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.

    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.

    • PREVIEW: West Coast

      It was bad enough that the Melbourne Football Club created yet another humiliating scenario inside its wretched season at Marvel Stadium last Sunday, but the final insult is that it has been commanded to return to the scene of the crime to inflict further punishment on its fans this week. Incidentally, if this match preview, of a game that promises to be one of the most unattractive fixtures in the history of the game, happens to cut out of your computer screen three quarters of the way through, it’s no coincidence. I’ll be mirroring the Demons’ lacklustre effort against St Kilda from last Sunday when they conceded the largest last quarter turnaround for victory in the history of the game.

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

    • CASEY: Sandringham

      The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
      Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

      The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.
