Jamar up for trade

Weekends at Bernie's

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?

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

    Meh.

    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

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

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
