Cupido Cupido, where for art thou Cupido?

Postby Dissident » Thu Nov 30, 2006 8:18 am

A friend of mine, well, lets call him an aquaintence, spied D. Cupido training with West Adelaide.

Apparently he has South's permission, too....

Ok, so the Shakespeare is wrong, technically.

'Why are you Cupido' works for me.

Be a shame as I thought Westies were back on track with the sort of recruits they'd got so far this year.
Luckily if its true I have an "insider" in the BBQ stand at Westies who can put some food to the side for me before Cupido gets there. ;)
Also ties in nicely with BRPBPRbPBPRPBPBs comment about Port not doing much more recruiting since Cupido first was alligned with them in the rumours.
That'll be half of Westie's 137k profit almost gone in one fell swoop though.

Good profit news for the Bloods.

I doubt that Cupido would cost much for whoever he signs with.

roflmao@redandblack.

Good one!

Cupido signed with port ages ago.
Never give a sucker an even break

Nor ban a user for an acceptable topic of discussion.

"Baby on board". Why dont you put a sign on ur car saying "adult on board" or "car stereo in use"?

By the sounds of things Port pulled out because of the price as they wouldn't have had much room under the cap after recruiting Hargs especially with the prices that were floated around for Cupido.

You can ROFLMAO as much as you like, I didn't say he would play for the love of the game, I said he wouldn't cost much for whoever he signs with.

Read between the lines, given his recent history.

Excellent profit, given two spoons in a row.

I said publicly several weeks ago, Cupido is a talent and if managed correctly would be a very valuable asset.

If the "rumours" are true, any flak from opposition supporters would be out of envy. But bet no one will admit it.

Come on mate, you and I both well know he wouldn't be sticking around in SA especially looking at his recent history for anything less than top dollar.
I have no doubt he'll be on something very similar to what South paid him especially looking at the figures Port were throwing at him.

Im assuming this rumour is correct with your defensive mode r&b??:D

And what makes you think the Weed would be any better than Pyes. I'd say he'll do what he wants at Westies and go down hill quicker. Couple that with the fact he only played well when we were quilting sides which West won't, I can't see it working. Give Snowy Rowsell a run!!

First thought would tend to agree with you Wedgie, however if South offered the most last season and he's out of the running there and Port have come in with a successful bud only to have a change of heart, surely his price is decreasing with his options?

I wouldn't have thought he'd be able to get the same $$ he was on at South across the border(s) anywhere, so perhaps now his price tag would be significantly reduced??

Try and think of the dicipline expected by Wash and Brodie alone. There is the difference.

You've always been a wise poster, CP.

On top of that, there may be other factors to be taken into account.

Why would I be defensive, Wedgie? I'd be rapt to pick up a 55 goal a year player cheaply, if we do.

Robert Pyman has taken our underperforming club into the finals for the first time since 92 including a finals win. If that isn't someone with their finger on the pulse on how to manage players and a football side I don't know what is. He is one of our few losses, everyone else is more than happy. Cupido needs to manage Cupido, something he's failed at with his last three clubs.

"Brodie" and "discipline" are two words not have appeared in the same sentence in the past
