I still haven't given up hope that Luke Jackson will re-sign to the Demons for another 2 years.

He will then end up at West Coast and replace Nic-Nat.

Anyway, fingers crossed he can play in another Melbourne Demons Premiership first.

WC have pick 2 this year, which they probably wont have in the future.

Not sure if another 2 years is worth it. It's 2 more years development that will benefit WC or Freo. I think it best to cut the cord now so we can make longer term plans with the picks we'll get

Yep, signing for 2 means a possible circus again next year. Wouldnt say no but could be in too deep now.

There's more chance of Weid kicking 6 in the Grand Final than there is of Jackson signing another contract at MFC

AFL needs to introduce present-pick trading for future players.

Jackos appearance is good for a laugh at the end of the video. Still having fun at the club it seems.

Thanks for posting that - I saw it earlier: absolutely hilarious, we should be keeping him for his comedy value alone!


Dockers players now reaching out to LJ to check in on his welfare. What is the underlying motivation here in making it public on the radio? If he was genuinely interested in his welfare, he would have kept it quiet.

The only thing that really matters is can our footy department turn the likely loss of Jackson into a nett positive for the club.

I'd happily lose Jackson if it makes us more likely to win another flag or 2 in the near future.

It's all about the flags and nothing else.

Any chance Luke Jackson can produce a game tomorrow night befitting of his reputation and projected contract next year and beyond?

Lately, there's been a ton of 3 and 4 out of 10 games coming from the big number 6.

If he doesn't i say we trade him to Freo

Maybe we get Mark McVeigh to speak to him. I think he may have checked out already.

Could do what Norf have done to JHF and drop him :)

Actually I find that weird, his first game back in front of family and friends in Adelaide isnt going to happen.  He'd have to be on the way out surely..

If we were bottom 4 I'd say that's what we'd be doing.

No we wouldn't - if he is in the best 22 players - he plays

there's actually a better than even chance of that occurring next month.

I don't agree in the slightest on this. If players make a decision to leave during the season and there's nothing to play for then that's it. There's nothing to gain from it at all for anyone .It would be a high possiblity.

Well to the best of my knowledge he has yet to make a decision - at least officially

  • NON-MFC: Round 12

    Round 12 kicks off with the Brisbane hosting Essendon at the Gabba as the Lions aim to solidify their top-two position against an injury-hit Bombers side seeking to maintain momentum after a win over Richmond. On Friday night it's a blockbuster at the G as the Magpies look to extend their top of the table winning streak while the Hawks strive to bounce back from a couple of recent defeats and stay in contention for the Top 4. On Saturday the Suns, buoyed by 3 wins on the trot, face the Dockers in a clash crucial for both teams' aspirations this season. The Suns want to solidify their Top 4 standing whilst the Dockers will be desperate to break into the 8.

  • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

    The media has performed a complete reversal in its coverage of the Melbourne Football Club over the past month and a half. Having endured intense criticism from all quarters in the press, which continually identified new avenues for scrutiny of every aspect, both on and off the field, and prematurely speculated about the departures of coaches, players, officials, and various employees from a club that lost its first five matches and appeared out of finals contention, the narrative has suddenly shifted to one of unbridled optimism.  The Demons have won five of their last six matches, positioning themselves just one game (and a considerable amount of percentage) outside the top eight at the halfway mark of the season. They still trail the primary contenders and remain far from assured of a finals berth.

  • REPORT: Sydney

    A few weeks ago, I visited a fellow Melbourne Football Club supporter in hospital, and our conversation inevitably shifted from his health diagnosis to the well-being of our football team. Like him, Melbourne had faced challenges in recent months, but an intervention - in his case, surgery, and in the team's case, a change in game style - had brought about much improvement.  The team's professionals had altered its game style from a pedestrian and slow-moving approach, which yielded an average of merely 60 points for five winless games, to a faster and more direct style. This shift led to three consecutive wins and a strong competitive effort in the fourth game, albeit with a tired finish against Hawthorn, a strong premiership contender.  As we discussed our team's recent health improvement, I shared my observations on the changes within the team, including the refreshed style, the introduction of new young talent, such as rising stars Caleb Windsor, Harvey Langford, and Xavier Lindsay, and the rebranding of Kozzy Pickett from a small forward to a midfield machine who can still get among the goals. I also highlighted the dominance of captain Max Gawn in the ruck and the resurgence in form in a big way of midfield superstars Christian Petracca and Clayton Oliver.

    The Demons controlled the contest from the outset, though inaccurate kicking kept the Swans in the game until half time. But after the break, Melbourne put on the jets and blew Sydney away and the demolition job was complete.
