Farewell Luke Jackson


Lucifers Hero

Recommended Posts

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.

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.

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.

Grundy only took one mark.  *ducks for cover

 

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.

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

    DARK NIGHT by George On The Outer

    A pleasant, balmy Brisbane evening with perfect conditions for football turned into a bleak, dark night in more ways than one for the Demons on Friday night at the Gabba. Coming up against a Lions outfit which had been truly cut to shreds by Port Adelaide the previous week, with the Demons having accounted for the Dogs emphatically, it was reasonable for the droves of Melbourne supporters to expect to witness more pain being inflicted as payback for their loss to the same team in the previo

    DEES UNLEASHED by George On The Outer

    On a balmy Saturday night in March, the Demons of 2023 were unleashed and, in a show of strength, they sent the Bulldogs packing to their kennel to lick their wounds after their resounding 50-point opening round victory.   Things looked ominous early for the Demons with Bayley Fritsch, Steven May, Jack Viney and Christian Salem from their best 23 unavailable, compounded by the threat of facing up to a four man tall forward line of Darcy, Lobb, Ugle-Hagan and Naughton.     However
