From an article in the Australian today.

http://www.theaustralian.news.com.au/story...43-2722,00.html

"The Power has also sounded out the availability of Melbourne ruckman Mark Jamar. "

I cannot see us letting go of our best ruckman!!

In the same article

"After missing out on a late raid aimed at recruiting Melbourne star Aaron Davey, Fremantle has its sights on out-of-contract Essendon speedster Andrew Lovett.

The Dockers who, along with the Bombers, made a lucrative four-year offer for Davey worth more than $2m this week, were edged out when a lethargic Melbourne eventually returned fire and increased its initial term to four years. "

Note the word lethargic, as both Greg Denham, and Patrick Smith wrote an article about Davey Wednesday AM , which was proved to be wrong only a few hours later! They hate to be proven wrong !!!

CS confirmed on Twitter on Wednesday night that Essendon never made an offer to Davey.

Boak will not be traded. Salopek a few years older might be. As I posted some time ago, I could see Jamar, Bell and maybe a late pick or another player or the pick received for that player to Port for 9 and Salopek. Alternatively Jamar and Bell for 8 or 9.

lol port wouldnt even take pick 11 and jamar for boak... is boak even wanting to go home or is his name constantly chucked up because he is a melbourne boy... fair to say he's basically their best player nearly and one who actaully still performs when they lose... have to move heaven and earth to get him... pick 2 would probably have to be involved.. and i don't want us doing that...

Patrick Smith is a bottom feeder, one of the worst journalists going around, and that's a fair comment because there's some stiff competition out there for that title. I don't believe a word he says, I reckon he loves the sound of his own voice and just makes grand statements to get noticed.

Having said that if the deal was right I'd look at it. My preferance is to keep Jamar but losing him wouldn't be a huge loss.

I would give them 2 & Jamar for Boak and pick 9. They get Trengrove and Jamar and Melbourne get Boak (who is proven) and pick 9 and neither club worries about them wanting to return home.

What about Jamar 2 and 11 for Boak 8 and 9? I'm not sure myself. Just throwing it out there.

We would have to have a good think about it if they offered up pick 9.

This time last year I reckon most people on these boards would have jumped at the chance to get a first rounder for Jamar.

12 months on he has played some good games. But he has also been out injured for most of the year too.

It wouldn't be a straight swap though. We would have to give something else up as well. And no, Bell is not going to cut it, just because he is from S.A.

I love Boak, but there is no chance we would get him so lets forget that.

Mark Jamar :huh: He averages 10 games a season. 1 half decent season (7 games) and people are rating him through the roof. How easy some minds can be swayed with a few persuasive posts. We need to really consider whatever they offer, if they do of course.

Ohh and Bell will not be going anywhere because no club will pick up our scraps for no reason.

Jamar wouldn't demand much and that is the problem, his current trade value is lower than his potential as a valuable player (particularly to Melbourne). Sure I would happy to see him go if Port are prepared to pay over the price (9) but I feel that now is his time, and if he left we would be missing out on the best part of his career.

Agree to an extent. On the other hand Port are in need of a Ruck very badly I would say if they can't get Hamson then his value will go up. Also port have a few players who want to leave and the club wants to move them on, like Salopek. I would take Salopek for Jamar, would you? We might need to swap a late pick to sweeten the deal.

i think to give jamar to port we demand a player rather than a pick

not sure who but some one that is willing to come to victoria, read an article few weeks ago saying that salopek is a required player and is committed to the club, he was having a knee operation.

few players we could look at for a swap;

westhoff

ebert

pettigrew

maybe, boak or salopek :)

    REDEEMING by Meggs

    It was such a balmy spring evening for this mid-week BNCA Pink Lady match at our favourite venue Ikon Park between two teams that had not won a game since round one.   After last week’s insipid bombing, the DeeArmy banner correctly deemanded that our players ‘go in hard, go in strong, go in fighting’, and girl they sure did!   The first quarter goals by Alyssa Bannan and Alyssia Pisano were simply stunning, and it was 4 goals to nil by half-time.   Kudos to Mick Stinear.

    REDEEM by Meggs

    How will Mick Stinear and his dwindling list of fit and available Demons respond to last week’s 65-point capitulation to the Bombers, the team’s biggest loss in history?   As a minimum he will expect genuine effort from all of his players when Melbourne takes on the GWS Giants at Ikon Park this Thursday.  Happily, the ground remains a favourite Melbourne venue of players and spectators alike and will provide an opportunity for the Demons to redeem themselves. Injuries to star play

    EASYBEATS by Meggs

    A beautiful sunny Friday afternoon, with a light breeze and a strong Windy Hill crowd set the scene, inviting one team to seize the day and take the important four points on offer. For the Demons it was not a good Friday, easily beaten by an all-time largest losing margin of 65 points.   Essendon threw themselves into action today, winning most of the contests and had three early goals with Daria Bannister on fire.  In contrast the Demons were dropping marks, hesitant in close and comm

    DEFUSE THE BOMBERS by Meggs

    Last Saturday’s crushing loss to Fremantle, after being three goals ahead at three quarter time, should be motivation enough to bounce back for this very winnable Round 5 clash at Windy Hill. A first-time venue for the Melbourne AFLW team, this should be a familiar suburban, windy, footy environment for the players.   Essendon were brave and competitive last week against ladder leader Adelaide at Sturt’s home ground. A familiar name, Maddison Gay, was the Bombers best player with

    BLOW THE SIREN by Meggs

    Fremantle hosted the Demons on a sunny 20-degree Saturdayafternoon winning the toss and electing to defend in the first quarter against the 3-goal breeze favouring the Parry Street end. There was method here, as this would give the comeback queens, the Dockers, last use of the breeze. The Melbourne Coach had promised an improved performance, and we did start better than previous weeks, winning the ball out of the middle, using the breeze advantage and connecting to the forwards.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out
