Yes it is a good deal - I agree with you - try to sell the club to Jacobs and try to do a proper deal with Port and if not take him in the PSD. Jurrah is a non-factor.

Hypothetically speaking the deal might need a bit of tweaking - but in theory you could try.

Port - Out pick 7 & Jacobs In Liam + Pick 13 + Second Rounder we could pick up from another deal

Melbourne in - Pick 7 Jacobs Out Liam + Pick 13 + Second Rounder we could pick up from another deal

but I'm sure you could still massage depend on how ruthless you want to be & how much you may or may not want to preserve a pre-season draft pick.

Thinking might be if you have to give up 3&4 to preserve Viney into the second round pick 7 might be good enough to grab your second person in the national draft.

Again are we playing poker or dominoes.

Yes a club is going to trade a first round pick who plays for them. for a potential criminal who may never play again and has made it clear he's happy to not play AFL again if need be. If this trad

I'm not convinced GWS & GC would get involved in the Pre-season because of list reduction placed on both clubs. Plus Im not sure even if they did - they would want to pay "reasonable" dollars for

I think Richmond is the biggest threat.

Are people still bloody putting Jurrah in a trade situation.

FFS.

Seriously. Jurrah is worth nothing and if port want him, they'll get him via the rookie draft. Thats if he even nominates.

Stop wasting people's time. Close this thread.

Had a day off - go away you are just noise - I thought I had got rid of you obviously not. You are the troll along with a few of your "mates." Please stay on topic.

If Liam is leaving it would be devoid of us not to attempt to assist him. We are building a new culture around here. The ways of the past are gone.

how do you draw the conclusion Jurrah is worth nothing? If this was truly the case then there wouldn't have been countless inflammatory comment directed at him after the announcement of his departure. No one would of cared.

Jurrah is still young and huge on skill and a knack for goals. Melbourne always looked a chance when he was on the field.

What a disspointment Jurrah has been, provided exitement to all Melbourne supporters but just fell away. Jurrah has alot of natural talent but was never prepared to do the hard yards required to play AFL it's a pity but there it is

He has too much baggage maybe Port wll take him a very big maybe

Any chance of Melbourne picking up Jurrah again as a rookie??

Honestly, I would have thought NO at this stage. Liam needs time to get his mind straight - we will continue to support him.

Only a complete nut-job would consider giving up ND7 for a player he could pick up with pick 1000 in the Rookie draft.

What would you offer then? If you cant come up with a better alternative - dont read the thread - simple really. (82 and counting :o )

Jurrah is worth nothing to us. He has walked out, If you think anyone will trade a good player for him you clearly dont understand how trading works.

I fail to see how this quote is in any way relevant to the discussion of his trade value. It doesn't change the fact that he has walked out on the club. It doesn't change the fact that he has stated clearly that he is going to live in Adelaide with his family. How can you see any trade value in a player that the club no longer holds? Liams AFL options are presently at one club, and that is Port. Given that Adelaide has said they don't want him and he has said that he will not live anywhere else, they have no fear of a rival club drafting him, and can happily wait until they want to take him, be it the end of the National Draft, the PSD or the Rookie draft.

So, given that Liam is playing at Port or nowhere next season, how is the fact that the club is going to continue to foot his legal bills in any way a factor?

Your "exit" policy is as vital as your entry policy. You never shut any doors with a loud bang - those days are over.

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership. Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9. A huge achievement in what was a dominant season by North. For Melbourne fans, the season was unfortunately one of frustration and disappointment
