The Jamarra Thread

[Wetdog]

Had a good chat to Mitch Honeychurch on the weekend and he said Jamarra will be playing for the Dogs again by round 13. Make of that what you will.

I spoke to Sedat Sir, and he said yeah, nah.

 

[The White Mouse]

Ted Whitten interrupted a seance I attended last week and said he's gone. Make of that what you will.

 

[Lindsay_Gilbee]

I don't think it's lip service, I think Marra truly believes it.

He sounds pretty delusional. Does he think he’s just going to walk on into our team again? Does he think he is ever gonna get another contract that doesn’t have a billion triggers attached it it?

I won’t call a bloke I’ve never met dumb, but he seems extremely naive. I don’t think he realises the damage he’s doing to himself in the eyes of pretty much everyone’s except Damien Barrett (the only bloke left who wants to blame our coach).

How are you Scrag? Long time no see.

What the hell happened to Scrag?

The knowledge some people have after only being around for six weeks is quite phenomenal.

Posting for six weeks. What knowledge?

I'm not talking about you.

There's someone with us who 'arrived' six weeks ago who has some incredible knowledge of posters, their mannerisms & nicknames. It often takes a while to feel comfortable in a new environment but this person feels so at home that they even had the confidence to make a post entirely in Spanish.

The Antarctic (figuratively in every sense).

I drove up on Saturday morning and back Sunday morning. I made it out.

It's like the Hotel California. Good work distracting the madman at the door...

The number of people losing their guts in the street in the city whilst on the piss was eye opening on Saturday night.

We need a local to mount a spirited defence of the place. I wonder if there is one

 

[nooB]

been hearing rumours about his off field habits since mid to late 2023

Former director told certain events that happened in the middle of 2022 that in hindsight, has had an impact on JUH now. Not immediately but it took time to play out - what the media is covering is tip of the iceberg stuff. This is why I was hoping they'd keep it under wraps and gift wrap it all to another club in 2027 but I think an exit is the best thing for the club.

Why I trust this former director as he was/is 'ITK' and called the Stringer stuff and departure 12 months before it all happened back in 2017 - before media and anyone knew or made it public, he knew all about it.

Barnaby Joyce out and about again?

 

[The Slitherin' Snake]

I heard it was the bye week before finals hence why he didn’t appear at training until the Thursday before the final.

We played on Friday night 6/9. Surely you dont mean he went missing until the day before the game and still got picked?

 

[Wocka]

Doug Hawkins said he was namure.

Missed multiple sessions in the lead up to that final. Which ones, I’m not sure.

 

[hoianbulldog]

I think he is in Benny Cousins territory - without the work rate to still perform whilst on the ‘gas’.

This is what people need to understand.....mental health is a politically correct catch all.

 

[hoianbulldog]

Doug Hawkins said he was namure.

He said "imanure".

Marra taking a leave of absence

 

[Bulldogs85]

Western Bulldogs forward Jamarra Ugle-Hagan is taking a leave of absence from the Club as he deals with personal issues.

The decision has been mutually reached by Jamarra and his family, his management, the Club and the AFL.

A management plan has been developed with Jamarra.

"Jamarra's health and wellbeing remains the absolute priority and he will be given whatever time he needs,” Sam Power

, Executive Manager - Men’s Football, said.

"We will continue to support Jamarra throughout this period.”

The Club and the family have asked that Jamarra’s privacy and that of his family be respected at this time.

Thats nothing

 

[Golden_6]

This is the right decision. Remove him from the football club & program completely to allow the playing & coaching staff to focus on the actual task at hand without any distractions.

Obviously this year is a write off from a playing perspective. Time will tell whether he accepts the help he needs to get his life back on track.

Is there a path that he corrects his life over the next 6 months and appears happy & healthy for day one of preseason? Perhaps. If not, his time at the club will be over.
