Discussion on recent allegations about the use of illicit drugs in football is forbidden
  • IMPORTANT: PLEASE READ BEFORE POSTING

    Posting unsubstantiated rumours on this website is strictly forbidden.

    Demonland has made the difficult decision to not permit this platform to be used to discuss & debate the off-field issues relating to the Melbourne Football Club including matters currently being litigated between the Club & former Board members, board elections, the issue of illicit drugs in footy, the culture at the club & the personal issues & allegations against some of our players & officials ...

    We do not take these issues & this decision lightly & of course we believe that these serious matters affecting the club we love & are so passionate about are worthy of discussion & debate & I wish we could provide a place where these matters can be discussed in a civil & respectful manner.

    However these discussions unfortunately invariably devolve into areas that may be defamatory, libelous, spread unsubstantiated rumours & can effect the mental health of those involved. Even discussion & debate of known facts or media reports can lead to finger pointing, blame & personal attacks.

    The repercussion is that these discussions can open this website, it’s owners & it’s users to legal action & may result in this website being forced to shutdown.

    Our moderating team are all volunteers & cannot moderate the forum 24/7 & as a consequence problematic content that contravenes our rules & standards may go unnoticed for some time before it can be removed.

No.

I think Jackson long term will be a talent. I just don't see him being the generational talent that everyone sees.

Career so far he's rated below average for hitouts won, hitouts to advantage, clearances and. 

I think he has poor forward craft and gets lost quiet easily when resting down there which is where he'll spend time when rotating with Sean Darcy.

Ashcroft, Sheezel, Cadman Wardlaw I see being more natural footballers with more upside to be genuine game breakers.

 

I agree with this comment.

A generational talent is someone in the mould of Wayne Carey, Gary Ablett (senior or junior), Greg Williams, Chris Judd or Tony Lockett.

In Carey’s 21st year (same age as LJ) he kicked 46 goals and won North’s best and fairest. In the following year Carey took the AFL by storm by kicking 63 goals and being appointed the All Australian captain. 

Meanwhile Jackson is still finding his way in this league and finished a generous 13th in the B&F.

Do people honestly think that Jackson is going to obtain the lengthy achievements that the other players mentioned above did? Is he really going to be a generational talent?

But hang on. I didn't say LJ was necessarily a generational talent. Dazzle said he wasn't better than any of the draft crop this year. Who. Have. Never. Played. A. Game. Of. AFL. Football.

Luke Jackson was instrumental in the greatest burst of AFL football perhaps ever witnessed.

I tend to agree. With gen talent you see flashes of brilliance throughout the early years that show us they know how to play the game. Once their body matures and they get fitter, those flashes are seen more consistently. Think of Oliver’s first season - we knew we had something special. 
 

LJ is a good footballer but I’m starting to think he is not as great as we all thought. Every player has a great game now and then. LJs just happened to coincide to be in the third quarter of a GF. Just like Weeds 2018 finals performance.

But others have certainly coined the term  “generational talent” with Jackson. That’s fair enough but I think it’s too early   to make the assumption.

As for his GF performance, yes he played a very good last few minutes of the third quarter. No debate there.

I suggest you re-watch it, and tell us which plays Jackson was instrumental in.

He was involved in some, but it was primarily due to our mids winning contested possession, and the Dogs players fumbling or falling over at inopportune times.

And even if he was largely instrumental, 15 minutes isn't a good measurement of a players quality. Zaine Cordy had an impactful 2016 GF, and hasn't amounted to much.

Hypothetical trade if Hawks get Bowes and pick 7 from Suns.

Hawks: In: 13, Meek.   Out: 7

Freo: In: Jackson.   Out: 13, Future 1st, Future 2nd (North), Meek

Dees: In: 7, Future 1st, Future 2nd (North) Out: Jackson

Are Freo giving up too much? I think Jackson is worth a lot, the future picks effectively the equivalent of a top 10 future pick.

Despite never having seen them play at AFL level and Jackson breaking the game open in a GF? We'll agree to disagree mate.

Think this actually gets overblown a fair bit..

I just have more faith the guys who I have mentioned will turn out to be more rounded and well equipped to have better careers then Jackson because they're natural footballers who do show qualities that are similar to a Petracca, Jeremy Cameron and a Selwood. Big statement yes, but I'm happy to stick by this.

And let's be honest, the early pick we get for Jackson, aren't we hoping they turn out to have better careers then him?

Right now, Jackson is more of an athlete then footballer. He has enormous potential which I can see no doubt and don't worry I'm still disappointed to lose him, but all I see is another Mark Blicavs type who's handy plugging in holes in the ruck and burst in the midfield.

Also think where the game is going there's a changing of guard in terms of the types of ruckman that are running around. These dudes are alot taller and physically bigger then I've ever seen before. Jacko being 199cm tall is almost considered on the short side now and just wonder if he'll ever be that dominant ruckman that everyone hopes for. 

Gawn, Grundy, Witts, English, Draper, McInerney These guys are example of the current ruckman running who are just taller and more physically bigger then Jacko is.

Jacko certainly has the athletic ability to keep up but wonder if this will the downside of being a shorter type ruckman.

We're trying to make the best out of a poor situation. We'd rather LJ was staying and playing for us. Now we're trying to get the best deal for the club.

