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

Gosh 100 more pages of conjecture have just been set in motion

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

It couldn't be too hard could it? 😝

We need a conga line of them.

Guess his mum flip flops too?

I wonder what happened to the idea of his parents moving over here

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. 

Edited by DemonOX


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.

Must have taken one look at the property prices and split.

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

Edited by BDA

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

Edited by Demons1858

 

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

  • POSTGAME: Essendon

    Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

  • GAMEDAY: Essendon

    It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?

  • PREVIEW: Essendon

    As the focus of the AFL moves exclusively to South Australia for Gather Round, the question is raised as to what are we going to get from the  Melbourne Football Club this weekend? Will it be a repeat of the slop fest of the last three weeks that have seen the team score a measly 174 points and concede 310 or will a return to the City of Churches and the scene where they performed at their best in 2024 act as a wakeup call and bring them out of their early season reverie?  Or will the sleepy Dees treat their fans to a reenactment of their lazy effort from the first Gather Round of two years ago when they allowed the Bombers to trample all over them on a soggy and wet Adelaide Oval? The two examples from above tell us how fickle form can be in football. Last year, a committed group of players turned up in Adelaide with a businesslike mindset. They had a plan, went in confidently and hard for the football and kicked winning scores against both home teams in a difficult environment for visitors. And they repeated that sort of effort later in the season when they played Essendon at the MCG.
