Farewell Luke Jackson

[Grapeviney 9,717]

We once had a mate called dogga

Who turned out to be a list clogger

We wished him the best

Shipped him off west

And hoped his replacement wasn't such a flogger

Still a Premiership hero for mine. Won’t ever forget the 45 mins of joy he brought after 57 year winter. 
Homesick, still a kid - we did same with Jeff White. 
Hoping the return game is not like Jeff Farmer’s

Me too mate. I got no beef with him.

Just killing a few mins on a Thursday arvo, and there aren't too many other words that rhyme with 'dogga'

Nope, Amanda Seyfried

There once was a boy named Jackson,

That by 2022 went missing in action,

He headed back West because that’s what mummy thought best,

And from that I still can’t get no satisfaction

We used to have a player called Luke,

Who's natural talent isn't a fluke,

He helped us out to finally break the drought,

But to see him in purple makes me puke

From Dogga to Dog, 

A now Cockburn based f l0g

There once was a boy named Luke

who looked dopey without a tooth

He won us a flag

but his mum was a nag

So he went home to the purple puke

[Demonstone 22,485]

There once was a ruckman called Dogga

With a chopper the size of a logger

He could handle the axe

But was no good without Max

And his next club will be Wagga Wagga

Farewell Lukey Jack

We'll miss your ground ball attack

Though you're 6'9"

We swapped you for a Pie.."

 

(Apologies, Aunty Jack).

There once was a man named Luke

Whose departure made us all want to puke

The rumours were a distraction 

He was missing in action

If only he was more like Touk.

Layzie, your work inspired me (well I actually plagiarised your good work ‘cause I’m also lazy):

There once was a lad named Luke,

Whose talents were certainly no fluke

We asked him to stay

But he left anyway

His departure made us all want to puke.

Oi! Pretty close to mine from 17 hours ago! 🙃

Of the warriors on D’land, there are some,

Who take issue with young Jacko’s mum,

Family loyalty it seems, is seen as a weakness,

Their gnashing of teeth, and the onset of bleakness,

Say this transgression will haunt them for years to come.

Sorry mate, it seems I plagiarised two people, not just one. I'll share my royalties with both you and layzie.

I don’t think I’ve seen a MFC player not play for a Melbourne jumper as much (or as little) as Luke Jackson did in his final outing for the club on 9 September.

His half hearted marking contests in a high stakes final was something else.

If Paul Roos was still coach of Melbourne, Jackson wouldn’t have played the final few games of the year.

There was a young man from Fremantle

Left the Dees for reasons financial

No worries I reckon

We found a new weapon

Grundy’s impact will be much more substantial

[Grapeviney 9,717]

I went over to the Collingwood forum to see if they were writing poems about Grundy, but looks like Pies supporters prefer to express themselves using the visual medium.

This was from their ‘game-plan and tactics’ thread.

Collingwood supporters are still livid we gave them Woewodin so they take great delight that Dawes, Kennedy and LaBamba ranged from average pickups to down right disasters for us.

They're absolutely buggered if it rains by the looks of this, plan A out the window

There was a bloke named Luke Jackson 

Who was not a patch on  Ricky Jackson

One was small

The other was tall

And unfortunately wanted no ConTraction

Young luke he was feeling homesick

So went home to his fam double quick

What a terrible waste

No more flags will he taste

If only he found a homely Dees chick
