Chesser

Campbell Chesser was traded to the Blues duirng the 2025 trade period. The exciting midfielder has joined the Blues on the fifth day of the 2025 Continental Tyres AFL Trade Period, making the move from West Coast, with the Club giving pick No.41. Originally hailing from Albury, Chesser was recruited to the Eagles with pick No.14 in the 2021 AFL draft. The 22-year-old enjoyed a strong end to the 2025 season, averaging just shy of 17 disposals in the final month of the season while impressing with his ball use. A talented prospect, Chesser has found himself at home on the wing, showcasing his impressive speed and skill across his 36 games for the Eagles. Carlton Head of List Management Nick Austin said the Club is excited to add some pace and agility to the midfield group. “We are so pleased to have attracted Campbell to IKON Park,” Austin said. “The Club is very optimistic about the future of Campbell at Carlton. Overcoming an ankle injury late in the year, the form he displayed at the end of the season showed us he has the quality and class to perform at the elite level. “With explosive speed and endurance, his outside run is a clear standout in his game, with the ability to quickly transition to both ends of the ground – all traits that will perfectly complement our side. “We think he will have a lot to learn from our established midfield group, led by our leaders Patrick Cripps and Sam Walsh, and we look forward to seeing them take Campbell under their wing and he gets to work from day one of pre-season.”
