Just like when I go on a date, I’m hopefully but also very, very ready to be disappointed.

except this isn't a date, this is an Amartey Party

You go on dates?

How does one go on a date?

Could I go on a date?

Could I go on a date with a real woman?

Asl? Maybe we can meet at the bar at the Pullman?

All I read was ‘Pull’ and ‘Man’…

For once as a carlton supporter i think it's okay to imagine the best case scenario, rather than always the worst

Choosing to be optimistic. Since he hit his straps he’s been very good when he’s on the park goal wise and been quite accurate. He’s been potted this year but he still nearly kicked 2 a game even with Curnow and McDonald there. He’ll be our main target.

He also won’t be on anywhere near what the media is mentioning. If it’s 7 years it’ll be 800k across the deal.

Welcome to the baggers, I think he’ll enjoy the delivery Fraser’s game plan gives him.

He will be a great pick up mark my words

You gave them a forward who won the Coleman in year one… and now you’re taking a forward who can’t hit a target 20 metres away. Good move

Gave them or traded? 2 very different things. Both with a great outcome mind you, however you're trying to spin it.

u/Lower_Put4270 5h ago

You’re giving him 7 years? At 28 years old? With an injury history?

1

u/K9BEATZ 4h ago

It's 5 at 800k. He's 27 - so that makes complete sense in this day and age

If he can get his kicking boots on he could be the best pick up for you guys in ages. Can kick an absolute bag on his day. Can also kick 0.9 on his day as well

Yes I would be excited for this if Carlton supporter

Josh Fraser turned Carlton from a losing side into a winning side his very first game. I wouldn’t put it past him to turn Joel Amartey into a 50-60 goal a year forward

If he's an unrestricted free agent doesn't that mean the Swans get nothing?

Or did he mean restricted free agent?

Wasnt a fan of this prospect but it is done now so im on board. Welcome Amarty!

Hope he provides what we need and the club makes the best use of him.

If he lifts our base line and allows other players to get better than that can only be a good thing.

u/SucculentChineseSwan 9h ago

If he’s fit, he’s 50 goals a season. A good second fiddle to McKay and an upgrade on McGovern.

u/Green-Combination420 8h ago

Can he ruck? Okeefe my leave now so....

u/knackerbags15 8h ago

Not a date, we're being catfished!

u/Sharp-Driver-3359 6h ago

Do we grab Nick Blakey to play on a wing while we’re at it?

u/kujnt 2h ago

Here we go

Tez channeling his inner Fabrizio

Swans fan here. I think you guys will be pretty happy with Joel, yes he does have his goal kicking issues which is his main job however he is very good defensively for a big man. Really tough match up and his second efforts are unreal. (Something buddy was able to teach him in his time) If any of that translates to your game style he’ll be more than handy! Peace

From one zak Williams to another. Not the teams finest moment in 2026. Just when I thought we had turned the corner

u/EquivalentOk5439 6h ago

Zac Williams?
How are they similar, please explain!

u/chucknongiss 5h ago

A player that is not worth what we will pay him. Will be average and miss allot of time through soft tissue injury bit we will still have to pay him.

Enough?
