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

    Humble pie for all the posters that stuck the boots into Gus.  Way OOT.

    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.

    • PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      With both sides precariously positioned ahead of the run home to the finals, only one team involved in Sunday’s clash at the Adelaide Oval between the Power and the Demons will remain a contender when it’s over.  On current form, that one team has to be Melbourne which narrowly missed out on defeating the competition’s power house Collingwood on King's Birthday and also recently overpowered both 2024 Grand Finalists. Conversely, Port Adelaide snapped out of a four-game losing streak with a win against the Giants in Canberra. Although they will be rejuvenated following that victory, their performances during that run of losses were sub par and resulted in some embarrassing blow out defeats.

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

    • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

      The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Collingwood

      Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.
