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

    • 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.

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

      The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
