Bluemour Melting Pot XXII

Does it worry anyone else that the guys who are in the high priced free agency wars seem to have pretty crap years after their mega-deal is done? Coniglio and Grundy haven't exactly set the world alight this year. Kelly hasn't seemed to become the next amazing midfielder that everyone thought...

Bluemour Melting Pot XXVII

As per the Bluemour File OP, this is a thread for discussing Carlton related rumours. http://www.bigfooty.com/forum/threads/bluemour-file.1085141/ Rumour posters should post their rumours in both threads for those that like just to read rumours and for those that like to have get lost in their...

Just like to thank Aphrodite and the other Carlton mods who started the Bluemours NON Discussion Thread and who have kept it free of chat over the past few years.

It helps so much when you just don't have the time to read through this thread, cheers and great job.

Any chance Port prefer Wines out to make room for Couch?

 

[BigBreakfast]

EFA.
Butlers bread & butter is getting to the fall of the ball, if Harry/Levi provide a contest - there's opportunities for crumbers.

He gets alot of goals off rebounds, slingshots and an uncongested forward line. I wouldn't describe our forward line as uncongested nor do we rebound considerable because we leave talls in the forward line. I don’t think Butler would have been AA in our forward line.

And our inside 50 entries suck the big one.

 

[The Blue Weirdo]

Hmmm interesting, Soapy says Crouch, Viney, Merret, Wines...Nope.

 

[ferrisb]

Oviously I dont know you, but Viney'd probably kill 99% of Big Footy posters if he ran through them

I reckon Caleb Daniel would knock me out cold....

 

[JustaBattler]

Well according to the latest postings - no Viney no Wines but still chatting with Saad and Graham

zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

 

[ferrisb]

Hmmm interesting, Soapy says Crouch, Viney, Merret, Wines...Nope.

Ah, the old Soap-a-Nope maneuver.....

 

[BigBreakfast]

When was our last player with a helmet?

Ashman?

 

[Gointocarlton]

Ashman?

Murph a few years ago, not full time but wore it for quite a few games.

 

[The Blue Weirdo]

Ah, the old Soap-a-Nope maneuver.....

Yes, he dances like a butterfly and stings like a bee.
edit. lol, butterfly's floated, I think.

 

[ferrisb]

Murph wore a helmet for a bit after he unsociably headbutted Hodge's elbow.

Simmo also wore one after Sharrod Wellingham was reported for attempted regicide...

 

[Brackets]

Wines would be similar to the Wingard deal, which was close enough to Burton and pick 15.

Burton had shown more than LOB/Dow, but not enough that I'd offer pick 7 along with one of them. Pick 7 alone should be enough, unless we can split it and throw on someone open to a new start.

 

[Own The Future]

Hmmm interesting, Soapy says Crouch, Viney, Merret, Wines...Nope.

Great get for Blues. Needed in the midfield
Saad also very close
One more very good mid in discussion

Charlie fully fit and in great nick
Kemp looking awesome
Jack fit and missed this year. Underrated

A fit Cripps will make a difference

Another pre season and a proper reserves which have really effected younger players this year and finals is a must in 2021

But does mention another very good mid...

 

[ferrisb]

Any chance Port prefer Wines out to make room for Couch?

I'm quite partial to having a couple of wines on the couch...

 

[J-dog]

Imagine if we manage to land Williams, Saad, Wines,Graham and Narkle and I think it's
definitely doable
If Austin gets it done he would of out done SOS in one trade period

If Austin can do it, then SOS would have built the Vatican and Austin would have painted the Sisteen Chapel

 

[HBF]

Any chance Port prefer Wines out to make room for Couch?

Could very well be.

 

[HBF]

We all know who Soapys contact is at the club, but i'd be amazed if he's getting this much list management info from LOB.
I'd be taking what he is saying with a grain of salt.

 

[Diamond Jim 007]

Ah, the old Soap-a-Nope maneuver.....

Dick Pratt always said get the best available.Hence Juddy became a Blue.
Zac WIlliams is the best running defender gettable.Got him
Viney is cooked. Look at him for the last 2 years
Saad can run but constantly bombs the ball and turns it over.
We can do better.
Need
Inside mid
Small forward
Back up developing ruck.
Time to splash the cash with back ended contracts.
Target players with offer to good to refuse.
I hope Austin plays his chips for the big score.
This done finals next year.

 

[BigBreakfast]

Compare both teams lists and success in that time frame...considering our list we had no option but play Murphy..If you think Murphy’s skills (kicking, handball and tackling) are A+ we are watching different games.

How many have you watched, historically?

 

[BigFrizz36]

Murph wore a helmet for a bit after he unsociably headbutted Hodge's elbow.

Simmo also wore one after Sharrod Wellingham was reported for attempted regicide...

None of them could hold a candle to the say big Harry rolled up with one on.
6 foot 10 bloke in a helmet!!

 

[Kramer1]

Ah, the old Soap-a-Nope maneuver.....

But if he's wrong, it's a lynchin'...soap on a rope...

 

[Mezzoculo]

Well according to the latest postings - no Viney no Wines but still chatting with Saad and Graham

zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Wonder what the vibe would be around here if we came out of trade 'week' with only Narkle and Williams as gains...
*pitchfork emoji*

 

[Jeremias]

Correct.

Just shows how desperate people are for a rumour.

 

[swuzzlebubble]

But does mention another very good mid...

Williams done
Graham 50/50. Decide after season
Saad a real chance and in discussions
Narkle very strong possibility
B.Crouch. No
Caldwell. I’m hoping
Viney. Not happening
Merret. Not happening
Wines. Not happening
All younger players staying
Charlie & Kemp fit and firing

 

[Salt Lake Cities]

We all know who Soapys contact is at the club, but i'd be amazed if he's getting this much list management info from LOB.

Was just thinking the same. It’s as if he’s on the board or something now, I wouldn’t have thought his known connection would know the kind of detail Soapy is providing...

 

[NewDarkNavyBlues]

Would take Soapy's rumours with a grain of salt but if we ended up with Saad and Graham on top of Williams I would be very happy.
