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.

    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.

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

    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

    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.

    • AFLW REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Well, that was a shock. The Demons 4-game unbeaten run came to a grinding halt in a tense, scrappy affair at the sunny, windy Alberton Oval, with the Power holding on for a 2-point win. The Dees had their chances—plenty of them—but couldn't convert when it mattered most. Port’s tackling pressure rattled the Dees, triggering a fumble frenzy and surprising lack of composure from seasoned players.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

    • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

      A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

    • CASEY: Frankston

      The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

      Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.
