The Jamarra Thread

[Dogs_r_barking]

The club asks buddy to give Marra some advice... his advice was come play for the swans

Yeah like Buddy had a lot of success there

 

[dergert]

Meh. Get something decent for him.

 

[Bald]

Maybe Papley is the small forward we are keen on.

 

[F6Typhoon]

Morris mentioned that he wants to play for Sydney “in a perfect world”. Didn’t sound emphatic about it though.

Doubt Morris has the ability?
What position?

 

[BrisDog]

Very close to the border certainly closer to Queensland the Sydney.

Ah yes, Nimbin, great centre

 

[grassman75]

Ah yes, Nimbin, great centre

Preferred him at Full Back BD

 

[Lindsay_Gilbee]

Been saying for a while I think he’ll end up at the swans. They need a key forward so desperately. Their forwardline is probably only behind the dees.

 

[LondonBulldog]

This is where the AFL should be involved. When I player has broken a contract (such as this year with Marra) any trade for the wellbeing of the player needs to be ratified by the AFL.

If he wants to go to the Swans, Dogs would be happy yet a fair deal is needed (not a let's feel sorry for Marra and get him where we wants to go). Swans first pick should be in play, not a charity pick!

All signs were there months and months ago he was done with the Dogs and wasn't coming back, especially the disrespect he was showing through his actions. Yeah yeah, we were hearing "I heard it straight from his mouth he is staying with the dogs" "I have it on best authority, inside info he's staying put"
People just have lost that ability to see what's in front of their eyes.
Good riddance to the ungrateful turd. Played nearly everyone.

That training video was hilarious, talk about a staged social media event.

 

[Golden_6]

I really have no issues with him going to the Swans as long as the swap is for their 2025 first rounder. We clear his cap and gain good capital to attack Butters, Rowell & Bergman. Darcy & Naughton with support from Buku & Croft is enough for our future key forwards.

He's contracted and has immensely screwed us over this year. His talent is worth more than their first and they are desperate for a big name key forward. It's high risk for them but very much high reward. If their culture is as good as they say, then they should have no issue paying up.

He is incredibly far back in terms of fitness, will take a lot of work to get him up to the level again.

 

[JohnnySteel]

Those ITK does he actually want to play for Sydney (or is the media trying to will it).
Last was reported on here that he sees himself at the Dogs.

They did throw $10m at Naughton.

All of his social media stuff seems to indicate he likes the dogs

Then you'll have massive issues with him going to the Swans. No club will offer more then a swap of picks or a third rounder. When he was at his worst clubs were contacting his management in hopes they could get him across as a delisted free agent should the dogs have ripped up his contract. Clubs would be happy to pick up his potential but won't pay for his flaws.

I've heard nothing other then of his desire to return to training and return to play this year (looks unlikely of actually happening), best we can hope for is a block of VFL games to give him confidence going into next year.
Next year is a long way away all things considered however I take him at his word that he wants to be a dogs player and repay the faith. Happy to be called Gullible or Naive but he sounds more genuine then those who have falsely claimed the same recently.

Could also be his manager throwing pressure back at the dogs to get him back involved at the club / back on field this year.

Who bloody knows anymore.

He's obviously in good nick compared to all of us regular folk, but anyone who has played any sport, even junior level knows you can't build the fitness you need for your particular sport without actually training/playing your particular sport.

I think if he fronts up at the club soon, does every session and then plays some VFL clubs might get interested.

If he’s just doing glorified boxercise promos on Instagram it won’t move the needle much - Great Jamarra, you didn’t get fat after six months out.

Hadn’t thought of Papley but he was keen to come back to Vic a few years ago.

 

[Mr. Walker]

I agree with this. I am biased I know but I see it the same as the AFL decision to compensate the Blues for the Dogs signing Liam Jones after COVID. In this case the Dogs has followed the AFL protocols concerning a player with mental health issues which may contribute to the Dogs not receiving just compensation for a subsequent player transfer had these protocols not been in place. The precedent has been set.

 

[Doggy]

I thought he wanted to stay in Victoria, and now suddenly he wants to go to a club that Adelaide players called a rabble?

His management have wanted him to leave Melbourne all year.

Maybe. But that is his management

 

[VL3OJ]

It could’ve also been recommended to get him out of Melbourne

Queensland and NSW would be the most conducive to keeping JUH low key. I would however sign him to the Tassie Devils for a hell of a lot and then contract him back for less until the devils officially fold/commence
