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.

    Death, taxes and good old mumbo Jumbo throwing his toys out of the cot again with a massive tantrum as always.

    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

    • GAMEDAY: Geelong

      It's Game Day, and reinforcements are finally arriving for the Demons—but will it be too little, too late? They're heading down the freeway to face a Cats side returning home to their fortress after two straight losses, desperate to reignite their own season. Can the Demons breathe new life into their campaign, or will it slip even further from their grasp?

    • PREVIEW: Geelong

      "It's officially time for some alarm bells. I'm concerned about the lack of impact from their best players." This comment about one of the teams contesting this Friday night’s game came earlier in the week from a so-called expert radio commentator by the name of Kane Cornes. He wasn’t referring to the Melbourne Football Club but rather, this week’s home side, Geelong.The Cats are purring along with 1 win and 2 defeats and a percentage of 126.2 (courtesy of a big win at GMHBA Stadium in Round 1 vs Fremantle) which is one win more than Melbourne and double the percentage so I guess that, in the case of the Demons, its not just alarm bells, but distress signals. But don’t rely on me. Listen to Cornes who said this week about Melbourne:- “They can’t run. If you can’t run at speed and get out of the contest then you’re in trouble.

    • NON-MFC: Round 04

      Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit.
      Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

    • CASEY: Gold Coast

      For a brief period of time in the early afternoon of yesterday, the Casey Demons occupied top place on the Smithy’s VFL table. This was only made possible by virtue of the fact that the team was the only one in this crazy competition to have played twice and it’s 1½ wins gave it an unassailable lead on the other 20 teams, some of who had yet to play a game.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      In my all-time nightmare game, the team is so ill-disciplined that it concedes its first two goals with the courtesy of not one, but two, fifty metre penalties while opening its own scoring with four behinds in a row and losing a talented youngster with good decision-making skills and a lethal left foot kick, subbed off in the first quarter with what looks like a bad knee injury.