I think it's impossible to make this call without having seen any of them play a game at AFL level. Give me the proven commodity with superstar upside over the man child key forward who dominated less developed opposition, the explosive kid who missed almost all of his draft year but averaged like 23(?) disposals a game when he did play and the crafty mid forward with athletisism concerns.

An interesting development.

Freo have included their F3rd pick with the Logue/Tucker trade to North.

This means they cannot trade out their F1st without getting a F3rd back in as a F1st can only be trade if the club holds a pick in each of the F rounds..  They might get a F3rd back from GCS for the player(s) they want to trade in but not sure they have anything to offer GCS to start with.

It would be just like Bell to trade picks that means a fair deal can't be struck for LJ. 

They will just have to trade out Lobb or LJ goes to WCE!!! 

They have North and Carlton's F3rd.

Jesus the word 'superstar' gets abused far too easily on here..

When I think of superstar I think of Dusty, Bont, Oliver, Cripps of the world.

LJ hasn't showed anything remotely close to being potentially in the same calibre as these guys.

At 21 years old (which Jackson only just turned), these are the averages of those players.

Note that Grundy played mostly solo ruck, whilst Witts and English played only 7 games each that season (with English being pushed out by Tom Boyd and Jordan Roughead as the WB rucks).

image.png.5ae7e5b76640339d38acfde42bb51308.png

 

If we compare them with their age 20 years (which Jackson played 2022 as): 

image.png.f00e114fbdba7ae220893a7976d349ca.png

English played 2 games and Grundy played 15.

Gawn and perhaps English are the only players on that list coordinated enough to genuinely trouble a matured Jackson in marking contests. 8cm or so is fairly easy to defend if you’ve got positioning, leverage and athleticism.

A lot of them might trouble him in the ruck but once he hits full strength I don’t think being shorter hurts. Hawkins forward,  Nankervis, Mumford, you don’t need height for most ruck contests. And he keeps his leap it won’t be an issue at all.

Either way I expect him to be a top 3 ruck from ages 23-30+ if that’s how he gets used.

But it’s the Blicavs stuff that’s key. Blicavs this year went from Mr Fix it to an absolute weapon. He’s a beast at tagging powerful mids because he’s just so large. He provides another long kick option that keeps Jezza and Hawkins at home. And he can ruck from the midfield that means Stanley can sit wherever he wants.
 

He completely changes the basic maths on where you can use players. He’s worth more than any ruck aside from a dominant Gawn or Nic Nat. Every other ruck can be nullified by a half decent veteran.

If a team is a ball movement team Blicavs rucks and Stanley sits at CHB. If a team is a stoppage team then Blicavs tags the key mid. If a team is built on intercepts Blicavs becomes the long kick target away from the intercept defenders. His impact on games massively outweighs his pure talent.

Are Max and Grundy (at his peak) superstars? How's he tracking comapared to those guys at the same age, just so we're comparing apples to apples and not ruckmen to midfielders.

To be more reasonable, how's he going compared to other dominant key position players at the same age? Of the current crop, I reckon most people who know what they're talking about would take Jackson over any other player in the comp, other than maybe Sam De Koning and Max King. 

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder I guess, but I think many of our fans have been blinded by this year where his performance was clearly hampered by injury.

Interesting article, not just on Jackson but using various data sets what the players are likely to produce compared to what the average player taken at the corresponding pick will produce. Jackson they have at pick 2 (same as kozzie) while both Oliver and Trac better than pick 1 - https://www.abc.net.au/news/2022-10-04/why-noah-anderson-is-the-most-valuable-player-in-the-afl/101498378

This is the key

Ruckmen rucking is irrelevant. It's what else they can do. No team can carry a second ruck who does not demand a top 22 position somewhere else on the ground

I don't think Dogga has found his best role (as opposed to position) within the Melbourne side. Is he best competing in the ruck contest, or roving around as a tall, competitive  mid or kicking goals deep? We all see his potential and upside, but we don't know how far that will extend. With maturity and experience he will find that role and hopefully become the star that people talk of.

That is what we are trading upon, not that he is comparable atm to Grundy, Carey,  Dusty or Gawn

    DEPTH CHARGE by Whispering Jack

    The jubilation on the coach’s face as he danced a celebratory jig by the playing bench after the final siren sounded to record his team’s four-point victory over the Demons when the teams last met, said it all.    On that rainy Friday night at the Adelaide Oval, Ken Hinkley’s young midfield secured much more than four points on offer. The victory over one of the big dogs of the competition after a succession of wins over some of its lesser lights gave his team respect and validation fo

    When they locked up the rooms for summer at the end of last year’s football season, the rooms gathered cobwebs, the atmosphere became dense and the place developed a sleepy feel.

    A FORK IN THE HAWK by George on the Outer

    For too long in the past, Demon fans became habitually sick and tired of watching the Hawks hand out thrashings to their side. But Melbourne’s empahtic 55-point win at the MCG on Saturday has truly put a fork in the Hawk and turned that history well and truly on its head. The Demons have now won nine of their last ten encounters with the other result, a draw.     And like a fork, it was the multi-pronged options that Melbourne had all across the ground.  It certainly helped that Hawthorn
