RUCKMAN Mark Jamar says his aim for the remainder of 2015 is to simply play “good footy for the rest of the year”.

Speaking on Robbo’s Roast, Jamar said whether he returned for Melbourne or remained at Casey for the rest of the season, he was determined to do his utmost for either team.

“Good footy for me means getting my hands on it and giving first use to our mids and getting the ball around the ground defensively, and making sure my opponent has no impact on the game,” he said.

“If I do that, I give myself the best chance of getting back in the seniors.

“If it doesn’t happen, then I’ll just keep playing my game and playing finals at Casey.”

Jamar said he was “in good shape” and hadn’t missed a match or training session this year.

“The body feels good. I had a good solid pre-season and I haven’t missed a training session or a game, so that’s a positive for me and I’ve put some good form together at Casey now,” he said.

Jamar said was also happy to help out fellow rucks Max Gawn, Jake Spencer and Max King with their development.

“I’ve just said to myself that if these guys approach me and say ‘I can’t beat such and such’ at three quarter ‘what do I do’ – then I’ll really give a lot to these guys, and [I] have over the years,” he said.

“But I don’t want to force it on them, because we’ve got Greg Stafford, who does as a super job as our ruck coach.

“Big Spence, Gawny and Max King have got things that I don’t have – they’re quick and they’ve got really good endurance. If they want to do a bit of extra centre bounce work or ball-ups or throw-ins, I’m more than happy to do it with them.”

Meanwhile, Jamar named former Richmond and Geelong ruckman Brad Ottens and West Coast premiership player Dean Cox as the most difficult opponents of his career.
