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...

Pretty sure thylacine60 will be the judge if this thread is dead or not!

 

[FitzroyBlueBagger]

It is going, from next year
There's also a maximum deficit that can be carried fwd

Sorry SB read it wrong, so it is definitely going, that’s great news...

Yeah, he kicks a few a couple of times a year, can run fast and has had injuries.

But he kicks less goals than Troy Menzel

How he has lasted 11 seasons at some good sides is one of life's great mysteries.

 

[BringBackSimmo]

So * likely to miss out on Caldwell, now that Cameron is leaving GWS? I guess at least that's one positive.

 

[FitzroyBlueBagger]

But is he in front of Doc & Saad?

Something like this...

Saad Jones Plowman
Docherty Weitering Clark
Walsh Williams Williamson

Watched him have a massive impact on a game recently with much of what he done not recorded in the stats column though....

He has 2 shocking GF's so will be feeling the pressure this saturday to have a big one.

you're right but he'll probably kick 5 goals now and win the Norm Smith!

we could do worse than recruit him, just feels like a hybrid of the 3 players you mentioned would fix the gaping hole in the list when they left.

 

[Blueballs38]

SOS led the way in not overbidding. Carlton don't have 3 picks in this draft to trade for players if SoS had bent over on Martin and Papley

Very true .... I would like to think SOS was a tough but fair negotiator he put a price on an asset that he believed was fair and did not budge. Only time it came “unstuck” was with Gibbs first time around .... we got an extra year out of him (arguably his best) and then got the same deal the next year and with Martin and GC who everyone knew were being u reasonable and so we ended up getting him free!

both great outcomes for the club without looking Dodoish

Yep. His last quarter saved him on the weekend. Otherwise he was a candidate to be sitting in the stands for the GF.

 

[RAPPA]

For?







45 then 81?

To push to have him included in any package that sees pick 7 go to the cats. I see it as very unlikely that they part ways with him, let alone in a package deal

 

[raymagoo]

Watched him have a massive impact on a game recently with much of what he done not recorded in the stats column though....

He’s very handy a low possession player

 

[swuzzlebubble]

Hasn’t there been talk about a review of the whole system? There needs to be some adjustments made the whole thing is way too compromised and unfair...

I'd start with no matching allowed in the first round.

 

[BringBackSimmo]

To push to have him included in any package that sees pick 7 go to the cats. I see it as very unlikely that they part ways with him, let alone in a package deal

Isn't GWS interested in Parfitt as part of the Cameron deal? Though that may be mere speculation.

 

[RAPPA]

Cameron will benefit from having Hawkins around. This will be the first time he plays with a gun, experienced, hard working power forward. At GWS he was the focal point, but at the Cats it’ll still be Hawkins setting the benchmarks for him to meet.

 

[BringBackSimmo]

Should GWS be concerned about their ability to keep Key Forwards? All started with Josh Bruce

[TheBlueCampaigner]

Your wig has blown off, Arse.

You’re not too far off the mark BW! Lol.

 

[SkyhorseTamer]

And so the rich get richer, and the poor get poorer....

GWS aren't poor though. They've still probably got a top 3 team on just talent alone. Pity their coach sucks and they can't play consistently as a team.

 

[esoteric]

I'd start with no matching allowed in the first round.

I'd start with building in a club loyalty incentive. For example, for every year of service for a player, an additional 5% of that player's salary is exempt from the cap. After 10 years = 50% exempt, so the player's own club can pay him massive overs to keep him if they wish, but it's still the player's choice to leave. Then let any player out of contract move to a different club if they wish i.e. anyone OOC is a free agent. Anything is tradeable, picks, players, coaches, PSD picks. No FA compo. There, fixed.

 

[katmanblue]

Because of Jeremy Comeran and cap space?

Don't think tomahawk likes him.

He’s very handy a low possession player

Agreed. Very much cream on top player. Couldn't see him surviving in a mid table or below team. Ideal for a team near the top.
