Port wont have a top 10 pick unless they finish rock bottom. And to trade an AA ruckman and arguably the best tap ruckman in the AFL for just that would be daft.

We are struggling with developing big bodied players with experience and we go and trade a gem away for an uncertain pick. I dont think so.

Yep, spot on. I wouldn't move him for pick #1.

Exactly, and anyone that thinks otherwise has no idea.

Yeah, let's take away the backbone of our side (who took almost a decade of hard work and development to finally become one of the best players of his ilk in the league) and take a punt on another young player, further putting back our possible 'premiership window' by another couple of years....

Look at how well our midfield is doing without him now.

Jesus.

We already covered him on the Scully thread

Decided he would be bad for team balance and not a true demon believer

Fair point. But for a club to say heres pick 1 and somthing else...would be crazy not to entertain the idea.

Is Jesus up at pick 1?

I don't agree. Jamar will be about 30 when this side reaches its prime, he should still be playing great foot by then. Trading him now, even for pick 1, sets us further back development wise. Do we really want to take yet another backward step next year?

When is our window?

2013-2019ish.

How much of that will Jamar play?

I think he can play, even PCL-less, into his early thirties.

That gives him until around 2017ish.

We should keep him.

On a side note, does anyone else feel weird when they see years like '2017' being around the corner?

As a sci-fi fan, it is a little offputting...

Melbourne will be like Venice but the G will have a surrounding levee system that allows it to stay intact.

The money will be spent, because it has to be spent.

Hence the importance of doing whatever it takes to bet the likes of JC & Moses onto our list!

Exactly, should have a good hard look at Noah for the same reason.

    GOLDIE'S METTLE by Meggs

    On a perfect night for football at the home of the Redlegs, Norwood Oval, it was the visiting underdogs Melbourne who led all night and hung on to prevail in a 2-point nail-biter. In the previous round St Kilda had made it a tough physical game to help restrict Adelaide from scoring and so Mick Stinear set a similar strategy for his team. To win it would require every player to do their bit on the field plus a little bit of luck.  Fifty game milestoner Sinead Goldrick epitomised

    REDLEG PRIDE by Meggs

    Hump day mid-week footy at the Redlegs home ground is a great opportunity to build on our recent improved competitiveness playing in the red and blue.   The jumper has a few other colours this week with the rainbow Pride flag flying this round to celebrate people from all walks of life coming together, being accepted. AFLW has been a benchmark when it comes to inclusivity and a safe workplace.  The team will run out in a specially designed guernsey for this game and also the following week

    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
