    Get the feeling he will be moving on or am I behind the times and this been stated.

    If he has family there and there's more money all the best.

    At least he helped us win a flag and I'm grateful to him for those 2 minutes of ecstacy in the middle.

    Big loss but as long as Kozzie stays and we are well compensated then what can you do?

    Heard from a reliable source the following: Luke Jackson’s family is pushing for him to move back to WA. Specifically, his mother, who wants him back in WA. Freo may not be able to get the deal done, but the family’s preference is for him to play for Freo and not West Coast. They are heavy in the ear of his manager. It seems the decision to head home is not entirely Luke’s. Take it or leave it. The source is pretty solid though

    Interesting as I think this is what @Grand New Flag also said earlier. wonder if the source is that same person.

    Yep, I will be looking for some apologies from some of our more aggressive DLs on this and the looming trade request from Tomlinson.

    Oh I think he will go as he should, but I don’t trust you or that you know ‘anyone’ and will remind people on here of that.

    Consider it ‘the consequences of your actions.’

    I don't discredit anyone but I'm not going to apologise or thank anyone when Jackson leaves. It will be a bad day enough as it is.

    To be honest, i have not heard this but Interesting audio coming out of the West from Gossage and the guys on 1116 this morning, stating that the needle might have shifted slightly and a 2 year deal at Dees now is not out of the question.

    Take it for what you want..

    It would make sense, giving Freo time to put a good trade package together. In the meantime Dees supporters would have to band together to find the most eligible 21-year-old bachelorettes in the city and throw them in front of Jacko

    Gary Lyon on SEN just said Jacko deal to Freo not done yet. Could possibly sign a 2 yr extension with us  

    This was from someone he knows in the industry but said he didn’t know and it wasn’t from the MFC  He was just passing it on  

    The intrigue continues.

    Third hand reporting - but SEN spoke of a report by Kim Hagdorn that Jackson is increasingly ‘likely’(?) to sign a 2 year deal with Melbourne. I couldn’t ascertain if this was on SEN WA and I wasn’t able to find anything further. 
     

    Apologies if I’ve skewed the wording or taken it out of context, I was multitasking as it came on. 
     

    I still think he’s likely gone.

    i hope he stays just for that very reason.. mind you.. I have been very adamant he is going and still am to be honest, all the while hoping he does not go. So I put my hand up. 

    But i have also been very strong on what gets the deal done and at a minimum what we want Freo cant give us.

    I am not sure who you think you are, do you own this site? Are you DL God? Just apologise and stop abusing me and other poster who have information you don't like.

    It’s because you spoke absolute BS about his mum. Met and spoken to the family on a few occasions and you as on previous occasions in many other threads you’re full of it

    Bloody Hell, just when I was reconciled to being excited by all the new stars we would get from our 8 picks in the top ten I once again have to recalibrate.

    Don't stress, it will be win-win for our club in the end, confident!

    It looks like Dogga wants to do the right thing by Melbourne and won't leave unless the deal if fair all around. I hope the club stick to their guns on this and don;t settle for an average trade. 2 high first rounders is the price

    Grundy, TDK viable options if he leaves but the best outcome is if he signs with us again. I've no doubt about that

    Gary Lyon on sen without mentioning sources said there might be a shift in the move to WA ... hopefully true but possibly managers leaking and trying to extract more from Freo and Eagles ... wouldn't be the 1st time

    There is still no compelling reason for  Jackson to go in my view

    The reality is there are compelling reasons for him to stay

    I really hope he does and I'm as sure as I can be that he will

    Try to Remember Jacko has said nothing and is starting to play some good footy

    • REPORT: Geelong

      I was disappointed to hear Goody say at his post match presser after the team’s 39 point defeat against Geelong that "we're getting high quality entry, just poor execution" because Melbourne’s problems extend far beyond that after its 0 - 4 start to the 2025 football season. There are clearly problems with poor execution, some of which were evident well before the current season and were in play when the Demons met the Cats in early May last year and beat them in a near top-of-the-table clash that saw both sides sitting comfortably in the top four after round eight. Since that game, the Demons’ performances have been positively Third World with only five wins in 19 games with a no longer majestic midfield and a dysfunctional forward line that has become too easy for opposing coaches to counter. This is an area of their game that is currently being played out as if they were all completely panic-stricken.

    • PREGAME: Essendon

      Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

    • NON-MFC: Round 04

      Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

    • POSTGAME: Geelong

      The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0–4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.
