Nothing on Gus mate. I think it all depends on LJ

But seriously why would you make a call before the Season is done?

Both Players could be dual Premiership 

That would make things very different. 
I wouldn’t be signing anything yet….

Agree. If they are leaving, we wont hear till after our last game. If they are staying, we may not hear till after the last game.

[BenF 56]

So genuinely what do you lads reckon? Should he stay or should he go?

Having read that article, I am more convinced than ever that being an AFL journalist is easier than ever. The bloke spent an entire page writing a kids fantasy novel and offered no solution on how Freo get the deal done, despite his headline. What a complete waste of 5 minutes reading that dribble. 

The AFL issues trade edicts  whilst paying gossip columnists (afl.com au) to trade trashy rumours about who is going where.

Well in the words of Joe Strummer: If he leaves there will be trouble but if he stays there will be double..

My opinion he should stay.

But he's Gawn.

Actually it was Mick Jones that wrote and sang Should I Stay Or Should I Go.

If we can get a best 22 player and first round picks I’d be doing the deal without a second thought. He’s a below average player now and I doubt he’ll ever be a top 10 in the league player that Freo will pay him as. Let’s use the hype to improve our list again.

Dont agree LT. I think the kid is gonna be a star.

Its obvious his mind is not on the job atm and he has mentally checked out.

Say Lar Vee

Jackson needs good advice, currently disrupting team with constant talk and frankly dont take him next week to freo game.

Happy for him to look elsewhere

There is one in every crowd and I am not talking about Jackson

[adonski 10,988]

Freo shredding every email, smashing every phone and dissolving every shred of evidence that they've ever talked to Jackson's management

[Blue-and-red 91]

Time to tell him we’re seeking a trade, he’s not worth it

I thought Jackson was crap tonight. No-where near the money they are quoting. Good luck to them.

You never checked out of a job when you’ve got a better offer somewhere else?

Any chance  we could’ve played the safe option and chose the local boy in Hayden Young who is tracking towards being clearly one of the best players of that 2019 draft?

No big trades like this end up really hurting side they leave.

at the end of the day we are going to get a good deal for a kid who "could" be a gun.  he had a big part in getting us a flag, and this trade could be a big part in our next!
