Bluemour Melting Pot XXVI

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...

Carlton 09 generally has some decent mail BUT IMO this is purely blues playing the long game pumping up prices.

Pies have zero net improvement in their list. They are really ready to implode too.

It has that feeling of a finals humiliation that will flow on to the next year. GWS this year, Port after that horrible GF etc

 

[Brutalitops]

Didn't even know Stephenson was playing until I read on Collingwood's board that he is lol.

Not sure he's even touched it. Sure tough conditions for a forward but all he's good for is getting on the end of easy ball and kicking goals...when it gets tough he's useless. Not a tough, defensive bone in his body. Collingwood posters are sick of him.

2 disposals at 3/4 time...

Yet another season, where a so call elite ruckman won't win a flag

Give me a ruck/forward or one that pushes forward, any day of the week

Looking at you TDK

Now, I want another

I see your point (and I agree), but Scott Lycett is a bloody good footballer and ruckman.

 

[Blue and Blue]

Dont think this season should be taken seriously......totally pointless other than to keep folks off the streets during lockdowns

 

[passmark]

McGovern is suffering the same issue As a lot of small/medium forwards.

they’re more a reflection of how a team is going rather than match winners themselves.

When we’re motoring nicely so will he.

Papley is a bit different and that’s why I love him.

He is, yet another that can rest forward, take a grab and kick a sausage

 

[RoyalBlues]

DeGoey to Carlton has failed the family test 0/5.

Mama Bear X
Papa Bear X
Sister Bear X
Brother Bear X
OG Bear X

Definitely seems unbearable

Eddies face is very red.

Collywould but Collywobble

If Collingwood are in cap trouble then go for J.Elliott.
Sure he has risks attached due to injury but I'd rather gamble on a player who might have to be in medical rehabilitation then criminal rehabilitation.

Love him.

Not sure you're a fan of Pitto since you've excluded him from the conversation for TDK but actually he's the perfect kind of ruck to fit your point.
As long as you have a combative, physical ruck who plays his role it's all you really need rather than a 'superstar' ruck.

Brisbane - Martin
Port - Lycett
Richmond - Nankervis
Hawks winning premierships with McEvoy.

They're just good, solid, physical rucks. Pitto has shown some good stuff this year in that sense...let's not forget he's only 24 and played like 18 games...still very young for a ruckman and could really improve over the next few years. Has shown to be a pretty good mark actually...not so much in terms of goals but he can improve in that area. Besides TDK didn't actually show much as a forward at AFL level this year either.

He could absolutely be the ruck we're after.

 

[La Dispute]

Perfect result really.

JDG’s faith in Collingwood waivers, Collingwood misuse him as per usual and he hardly touches it which drives down his value...

Looking forward to the post game update.

I shall - now you bake some bread.........

Happy to - as long as it’s gluten free lol

Being Coeliac is a pain the arse.

 

[thylacine60]

oh, man - that's difficult to deal with..........feel your pain.........

 

[Garters]

First time I've had a good look at Geelong for a while Parfitt looks the goods. Is he in any trade discussions with any club or one of their keepers?

Do you have the duhrings disease complication too?

 

[AB_Blue]

Conspiracy theory....hear me out

DeGoey (or his management) approach us and ask if we are keen. We say “yea sure” knowing full well we don’t have the currency to snag him as we have our hands full already.

This ultimately pushes up his price and keeps Collingwood’s cap tight

Meanwhile we leak our interest to the media who have a field day with it and all of a sudden everyone stops talking about Saad and Dodo

No.

Have found Two Bays gluten free beer which is a God send.

Only joshing.....you never know eh......

 

[cookie monster]

His father is his manager.

Happens all the time - player agent fees aren’t cheap (although with some of the inflated contract offers you hear in the media, might be worth it).

An old school-mate of mine was managed by his father his whole career, and there were quite a few teammates in the same situation.

Player agents make a lot of sense if the player is genuinely capable of making money outside of football as they can generate a lot of non football revenue streams (ie. Media, advertising, appearances, etc)

If the player isn't interested or isn't capable of that side of the caper, going it alone makes a lot of sense

 

[BigFrizz36]

Have the Swans offered Ben Ronke a new contract yet? Overshadowed by Papley at the Swans, could be a possibility of picking him up cheaply?

Literally no gòod.

 

[SkyhorseTamer]

No.

There's a couple decent enough gf beers floating around. A couple of awful ones too.

Never.............

In all seriousness Thy there are benefits.

Forced me to eat simpler healthier food - not necessarily a bad thing.

 

[thylacine60]

sure - any time I've avoided gluten I've really noticed the benefits.........
