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

    Might need to add Robert Walls to the growing list of king goose contenders.

    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.

    Good work Russian and good work MFC

    Now lets sign up the rest of the key lads (young and old)

    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.

    I see Jamar and Gawn being our Cox / Natanui in 2-3 years time

  • Quote

    Brilliant news. great to see he has faith in whats going on. Will make signing others a lot easier.

    Next.....

    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.

    Apparently he didnt think GWS facilities were good enough....... ^_^

    Wonder if Caro will rethink Jamar being [censored] at being left out of leadership group (despite the fact he was actually included this year)

    Mass exodus of players.......3 years and STILL waiting

    either that or couldnt locate this weeks hidden location or care for some of the company they keep.

    Good onya Rush -> that's really sticking it up that weak flower who you'll be opposed to on Sunday who couldn't stand the heat so he peed out of the kitchen.

  • Quote

    great stuff big russian!!

    he was a must sign, and now let the flow on effect take place

    FRAC* David King said he'd be staggered if Jamar was at the Dees in 2013.

    Happy to help with 'staggering' of David King.

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

      The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
