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.

Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
