Would likely get a bag of chips for him at this stage. More value in keeping him for his experience than giving him away cheaply. Certainly the development of Gawn and Pencil indicates his value in that regard, and if he can stay injury free there may be another decent run in him.

:The residual issue is what he adds outside of the ruck contest, which is pretty much nothing. I think Roos can address that.

Without a decent offer, which seems extremely unlikely, I'd be keeping him on.

I suppose I should've gone through the entire post! Interesting that we've refuted the article, usually if there's truth to it they let it slide.

I still think it would be the best move for both parties, but whatever happens happens.

Going by our recent history a quick denial to a fresh rumour is reason enough to highten suspicion.

I think at that time when Jamar signed that contract, that Gawn, Spencer, & Fitz were under-performing with Gawn injured.

Stefan Martin had been going OK though.

The value in trading Jamar is not what we would get back in a trade, it's ridding ourselves of a 2 year albatross and freeing what you'd assume is some pretty significant cap space.

Since when is cap space an issue for us Doc? We're up to our ears in cap space are we not?

Well if they come out and say that they have agreed to part then that would probably lower his trade value.

Whereas if we come out and say we are willing to trade him but he is still wanted then we might be able to get a slightly better deal.

Pick 87 instead of 88 then?

Yep we should be but who knows what the list manager's been doing the last few years. We may need that extra cap room at the end of next year if we want to keep Frawley, re-sign Jones etc

This would be a nothing trade. We already have 7 spots to fill this offseason.

Meh.

7 spots? Isn't it 8? Or am I miscounting, perhaps due to rookie upgrades or something.

  • Davey
  • Sylvia
  • Rodan
  • MacDonald
  • Davis
  • Tynan
  • Sellar
  • Gillies

(plus rookie spot for Couch)

Those 8 out, Hogan in. I'd say we are up already

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    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

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session. BLWNBA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I arrived at around 1015 and the squad was already out on the track. The rehab group consisted of XL, McAdam, Melksham, Spargo and Sestan. Lever was also on restricted duties and appeared to be in runners.  The main group was doing end-to-end transition work in a simulated match situation. Ball mov

WAYNE WUSSELL'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Rehab: Lever, Spargo, McAdam, Lindsay, Brown Sinnema is excellent by foot and has a decent vertical leap. Windsor is training with the Defenders.

    A couple of intrepid Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock for the midweek Preseason Training Session to bring you the following observations. Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)

    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
