    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.

    • CASEY: Richmond

      The winds finally returned to Casey Fields for the Demons’ third home game of the VFL season, and its impact was immediate. After two opening rounds played in uncharacteristically fine conditions, the Anzac Day clash brought back the familiar gusty conditions that have been a feature of the region at this time of the year.
      Forced to kick into the breeze first, the slow-starting Demons faced a tricky opening against an enthusiastic young Tigers outfit. Casey responded by turning the contest into a scramble, pressuring Richmond into errors and missed targets. The tactic proved crucial, keeping the game tight for three and a half quarters before the Demons pulled away with the autumn wind at their backs.

    • REPORT: Richmond

      It seemed as if the whole purpose of the Anzac Eve clash at the MCG between the Demons and the Tigers was building toward that single, unforgettable moment when Kozzie Pickett soared above Campbell Gray and all but fittingly etched his name onto the face of the 2026 Frank ‘Checker’ Hughes Medal.

    • GAMEDAY: Richmond

      It's Game Day on Friday night. ANZAC Eve. The big stage at the ‘G. The Demons return to the spotlight for one of our most significant nights on the football calendar, taking on the Tigers in a clash that always carries extra weight given the gravity of occasion of the commemoration of the ANZAC Spirit. Under the lights, in front of a packed house, this is where moments are made. Can the Dees rise to the occasion and deliver on the big stage, or will Richmond spoil the night? All the build-up, discussion, and in-game reactions here. Go Dees.
