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.

    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

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Adelaide

      Noffy, Hatchy and Randy lead Adelaide’s finals-hardened flock to IKON Park for a blockbuster semi-final against Kate Hore and Hanksy’s mighty Demons.  Adelaide has dropped four of its past five matches at this ground — let’s hope that trend holds.  But don’t expect charity — Doc Clarke brings an experienced, battle-worthy murder of Crows.

But in a repeat of Round 11, Brisbane proved too strong, too fit, and too relentless.  They brought their kicking boots: 9 goals, 2 points.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Brisbane

      Forget the haunting of Round 11 — we’ve got this. Melbourne returns to its inner-city fortress for its milestone 100th AFLW match, carrying a formidable 10–2 record at IKON Stadium. Brisbane’s record at the venue is more balanced: 4 wins, 4 losses and a draw.
