Had an impressive 2 marks for the 2022 finals series.

The most overrated player I’ve seen at the Melbourne Football club since Michael Newton.

[Gorgoroth 13,188]

No way in the world we get Young or Serong.

Does that make him a "unicorn"?

[Fanatique Demon 2,695]

Surely Freo and WCE will reassess and he’ll stay at Melbourne. But maybe then we won’t be afraid to drop him when he deserves it.  

[spirit of norm smith 16,651]

Originally it was 2x first rounders. But he’s value has dropped and he’s lost all sense and smarts in his game. “Captain fumbles”. In the air and on the ground. So much potential.  So very very disappointing.  I’ll feeling I’ll.
I’ll take whatever we can get. 
Freo 1st round 2022 and Freo future 2nd round 2023 for Jackson.

 

[Stiff Arm 4,419]

2nd rounder and steak knives?

[david_neitz_is_my_dad 4,084]

I said it weeks ago but he is plays like he doesnt care and its obvious

[dazzledavey36 55,983]

Brutal lol.

I thought he was horrible last week but tonight he was just a genuine liability. 

Thanks for helping us with the flag dogga.

Enjoy family time.

Jackson is a gun, and will be absolutely elite for the next 10 years. He is only 20 years old, and big players take longer to mature. This year was a wake up call to coaches, players and supporters. Next year will be different.

I would not change our list much at all, albeit, playing J.Smith and JVR up forward, and rewarding more Casey players for good games. 

Jackson is a lock for us.

Joel Myth 

[Jaded No More 68,976]

Is very clearly struggling with injuries. 
If he stays I will be delighted. If he leaves I’ll be absolutely furious.

i'll be disappointed more than furious

i think he's got the potential to be a unique player but having had a knee niggle for two of his three seasons in football is a clear concern

can't believe freo are likely to jettison three players in their semi-final side - acres, lobb, logue - to be able to bring him in 

[Devil In Disguise 2,278]

He looks like a player who has completely lost interest. I think he is gone.

[YesitwasaWin4theAges 6,779]

Thank you Jacko for the memories.

Get the picks in and get to work JT.

We need Talls who take clean pack grabs.

[picket fence 18,062]

Checked out long ago! Enjoy Freo, seriously OVERATED!

[Gorgoroth 13,188]

He is not overrated. He is a young kid that the media and our own supporters pumped up to stupid levels of expectation of a young ruckman.
He hasn’t been good for a while, but this kid has a lot of potential. In 5years time we will lament the fact he is no longer with us.

I truly hoped he would stay, and I don’t look forward to watching him play against us in the years to come.

Grundy will be a massive upgrade. Bring it on.

[rpfc 28,964]

He is a gun. 

But jeez he needs work on his marking form.

No chance we get 3 first round draft picks for a player that is such a poor mark of the football.

That’s a better deal than GWS got for Jeremy Cameron, and Jeremy Cameron is pretty much the best player in league football at the moment and a far more proven quantity than Jackson.

With relation to Lobb, he’s the sort of player we should he targeting. A genuine forward that can ably pinch hit in the ruck as opposed to a ruck that doesn’t have any forward craft such as Gawn and Jackson.

If they are going to pay him the price they have asked, you will have push for compensation.

Definitely has The Tim Taranto vibe about it. Strikingly similar both appear to have checked out!
