Compared to Oliver he doesn't have the body of work behind him to command another chance even if a top draft pick. Oliver had 4 B and Fs, 3 AAs and some high Brownlow finishes and was an outrageous improver after coming into the system. By year 2 averaging 30 touches a game and then polishing his game further. JUH had a promising year last year, but that's not enough.

JUH is a no.1 pick and only 22. Unless he absolutely implodes he will remain on a list whether at the dogs or elsewhere. Schache made it to 27 with no apparent ability based purely off being a no.2 pick KPF.

Times are changing. There's too much money at stake now and clubs are taking a stand. Beveridge also has a history of getting his way. It's not always about how 'talented' you are, sometimes mediocre players manage to squeak through due to different circumstances. Perfect example at my club: Harry Morrison. How he is getting a game still to me is baffling.

It doesn't matter what pick he is, that draft was a total right off .

Schache was different to JUH, in that he seemingly didn't have the work ethic required, but wasn't putting teammates and coaches offside. There's a difference between a player who doesn't look after themselves and a player who actively hurts his relationships with others.

Disagree with that. JUH clearly has the level of talent expected from the no.1 pick - his back half of the year, especially given he's splitting the forward line with Naughton and Darcy, was very very good for a fourth-year key forward.

There are still others in that draft who are very much looking the goods. Riley Thilthorpe at no. 2, for a start.

Thanks for re-directing the conversation away from what everyone else was talking about so you could focus solely on what you wanted to say.

I've given my opinion. They should get Jammarra help and try and retain him, if they can't , it's not a huge loss, they will get draft picks in return and they play Sam Darcy at full forward.

My daughter had a kid in her class where the family owned 2 cafes and mum worked one 7 days a week, dad worked the other 7 days a week. The kid spent every morning in before school care and every afternoon in after school care. Every weekend in weekend care and every holiday in holiday care.

Had every behavioural issue you can imagine.

Was incredibly sad.

pretty commonplace amongst a lot of the lower end private schools. i was fortunate enough to have parents who'd lived frugally as young adults and built a nice little nest egg (including life insurance payouts when my dad passed away) and, and smart investments allowed my brother and i to attend private schools while maintaining some semblance of homelife, while i was privileged in that regards, we were realistically some of the poor(est) families at the school, not including people on scholarships, and it was far more apparent. there were kids who'd stay in the school library waiting for their parents until 5pm - 6pm every day, and they were miserable and lonely because of lack of family connection.

not to go all "woe is me" for rich families, but it does harm their emotional growth and development if they're unable to rely on their homelife connections.

i think that JUH's youth is frightfully miserable, and it's something that even the best therapists will struggle to help him grow from, but he needs support, not scorn. everyone does at some stage in their life.

Whatever happens this has to be devastating for Dogs fans. He's supposed to be a generational talent.

Honestly our forward line seems to operate better without him. Darcy, Naughton and Weightman is enough firepower. A lot more space and less forwards all leading to the same spot. If we can get decent trade value for him I'll be happy to see him go.
 
I must admit that I hate these kinds of threads where posters claim to be in the know about what's going on with a player, but then do a bunch of nudge-nudge-wink-wink "I'm not saying" bullshit.

If someone knows what's going on, just say so outright. Posters are speculating about all kinds of random crazy stuff anyway, so it's not like the real truth would be any worse than what some people already believe.
