Bluemour Melting Pot XXXII - Reaching fever pitch! 🔥 🔥 🔥

[Kaladin Stormblessed]

So we going with the Vossy Van or the Voss Vespa?

 

[Accidental genius]

We’ve done well in retaining players. Sps is the only one in a few years I think. Last one I recall is Phillips wanting out.

Dunlop Volleys were standard footwear at Pentridge. As prisoners would have the shoelaces removed from their shoes - for obviously reasons - they would also cut the tongues of the shoes as they moved around, rubbed against the top of the foot and caused blisters. THEN, the improvisation was taken up outside prison and became something of a fashion statement and 'sign' around inner Melbourne (before the hipsters turned up) - And no, I've never worked as a prison guard or administrator.

So, you were either an inmate or you're calling me a criminal hipster douche

More accurate than 90pc of the other posts there

More compelling than your constant sniping at rumours too incidentally. Maybe you should ignore these rumour threads and focus on list management or something?

Barass said Lyon was back in the picture, only 2 days ago

He seems to have changed his tune only a few hours ago

 

[Sam The Doc]

Was his ppt presentation in his luggage?

uh huh we are onto something now.

 

[Blues_1864]

Bye Samo. I'll miss you. I wish for times when CFC turns the strengths a player has, into a team based role.

I will miss your avatar. Maybe he was never going to be a world-beater, but I am still sad about it. No matter what happens at the trade table.

Voss the Boss

AFLCA awarded Luke Power best assistant coach for year 2021, at least we got one right.
We’ll done Luke hope this reflects in greater responsibility within the coaching department.

Serious question, does anyone know how this gets judged?

 

[Stormzy]

Errrr Wut?

Missed quite abit of senior footy this year.

 

[The Old Dark Navy's]

His response to my question got me right in the feels. Was hard to stop the tears for the love and warmth.

Don't get me started ...

 

[Burgers45]

im not sold on scarlet tbh . hes a different cat

I heard he's an introvert and media shy. If so, communication skills may be an issue

 

[Funk]

Richmond BF board keen to get Grigg from Geelong and happy for us to take McQualter

Well they just lost 2 x backup ruckmen...........

I never use the word douche

 

[Poorman53]

Am I the only one that interpreted B70's comments as there may still be more candidates being interviewed?

I then read everyone else's take and thought I must be way off the mark.

I'd be quite content if that was the case and Voss got the job as you'd have Cook in the interviews.

I'm still hoping for Kingsley or Ross but it isn't looking likely atm.

Geebus that exact thing happened to me once, in the days before the interwebs, always had multiple backups in different bags after that.

I could be wrong but he sounded pretty dismissive about the thought of more candidates. I took it as a decision has been made and reading between the lines, Vossy is our new coach

I don't mind letting go some of the softer players on our list, in exchange for classy, dedicated 2 way running, hard nuts.

 

[Magical_EddieBetts]

not Crippa

 

[BrisbaneCFC]

Pretty sure he also said, if not Clarkson , its Voss.

 

[GT619]

Voss is a lock for coach, unless Cook changes things. McQualter was apparently very impressive in his interview.

Whats the likely changes

So do their supporters know more than our supporters, just because their team performs better?

Supporters are the same everywhere ... diminish those that are leaving and build up those that are coming.

 

[zeggie]

When can we realistically expect to land our next coach? I’m thinking it won’t be until at least late next week.

Also, has there been any news on pyke . Hasn’t been mentioned for about a week or so.

No chance before Sunday imho.

 

[JustaBattler]

Anyone who doesn't want to be here -- can leave -- you want dedication -- don't get any benefit posturing after what we put the group through the last 6 months ..

I think you are missing the point of maximising teh value of any assett

Rookie mistake, I reckon.

Unless a deal has already been done - seems so...and if it has been done the wording from Lyod requires remedial english work

He's uncontracted.

If we don't deal, he heads to the draft, we burn relationships and we end up with nothing anyway. Welcome to the modern game.

I'm sick and tired of reading every year hwo Carlton's prime responmsibility is not to 'burn' relationships- time to gerow up - nothing 'modern' about having a clue mate

Not sure if it is right but I read today that because SPS has not been offered a contract he can make himself a free agent.

so why wasnt he offered a contract he can't accept - SOP.

Think you're with the majority. I may have had a case of seeing what you want to see.
