    So excited to watch the career of this young man unfold. The glimpses we got of him during the year showed what a huge potential talent he is.  He has midfielder skills and agility and I'd really like to see him at least given a bit of time in the centre of the ground.  He will probably end up 200cm/95 kg and will hopefully be a nightmare for opposition defenders for many years to come if he doesn't become the tallest mid in the game.

    I guess the biggest challenge will be keeping him in our colours for the entirety of his career.

    Me to PD, he really does have a lot of skill and tricks, an exciting time for Luke Jackson and MFC, just a shame that he didn't sign for a few more years, still team success will quiet all our trembling hearts..!!!!

    Does anyone remember Bryan Kenneally?

    IMO Luke is Bryan mark 2.

    Has a similar playing style and played 1st grade in his first year.

    If I am right we will enjoy his contributions for years to come.

    The kid can clearly play, but I hope he doesn't become one of those utility types who is good at a lot of things but not elite in any respect. The next couple of years of development are going to be crucial.

    I'm not convinced he's a key forward and he's not big or strong enough to be a full time ruckman. That probably leaves him as a midfielder, possibly on the wing where he could be a huge asset if his two way running is good enough to see him fill a hole at one end and then provide a target at the other.

    • AFLW REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      We’re back! That was fun. The Mighty Dees’ Season 10 campaign is off toa flying start with a commanding 48-point winover the Western Bulldogs, retaining the Hampson-Hardeman Cup in style. After a hard-fought first half in slippery conditions, the Dees came out in the second half and showcased their trademark superior class, piling on four goals in the third termand never looked back.

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      The final score in Saturday's game against Hawthorn was almost identical to that from their last contest three months ago. Melbourne suffered comprehensive defeats in both games, but the similarities ended there.When they met in Round 9, the Demons were resurgent, seeking to redeem themselves after a lacklustre start to the season. They approached the game with vigour and dynamism, and were highly competitive for the first three quarters, during which they were at least on par with the Hawks. In the final term, they lapsed into error and were ultimately overrun, but the final result did not accurately reflect their effort and commitment throughout the match.

    • CASEY: Box Hill

      The Casey Demons ended the regular season on a positive note and gained substantial momentum leading into the finals when they knocked the Box Hill Hawks off the top of the VFL ladder in their final round clash at Casey Fields. More importantly, they moved out of a wild card position in the finals race and secured a week's rest as they leapfrogged up the ladder into fifth place with their decisive 23-point victory over the team that had been the dominant force in the competition for most of the season.

      The final game of the 2025 Season is finally upon us and the Demons may have an opportunity to spoil the Magpies Top 4 aspirations when they face them on Friday Night. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Hawthorn

      The Demons were sloppy all day and could not stop the run and carry of the fast moving Hawthorn as the Hawks cruised to an easy 36 point win. Is the season over yet?
