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

    • REPORT: Essendon

      What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

    • POSTGAME: Essendon

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

    • GAMEDAY: Essendon

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?
