3 Years for Jamar and McKenzie - seriously?

Featured Replies

All I can think is "thank the Lord (or whoever) that the club isn't a democracy ruled by the majority votes of posters from here". We would have NO players and NO coaching staff....all sacked at some stage over the past year or so.

 

Jamar is crap

He is the worst ruckman in the league Does nothing and should have been shown the door

Giving him 3 years is symptomatic of this club and its inability to make hard decisions

Just appalling !!!! I wont have to worry though he will retire injured next year.

Jamar is on Nick Maxwell's level as a ruckman.

Hard to justify giving Jamar a 3 year deal off the back of this year.

Stef Martin influenced games a lot more in the ruck when he was up and running.

Jackaub is crap

He is the worst poster ion this site Does nothing and should have been shown the door

Letting him post is symptomatic of this site and its inability to make hard decisions

Rated 2nd best ruck in the AFL in 2010. Has the ability to bounce back if we can find a couple of decent clearance players. If we only re-signed players who had performed strongly in the 2012 season we wouldn't be able to field a side next year.

Jamar ranked 11th in the league for hitouts and he only played 14 games.

He would kill nick maxwell over a game i can assure you

Jamar was ranked second in the league for average hitouts per game this year (32.4, behind only Sandilands).

Granted, he was down in the other stats, but ultimately, he is judged on his ruck work.

If you are a ruckman who averages second in the league for hitouts in a 'down' year, you would think that you are worth a new contract.

No point being a gun tap ruckman when you are uselss around the ground.

In his last 6 games, Jamar taken a massive 8 Marks

He kicked the ball 14 times... Yes, over 6 weeks football.

Dean Cox averages near 10 kicks a game and 6 marks a game.

Jamar might be a good tap ruckman, but he is very poor around the ground.

It would help if he made himself a target at least.

That makes Spencer look a lot better

maybe they're on low $ and just wanted the security. if that's the case I think it's a good move. they'll be handy depth players either way.

I would say it is decidedly pointed that you be a gun tap ruckman if you are useless around the ground...

I suppose we are all hoping Jamar comes good,averaging 1 mark a game isn't good enough.

Mckenzie is a good tagger , but has to go to the next level now and become more offensive.

All he has to do DZ is learn how to kick that would improve his offence from zero to good overnight.

Easy thing to say I know and lots of players never improve their kicking.

I agree that he needs to do more around the ground. It will be interesting to see how he is used next year. But I still rate him as a ruckman.

I think that MIsson has the experience and credentials to advise on whether Jamar can keep going for three more years. If Misson gives the all clear, then I'll trust his judgement.

I want to add my support to this Post. I actually think JuniorMac also got it right when he said that both these guys have the Great Bloke attribute.

This will be a very interesting post to look at again in 2015. I'm betting 3 years will definitley be 1 too many for Jamar and McKenzie will be on the fringes which will possible be acceptable because he's a Great Bloke???

  • PREVIEW: Brisbane

    They really had me fooled when I picked them with great confidence to beat the Bombers at Gather Round last week. I should have recognised that nothing is more quintessentially Melbourne than defeating the undefeated early premiership favourite one week and losing to a winless cellar dweller on its way to establishing a record losing streak the next.
