Really ? so if he said tomorrow he wants out it doesn't change the dynamic - I think it has to - how much who knows

I'm hearing positive things about Dogga staying for a couple of years

Thanks Danny.

I think 2 years for Jackson and Brayshaw make sense. Hopefully we have more flags in that time and Dogga's value will have increased and Gus's won't decrease.

We'll have a clearer picture of succession, if necessary, by then. And they'll have more flags.

Now that English is signed for 2 years, I can't see LJ signing for anymore than that (which is what i think he will do), in 2 years time those two will be the big story again around going back west, and by then NicNat will be finished but WC might be on the up again.

These days I think the players just accept it.

2 years is the best we can hope for I'd say. Happy to take it.

well if it's to be only 2 years we may as well keep this thread running for at least 2 more years

omg

He remains close with Trent, his parents are happy with his welfare at the club, he wants to repay the draft faith and the decision to give him an extended break in Perth pre-season, the offer is as flexible as he needs it to be, he wants to continue learning from Max and he generally isn't motivated by money or stardom.

I'm assuming this is all guess work. He may well be close friends with Trent, but his closest circle of friends are in Perth. Rivers returned to Melbourne after the GF to be with his girlfriend. Jackson hung out in Perth with his mates.

He really doesn't strike me as someone holding out for cash.

This is some performance. 

His role as a number 1 ruckman tonight has been nothing short of super tonight.

Gets rag dolled at times during ba ups but that's a non issue for me considering how young he is against a much bigger opponent.

Just goes to show how much we need to try and keep him. He is a superstar at 20. 


He seems happy. The crowd gave him so much love. Goody was beaming when he came off and Jackson was smiling from ear to ear. 
If he leaves I’m comfortable that we’ve done our best by him and I’ll always thank him for that third quarter… 

He was sensational. If he stays then fantastic, and if he leaves he’s going to leave on an astronomical contract offer that will mean we get a LOT in return.

Imagine if we took Lachie Ash or Dylan Stephens and Jackson went somewhere else? We would be furious.

Meggs was in a corporate box tonight with mostly WA supporters.  The Weagles supporters are a mostly disinterested lot in 2022 but the Freo ones are convinced they are getting Dogga and Gus (though they couldn’t recall his name)…

Luke, the force is strong with this one…what a game!  


He’s worth keeping simply for his celebrations, brilliant.

Keeping him long term just got a lot harder...   But short term may be real.  His comments post game about being surrounded by Trac, Oliver and Viney in the ruck made me think that he has to be aware of what a good thing he's been gifted.

Dominant display.

Yeah, nah, let’s get some picks for him.

  • GAMEDAY: Collingwood

    It's Game Day or has everyone given up. Maybe it is because a prime time Friday game is so rare ... double checks today is Friday ... Come on DL'ers support the team one last time for the year!

  • AFLW PREVIEW: St. Kilda

    The Demons return to Casey Fields (aka the Field of Dreams) this Saturday to host the Saints in Round 2. If you’re feeling lucky, head down the Monash for some family-friendly footy—you might even walk away a winner. The first 5,000 adults through the gate will receive an entry into the $10,000 helicopter ball drop. With Casey’s infamous wind, what could possibly go wrong? Closest ball to the pin wins. So spread the word, get down there—and good luck!

  • PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Way back in March we contemplated the possibility of a Demon resurgence after Simon Goodwin’s summer of love. Many issues at the club had seemingly been addressed, key players were returning from injury and a brand new day was about to dawn. We imagined the coach pulling a rabbit out of a hat. The team would roar up the charts, push aside every opponent and make its way to a Grand Final ending in ultimate triumph with Goody and Max holding the premiership cup aloft under a shower of red and blue ticker tape.

  • 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.
