How are all the panic merchants who assured us he was on the way out doing today?

    Haven’t overpaid. Gus has taken significantly less than what he would have gotten elsewhere. He got ALOT of interest and some really good offers.

    Great to hear. Good on him.

    Will never doubt you again Gus

    Look on the bright side. You have something to whinge about for the next 6 years.

    Probably more like 4 until he gets shipped off to the Tassie team

    As I saw it, Gus was THE poster boy for a selfless club. 3rd in a brownlow playing in the middle, then makes way fr the 3 demon bulls and plays both defensive wing and HBF. Excelling at both.  Losing Jackson may be the bigger loss on field in time but in terms of the culture and many intangibles Gus was irreplaceable. I’m stoked.

    No stress mate :) just playing the game. I know for a fact players sign and sometimes it’s not announced for an extended period, it’s all a timing and marketing game for clubs but the players know 

    So Jackson signed 3 months ago right?.... Right?

    This is unreal.

    I’ve always thought he had good character. Sincere apologies for starting to doubt it.

    This is a super important signature for the club, particularly from a cultural perspective. I’m absolutely stoked.

    Now, let’s bring this (premier)ship into port.

    As an aside, I think it’s the right decision for him too - he would’ve been crazy to leave this club at this stage of the club’s journey and at this point in his own career.

    He’ll become a club legend now.

    I don’t really understand what he said in the media a couple of days ago though - pretty bizarre given today’s fantastic announcement.

    A few years I thought his career may be over with his concussion problems, so it's quite miraculous he is where he is

    If the Gus wants a media profile.  He needs another premiership or three.   Let’s go get one

    Fantastic news. Just gives you a boost and I'm sure the players are rapt.

    Glad you're staying Gus, now I don't have to worry about you wearing an Essendon jumper.

    If he turns into another Dermott Brereton, I can do without the premierships.

    Stupid contract. 
     

    We’ll be paying him to podcast or play for someone else way before it’s done.

    One paced, can’t kick, can’t man up. What are we thinking?

    A panic move by the club because they’re sad LJ is leaving.

    Would have been absolutely shocked if Gus left - great to see him stick with the mighty Dees

    Coniglio has turned things around this year, but the Giants will lose young talent due to his contract.

    It’s a shame. He’s a great bloke too, good leader. 

    And if it was in isolation it might be ok but they have Whitfield, Kelly, Greene and Coniglio on $900+. Essentially, we pay less for Oliver, Petracca, May, and Gawn.

    He’s not in the 20 best back flankers according to the afl player ratings. He can’t kick. He can’t man up.

    He’s in AA contention via the media, many of whom happen to be close family friends. 

    He looked great against rubbish sides who kicked it to him. Not sure he’s had more than one coaches vote over the last two months.

    You're seriously trolling. What exactly do you mean by "he can't man up?" His defensive work has been impeccable this year. There have been numerous games where he's saved multiple goals with his intercept marking. 

    And your claim that he only performs against "rubbish sides" is just wrong. He was among our best in our win against Brisbane and in our losses to Collingwood and Geelong. He could've easily won the award on the Queen's Birthday.

    Your contempt for some of the players is simply too much.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      From the start, Melbourne’s performance against the Gold Coast Suns at Peoples First Stadium was nothing short of a massive botch up and it came down in the first instance to poor preparation. Rather than adequately preparing the team for battle against an opponent potentially on the skids after suffering three consecutive losses, the Demons looking anything but sharp and ready to play in the opening minutes of the game. By way of contrast, the Suns demonstrated a clear sense of purpose and will to win. From the very first bounce of the ball they were back to where they left off earlier in the season in Round Three when the teams met at the MCG. They ran rings around the Demons and finished the game off with a dominant six goal final term. This time, they produced another dominant quarter to start the game, restricting Melbourne to a solitary point to lead by six goals at the first break, by which time, the game was all but over.

    • CASEY: Gold Coast

      Coming off four consecutive victories and with a team filled with 17 AFL listed players, the Casey Demons took to their early morning encounter with the lowly Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium with the swagger of a team that thought a win was inevitable. They were smashing it for the first twenty minutes of the game after Tom Fullarton booted the first two goals but they then descended into an abyss of frustrating poor form and lackadaisical effort that saw the swagger and the early arrogance disappear by quarter time when their lead was overtaken by a more intense and committed opponent. The Suns continued to apply the pressure in the second quarter and got out to a three goal lead in mid term before the Demons fought back. A late goal to the home side before the half time bell saw them ten points up at the break and another surge in the third quarter saw them comfortably up with a 23 point lead at the final break.

      With their season all over bar the shouting the Demons head back on the road for the third week in a row as they return to Adelaide to take on the Crows. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

      The Demons did not come to play from the opening bounce and let the Gold Coast kick the first 5 goals of the match. They then outscored the Suns for the next 3 quarters but it was too little too late and their season is now effectively over.

      It's Game Day and the Demons are back on the road again and this may be the last roll of the dice to get their 2025 season back on track as they take on the Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium.
