Will give the team a lift BUT, we went into this game with near identical circumstances last year, on a high after beating the Bummers, this year the challenge is to back it up and not get blow away. GO DEES! The procession of signings begins

I expected Jamar to sign myself,you can tell he loves the club as he stated it earlier in the year he wanted to be a one club man.

He's a very hard to move ruckman is mark..not your athletic jeff white type but more a hold his ground & strong mark type.

Thanks for giving us some good news mark as its been a long year to date.

Now for the barcode lookalikes on monday!

This actually is a big statement.

All the crap about the senior players and the rift with Neeld being put out there, then Jamar goes and re-signs for 3 more years.

Big slap in the face to all those reporters suggesting things. It shows that the culture is growing down there this signature and that the senior guys are onboard

Never in doubt for mine. He said he wanted to remain a demon and sometimes you just have to take a player's word for it.

Well done MFC and well done Jamar. Definitely a required player and now we can all breath easy knowing our ruck department isn't going to become a problem for us.

3 years is perfect to "pass the baton" onto the next hopeful.

Go Dees :)

Reporters are doing a fine job of late....getting most of it wrong....

How good does Robinson feel right now....such an arrogant tool he is..Him & moron whately on 360 go together well...

But back to JAMAR!!!! YESS! Now for a big game V the Pies where he just bowls over their rucks!

Great to hear!

Fair to say we have moved away from the '1 year deals' for those in their thirties...

He will be 32 when this expires. And that is fine, ruckmen's careers start later and, if all is well, finish later.

There was no doubt in my mind that he would stay a demon, maybe a touch surprised we gave him a three year deal but still very happy. Hopefully others will start to follow his example and ink some deals.

I agree. A new culture may finally be building. Whats that thing about Better clubs keeping players !

We might just be turning that corner at long last. Thanks for the vote of confidence there Russian :)

I was one who thought he might be expendable based on the number of rucks on our list and the fact that I thought his performance peaked in 2010 - however I am glad he has signed on for 3 and can hopefully see Gawn and/or Fitzpatrick take over the rucking mantle at that time.

Would assume his deal would also likely be heavily back ended so that when he is eligible for veterans status only half of his salary has to be in the cap.

Actually the veterans list rules have been changed - no longer is it half the salary of up to 3 or so players, now it is $100K per veteran taken outside the cap with no limit on how many veterans you can have.

Well done Rush! We need your mature body, experience and strong work ethic around the place for a while yet. 2-3 years should be just about right to hand over the mantle of number one ruckman to the next generation.

Glad he's re-signed, but Jamar is not a strong mark. He rarely takes them.

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an

    ALAS SPRINGS by Whispering Jack

    I got the word on Saturday from someone who knows someone inside the Fremantle camp that the Dockers were pumped and supremely confident about getting the W the next day against Melbourne at TIO Traeger Park in the red heart of the country. I was informed that the Dockers were extremely confident for a number of reasons. They had beaten the Demons on their home territory at the MCG at their last two meetings so they didn’t see beating them at Alice Springs as a problem. They belie

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,
