    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.

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

    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

      Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

      The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0–4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.

    • GAMEDAY: Geelong

      It's Game Day, and reinforcements are finally arriving for the Demons—but will it be too little, too late? They're heading down the freeway to face a Cats side returning home to their fortress after two straight losses, desperate to reignite their own season. Can the Demons breathe new life into their campaign, or will it slip even further from their grasp?

    • PREVIEW: Geelong

      "It's officially time for some alarm bells. I'm concerned about the lack of impact from their best players." This comment about one of the teams contesting this Friday night’s game came earlier in the week from a so-called expert radio commentator by the name of Kane Cornes. He wasn’t referring to the Melbourne Football Club but rather, this week’s home side, Geelong.The Cats are purring along with 1 win and 2 defeats and a percentage of 126.2 (courtesy of a big win at GMHBA Stadium in Round 1 vs Fremantle) which is one win more than Melbourne and double the percentage so I guess that, in the case of the Demons, its not just alarm bells, but distress signals. But don’t rely on me. Listen to Cornes who said this week about Melbourne:- “They can’t run. If you can’t run at speed and get out of the contest then you’re in trouble.
