Go and Get JUH

[Bigfoot 303]

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!!!

 

[Skuit 10,031]

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. 

[Demonland 74,431]

10 or 11 year deal in the offing 🤯

 

[Moonshadow 17,678]

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?

[Gorgoroth 13,220]

I thought we wanted better goal kicking…

[Redleg 42,167]

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.

[Roost it far 10,144]

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.

[Young Blood 2,642]

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!

I'd prefer Naughton.

He comes out of contract in 25 years

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.

[Demonstone 23,580]

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

[Queanbeyan Demon 7,024]

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.

What happens if JUH is kept scoreless against us ? Are people still going to say let's get him .

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

[Diamond_Jim 12,773]

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

[leave it to deever 17,618]

How long is Hogan contracted for?

[Diamond_Jim 12,773]

Just now, leave it to deever said:

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?

[Diamond_Jim 12,773]

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

[DubDee 26,675]

As Doja Cat says - get in to it Juh

[CHF 2,825]

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

[BoBo 2,956]

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?
