No big loss. He may reach the heights of Blake Acres one day if he starts finding the footy, which is unlikely.
 
With Carlton having a real need for points next year, do you think they’ll avoid dealing in futures? Assuming F/S isn’t locked out like there’s rumours of, they might have a top five pick on their hands?
They can make it up when they have their fire sale next year
 
Request so noted, Campbell, we understand your view.

However you need to understand ours, so you and your manager need to convince Carlton to offer a fair value trade.

Otherwise, no decent trade capital offered by Carlton, then we take you with pick 1 in the PSD.

F2 IMO would do the trick.
In all seriousness we have to stop being the nice guys at the trade table and get taken advantage of.
 
If he was offered 200 000 with us a year . 250 000 from Carlton its not really being a traitor unless we matched Carlton which we obviously didnt or it would have been news he wanted to be traded before the Carlton offer news .
I think he got the same offer and was weighing up which one was better for him. Being closer to home plus a terrible last 4 years probably swayed him. Can see his point of view but also think we've done right by him and can stand firm.

Their current 2025 hand is 34, 44 and 62.

Will be bolstered by compo picks for TDK and SOS.

Onus is on them to come up with the capital to get the trade done.


My F2 was as an indicative draft capital value range.
 
Sure you do have a name but I assume it's not your Bigfooty name.

You do you, I just think it's funny that Australians and Americans cry out fascism like any of us have ever experienced it. If you think Musk is a fascist go for your life but I think it makes light of the holocaust and people like the Uyghurs in China.

But this is not the forum for this chat, and I'm not the arbitor of truth and justice. I found it funny, but you're completely entitled to your opinion.
Not like he didn’t chuck up a Nazi salute then a week later speak at a German neo Nazi party rally and tell them it’s time Germans stopped being ashamed of their past……. Mmmmmmmhmmmm



Yep we will just forget all about that….
 
Chesser the key to unlocking the Patrick Cripps to West Coast swan song deal?

Salute? Salutes.

And a sensible chuckle at anyone calling current day twitter a free speech platform.

But back O/T... Piss off Chesser. I've always been really high on Chesser even with his injury issues and was stoked that he was looking good when he got some late games.
 
No tears from me if Chesser goes. Saw him as Jarrod Brander Mark II. Can run, jump, kick, etc, just not a particularly good footballer. My biggest beef with him was that he never looked like he was playing for his career. Not desperate enough, not hard enough, not proactive enough. If he comes good at the Blues good luck to him, but he was always going to be a player who teased with the occasional good moment, but would never string consistent performances together.

If this is Chesser for Hollands... I'm mortified. If it's Chesser for something else. I'm ok with Wilson, Lord or Moir coming the other way. Their first might be good too.
 
The problem is Carlton have a bunch of players much better than Chesser they won't be willing to trade and a bunch of players that are massive spuds that we don't want, and no draft picks of equal value. And I'm unsure of a player that they have of equal value.

So we're going to end up with either a spud, and/or a nothing pick.

Good times.

We could ask for futures. Yeah I was about to say didn't the Carlton president say they have no young talent. I think Carlton are on the downward slope so I think trading for futures would be the go.
 
The thing that I'm most curious about is that both Ryan and Chess seem to be valued quite highly by Mini, so it's a surprising and a little concerning that he hasn't been able to persuade either to stay. I guess with Ryan he is getting a substantially better deal but that doesn't apply to Chess.
