    Someone has a sense of humour - the banner ad on the page is for "Out of the Blue, Defining Moments of the Carlton Football Club"

    Should read out of the Blues me thinks!

      Wow. Let the games begin.

      Surely Carlton will now enter the market for Barry Hall.

        We won't be getting the fevwit.

        Mark it in your diaries.
        Wild speculation, unsubstantiated rumours, silly jokes and opposition delight in another's failures is what makes an internet forum fun.

            I am with you Annie. I don't want Fev. And can you imagine Alex uprooting the family and moving to Sydney!!! No way known. Oh dear, its all very sad.

              It's nice to welcome someone to the team, the more threads the better!
              I knew him as a gentle young man, I cannot say for sure the reasons for his decline
              We watched him fade before our very eyes, and years before his time

                I'm stunned!!!
                I was certain they'd slap him on the wrist and all would be forgiven.
                Reading between the lines, I think Judd has had a lot to do with this decision.

                  dunno anyone who is a contender that has the cap room to fit him in.

                  As for us. DO NOT WANT.

                    Oh, man, I just got home and saw that headline on RealFooty. I think the first words out of my mouth were either "oh, dear", "uh-oh", or "oh, no".

                      Thus far it is just panning out as many have predicted it will.

                      They will claim he is available for trade, knowing full well that pretty much no club can afford him under their salary cap and that no-one will pay the trade price they put on his head. So he'll still be a Bloo come 2pm next Friday afternoon. They will claim to have tried and everyone will just get on with their lives.

                      In the meantime, we have 10 days of reading how the Swans really are interested, and that Roos and Ireland are just holding their cards close to their chests in making denials, while deluded Carlton fans debate whether ROK, pick 6, White and Vezspremi in return is really enough or whether the Swans are also obliged to throw Goodsey into the pot.

                          I reckon you will be 100% correct by 2pm next Friday.

                              We'll get him. We like importing exciting forwards, whatever their foibles - in fact, their foibles have been what has made them exciting!

                              Plugger came to us after the piglet and giving Caven an anaesthetic free facial reconstruction, Hally's name was about as muddy as it is these days, and Davo came up with knocks on just about every facet of his being.

                              We loved em all eventually, and will again!
