And let’s hope the contract was signed before said game

That would be nice

  • 21 disposals

  • 18 hit-outs
  • a team-best nine tackles
  • 89 per cent efficiency by foot
  • 10 contested possessions
  • six inside 50s.

He is only 20! 

Take a minute to absorb that performance.

On any other day that is a BOG performance.   That honour goes to Viney.

Nine tackles is the big one for me. That’s insane numbers for anyone let alone a young ruckmen.

Watching at the ground, thought be was a beast around the stoppage. 9 tackles, hard tackles too, plus the unquantifiable pressuring, scrapping, hunting. 

He's immense in the little things and serviceable in the key areas.

Has great link up hands. 

I now think we play him 70% ruck and Gawn out of the goal square, Fritch around the 40. 

I still believe 800k a season is way overs for him. More like 799k ATM.

 

I was sitting with a neutral supporting friend and he was continually singing Jackson's praises. What a footballer! What an athlete! He can do anything! Etc etc. This never got boring, and what he said was all true.

Maybe we're all on the wrong train... offer Gawn to Freo for three first rounders.....

Pretty sure some Wag on here said that by observing how Jackson played, would tell us whether he was going to sign a contract or not...

ps... I would have posted this if i had a poor game as well, or even a middling... none of these things would be instructive of anything.

And some on here said he is just a player. 
Get what you can for him. 
That foolish human is on ignore 

I got a good feeling LJ (Torana) will stick around

And I'm still waiting for the explanation of exactly what could be deduced from either a good or a poor performance.   Now we know it was good, the job should be easier so I'm expecting the Wag to tell us the contractual situation.

As the #1 ruckman he was unbelievable last night gave our midfield a different dynamic - what we may lose in some hitouts as he's not a big ruckman we gain so much in his ability to play as a genuine mid, his power out of the stoppages, his handball skills its like having a giant Clarrie in there!

Love Jacko, and would love him to stay, but if we want sustained success the conversation will be happening asking Jackson what he wants and if it’s to leave you look after #1 and get the best deal for the club moving forward Oscar Allen and a first round pick gets it done for me.

#1 pick Tom Scully leaving effectively got us Hogan who got us May

AA defender Frawley leaving gets us an extra first rounder seeing us nab Bradshaw and Trac

I dare say Trac, Gus and May were all vitally important in us winning the flag last year.  No player is bigger than the club, keep evolving and improving I have great faith in Jason Taylor making the right decisions

Trades can't been seen in isolation but part of a bigger plan.  Though I expect Taylor doesnt want to try and find a replacement quite yet.  :) 

Excellent job by Dogga, first quarter aside. I was very concerned at quarter time because he had been clearly beaten.  The next three quarters… sensational.

Plenty of evidence in this thread of posters who can't see that.

Surreal.

Just heard Brad Hardie on 6PR Perth say he had good information that LJ met with a group from the Dockers at a café in Modialloc on Saturday????

If I was looking to meet with LJ and try and entice him, then it sure wouldn’t be in a public forum like a Mordialloc cafe!

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
