Why are we not in the conversation for JUH?

Hawks, Pies, Tigers, Dons and Swans all circling. Why the heck aren't we throwing the kitchen sink in the ring. Petty is likely to leave. TMac and BBB on the brink of retirement. Gus forced out of the game. We will have plenty of room in the cap.

Go out and get Jamarra Ugle-Hagan!!!

    The club needs to come out and clearly state it's intentions to the media on JUH before it's too late and we miss our chance to be in a news article.

    Would be extremely disappointed if we weren't going hard for him. 

    Does he like it plonked on top of his head 25 times per game?

    I think this bloke could be a bust, if given a long term big money guaranteed contract.

    I wouldn't mortgage the club for him.

    Every club will enquire. Its Round 1, much to go under the bridge before JUH signs anywhere. I think it's 50 50 him leaving simply because of the size of the offers that are going to come. Tiges are unlikely to be attractive, nor are Hawthorn or the Dons. I'd say if Sydney go hard he'll go there, after that we're as good a chance as any.

    Let the media circus begin...

    FWIW We do have a potentially more budget-friendly player in a similar mold in the making. One that so far is a hell of a lot more efficient in front of goal.

    2023

    Jamara - 35.35 (23 games)

    JVR - 28.9 (20 games)

    Now of course Jamara has been able to perform better by being released further up the field, terrific marking as a lead up forward creating lots of inside 50's etc. But JVR is a better and more willing tackler and performs well in the ruck so far.

    What a dream it would be to have both!

    First: Merge thread. I think there's be three of this exact thread already! :D

    Second: JVR is better than JUH.

    Third: Wouldn't mind having them both because I think they'd complement each other very well, but it would be awkward that to get him we would have to pay Ugle-Hagen double.

    Fourth: Ugle-Hagan isn't the player our structure needs most urgently.

    I remember Kelvin Templeton coming across to Melbourne as a champion full forward.

    I still have PTSD (Post Templeton Stress Disorder) about that.  At least JUH still has two intact knees.

    I hope the recruiting department is monitoring 'Land - cos there's no way they would have conceived of this brilliant and cunning plan.

    I think his goals per game average at Melbourne were pretty similar to his career average. Just got him banged-up. When going, easily in the best 10 footballers I've seen play the game.

    If you wanna bring that kinda rational thinking to 'Land @COOLX, you better think again.

    It will be a fun year for Doggy supporters with both English and JUH up for new contracts.

    Eagles will throw the farm at English

    Just now, leave it to deever said:

    How long is Hogan contracted for?

    Re-signed at end of 2022 for 23 and 24.

    Fox reports that GWS are now offering him a 2 year extension

    Who then Goffy ?

    jezza Cameron OK?

    The encumbent club has one big advantage in signing an existing player in their final contract year but it devalues as each week passes.

    Injury !!

    Do you take the 7 x $1M deal now or wait until season's end for the 6 x $1.25M but risk getting far less if you do an ACL.

    Raises the question of whether players should be able to sign with new clubs during the season as happens in NRL

    As Doja Cat says - get in to it Juh

    Contrary to the media reports I am sure that we are looking at JUH and have made enquiries.

    I’m wondering how high and long Landers’ would be prepared to go?

    5 years, $1.25 million a year?

    10 years, $1 million+ a year?

     

    What figures would be the top end you’d be happy to go?

    • REPORT: Richmond

      The fans who turned up to the MCG for Melbourne’s Anzac Day Eve clash against Richmond would have been disappointed if they turned up to see a great spectacle. As much as this was a night for the 71,635 in attendance to commemorate heroes of the nation’s past wars, it was also a time for the Melbourne Football Club to consolidate upon its first win after a horrific start to the 2025 season. On this basis, despite the fact that it was an uninspiring and dour struggle for most of its 100 minutes, the night will be one for the fans to remember. They certainly got value out of the pre match activity honouring those who fought for their country. The MCG and the lights of the city as backdrop was made for nights such as these and, in my view, we received a more inspirational ceremony of Anzac culture than others both here and elsewhere around the country.

    • CASEY: Richmond

      The match up of teams competing in our great Aussie game at its second highest level is a rarity for a work day Thursday morning but the blustery conditions that met the players at a windswept Casey Fields was something far more commonplace.They turned the opening stanza between the Casey Demons and a somewhat depleted Richmond VFL into a mess of fumbling unforced errors, spilt marks and wasted opportunities for both sides but they did set up a significant win for the home team which is exactly what transpired on this Anzac Day round opener. Casey opened up strong against the breeze with the first goal to Aidan Johnson, the Tigers quickly responded and the game degenerated into a defensive slog and the teams were level when the first siren sounded.

    • POSTGAME: Richmond

      After five consecutive defeats, the Demons have now notched up back-to-back victories, comfortably accounting for the Tigers in the traditional ANZAC Eve clash. They surged to a commanding 44-point lead early in the final quarter before easing off the pedal, resting skipper Max Gawn and conceding the last four goals of the game to close out a solid 20-point win.
