Guess his mum flip flops too?

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, orย  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.ย

LJ may want to go home, but he also doesnโ€™t want to โ€œleaveโ€ The MFC. he loves the place.ย 
i donโ€™t think he has signed anything yet, but that is a gut feel only.ย 
I disagree with what GNF said vehemently. The Family have no problem with the MFC.ย 
At this stage i just hope LJ has a phenomenal Finals Seriesโ€ฆ..

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. ย It would be a huge fillip for our team if the big โ€˜Spanielโ€™ announced an extension ย 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...

Indeed oldfart perfect scenario in my view

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

How do you refund time lost reading the speculations?


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.

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

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

What a [censored] week it could be for Freoโ€ฆ lost their top 4 spot thanks to one almighty Carlton chokeโ€ฆ their champion pings a hammy and wonโ€™t play in the elimโ€ฆ LJ says no dice and signs onโ€ฆ they will likely be bundled out of the finals in 3 daysโ€ฆ

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.ย

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

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

Right now, many are very impatient.

Lots of yous seem to know a heap about Mrs. Jackson's private life.ย

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"ย ย

  • PREVIEW: Fremantle

    The dominant storyline coming out of Round One for Saturday Nightโ€™s clash at Optus Stadium centres on the influence of the big men. The spotlight naturally falls on two elite ruckmen who, five years ago, shared the stage in Melbourneโ€™s memorable premiership triumph.

  • NON-MFC: Round 02

    The compromised AFL fixture will get another test this week with the first lot of teams getting a bye after only two matches. Despite this Round 2 starts off with two cracking games as the Hawks host the Swans at the G on Thursday Night and then on Friday Night the Crows host the Bulldogs at Adelaide Oval. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

  • THE STATS FILES: St. Kilda

    As part of the effort to trim the runtime of the regular podcast, weโ€™ve been looking at which segments could be reshaped without losing what makes them valuable. One segment that naturally came into focus was Binmanโ€™s Stats Files. Not because it isnโ€™t important; quite the opposite. Itโ€™s become such a substantial and much-loved part of the show that it deserves a little room to breathe.

    After a stunning victory over the Saints in the first round of the Season the Demons head over to Perth to take on the Dockers who choked in their first match against the Cats. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • REPORT: St. Kilda

    One of the big stories of the AFL off-season was the spending spree of Melbourneโ€™s Round 1 opponent, St Kilda. They splashed out heavily, first to retain Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera - the hero of last yearโ€™s epic come-from-behind miracle victory -turning him into a $2 million man. They then effectively took out an expensive overdraft to recruit a string of expensive players from other clubs. It was a risky investment strategy and, although itโ€™s still early days, it certainly failed to pay off in Sundayโ€™s season opener, with much of the glitter turning to foolโ€™s gold.

  • POSTGAME: St. Kilda

    Never in doubt!!! In Steven Kingโ€™s first game at the helm of the Melbourne Football Club, the Dees outlasted Saints in a wild, momentum-swinging thriller at the MCG, running out 13-point winners.
