Three guys in a house together didn't seem to work very well

Only a premiership and being trained by the Brayshaws  beforehand and no public trouble at the house  betw Toby Kossie and Jacko. 

You are blaming or alluding to  the house mix as the potential culprit for Jacko wanting to go back home!! 

Jacko seriously is the type of guy that missed his family and his mates. This mix will be interesting and also whether he stays at his house in the suburbs with mates or alone!!

    Mockingly (probably unintentionally because I doubt he thought about how it would look) in a Dockers jumper.

    Could have posted any number of photos of him with the Premiership cup when he thanked the club with his one line.

    I thank him for his time but do not wish him well. He is now the enemy and whilst I will not boo him I do hope he gets roughed up a bit and that he earns every dollar he gets.

    Exactly. He should 1000% have posted a more thoughtful farewell message to the Dees, his teammates, coaches and just a importantly the fans. And he should have done that by proudly posting a photo of himself as a Demon and not in Dockers guernsey.

    Have a look at Lochie Hunter's farewell message in his thread and take a look at Jackson's. Which is the more classy/thankful/appreciative one. Or take a look at Weids farewell. He didn't even get to play in a flag and was effusive in his thanks to the club.

    Jackson took the money and ran. I'll always be thankful for those few minutes in the third but in the end he didn't look after us at all. He wanted to go home and that's fine but he wouldn't even engage with the club that could have given us (cliub, teammates and fans) something in return. I don't wish his career well.

    If he had posted a long farewell message posters would have complained that it was insincere

    People comparing Jackson goodbye message who lets remember only spent 3 years at the footy club compared to Hunter (10 years at the doggies) and Weideman (7 years at the Dees)

    I think people can work out where I'm going with this.

    I'm  thinking more of a lack of example, which would have crossed the table of the Club players minders, ie the ex Freo/ Richmond player, albeit too late of course.

    It'll be interesting in how Fremantle decide to use Jackson next year and how the media will judge his performances considering he probably doesn't have the tank to ruck or play as a wingman/midfielder for a full match yet.

    He certainly still has a lot of work to do to if they plan to play him forward for a percentage of a game. There are some good goals here but easily a third of them are from the goal square courtesy of an easy handpass.

    If that's the case then this thread will be bumped heaps of times. He will play many poor games amongst the odd good one.

    Ah yes but people will say a average game he plays is poor. and a good game average etc

    I don’t get the continual  butt hurt, yes he left, players do, we had some come to us that way and we have lost some that way. 
    The “goodbye” message is laughable, yes it was short but so was his excited to be at Freo part. Not all want to write a bloody essay.

    Well said. He’s 21, and not the brightest bulb in Aisle 39 at Bunnings.

    Leave him be; we’re more than fine without him.

    Doubtless true,  and those posters may have been wrong.  But being wrong about the sincerity of his message is not even a possibilty if he didn't make the appropriate farewell message in the first place.

    True but the people complaining about his lack of a farewell are the same people who are resentful towards him anyways. They’ll never be happy

    People get caught up in this stuff. End of the day he voted with his feet and has gone back to play for his home town team. I don’t need to hear his platitudes about how much he loves the MFC, how brilliant we are, how heart wrenching the decision was. It’s just word salad to placate a section of our fanbase who can’t be pleased anyways. 

    I’ve moved on. I suggest everyone else does as well

    • REPORT: Brisbane

      “Max Gawn has been the heart and soul of the Dees for years now, but this recent recovery from a terrible start has been driven by him. He was everywhere again, and with the game in the balance, he took several key marks to keep the ball in the Dees forward half.” - The Monday Knee Jerk Reaction: Round Ten Of course, it wasn’t the efforts of one man that caused this monumental upset, but rather the work of the coach and his assistants and the other 22 players who took the ground, notably the likes of Jake Melksham, Christian Petracca, Clayton Oliver and Kozzie Pickett but Max has been magnificent in taking ownership of his team and its welfare under the fire of a calamitous 0-5 start to the season. On Sunday, he provided the leadership that was needed to face up to the reigning premier and top of the ladder Brisbane Lions on their home turf and to prevail after a slow start, during which the hosts led by as much as 24 points in the second quarter. Titus O’Reily is normally comedic in his descriptions of the football but this time, he was being deadly serious. The Demons have come from a long way back and, although they still sit in the bottom third of the AFL pack, there’s a light at the end of the tunnel as they look to drive home the momentum inspired in the past four or five weeks by Max the Magnificent who was under such great pressure in those dark, early days of the season.

    • CASEY: Southport

      The Southport Sharks came to Casey. They saw and they conquered a team with 16 AFL-listed players who, for the most part, wasted their time on the ground and failed to earn their keep. For the first half, the Sharks were kept in the game by the Demons’ poor use of the football, it’s disposal getting worse the closer the team got to its own goal and moreover, it got worse as the game progressed. Make no mistake, Casey was far and away the better team in the first half, it was winning the ruck duels through Tom Campbell’s solid performance but it was the scoreboard that told the story.

    • PREGAME: Sydney

      Just a game and percentage outside the Top 8, the Demons return to Melbourne to face the Sydney Swans at the MCG, with a golden opportunity to build on the momentum from toppling the reigning premiers on their own turf. Who comes in, and who makes way?
