List Mgmt. Welcome Campbell Chesser (Pick 14, 2021 National Draft)

1 rat with flees infects all other clean rats re: hollands

 

[lusheslewis]

For those suggesting "walk him to the PSD" that's not what that means.

He would just nominate for the National Draft and Carlton could very likely take him with pick 44.

Also very unlikely any other club would take him tbh

Hes not that good

 

[Woutizmoo]

What do you think Nick Gieschen (manager of Chesser and Harley) would think of that?

This x1000
Its not about pissing off other clubs, its about pissing off the over inflated ego player managers to the point where they stop doing business with certain clubs, e.g. us

We could take him with pick 1. He then goes onto the list with another 2 yr contract at rookie wages.

A lot of their points will get wiped out when matching Dean.

Walking him to the draft ain’t going to happen.

Essendon would

 

[Broken_Chairs]

Hollands with a bunch of strict controls?

Pretty cooked idea tbh. The Blues knew his history, everyone did and still they tried and failed to keep him on the straight and narrow playing alongside his younger brother.

Doubt any big club has a chance with him. Needs to be a minnow club in the middle of nowhere like Fold Coast or GWS.

Giants have form with Jesse kick flipping his car and Stringer being a legitimate rock spider

All G. Can-do Duncan will come over & give us Geelong's IP for managing players with behavioural issues.

(It's probably just letting em' cut loose at secret bush doofs & kickbacks for local media to keep things quiet)

 

[Happy Mastenator]

I'm still not over Chesser wanting to leave.

Have been a staunch believer in what he can offer.

 

[tigger_ferret]

Chesser has been on our list for 4 years.
We have had the worst 4 years in club history.



Watch us rocket back up the ladder now he has decided to heck off

 

[FKASC]

Must say, given the whispers pre draft around Hewetts ‘antics’, I’m thinking a Hollands type could well send him off the rails a bit. Just think he’s too big of a distraction for our young crew, but you take a Hollands over Chesser on ability every day of the week.

Not to mention Ginbey - he’ll be urinating all over Northbridge!

 

[squashface]

Ok I'm annoyed again after reading the article on the AFL website about him leaving mostly from this line:

"The Eagles invested heavily in Chesser and extended his initial contract by two years halfway through 2022 when he was recovering from a serious ankle injury that wiped out his debut season."

 

[Happy Mastenator]

The most frustrating thing is that he showed enough in the last four games to get a decent deal eslehwere, but not enough for us to demand decent compesnatoin.

If he'd played for us next year and continued on, we could have legitimately asked for a late first. So frustrating.

 

[eagles rule]

Chesser could use some good luck with his injury history so I don’t mind him trying to get his career together at another club ..

 

[Dark Sharks]

Ever since the drive across the nullabor story there's been some serious fangirl love for Chesser on this board, like he can do no wrong.

Looking forward to that finally being over at least.

He's a grub of Rioli proportions. Milked the club dry throughout his injuries as he added nothing, then ended up inevitably being a dud selection and a turncoat to boot when we desperately needed that draft pick to stick.

 

[squashface]

 

[Ambrose Burnside]

For the draft watchers, were those last 4 games up there with the U10 form that saw the pie man swoop in the first round?

We will 100% be on our last pick prior to then. So the decision will be redraft Chesser, take someone else in a shallow draft or hold a spot for SSP.

Carlton will/should know this also. We need to stand firm publicly/privately and ask for fair compo that actually suits our needs (I.e. not 44 or F2/F3 that don’t improve us now).

If we lose Chesser for nothing so be it

We would have to threaten to use the Hawk's second on him, we would lose that plus whatever they offer us. If I was Carlton I would say go for it, they don't lose anything.

I'd take TDK compo for Hawks first plus our future second. Or ideally a bunch of priority end of first rounders

They won't do that though as they need that TDK compo to try get ahead of a a Dean bid.

Would be happy to get the Port pick from GC first though, then threaten the Blues to bid on Dean with that if they don't hand over the TDK compo (with picks coming back from us).

Why the aversion to a F2 from Carlton?

Next year is meant to be a stronger and less compromised draft. We picked up Shanahan for a later pick than what this pick is projected to be.

Fair enough a second rounder this year would be crap - but a F2 from a poor team in a strong draft is a good return for a player who has shown very little to warrant the reaction to him leaving.

*Edit I understand the arguments that Carlton won't want to give up future picks but that's their problem. If they want Chesser now they can figure out a way to trade back into the draft next year.

F*ck mate he's gone from "he's a failure I don't care if he gets delisted" to taking a massive steamer in your cereal.

Not sure about comparing him to Rioli however, might be a bit of a stretch. His actions are disappointing no doubt but surprised to see you this worked up when you could've left him by the side of the road in a hessian sack 6 weeks ago.

 

[Chris_6678]

IF they want Chesser then Walsh + a future 3rd is what i would be asking for a minimum.

 

[Mop]

The more I think about it the dirtier I get about the Chesser move but the facts haven’t changed, there’s every chance this was lined up some time ago when he was expected to be delisted.

My hope is we up our offer and it talks him down and he stays. It’ll be better than any pick we get for him. His realistic that is I’m not sure

Would bite Carltons hand off for an F2 for Chesser
