What an absolute bunch of fickle dullards Fremantle supporters are. They bought potential. For some reason, every time Fremantle pay a large price for a player, their supporters think that player is going to be a saviour and bring them instant success. Losers.

    The problem for Dogga is that with us he could play on potential for another 2 years and do some nice things occasionally. Freo feel like they paid a lot for him now, so they want results now. 

    I still think he’s gunna be a gun, but they won’t get consistent value until 2025.

    100%. With us he was on icing on top player, with them, he'll be expected to be a dominant player which right now, he isn't capable of. 

    I hope for Jacksons sake he thrives under pressure because he's going to have to. Could quickly become a whipping boy if he doesn't progress fast enough.

    I may be wrong but he looked a little overweight to me.

    Anyway, we will get him back in a couple of years, when they tire of him not living up to their expectations.

    Didn't catch the Essendon game, but saw that Weid kicked 2. Good on him!

    I have zero sympathy for him. This is what he wanted and so he must now put up with it.

    Freo FD are the actual ones to blame - they need a KPF and Jackson is not one. They should have encouraged LJ to sign for another 2 years with us and let him develop some more before recruiting a readymade.

    GOOD! He chose to leave!

    He certainly looks like he has gained some kg's around the waist.

    Can't believe he didn't take a mark. He will soon realise being the number 1 ruck is going to be tough work. Expectations will be high

    That’s an insane number of pages devoted to just two teams.  Why would you do it to yourself?!

    That's why they're who they are and they are exactly who we thought they were. 

    I don't love the word but they are indeed losers.

    Agree, that not a single mark is pretty concerning!

    Inside at marvel too.

    Which by the by looked awful.

    Jackson looked unfit to my eye - too heavy. If true, I'd be furious I I was a freo fan.

    You can excuse a scratchy debut.

    But if there is no injury, or similar (eg post season surgery that impacts on preseason preparation) there is no excuse for a boom recruit you've paid through the nose for and who you've gambled your future on (by giving up draft picks) not being in cherry ripe condition round one.

    Weed on the other hand looked in ripping nick.

    To be fair we only took 2 contested marks, both maxy.

    I couldn't believe that stat. I had ti check again coz it didn't seem right. The dogs had nine by way of comparison.

    Was thrilled for him. He looked very good and genuinely happy.

    A new start was the best thing for him.

    They were bagging him out the moment the trade happened.  That was my biggest worry, that they'd treat him the same way as they treated Hogan. They're vipers at Freo

    The Perth fish bowl can eat you up and spit you out pretty quick.. just ask Hogan.

    Not entirely sure Jackson and his family really took that into consideration when they were pressuring him to come back.

    • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

      Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

    • PREGAME: St. Kilda

      With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

      Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.

      The Dees ran another clinic for the second week in a row as they easily accounted for the Tigers in the lightning interrupted shortened match at Mars Stadium in Ballarat.

      Kozzy Pickett was the man of the match last week and has a vote lead over backup ruck Max Heath who didn't play this week and 5 votes over former Saint Jack Steele. Who gets the votes in this weeks shortened match win over the Tigers? Your votes please. 6, 5, 4, 3, 2 & 1.

    • GAMEDAY: Richmond

      It's Game Day and the 2026 AFL Premiership season is almost upon us as the Demons take to the field for their final practice match before the first ball is kicked in anger in 16 days time. What are you expecting to see from the Dees today as they take on the Tigers at Mars Stadium in Ballarat?
