LJ is contracted. He's going nowhere.

And if Dogga reckons going home to Freo is a good idea he should have a chat to Jesse Hogan.

Means a lot when Melbourne can choose not to trade him

The same Jesse Hogan who left the Dees for Freo while contracted?

Contracts aren’t iron clad for sure but both parties have to consent to release each other from their obligations. If one party holds firm nothing the other can legally do about it. If we decide not to trade then the player has to stay

Like when they put Tom McDonald up for trade last year when contracted? Or when they traded Jack Watts and Hogan when they also were contracted?

Not in anyway saying Jacko will leave because it's pretty obvious he wont. But to say that he won't leave because he's contracted is laughable.

It's the AFL landscape now days. Contracts are pretty much irrelevant now because we are seeing far too often now players have far too much power then the actual contract.

It's my biggest pet hate. I loved seeing the doggies last year refusing to trade a contracted Josh Dunkley.

Yes I am aware all that.

Perfect example is the Josh Dunkley case last year. See my post above. It's my biggest pet hate players having far too much pulling power over the actual contract obligation.

True but the trade suited both parties. We needed the pick for May, we had TMac and the Weid as out KPF options and there were concerns internally with Jesse's application and lifestyle.  And from Jesse's perspective he got to go home.

Yeah I stand corrected?


Interesting that the Herald Sun article says Cerra will go to Carlton and because of it, Jackson will consider going home over summer. Do these guys even proof read what they write?

I couldn’t open the HScum article but didn’t he fairly recently extend his contract? I wouldn’t even close to entertain trading out Dogga, the guy looks like he could be once in a gen sort of player. I know similar things were said about Hogan but it was a lot different with him, the talent was (still is) there but the mind and body just didn’t look like they were coping.

Jackson on the other hand looks like he’s got a good head on him, his body is holding up well, and FMD can he play or what!

Tell them to suck a fat one. 

I have a feeling that Cerra could break the fabric of the club if he comes to us. A few popular players will have to leave.

Get him a Melbourne girlfriend like Rivers has, quickly.

I have a feeling you don't know what you're talking about a lot of the time on here.

Good god I hope tomorrow finally puts an end to MFCSS once and for all

I was told of two young players who may be involved in trades (neither are locks in our best 22, no-one from the 2019 draft trio)

Take it with a grain of salt however, just passing on the message

Buy low, sell high...

I reckon a Dee's flag might break the fabric of reality first 

IF Freo are making a significant play for Jackson, it likely means they feel Cerra is going to nominate the Dees rather than Carlton

In fairness, Lyon has gone so a forward's life could be more palatable now than before.

    The Demons head back out on the road in Round 10 when they travel to Queensland to take on the reigning Premiers and the top of the table Lions who look very formidable. Can the Dees cause a massive upset? Who comes in and who goes out?

    Wayward kicking for goal, dump kicks inside 50 and some baffling umpiring all contributed to the Dees not getting out to an an early lead that may have impacted the result. At the end of the day the Demons were just not good enough and let the Hawks run away with their first win against the Demons in 7 years.

    It’s game day and the Demons are chasing a fourth straight win as we take on the high flying Hawks at the G. After decades of being tormented by the Hawks the Dees will be keen to extend their 7 year dominance over Hawthorn.

  • NON-MFC: Round 09

    Round 9 kicks off out west with the Dockers hosting a Collingwood side resting several stars. Fremantle need to make a statement on their home deck after some disappointing form on the road, while the Magpies will be keen to maintain their Top 2 position. Friday night sees a must-win clash between two sides desperate to stay in touch with the eight. St Kilda have shown glimpses while Carlton are clinging to relevance after a flat start to the season. Saturday’s twilight game at Marvel pits the Bombers against a struggling Sydney outfit. Essendon can’t afford another close match against a lower-ranked side, while the Swans risk sliding down the ladder even further. Up in Darwin, the fourth-placed Suns will look to extend their stay in the top four. The Bulldogs have hit their stride with three big wins on the trot and will be very keen to consolidate on their momentum. The always fiery Showdown looms as pivotal for both clubs. Adelaide are eyeing a spot in the Top 4 with a win, while Port Adelaide’s season could slip away if they drop another game and fall further behind the pack. Sunday begins with a yawn fest between Richmond and West Coast. The Tigers need to bank the points to stay clear of the bottom two, while the Eagles are still chasing their first win of the year. The Giants face one of the league’s toughest road trips as they travel to GMHBA Stadium to face the Cats. With GWS at risk of a third straight loss, Geelong will be eager to consolidate their position inside the eight and start their climb up the ladder. The round wraps up with the top-of-the-table Lions heading to Ninja Stadium to take on the second-last Roos. The Lions should easily take care of the struggling Roos who might be powerless against the best in the comp. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?
