    Get the feeling he will be moving on or am I behind the times and this been stated.

    If he has family there and there's more money all the best.

    At least he helped us win a flag and I'm grateful to him for those 2 minutes of ecstacy in the middle.

    Big loss but as long as Kozzie stays and we are well compensated then what can you do?

    Heard from a reliable source the following: Luke Jackson’s family is pushing for him to move back to WA. Specifically, his mother, who wants him back in WA. Freo may not be able to get the deal done, but the family’s preference is for him to play for Freo and not West Coast. They are heavy in the ear of his manager. It seems the decision to head home is not entirely Luke’s. Take it or leave it. The source is pretty solid though

    Interesting as I think this is what @Grand New Flag also said earlier. wonder if the source is that same person.

    Yep, I will be looking for some apologies from some of our more aggressive DLs on this and the looming trade request from Tomlinson.

    Oh I think he will go as he should, but I don’t trust you or that you know ‘anyone’ and will remind people on here of that.

    Consider it ‘the consequences of your actions.’

    I don't discredit anyone but I'm not going to apologise or thank anyone when Jackson leaves. It will be a bad day enough as it is.

    To be honest, i have not heard this but Interesting audio coming out of the West from Gossage and the guys on 1116 this morning, stating that the needle might have shifted slightly and a 2 year deal at Dees now is not out of the question.

    Take it for what you want..

    Wowee would be some serious egg on some media types faces if this is true… some landers too

    It would make sense, giving Freo time to put a good trade package together. In the meantime Dees supporters would have to band together to find the most eligible 21-year-old bachelorettes in the city and throw them in front of Jacko

    Gary Lyon on SEN just said Jacko deal to Freo not done yet. Could possibly sign a 2 yr extension with us  

    This was from someone he knows in the industry but said he didn’t know and it wasn’t from the MFC  He was just passing it on  

    The intrigue continues.

    Third hand reporting - but SEN spoke of a report by Kim Hagdorn that Jackson is increasingly ‘likely’(?) to sign a 2 year deal with Melbourne. I couldn’t ascertain if this was on SEN WA and I wasn’t able to find anything further. 
     

    Apologies if I’ve skewed the wording or taken it out of context, I was multitasking as it came on. 
     

    I still think he’s likely gone.

    i hope he stays just for that very reason.. mind you.. I have been very adamant he is going and still am to be honest, all the while hoping he does not go. So I put my hand up. 

    But i have also been very strong on what gets the deal done and at a minimum what we want Freo cant give us.

    I am not sure who you think you are, do you own this site? Are you DL God? Just apologise and stop abusing me and other poster who have information you don't like.

    It’s because you spoke absolute BS about his mum. Met and spoken to the family on a few occasions and you as on previous occasions in many other threads you’re full of it

    Bloody Hell, just when I was reconciled to being excited by all the new stars we would get from our 8 picks in the top ten I once again have to recalibrate.

    Don't stress, it will be win-win for our club in the end, confident!

    It looks like Dogga wants to do the right thing by Melbourne and won't leave unless the deal if fair all around. I hope the club stick to their guns on this and don;t settle for an average trade. 2 high first rounders is the price

    Grundy, TDK viable options if he leaves but the best outcome is if he signs with us again. I've no doubt about that

    Gary Lyon on sen without mentioning sources said there might be a shift in the move to WA ... hopefully true but possibly managers leaking and trying to extract more from Freo and Eagles ... wouldn't be the 1st time

    There is still no compelling reason for  Jackson to go in my view

    The reality is there are compelling reasons for him to stay

    I really hope he does and I'm as sure as I can be that he will

    Try to Remember Jacko has said nothing and is starting to play some good footy

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      From the start, Melbourne’s performance against the Gold Coast Suns at Peoples First Stadium was nothing short of a massive botch up and it came down in the first instance to poor preparation. Rather than adequately preparing the team for battle against an opponent potentially on the skids after suffering three consecutive losses, the Demons looking anything but sharp and ready to play in the opening minutes of the game. By way of contrast, the Suns demonstrated a clear sense of purpose and will to win. From the very first bounce of the ball they were back to where they left off earlier in the season in Round Three when the teams met at the MCG. They ran rings around the Demons and finished the game off with a dominant six goal final term. This time, they produced another dominant quarter to start the game, restricting Melbourne to a solitary point to lead by six goals at the first break, by which time, the game was all but over.

    • CASEY: Gold Coast

      Coming off four consecutive victories and with a team filled with 17 AFL listed players, the Casey Demons took to their early morning encounter with the lowly Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium with the swagger of a team that thought a win was inevitable. They were smashing it for the first twenty minutes of the game after Tom Fullarton booted the first two goals but they then descended into an abyss of frustrating poor form and lackadaisical effort that saw the swagger and the early arrogance disappear by quarter time when their lead was overtaken by a more intense and committed opponent. The Suns continued to apply the pressure in the second quarter and got out to a three goal lead in mid term before the Demons fought back. A late goal to the home side before the half time bell saw them ten points up at the break and another surge in the third quarter saw them comfortably up with a 23 point lead at the final break.

    • POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

      The Demons did not come to play from the opening bounce and let the Gold Coast kick the first 5 goals of the match. They then outscored the Suns for the next 3 quarters but it was too little too late and their season is now effectively over.
