Senior 31. Campbell Chesser

[ferrisb]

Traded for pick 41

Blues add to midfield mix as Eagle returns to Victoria

The Blues have completed a deal for young Eagle Campbell Chesser

www.afl.com.au

22yo, former first round draft pick. 186cm, 85kg.

Has battled injuries. Has some pace and good ball use off the wing and half back. And can hold his own in contested situations too.

Looks like a decent value pick up, with upside that suits our needs.

Not that excited.

Nothing good has ever come out of West Coast to Carlton.

I won't tolerate any Matt Clape slander.

You're deliberately ignoring the superstar we picked up at the end of 2007...

Ahem. There was a trade in 2007 that lead to us getting a certain legend. How dare you disrespect Dennis Armfield.

 

[Mr_Plow]

Injury prone former first round draft pick traded to Carlton, a tale as old as time.

Wish success for Chesser and Blues!

Real talk now. What an absolute gun of a player.

 

[NavySteel]

Go well, Camp!

Reckon this is a gem of a pick up!

 

[The Old Dark Navy's]

Real talk now. What an absolutely fun of a player.

Such a nice guy too. I love the interaction I had with him at a Southport Sharks preseason training. Very humble.

The exciting midfielder has joined the Blues on the fifth day of the 2025 Continental Tyres AFL Trade Period, making the move from West Coast, with the Club giving pick No.41.

If he can keep his body right this kid will be a great cheap pick up

 

[FitzroyBlueBagger]

Welcome Chesser, bargain moneyball pickup on talent, if the ankle problem is past him we have a genuine class player…

Another genuine 1st round pick on talent…. ️

Eagles mate pretty annoyed about this one, reckon he could be an absolute steal.

Excited by this pick, a player with pace who uses it both defensively and offensively and cn kick the footy. Has had one injury that has held him back for longer than it should have but should be all right now. A player I expect to have an immediate impact and resume his AFL development with us. Good get. This shows that after far too long, our recruiters and coaches have finally come around to what we need.

If he stays fit, he's best 22. Could be the sleeper hit of the trade period for us.

 

[Gethelred]

Welcome Campbell.

 

[Faz 2000]

From draft profile:

STRENGTHS:

• Speed
• Kicking
• Class
• Versatility
• Outside run
• Breaking the lines

Sure hope he can get fit and develop into an AFL player who brings this sort of stuff.

Good luck, Chesser.

Love everything about those highlights. Love his attack on the ball and confidence.
Hope he can continue the rich vein of form in the Navy Blue.

Welcome to the Old Dark Side Campbell !
