I'd be tempted if they offered Westhoff and pick 9 for Jamar and 18. Don't think it'll happen though. So I say keep Jamar.

The Hoff has gone bad he's no good don't want at all.

Reckon Port will make a play for Seaby or Jamie Charman

There's also whispers their interested in Hampson from CFC

Be a way for CFC to get back into the first rd of the draft.

Burgoyne will go to hawks for 9 and 9 will go to carlton for Hampson.

Jamar is a required player. Nuff said

Who says ?

Oh, you. Sorry, Nuff.

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.

I agree

Jamar is a required player. Nuff said

see above...he only played 7 games this year...that doesn't qualify as a required player...i agree the boy has potential but....if a good deal comes along...i say melb grab it!

jamar has been at the club long enough...i know he's played second fiddle to Jeff White...but if melb doesn't trade him...jamar needs to play 18+ resonable games...otherwise he's gone...injury or no injury

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.

No sorry i think 1 and 2 are off limits we are still a few years away from a GF so lets build a young side instead of bringing in other players from other clubs we are in the same situation as Geelong 6 or so years ago except they didn't bottom out as such but had some pretty handy father and son picks thats just my opinion..

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

you cant be serious

I'd be extremely disappointed to see Jamar go and it would hurt us badly for the next year or two, unless we could replace him with a ready made ruckman. PJ is just barely a second ruck and neither Meesen or Spencer are anywhere near taking over as first ruck.

If Jamar plays 18+ games next year he'll be rated in the 5 best ruckmen in the league. Big call I know but I'm a believer, have been for a while. I don't rate him on the back of 7 games this year, he was tearing VFL games apart years ago. Daniher never gave him a chance to develop and he didn't emerge from Whites shadow until the second half of last year. His confidence has come a long way in 10-15 games as No1 ruck.

I'd prefer to keep him but if he wants to go, as the rumour from a few weeks back suggested, I'd expect no less than pick 9.

All those that want Jamar gone have obviously not seen our other ruckmen. Who would they suggest we open up with at the first bounce next year?

Depends how desperate they are to get a ruckman

That's right. We do hold all the cards here. If Port want our ruckmen they must deal so that we end up in the positive. Or else go away.

Simple. We must play real hard Ball this year.

We are now reaping the Benefits of the 2009 season & all the other clubs know it.

I think Jamar is theyre 2nd option which is in a way good for us but also means that they dont realy rate him.Just heard that at this stage it looks like Burgoyne to Hawks for pick 9,which Port will then give to Carlton for Hampson,gettint the ruck they require.That way we still keep Jamar

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

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

Bell is viewed, by the greater football public, as the worst kind of list clogger. I like him, but popular opinion is that to include him in a trade would actually HURT the recipient club more than help.

As for Jamar... I agree he's shown little, but never underestimate a club that is bereft of ruckmen. MOST 25 year old ruckmen are pretty crap. They have to start somewhere.

Posted
I would expect Port Adelaide to laugh at that deal.

Honestly Jamar had a pretty stand out year maybe wouldnt player for player but very high draft pick (a pick we wont use anyway) and i reckon you have yourself a deal.

Hmm didnt our jimma win the brownlow at age 25.. and Jamar's 26.

Taken too long and last years good late finish to the season could easily be over shadowed by another injury of some sort - as poor ol' Jamar knows too well.

Would be prepared to consider -Jamar and pick 18, for Ports pick 9-

(Port would probably ask for a bit more, if so throw in Miller/Newts, someone we dont want or need)

It means they do rate him, just that Hampson is about 21 yrs & Jamar is about 26yrs.

I can't see Carlscum trading Hampson as they may need to use Kreuzer up forward and Warnock is injury prone as we all know.

They have reportedly offered Carlton Pick #9 for Sean Hampson.

If that deal can't be done - then they are going to target Mark Jamar, according to the article.

If they want Jamar - having unsuccessfully tried for Hampson- it will have to be pick 9. With either 18 or 34 going the other way.

I can't see Carlscum trading Hampson as they may need to use Kreuzer up forward and Warnock is injury prone as we all know.

Esp. if Fevola goes. Kreuzer will go forward. Waite and O'Hailpin at CHB/CHF.

If we let Jamar go, who exactly will do our rucking?

Or we get burned like we did last year with a couple of rookies handing out BOG Brownlow votes to the likes of Hamish McIntosh and Josh Fraser.

This is a year in which we have to start to show something and we won't do that if we concede the ruck contests from round one as in 2009.

Josh Fraser...

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea
