Who thought Carlton was bluffing?

[The Falcon Strike]

Come clean - cleanse your soul!

I'll admit - I thought it was just a ruse - but there you go!

 

[clobba]

I thought it was pure deflection

 

[Lance Uppercut]

I thought they were serious the whole time.

But then, I never bought this whole "Fev waz just bein drunk, he dun nuffink wrong" bullshit.

When it comes out what actually happened behind the scenes, Carlton fans will be pretty pleased he's gone

 

[Coin_Toss]

Who cares...Carlton are fools.

 

[bombermick]

I thought they were doing it in order to give him the mother of all wake-up calls. I thought they would only agree to a trade if they got an offer they couldn't refuse.

 

[DapperDon]

When they first announced it I did, then by Tuesday I was sure they had to trade him as some stories started to come out. (not saying they are all true though)

 

[rfctigerarmy]

I thought they were bluffing. I thought for certain Fev would stay at the Blues...

Well done on them getting rid of him though. They get just that little bit of respect back.

 

[Dont be a lemon]

I thought they were huffing and puffing and didn't really want to trade him, but alas here we are.

 

[kimbopen]

Not me. Thought that if they couldn't trade him, they'd reluctantly keep him.

 

[shoe]

I thought that they were inactively bluffing by being convinced that no one would want to trade for him.

Bluff well and truly called.

 

[fairdinkum]

I thought they were bluffing.

 

[St 07]

I definitely thought they were bluffing.

 

[Durham Hawks]

pre-trade week: bluff
monday-tuesday: can't believe the media has bought this story and run with it
wednesday: ok maybe they're going to trade him
thursday: bradshaw and rischitelli toured visy park? ok then it's definitely on
friday: no surprise whatsoever

 

[Hollow Knight]

Me.

 

[Histrionics]

I thought they were doing it in order to give him the mother of all wake-up calls. I thought they would only agree to a trade if they got an offer they couldn't refuse.

I thought the exact same thing.

He really must have ****ed up.

 

[Klem]

Yep thought they were posturing and I now have a tad (not much as they are still scum) more respect for them.


And the best thing is they didnt get Bradshaw yaaaaaay!


Lost their best (and only real) forward and got stuff all in return.

Lifes good again

Kinda in this camp myself.

When he was mentioned as trade bait a couple of years ago I thought that was bullshit, but given the limited reports of this years antics AND the fact that Judd was annoyed somehow I took it as very real.

Rumours will fly about Twiggers, and they may or may not be true but something, to someone must surely have happened to seal Fev's departure.

VALE Fev.

 

[jakson68]

i certainly did but good on them

 

[Chodders]

I kind of hoped they were bluffing but deep down I knew they were serious.

Now I am thinking that even if a 10th of the things that have been suggested as happening on BL night actually did happen, I am glad he is gone.

Will still miss him though

 

[adii_7]

i did till mark murphy told me fevola punched him.

 

[mINORITY]

Sigh - I thought they were bluffing

 

[Borgsta]

I thought they were bluffing. Wanted to put money on him being at Carlton next year but couldn't find anything!

 

[Majinbuu]

Yep, I thought they were bluffing

 

[Brown Bottle]

When they first announced it I did, then by Tuesday I was sure they had to trade him as some stories started to come out. (not saying they are all true though)

This.

 

[bourbons]

Yep, I thought bluff right up until the Bradshaw-Risca deal was floated

When it comes out what actually happened behind the scenes, Carlton fans will be pretty pleased he's gone

It must come out, all of it. Blues fans deserve to know the details of why we were forced to trade a 2 time Coleman medallist for pick 12 in a weak draft and a 15 game player

Me.

When does the Marc Murphy avatar kick in BrownDog?
