Trade Jamar

Featured Replies

The only real issue is that we dont have any ruckmen to take his spot.

Of course we do - Spencil!! And Gawn can easily ruck against Cox, Sandilands, Jolly, Hille and McIntosh!

Geez guys!!

 

Most ridiculous suggestion I.ve heard. Who will give us that advantage in the centre over the next 2-3 years. None of the others are up to it yet. Maybe in 2-3 we will have someone who has acheived what he has to take over the reins.

NO!!! NO!!!! NO!!!!!!

Agree- Jamar has developed in becoming the most important player in our team IMO,however we need to find some support for him-whether the FD believe we have it now or need to trade.This is a major evaluation right now.

Something that I've been considering for some time is whether we should trade Jamar.

He's been great for us this season and will be useful in developing the other rucks, however, his value is at it's peak following his inclusion in the All Australian team.

He's my argument for trading him:

- he could be worth a first round draft pick (Jolly went for pick 14 and 46 when he was 27)

- he's 27 and will start going down hill in the next couple of years

- he's just played his best season

- this is the first season in which he's played 22 games, he played 21 games in 2006, but other than that, his previous best was 14 games in 2008

- he's an All Australian player and that will inflate his value significantly (Burgoyne was worth picks 8 & 9 despite his only All Australian appearance being in 2006, three years before he was traded)

- we could recruit another young player or two with a high draft pick who will develop alongside Scully, Trengove, Watts & co.

Who would want him?

- Hawthorn?

- Bulldogs?

- Adelaide (pick 14)?

- Port (pick 16)?

- Gold Coast?

- Carlton (pick 18)?

It's difficult to see who would pick him up, although I'm sure that things will become a lot clearer once the Gold Coast enters trade week and other teams get some of their picks in exchange for their players.

Wow. Fair to say this is a late contender for worst post of the year.

WTF! Trade Jamar???? Why don't we just delist everyone and start from scratch??

No way!

Wash your mouth out

Thanks for the edit. Almost had a heart attack.

Haha Gooner whilst... hahha.. you are thinking ahead.. hahah sorry some of the responses brilliant.. and trying to stay ahead of the game big Russ is really our only option for the ruck spot. We need to keep him and run him into the ground until he can't run no more. A large portion of time, money and effort has been pored into him, he is the bridge between our next big guys developing.

My first thought was that someone had bumped this thread from two years ago.

I understand the idea, but it would only make sense if we had two ruckmen. By that I mean Jamar + someone else who is actually competent in the ruck.

Since we don't, trading Jamar is akin to pressing the self-destruct button. We would struggle to win more than 5 games a year.

So no.

i thought this was a brought up thread from a while ago when i saw the title.

Please tell me OP that you are joking and just wanted to see a reaction. As he has signed a 2 year contract I doubt Melbourne would want to trade him anyway

It's hard enough to have to make the calls on blokes like Junior but to go trading blokes that hit form because their currency is high would be club moral killing . Who would want to stay , and who would want to play for us .


on par with the " will Jack Trengove make it" topic as the dumbest sh** I have read on this site!!!!!!!!

Ridiculous thread B)

Great avatar.

I think now that we have a very young team, we can lay off the youth obsession, particularly given that Jamar plays the position where the best players have proven to be the older guys.

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

  • CASEY: Frankston

    The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.
