    I dont know how anyone would really know how or if the player made any impact on the trade details.

     

    I'm not sure either tbh

    Last year Cerra wanted to come to us (allegedly), but because we couldn't get the deal done went to Carlton instead. Apparently he didn't want Freo to get dudded in a trade with us (as we didn't have the capital to satisfy the dockers)

    My hope is Luke doesn't push for the move if Freo can't come up with a reasonable trade. He's getting offered a lot of cash though (allegedly) so there a big incentive there for him to insist on moving

    What can we get from Freo in return if Jackson leaves?

    As a starting point is has to be 2 first round picks, with 1 inside the top 5. 

    Or a 1st rounder + a player. Could we go for Rory Lobb and a top 10 pick?

    What happens if Freo can't satisfy the trade - given luke is not contracted to us?

    Yeah I know what you mean mate. 

    Yep I am disappointed. The club simply has to get the best deal possible and that has to be 2 First round picks a s a minimum.

    I was dirty on Vines. That was a clear handball over the top which would have allowed Jacko to run in and steady up for a goal.

    If that’s true that players are not regarding him as a full team mate, we have a big problem. This could be derailing our season.

    Hopefully they go hard and try to get a player and a pick.

     he's only gone if Freo can come up with the trade goods

    If you mean he's gone to WCE...that I could believe

    This won't be a popular opinion but if the club believes that then I wouldn't play him. I know right now we probably don't have a choice but for me, he could ay at Casey so we can get the 18 blokes on the field 100% commited to winning. 

    IMO, Brayshaws not going anywhere.

    Easy fix, bring in someone who does want to play with us next year

    That's the problem with recruiting Western Australian players, the go home factor is stronger than other states

    It's going to hurt our premiership chances next year because Jackson helps Gawn's game. Double whammy!

    What on earth does this mean?

    "offically"???

    You need to post better than this and context.
    To Whom, is it signed?  Is he leaving Australia,.....?

    If not then its absolutely not official.

    Is it subject to a suitable trade etc.?

    Please advise better than the above.

    Like who?

    As part of any Jacko deal, I am pretty sure Meek will be included, if we want him and then they will probably look to rookie another.

    • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

      The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?

      The Demons lacked some polish but showed a lot of heart and took it right up to the Bulldogs in an attempt to spoil their finals hopes ultimately going down by a goal at the MCG.
