Farewell Luke Jackson

Lucifers Hero
in Melbourne Demons

Other than not signing his extension yet there has been zero indications that he won't stay. He was looking quite happy training with the other WA recruits in the off season. His parents are even talking about re-locating here.

I think the days of fretting over players re contracting are over for a while

    Wonder if hes put talks on hold again? Worrying silence on this, don't want it to be a distraction all year.

    Nothing ever gets announced at Tennis time...

    If he has signed on the big announcement will happen when the footy kicks into gear from next week on.

    by the end of the 2022 season he could be a two-time premiership player

    He probably wants a holiday house near a beach to entertain his Demon team mates. Nothing wrong with that!

    So Jackson is the only player that belongs to a successful east coast side. My wifes second cousins mistress told me that can't be true.

    Long term deal has been put in front of him, talks on hold.

    Because I have no doubt West Coast are working on a god father offer for LJ. They need a star after Nic Nat retires in 2-3 years whilst Freo don't really need him as much due to their young star ruck in Sean Darcy.

    We'll be doing extremely well if we can get LJ on a long term deal. Extremely well.

    Unless he's seen at the airport in a WCE T-shirt, going over to Perth to "inspect the facilities", nothing to worry about.

    Unless his old man gets a job as a recruiter for WCE, nothing to worry about.

    Running back to Perth didn't work out too well for Jessie - I think Luke knows he is in a very special place right now

    The core of this premiership team can enjoy sustained success and get handsomely paid too along the way If they stick together

    Plenty of examples of characters that chased the $$$'s only to be disappointed - its not all about money IMO

    Mods, can we change 'underway' to 'NOT finalised' until they are? I keep coming in with an expectation of movement (and in the right direction!) 😏

    If Jack Darling retires which is looking that way, this will open up huge cap space for the Eagles.

    It might be that he sees himself living in Perth for the better part of his career as his priority rather than just money or playing in successful sides, and that his parents have moved over to help him through some issues.

    I'm predicting he'll sign a 2 year extension. Same as Clarry. They, or their managers, like to keep their options open.

    Having said that, hopefully the flag (or hopefully) 2 ... or more would make a difference. Like Jee-long and Richmond players who signed on for 'unders'.

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      Not long ago, the narrative surrounding Melbourne was steeped in pessimism. There was some concern among the pundits (and even some fans) that the club would arrive at the AFL’s Gather Round still winless, vulnerable to a familiar adversary in the Essendon Football Club, and facing significant scrutiny from an ever-critical media on a national stage. Things have changed.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      Steven King astutely identified the issues that had plagued the Melbourne Football Club over the past two and a half seasons when he auditioned for the newly created coaching role. The side that had claimed the 2021 premiership had become stodgy, slow-paced, and hesitant to take the initiative.

      The Demons put four quarters of hard contested, fast running and high pressure football to knock off the ladder leaders and early premiership contenders the Gold Suns by 20 points at the MCG on Easter Sunday.

    • PODCAST: Gold Coast

      I’ll be away for the next few weeks, so Binman will be holding the fort for our podcasts covering the Suns, Bombers and Lions matches. As a result, there will be no live podcasts during this period, and we won’t be taking calls or voicemails. Binman will still be dipping into this thread to select a few questions to answer, while also combining the long-form Stats Files podcast with the Demonland Podcast for these shows. Your questions and comments are a huge part of what makes the podcast work, so please post anything you’d like to ask or say below and we’ll do our best to give you a shout-out on the show. Please try to keep each post focused on one specific topic or player to make podcast preparation a little easier. If you have multiple topics you’d like to raise, please put them in separate posts.
