I would, but, he left Bris to go home to SA. If he goes anywhere it'd be Adelaide. But, a gun when he's on.

Correct SFebey. He’s from SA, and left Brisbane to go back home. He won’t be leaving and this is just his manager pressuring Port to improve/push through a new contract.

Hes the type of player we need to target though. Good quick runner who can impact games and compliment our inside brigade.

Probably just his manager putting a bit of pressure on Port to put a deal (or improve a deal) on the table, but hope we'd make an enquiry.

Could definitely use his run and kicking skills.

Unlikely he will leave SA, but if he did I would hope we were into him. Polec is AA material this year. He'd need to put in a solid back half of the year but he is massively underrated and has been great this year. When he is on he is up there with Wingard and Gray as Port's most important player. Consistency is there for Polec as well. Be a great get.

 

unlike gaff, is not a free agent, wherein lies the rub

we only have to give up salary cap to secure gaff; getting polec in would cost value in a trade

class player...but gaff is better inside AND outside

Polec would be good. He has a bit of a rude head, a bit like Melksham, and you need a couple of these types running around to inject some heat and spite into the match.

The go home was just an excuse to leave Brisbane, surely.

I have to admit I struggle a bit with the number of grown men who seem unable to survive living a 2 hour plane flight away from their home city.

Agree. That's what I keep telling my wife when I recommend moving further away from the in-laws too!

Agree with this, although it must be said an 18-22 year olds are far from grown men. They are glorified teenagers who can legally buy beer.

It got us Lever, so....

Nope! I don’t think we need him...

We already have players on the list pushing for games and Gaff is coming!

Let the saints or roos cough up a million for him. 

Handy player but not for the money his agent can command with a desperate club like the saints.

Apparently the offer put forward by the Roos is simply too good to refuse.


There was a 20 page Hamish Hartlett thread while back, at the time he was the only gettable Port player worth chasing. Polec is a bit of an injury prone downgrade ain't he?

If Fev could actually see his doodle, the Roos would probably throw six figures at him. They are that desperate, they might leave a bunny in a pot of boiling water on Jared Polec's stove should he knock them back.

  • REPORT: West Coast

    On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

  • POSTGAME: West Coast

    Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.

  • GAMEDAY: West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?
