what does this mean for JKH?

Absolutely nothing

We will need both JKH and Garlett in the side and I cant wait to see them play together

    Garlett carries little coin and more of a risk. Hes being given the heave ho by Mouse. You dont cough up second rounders for that. Hes a bit of interest, not central to any success at Melbourne. Hes a "yeah we'll take him but ....."

    He obviously got the wrong side of Mouse and the Scum want rid of him........ well played there Blue baggers !!!

    We're not giving up a second rounder, we're downgrading our second rounder 5 spots in that scenario.

    Can someone tell me, as we delisted Blease can he in fact still be traded?

    Blease has not yet been delisted. He is out of contract and has requested a trade.

    Thus yes, he can be traded.

    Hasn't been officially delisted yet. We just haven't offered him a new contract so we'll look at trading him.

    If that can't be facilitated, he will be delisted.

    He hasn't been delisted yet as far as I know. He has been kept on the list to fulfill his purpose at the Demons: as a sweetener in a pick 78 for Garlett deal.

    Jay Kennedy-Harris means: The one who will be King, he who has laughed on Neighbours, and whom is not only gifted, but multi-talented. And gifted.

    Just me or is the MFC a sneaky chance of getting in the 8 if everything goes to plan next year?

    Oh don't start that crap already!

    Dee's obviousley looking for pace and players who can break the lines.

    I'm happy with Gartlett and Lumumba as they both have those attributes we lack...

    I'm just hoping we don't trade Picks 2 & 3!

    Brayshaw & McCartin should be lock.

    Sam Frost is the only other player we need to secure for a great trading and draft period.

    Add Billy 'The Kid' Stretch.

    Hands up if your happy with that?

    Dwayne Russell would dig it.

    I don't put Garlett in same cat as Vince.

    I would be gobsmacked if we handed 23 for jeff....or any 2nd rounder actually. Dont need to

    Agreed

    fair enough ..I still would prefer a lower pick...or 4th rounder and a player etc.

    Still ..the club will do what it sees fit. They are much better at this game now thank god :)

    I can actually see JKH being more of a midfielder than a specialist small forward.

    I think he lacks the raw pace that many of the best small forwards have. What he has got though is the ability to make good decisions (especially by hand) in traffic, a really underrated skill of a good midfielder.

    I can see him in more of a 2014 Ben McGlynn role (midfielder who can rotate as a small forward) than a pure small forward.

    I for one am thankful that we got Garlett and not that maggot Robinson

    I have no idea where I read it but I think the club is grooming JKH to BE a middy....building a tank from the fwd work etc.

    Apparently we're trying this new thing in sport......."develop..........something or other " !!! :rolleyes:^_^

    Nah, I reckon we're just going to wing it.

    I think that was our former recruiting strategy...lol

    Would love Garlett at the dees!

    My brother's a blues supporter so I've watched quite a few Carlton games over the years and Garlett was one of my favourite AFL players to watch around 2010 - 2012 when they were around top 8. Has blistering pace and love to tackle, remember some great run-down tackles. Very exciting news!

    I can still see pick 3 being traded for a downgraded round one pick and an established midfielder to be honest.

    Thanks for clarifying guys.

    Im gonna say it - I think Carlton are mad getting rid of Garlett. the Betts/Garlett combo around 2010 to 2012ish was incredible to watch. I watched a lot of Carlton games in that time and I would often think to myself why cant the demons have a player with that burst speed and total goalsmarts in our side.

    Enter a new coach and a perception of attitude problems and he's gonna be ours possibly for almost nothing.

    This is gonna be way bigger than some here realise. He is an under-rated gun - just like HL.

    id be happy with trading Blease, tappscott and Strauss for him all together. If the Blues think that is a good deal im all smiles.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

    • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

      A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

    • CASEY: Frankston

      The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

      Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

    • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

      Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.
