Senior 14. Ollie Florent

[BrisbaneCFC]

Didn't deserve any of the vitriol...

Will be a good player for us

None of it. It was ludicrous

Adding him and Chesser to improving Wilson Hollands Carroll adds to our desperate need for more run off HB/Wing

to IKON Park after completing a trade with Sydney today.

The Blues acquired the exciting and speedy half-back in exchange for a 2026 third-round selection on the final day of the 2025 Continental Tyres AFL Trade Period.

Bang on Soap. Now for some KP…..soon.

 

[Jatz]

Well he can definitely do one of those things.

Please tell me it's kick...

 

[Gw2_James]

Well he can definitely do one of those things.

Was this a good deal for Carlton? Be honest...

Swan moves to Blues, not part of Curnow deal - https://www.afl.com.au/news/1442150


Welcome to Carlton, Ollie!

I think he'll do well for you guys. Best wishes!

 

[drewdimes]

This guy has character, that I know for sure. Moving away from home after losing your dad at such a young age and cementing a place in a strong Swans side (this past season an aberration under a new coach) speaks to that.

A good addition in the cultural aspect IMO.

Oliver Florent, doing it for Dad

Draft prospect Oliver Florent lost his father eight weeks ago. Everything he has done since has been for him.

[Blue since 72]

If he gets close to his highlights package he is exactly what we need off half back.

Has pace, reads the ball in the air well, field kicking spot on and the added bonus of knowing exactly where the goals are.

 

[ctwenty1]

Welcome Ollie!!

 

[Big Red is back]

Seems a good deal for us.

 

[TrueQldBlue]

Really happy with this pick up on a stand alone deal....
He has skills that will compliment us !!!!

 

[GoBlues!]

Great addition. Good player

Wright doing exactly what he said he would. Improving our depth and more 22-28 year old ready to go players

Soap, any idea what the impact is on our salary cap. Are swans paying % of salary?

Welcome to Carlton Ollie.
For your sake, please don't scroll back on the rumours threads...

 

[Healer]

Welcome Ollie, you have heaps of good stuff that we need.
Mighty fine trade.

[HyphensBack]

Can he play Full Forward?

 

[HyphensBack]

I do like this addition though, wonder what the impact will be on Saad and OH?

 

[RUNVS]

Was this a good deal for Carlton? Be honest...

I don't think it is a bad deal. Florent is not a world beater, but he can inject some run and carry that would be very valueable to teams with not a lot of that. Do not rely on his kicking but he is good at creating drive and a bit of attack.

[le dominateur]

Will instantly be our quickest player. Good pick up.

 

[Faz 2000]

Good shopping. Pay a little less in draft capital, pick up a somewhat-overs salary, but ultimately get a pretty good footballer who very much fills a list need.
