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...

No interest in treloar but we haven't been approached by his team or pies in any case. Could be a three way trade with us hawks and cats.

 

[Stamos]

but I'd think a good starting point strategy would be to aim for taking at least 3 top 30 picks every 2 years, with at least one of those being a 1st rounder. Keep topping up the bottom end of the list with talent so as the older players move on we've got the cattle coming through to replace them.

Don't do a Hawthorn/* where they've gone 3+ years without taking any top end kids and now have real bottom end list balance issues.

Agree generally.
However I won't be at all fussed if we only take 1 top 30 pick in the next 2 drafts.

 

[BrisbaneCFC]

No thanks.

Give me Oliver every day of the week over Treloar.

Thanks for the info!

Is the three way trade just picks, or are there players involved?

Could be the 7 for two firsts trade involving the Hawks somehow, or Titch could be on the move like it's been rumored.

Hmmm, what do we want from cats or hawks?
Is there something in Titchell being traded, and Stocker to hawks?

 

[BrisbaneCFC]

Would still take Merrett from that list.

!00%, lay the ground work now for next year when he is a FA.

 

[reubs1066]

Not sure if this is already up?

 

[ferrisb]

Players will be free to meet each other (virtually of course) and make counter offers. Saad for instance says to Merret. I am am telling Carlton I will play for $650k. Merret says ok I am telling Austin 600 so there.....and so on and so on. Hunter tells them both he can beat that .......Oliver even lower......Fyffe says I will pay them to let me play.

Bargaining power is finally there in full for the players.

That's a Dutch auction.

Our pick 7 I'd say for multiple picks.

I'm guessing its an opportunity for Cats to get #7 and Hawks are keen on Treloar. They're all in on any player - few aside, they're near incapable of developing their own recently. Would that not be a four-team trade with Pies, then?

Also, 2Phones going with 75%?! Ridiculous. Even if Oliver nominates and wants to leave, I'd have it as 50%. He's obviously trying to position himself as a 'you heard it here first' on the odd chance we pull it off.

75% chance? Coming from two phones?

Sorry fellas, no Clarry this year

 

[rp84]

The irony is you're the only one ranting.

Reubs' post was full of logical arguments and this is your response.

Just ignore. Cleans up the thread nicely.

 

[Skull Face]

Huh, very interesting.

Not sure why Geelong would trade for Smith, they're pretty well stocked for wingers unless he's coming at a bargain price.

I'd guess 21 + Smith for 16, 11/15+21 to us for 7?

 

[HARKER]

So, if Treloar was being pushed out, surely Collingwood have some incoming mids.
Pendelbury will be 33, Sidebottom 30 Greenwood 32 and Dayne Beams......well, he's otherwise occupied.

They must have something on the go, other than throwing DeGoey in, to do the hard lifting.

 

[Metalcrusher]

I agree.

But...

Treloar is good, but not great. His possessions very frequently are not the difference between winning and losing; he needs 35+ disposals to be a matchwinner. It isn't next year we need him for, either; we need a sophisticated an multifaceted midfield in 2022-26, and we need to not decrease in quality between now and then. Treloar if he was 3 years younger would be more than acceptable, but right now he's a prick of a combination of overpaid, 28 by the start of next season, injury prone, and not really that good.

It depends on cost. If he takes a hit on the contract he took from Collingwood, and he prioritizes a flag before money, then I'd be interested, age and injuries be damned. If he insists on a payday to go with his trade, nope. Go to North, mate.

**** Treloar. Better fish out there.

If it involves us getting Duncan, happy to have a look at it

Van Der Har Har

Wouldn't think we'd be able to afford that amount of Winnie Blues in the salary cap mate

 

[Stamos]

Treloar is just the wrong player for us. Way too expensive for what he would bring.
Makes sense for the Filth to try to ship him off, they're paying him too much for their list balance.

 

[mochacinolatte]

I like Trealor, line breaker.

Would only give a mid-first rounder max for him though.

 

[Benaly28]

No offence but if Treloar kicked it to Oliver or vice versa they’d both be going at 33% efficiency.

Is there anyone else we are not interested in that hasn't approached us?

 

[Arr0w]

Ultimately, even if we do a 3 way deal with the Cats and Hawks, the possible outcome would be losing pick 7 and gaining two picks in the 15 -21 range and maybe Narkle

One pick for Saad, the other pick for the draft or a B grader still considered best 22

Smart trading

 

[tencentpiece]

Clarification more likely to just be us directly with hawks

I try not to listen to these types of websites, but there is something in what TCP has just said.
