Came 17th in their B&F from 15 games.  Clearly the coaches are not rating his contribution. 

Did I read that he's had one top 10 finish in his career?

He's so talented, but gee there are red flags. 

Think it's one top 5 finish.

Pretty sure he regularly finishes around 7th/8th.

I think you're right, but from my quick research I don't think he's had a top 5 B&F finish.  He's had a 7th and a couple of 8ths, but I couldn't find a top 5.

Well at least we're both partially wrong. :)

With Hartlett due to talk to Victorian clubs this week should we be seriously considering talking to him?

If we could/be willing to absorb his lengthy high priced contract would a second round pick (either this year or next) ANB and a swap of latter picks be in the ball park?

We should certainly be talking to him.  And if we deem he's the right fit and he nominates us then we should ensure we get him.

Reckon if we do take him we'll need to part with next years 1st Rounder to get HH and something else back.  Port want picks this year, so any deal would have to be something like our 2017 1st Rounder to GWS for Pick 15 & 51 (for example) and we then on trade Pick 15 for HH.

Hartlett for Motlop is my tip

cats might have to chuck in a draft pick or mitch clark to get it done  :)

On big coin for a long time. Port may find it hard to move him.

I'm sure clubs would be happy to assist if Port took on a piece of his salary.

It becomes similar to the Cloke trade. Being on big coin reduces his trade value. If Port are committed to moving him, they won't be getting a 1st rounder for him.

Wow, this rumoured 700-800k salary has me stumped. Whoever his agent is can stay away from representing any of our players.......

AFL Trade Whisperer ‏@AFLTradeWhisper  2h2 hours ago#whispers an initial meeting between Hartlett and ESS did not go well. I'm told HH was "extremely" late to the meeting and seemed "bored

Warning Attitude problem! If he cant show the courtesy to at least pretent to be interested (no matter which club he is having a 'chat' to)......... Not the type of player you want around our up n coming young players. Maybe one of the many reasons Port Has chosen shop him around!

Or maybe he just wasn't interested in Ess or Worsfold. 

Maybe he also went to a Freo interview and fell asleep listening to Ross?

I (now) trust our recruiters to do due diligence and pick players who are committed to the cause.

Agree for the past couple of years our FD has been some of the best preformed. Really great job by Taylor, Mahoney, Viney and co.

I don't think Hartlett will be at the Dees in 2017 personally 

 

Can see the tigs picking him up

LOL, what a load of garbage.

Rob Kerr (Essendon) just mentioned that the club hasn't even met him yet.

Take him in a heart beat.

Would be a great fit for out squad and would flourish in a young energetic side with Goodwin at the helm.

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo. The play start time was brought forward from the initial 11am bounce, due to the high temperatures forecast.  The match sim will consist of four 25-minute qu
