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...

I would prefer to get someone through the door this year (Oliver or Wines), than wait for the possibility that Kelly or Merrett nominates us next year. We are on a good run this year with Williams and Saad wanting to come here that we can’t expect everyone who is OOC will want to come here.

Damn tootin' ! Always jump on the opportunity while it's there, you never know what will happen next year.

to Geelong thing.

And if it was right you know that the whole thing is a sham... Knowing it weeks out.

 

[Gethelred]

Would absolutely love Rayner.

A marking medium forward?

If he had more midfield/ballwinning chops, I'd be interested, but to this point he's a version of Billings that doesn't get as much ground ball as he should for his size.

 

[BlueTongue]

I keep thinking Dunkley would be mad not to explore a full mid role elsewhere.

Hypothetically if we were after him what type of deal would get it done.

Dunkley is a bonifide gun. Would do a deal in a heartbeat.

 

[HereComesJuddy]

So you’re saying you are a ITK now?

No way. But my boss use to play for the cats. He got the mail a couple of weeks ago and let me know

in deep conversation at an inner Melbourne public park today... couldn't read much into the body language but given the circulating rumours I thought it was worth posting.

I’d get it if the meeting was last week but you’re allowed to have people over to your house now, why wouldn’t they have met at Oliver or Goodwin’s house?

[Arr0w]

Do you consider Grimes a key position defender?

At a pinch, which he has shown when Balta or Astbury haven't been in the side. Grimes has a better mix of Speed/leap/aggression than any of our 3rd talls.

Thanks for that insightful contribution to the discussion.

Given you've failed to offer anything substantial to the contrary, I'll continue to hold the opinion that Weitering, Jones, Plowman, Marchbank, Casboult, Macreadie, McGovern and JSOS would all be capable of playing on various tall and medium forwards.

No argument from me that Weiters and Jones do it best...that's why they're starting in the 22. But if one of them was injured, we have enough options to field a backline capable of holding its own against most forward lines. In the same way that Richmond losing Rance for an extended period discovered that they had players pencilled into other roles who were actually capable of more.

Do you really need me to outline why, outside Jones, Weitering and Levi, our 3rd tall defender options would struggle to playing on the taller KPF's of the competition?

 

[ferrisb]

I think Port have withdrawn from the race for Crouch.

I wouldn't call anything involving Adelaide midfielders a 'race'.

Perhaps Port have withdrawn from the meander for Crouch?

 

[Gethelred]

He could be the 3rd tall that plays 80% forward/20% midfield.

Allows Cripps to rest forward for 20% of the game.

Except I've seen nothing from him that makes me think he's any real midfield chops. Yet another triumph of manner over substance.

 

[teddy-hopkins]

Cameron to cats.... What does this mean For Crouch? Surely the cats can't fit them both in their cap?

Does Crouch head to Port? Direct replacement for Wines?

 

[RoyalParade]

You still can't have any visitors to your house..

 

[ferrisb]

Can you please red card anyone who refers to anyone other than Alex Jesaulenko as Jezza?

My * supporting buddy has a footy-mad son called Jeremy. I deliberately call him Jezza at every opportunity. It drives my buddy crazy. It's awesome.

 

[The Return of the Paf]

was he wearing a cap?

No, he was wearing a stick of celery.

Crouch stays at the Crows. No takers.

At least

It's a spy thing. Everyone knows that clandestine meetings are held at pre-arranged park benches.

 

[Dadda Dave]

That's what I find strange, they are hard to find, so Geelong have decided they need two? Is Hawkins and Cameron in the same forward line, even going to work?

Hope not .

 

[Doro]

The Giants might end up with 2 of the Geelong picks. We might have to try and split pick 7 with them. I don't think any other teams with a pick before us will be looking to trade down.

If you can get the kid from the dark side I’ll allow it.
