Re: Jamarra - How excited are YOU???
I think he should have a crack now. I know Schache deserves it more but we have allowed players to break the ice in the past. West and Weightman getting early cracks that probably weren't totally deserved come to mind. I think there is some benefit for us there. You never know he might surprise.
If he replaces Hannan what are we losing?

So play Marra and bring back Suckling for one game.

I thought Hannan was ok yesterday, really threw his body in and committed to the contest.
He's still fringe but was ok with his efforts.

Re: Jamarra - How excited are YOU???
Hope they pick Marra this week.
What's the worst that happens? He doesn't play well, gets dropped and realises he needs to improve.
Best case? He plays well and stays in the team.
Hannan to make way.

Re: Jamarra - How excited are YOU???
If Stef Martin is still weeks away, I would be tempted to bring JUH into the side this week. He either has an impact and keeps his spot, or gets exposure to just where his running capacity needs to get to. Khamis got a taste and he spend most the last quarter on the bench because he couldn't run out the game to AFL standards.

Re: Jamarra - How excited are YOU???
JUH has not really been lighting it up. Schache has.
In terms of managing our no.1 pick it he has to get a game this season to get a taste. NM have a history of thug full backs not up to date with latest but yes would love to see him play now.

Re: Jamarra - How excited are YOU???
I'm still on the fence about it.
Feel like the suns game would be the best to introduce him as their backline are pretty much all inner 23.

Re: Jamarra - How excited are YOU???
If he’s going to play at all this year, it’s gotta be this week against NM. Home crowd at Marvel, bottom of the ladder team, and with Tarrant and McKay tackling Bruce and Naughton, it might just be his time. Follow that up with Sydney at marvel against his idol buddy Franklin, and I think that will at least give him a taste of the expectation.
I will never see #16 the same!!

Re: Jamarra - How excited are YOU???
Yeah I’ve settled on wanting to play him this week. External aside we have to consider that there are developmental aims beyond immediate performance with Jamarra that shouldn’t necessitate him crushing the seconds to get a look in.

He'll come in, rise to the level and create the 4 headed beast, which will win many flags.

Re: Jamarra - How excited are YOU???
Anyone hear Cornes' trade suggestion the other day? Was saying Marra for Grainger-Barras. I get we're desperate for a KPD, but GB is 195cm and no way am I doing a straight swap. Who is going to trade pick 1 for pick 6 straight up?

He's just a click bait merchant. We're not trading Marra for anything BUT if we were forced to consider it, you'd only do it for the likes of Darcy Moore/Jacob Weitering etc not a 1 game defender that is 2 or 3 years away from dominating.
Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.

Must have run out of bullshit to spew. That’s as dumb as anything Twitter could offer.
