Apparently being put up for trade by the saints according to Sam McClure. 201cm tall solid defender who can also play forward as shown by his 8 goal performance years ago when he was playing for the dons.

Has connections with Simon Goodwin and I wouldn't say no to potentially looking at Carlisle as a forward option but also swing back if May’s body lets him down.

 

Wonder why the Saints would want to trade him after going to the trouble of getting him from Essendon.

Can't say I'd be all that keen.

Saints paid a high price to get him over in the first place.  That, coupled with the fact that they're rumoured to be into Hill, suggests they might be looking for some top picks.  We paid a top five pick for May, so Saints may think there's some currency for a 200cm KPD/KPF.

Doubt he would be coming cheap.

Really struggles below his knees probably due to his injuries, can't imagine him applying any type of pressure as a forward so not what we need. Can do some good things but we have other more pressing needs.

Trying to clear some cap space is the word. There going to be paying Hill a heap, plus they've got hannebury on big coin last year, then re-signed billings and gresh. Might be a cheap trade to clear him off their books. Not really a need of ours though


If they pay part of his salary and he's happy to play forward i'd look at it. 202 cm he could be a very handy forward/ruck back up for Gawn 

 

 

 

Yeah he doesn't really get the juices flowing anymore.  Injuries seem to have slowed him down a bit and the Saints would probably demand a high price because of that. 

Unless they're willing to sell low then I doubt they'll get much interest.


The club is going to have to have a pre-season camp in Colombia, If we're adding Jack Watts, Harley Bennell and Jake Carlisle in the off-season.

Had the "pleasure" of being in the same bar as this [censored] during the offseason. Just what everyone loves... a drunk and substance affected footballer crashing everyones tables talking nonsense, harassing every woman, being aggressive to every guy with any of those women and asking staff and security "don't you know who I am?"

Deadset [censored].

 

 


He's 198cm. He hasn't looked interested at the Saints since part way through his first season with them.

Big no from me. We don't need anymore KPDs.

A culture killing, always injured, key defender... Just what we need... ?‍♂️

Yes we already have May to tick those boxes.

Makes me look at Oscar McDonald fondly. Carlisle is a real knuckle head.


IIRC part of the terms of going to the Aints was that they wouldn't play him forward - because he hated it at Essendon. I wouldn't expect anything to have changed. Also sounds like a tool with back issues.

While I'm not at all advocating getting him, if Frost was traded (only bringing that up because he hasn't signed yet and there's been no talk of it) Carlisle could be a cheap trade option. I've read that he's trigger with the saints was for 1 year on $600k, so they might be looking to move him for salary cap space (given they are chasing everyone under the sun). 

If we could getting him for a future 3rd or 4th, and get a 2nd for Frost (or have him part of a bigger deal), then stretch out Carlisle's deal over 2 seasons (maybe increase this to $350k per year), which isn't huge money then I reckon it might work. He's had a back injury but played the last 10 games straight so clearly it's manageable. he has also played a lot of games with Hibberd and Melksham who both came with somewhat of a party boy image but haven't put a foot wrong for us.

  • REPORT: Richmond

    The fans who turned up to the MCG for Melbourne’s Anzac Day Eve clash against Richmond would have been disappointed if they turned up to see a great spectacle. As much as this was a night for the 71,635 in attendance to commemorate heroes of the nation’s past wars, it was also a time for the Melbourne Football Club to consolidate upon its first win after a horrific start to the 2025 season. On this basis, despite the fact that it was an uninspiring and dour struggle for most of its 100 minutes, the night will be one for the fans to remember. They certainly got value out of the pre match activity honouring those who fought for their country. The MCG and the lights of the city as backdrop was made for nights such as these and, in my view, we received a more inspirational ceremony of Anzac culture than others both here and elsewhere around the country.

  • CASEY: Richmond

    The match up of teams competing in our great Aussie game at its second highest level is a rarity for a work day Thursday morning but the blustery conditions that met the players at a windswept Casey Fields was something far more commonplace.They turned the opening stanza between the Casey Demons and a somewhat depleted Richmond VFL into a mess of fumbling unforced errors, spilt marks and wasted opportunities for both sides but they did set up a significant win for the home team which is exactly what transpired on this Anzac Day round opener. Casey opened up strong against the breeze with the first goal to Aidan Johnson, the Tigers quickly responded and the game degenerated into a defensive slog and the teams were level when the first siren sounded.

  • POSTGAME: Richmond

    After five consecutive defeats, the Demons have now notched up back-to-back victories, comfortably accounting for the Tigers in the traditional ANZAC Eve clash. They surged to a commanding 44-point lead early in the final quarter before easing off the pedal, resting skipper Max Gawn and conceding the last four goals of the game to close out a solid 20-point win.
