You’re not getting fairly compensated by the league if say, that scenario involves a Cripps, Curnow or Walsh.

I feel like Fremantle are about to go full “hold my beer”.

What has Jack Carroll done to be rated so highly? Can someone please point me to even one AFL game that he was close to being among our best on the ground?

I think I remember him kicking 2 goals once....

But that's about it

A lot of other games where I'm yelling at the TV because he has turned it over....

Jack Carroll is probably sitting at home thinking how hard done by he is for getting delisted when Corey Durdin was given a 2 year contract and Matthew Cottrell was given a 3 year contract. If this club wants to be seen as ruthless with list decisions, then maybe they should go all in. No half measures. It’s just weird.

Cotts can be good when he is up and about...
Shown a lot more than Carroll....many more times...

I feel like Cerra might fall out of that midfield.

Trade back?

 

[TrueQldBlue]

I find that rumour extremely hard to believe. Brayshaw really isn’t the kind of player we need either.

Wow that is a weird thing to say....

Anyone would take Andy in a heartbeat....

We just booted 10 players and are replacing them with draftees+DFA/Rookies.

We also have 16 out of contract next season.

We'll have no issue stumping up the money for TDK

Geeze...

It looks like we can afford Crippa, Harry, Charlie and TDK....

I hope we can beat teams with only four fabulous players...

Charlie is going to miss hitting up Owies...
