Steady on.

MFC should go for a fair deal and get Boak + 9 for Jamar.

Come on Melbourne get serious on doing a win win deal!!

Some clubs are active in trade week and their list managers are keen to do deals.

Others seem to mysteriously disappear and don't anything done.

Agree. Adelaide and Richmond have come to mind. No Jordan McMahon pick ups for the Tigers!!!

If MFC had not traded at all, you would get the inevitable naive posts concluding that MFC did not trade :

1. MFC believe our list is ready to challenge for a flag.

2. MFC have failed to improve its list.

3. MFC are negligent because they did not arrange a trade for Newton,Bell, PJ, Bartram and any other fringe player.

4. MFC believe the players in point 3 are must keep and are highly rated.

I am sure there are others.

Agree- we need to get tough- stuff them- we got rid of Jolly instead of Jamar for a rd 14 pick, it was only this season that Jamar has should he was worth us keeping him- now we should absolutely reject pick 9 only- he is woth more than what McLean ws gained for. Get seroius guys We will have no ruck strength at all-

RPFC and Rhino, you both post the same boring sarcasm everyday. It is not funny and your arrogence is ironic and moronoic.

Can you both stop trying to raise each others self esteem with your poor effort to display arrogance.

So was Darren Cuthbertson.

Point being?

I understand it was not lack of ability that cruelly cut short a promising career but tragic circumstances that he couldnt put behind him.

Point being that being "a good player in your day" is faint praise if you can't deliver on a regular basis, even if you have mitigating reasons. I used Cuthbertson as an example of a player whose best was very good, but it didn't translate in to a significant AFL career. I put Fisher in the same basket.

Yes, it is funny. My best stuff isn't sarcastic anyway. So I'm good, thanks.

Ironically arrogant? Huh? Does that mean you think I am actually very modest?

Cause and effect, people. You post nonsense, you get chastened.

If you don't wish to be judged - get a blog and disable the comments. Then you can write all the crap that you feel like, and no-one will hurt you with mean words.

Digga mate, do you honestly see it as arrogance?

I see it as having a little banter, they may be a little tired of seeing ridiculous trade propositions, or them finding time to pass because it's trade week.

If you don't like it, you have other options available. Like providing something to demonland.

I have to hand it to Rhino though, he kept his ego at bay unlike some.

HT of all people I thought you would have seen this one coming mate.

I just enjoy a fish every now and then. Contructive post / looking for a bite goes 50/50 with me. I should get a second tug from RPFC soon.

Don't be so sure.

I'm not. :lol: Just following the report in the Hun. Don't tell me Robbo got it wrong again ?

Has this anything to do with it Redleg - from the C.Brown thread ?: -

Hawthorn get Burgoyne.

Port get pick 9 and Jamar.

Melb get Brown.

Don't be so sure.

Would be very disappointed to lose Jamar. Will be severely depleted in the ruck stocks - I really rate Jamar's tapwork (easdily our best tap ruckman), even if his work around the ground has at times left a bit to be desired.

Would expect something quite decent in return.

Why is anyone interested in Brown? He's an average player with average skills and he's a sniper. No, thanks.

He would sure Toughen up our midfield. That's probably why........

Sorry you missed the sarcasm in my post.

There was no option for MFC at the end of 2004 to get rid of Jamar or Jolly. Sydney only wanted Jolly not Jamar. Jolly cracked the sads when he could not get game time when White was AA ruckman and wanted to leave. Jamar was well behind Jolly in the development stakes.

Agree. Hawks supporters seem to see him as a "heart-&-soul-of-the-team" sort of player, but he wouldn't necessarily be "heart-&-soul" at another club if he did move. Would have thought that, to quote a phrase, he's more use to Hawks than to anyone else.

Jamar is one ugly man, one of many in the Melbourne side. Get rid of him and make PJ captain. ;)

I thought Trade tracker was going to stay around for trade week? I miss the fun or people looking like fools.

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.

    2024 Player Reviews: #3 Christian Salem

    The luckless Salem suffered a hamstring injury against the Lions early in the season and, after missing a number of games, he was never at his best. He was also inconvenienced by minor niggles later in the season. This was a blow for the club that sorely needed him to fill gaps in the midfield at times as well as to do his best work in defence.

    The first round draft pick at #13 from twelve months ago the strongly built medium forward has had an impressive introduction to AFL football and is expected to spend more midfield moments as his career progresses.
