i don't know. Maybe not but i think when a player has decided to move to a new team, if push comes to shove, he'll act in his new teams best interests rather than the old team. 

If Freo budge from their current offer (i highly doubt it) I'm pretty sure it won't be because of prompting from LJ or his camp

Around here that degree of insight makes you a rocket scientist .

It's starting to make me laugh

    We just need WC to make some sort of competitive bid for Jackson and Freo will up their offer.  The spectre of a WC flag with Jackson is too nightmarish for Freo to survive.

    This might upset a lot of people, but in my experience, very often fans hurt more than players at losses.

    Further, very often fans are more invested in their club, than some of the players.

    Yeah they are professionals  , but that is why it's a bit irritating when they so quickly forget the professional responsibility that comes with the opportunities and big  wages.

    Unless there is an exceptional reason a high draft pick on 750+K probably  "professionally " owes at least 5 years to his Club.

    Why would WC do that?

    F*^k with Freo's minds and make their state competitor pay a higher price.

    We also need a top 10 pick from Freeo! 
     

    yeah, nah, maybe, hopefully

    If we get a top 10 pick it'll be our own doing using the picks they give us.

    You don't know that so don't put it in print and lower the tone of this debate.

    And as for culture breaker - really.? He was a cog in a great team season in 2021. Lesser impact this year.

    Trac, Clarry, Viney et al........ - now there are  the culture leaders that everyone follows.

    He's still a kid barely 22. None of us know his personal priorities and should not take his ambition to return home personally IMO

    You’re projecting what I do and do not know. I respectfully request that you keep your own inane summations to yourself

    This man is not as it all seems….posters on here say ‘there, there’ and ‘thanks for your service’ but I’ll say one thing - he will never set foot in the club again

    Wrong! He will come back for premiership reunions, with good will, hugs and celebration..

    Assuming they agree with the scribes opinion of various lists.

    I thought Melbourne had an unbeatable Dynasty ..

    I guess they had no idea...much like the fantasies that were posted on here most of last year 

    WC will just do what gets them the  players they want.

    Lol

    Next minute….

     

    You’ll be the Guy on the Door telling LJ to

    “Go away, you’re not welcome here anymore”

    Who would know what your agenda is, but just stop now, don’t be so disrespectful to a Premiership Player who actually has a legitimate reason to go home, that has nothing to do with The MFC

    Do you know when did this legitimate reason arise ?  During the last 12 months?

    No I don’t Sue, but if what I have been told is true, it is purely a family matter

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.
