Featured Replies

 

Well done, young man. Star in the making, but gee it's a ridiculous award.

 

I reckon he is a good chance of winning it coz he just won it.

Loved seeing May at the end with the massage / back slap combo.

I hope that is the extent of the touching....

Jackson stands a chance though just a game. 2 goals. 8 possessions.  2 marks. 14 hits outs. 

Well done Jacko.

Seriously... it was another step forward for Jackson, but he has a long way to go to be a Rising Star of the calibre of other nominees. They don't give the award on potential.

We all want him to be great, but he's not. Not yet, anyway. 

Same goes for Kozzie. Three minutes of highlights. Looong way to go.

This aged well........... :)

Agreed - May is a fantastic leader, especially getting around the young guys.

You're just jealous you weren't there to ruffle his luxurious locks Bin.


His hair needs a lot of work. One day he’ll be old and he will have many regrets. 

Just now, titan_uranus said:

Well done to Jackson.

He is our first Rising Star nominee since....

Oscar McDonald in Round 21, 2016.

Don’t mention the war. 

Well deserved for Jacko, he could’ve had 3 goals had Fritta not floated in front and pinch an uncontested mark from him!

Really looking forward to seeing him progress.

I reckon his chances are pretty good now they have announced it.

Your stealing E T s thunder.

Well done Jacko!

Where's @Mental Demons? Weren't you the one taking pot shots at Jackson for playing ahead of Tom McDonald the last few weeks because he couldn't take a contested mark? ?‍♂️?‍♂️

He'll be leading the award after he destroys Goldstein.

he's holding down chf and he's about to hold down starting ruck after, what, seven games?

i honestly was mighty surprised when he was the selection but he looks like he'll develop beautifully, injury permitting

smart player with a big frame and good skill

 

Luke Jackson is our future can play in  a number of positions that is why we picked him up with our pick 3.

Can play in the ruck can go forward and also play as a midfielder. Luke will become a dangerous player for the opposition  within the next couple of years. He has a great pair of hands can certainly take a mark and most of all for an 18 yo he looks composed and has no clumsiness in his game.

 For a big boy he looks polished and will only improve with game time.

And like Clary he often has a smile on his face when you would see most footballers have a look of intense concentration. Obviously enjoying his footy

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

    It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

    The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

    The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.
