When the Dogga leaves

When Peter Bell speaks

When I'm feeling sad

I simply remember the Ed Langdon trade

And then I don't feel so bad

And in retrospect, I also feel similar about the trade we did with Freo with Jesse Hogan effecticely for premiership full back Steve May (and possibly another first rounder we turned into Dogga or Kossie?).

We got May and Sparrow for Hogan

I care, I want Freo to finish stone cold motherless last in 2023 so that in addition to another flag we get the number one draft pick! 🤪🤪🤪

plus the first round 2 pick

Not that I'm bitter or anything, but I wouldn't mind seeing this a few times in weekly line-up:

Freo

In: Corbett

Out: Jackson

The most important thing right now would be that Luke and his family have a Merry Christmas, that's all.

Freo finishing last would be nice - of course we'd all love to see that 

But it won't be happening. I was terribly disappointed Jackson left. I have now come to terms with his leaving and feel we will actually be a better and more consistent team with Grundy as his replacement

To me he is the biggest loser - he's walked away from a great team, a club with a huge amount of history and the opportunity to play alongside the best ruck and arguably the two best midfielders in the competition

I still feel he will regret his decision in due course    

[Deebauched 1,220]

Does anyone know for certain what dopey is getting paid by Freo and how long his contract?

I dont recall seeing anything in the press after they signed him up.

They've made some shocking decisions recently i hope their form continues.

Footywire has it listed as a 7 year deal

Contract Status: Out of contract at the end of 2029

Good luck to Jacko in Freo and I note other players who have given Freo (not just the team/ area)) the heavo...

7 years !!  Thats a huge risk for a player thats barely started his career. Surely he must be on light coin for the first few years and then loaded up later.

Oliver and Petracca didnt get that same deal until they had long finished their apprenticeship  in their mid twenties.

Luke who?

Whenever I get a new smartphone, without fail the screen gets scratched inside the first year of having it.

It might be the light in this waiting room but I can clearly see it while trying to read this thread.

If anyone has any fixes PM me. It's not a deep scratch but is noticeable.

I broke a shoelace last week :)

Can we deathride Dogga?

He'll always be a demon but fudge him now he's at Freo

Hate that, not the easiest thing to replace quickly.

FWIW my Asics Kayano runners came with the worst shoe laces that knotted up all the time, undoing them was hell so I replaced them. Not putting up with inferior shoe laces..

Why not…he is in Bali for Xmas with his good mate Trey Ruscoe, from the Pies. I guess family time can wait until the season starts. Real stench of Jessie Hogan about where this is all heading 🤪 welcome to the deathride, Dogga

For 10 years was a goto running shoe, but then found addidas ultraboost, never Nike or anything narrow.

yeah,  Jacko fed us alot of BS in the end. Kept the club in limbo all season and shot through at end of season after playing bog ordinary.

im certainly not in his camp like alot of other  posters here.

I’m genuinely staggered that Jackson’s in Bali at the moment.

Thought he’d be spending  every minute of every day with Mum and Dad to make up for lost time…

And I would say Melbourne supporters will show Luke Jackson the level of fondness that Dogs supporters show towards Jake Stringer.

I.e - not a great deal.
