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

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.

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.

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

    HIGHLIGHTS/LOWLIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Melbourne traveled across the continent to take on the Fremantle Dockers in sweltering conditions at Mandurah south of Perth in a game that delivered the club both its highlight and its lowlight in the first minute.  But first, let’s start by doing away with the usual cliches used in connection with the game. It was just a practice match and the result didn’t matter. Bad kicking is bad football. The game was played in severe heat, the swirly breeze played havoc with both teams resulting in

    The Dees were blown out of the water early by the Fremantle Dockers before fighting back and going down by 19 points in their final practice match of the preseason before Round 1. Remember it's only a practice match if you lose.

    TRAINING: Friday 28th February 2025

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock to bring you their observations from today's training session before the Demons head off to Perth for their final Practice Match. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Beautiful morning, not much wind, more than a couple of dozen spectators.  The players were up and about, boisterous and having fun. One of their last drills were three teams competing in a hard at it, handball game in a small area. Goody

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the
