I'd doubt that a mother would seriously interrupt a son's career forcing change that is not fully necessary. He has an almost unlimited series of short and longer-term advantages staying with the Dees that can be measured by his inputs and potentials to date. My own thoughts are that Dogga will stay at the Dees, long-term. This is a shrinking world; distances are more than halved and for movement across the country, circumstances have never been better. He could have a weekly, monthly or extended visit 'home' and 'return' provided in his contract, if necessary, or  some other arrangement, and still reach the heights of Demon participation and potential, meeting family needs and footballing career continuity. His independence as a younger man making his way in the world are also supported.

LJ may want to go home, but he also doesn’t want to “leave” The MFC. he loves the place. 
i don’t think he has signed anything yet, but that is a gut feel only. 
I disagree with what GNF said vehemently. The Family have no problem with the MFC. 
At this stage i just hope LJ has a phenomenal Finals Series…..

She slips, she slops, she flips and she flops.

She's a slippity sloppity floop.

No, just does not want him to play for WC.

What is he 10 years old, if what you say about his Mum then the further away he is the better, I don't believe one word of your trash.

Gee I hope the media whispers are correct.  It would be a huge fillip for our team if the big ‘Spaniel’ announced an extension  during the finals series.

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

Didn't come from a manager, reckon it came from the former players group chat via a former captain turned beer baron...

When Jackson resigns for two year do we get a refund on all our posts. 

Luke is just waiting for this thread to get to 200 pages.

How do you refund time lost reading the speculations?

[AshleyH30 566]

If it is true that he might stay, it would be purely on the basis that Freo don't have the necessary trade capital to meet our requirements (yet). If Jackson is adamant that he doesn't want to go to West Coast, than he may have discussed staying with us with both clubs and his manager to give Freo enough time to get the necessary capital for a trade in the future.

That said, I still think he'll be traded this year and have resigned to the fact. I'm also looking forward to seeing what we receive in return as it may prolong our time at the top of the AFL.

[Lord Travis 10,457]

Hope the club announces he's extending his contract during the week off we'll have before the prelim!

[deeTRACted 406]

Imagine if these rumours are true and they announce it at the end of the open training session

[GCDee 3,191]

What a [censored] week it could be for Freo… lost their top 4 spot thanks to one almighty Carlton choke… their champion pings a hammy and won’t play in the elim… LJ says no dice and signs on… they will likely be bundled out of the finals in 3 days…

[daisycutter 29,305]

my 25% of hope just got a boost

c'mon luke, you know you want to do it. just re-sign.

She can big note herself all she likes if the board remains stable and club continues to be successful.

This thread is getting to be like the game day thread! As I see it, it’s 3/4 time and we’re 10 points down. Some think it’s already over but Binman thinks our loading will see us through (ie jacko stays) In the game itself,   his mum is apparantly  starring at CHB for the opposition … maybe cause in our panic we just keep dumping it long and high into the pocket ? Plus the pokémon cards are also having a field day at half forward. But there’s Still a qtr to go …. I think with a few changes the dees can still pull it off!!

She can big note herself for all I care the moment she gets us a home base.

Right now, many are very impatient.

This comment reminds me of the rigmarole around here with respect to Jesse Hogan leaving and then subsequently signing a 2 year contract extension at the dees (2016?). The posts where then updated to along the lines of "Hogan's going.....in 730 days"
