Luke Jackson - 2 marks in his last 3 games of footy.

How does a supremely talented forward/ruck go through an entire game of footy without taking a mark?

This result hurts my tipping comp but I'll take it!!!

It now looks like Freo have a danger game in their hands next week against NM....😂😂😂

The moron could have played for a big win at the G last night. But at least he gets to fly home to mummy tonight. 

There is a rumour his mum has asked Luke to ask his agent to ask the club if Jackson can sit out away games to enable him to spend 100% or his time in Perf.

The Freo boards are turning on LJ in a big way.  Young players with huge prices on their heads open themselves to unbelievable pressure and scrutiny.

(But their managers would never tell them that)

Nowhere to hide in WA.

Jackson against Saints: 0 goals 2 behinds 12 disposals 0 marks 8 hit outs 54 metres gained

Grundy against Dogs: 1 goal 1 behind 17 disposals 1 mark 242 metres gained

Freo have the dream draw going to 2023 first 5 games vs teams that didn’t play finals including the bottom 2 teams they should have been 5-0 to start the year

Exactly what I said last year. He would have been paid a bomb to stay at Melbourne under no pressure and go back to Freo for his superannuation in a few years time.

He may well struggle for some time. There is no question we have won with Grundy on the short term.

The Crows in round 4 & Suns in round 5 will challenge them

Unfortunately I can't see Norf (R2) or WCE (R3) getting over the line, even with how bad Freo looked today

Gonna break new ground here: Gonna sit back with a red and watch a replay of a not-Melbourne game! 🍷

It'll be a tough watch Tim. I suggest you watch the highlights. which will be brief.

Hope it’s not a good bottle of red then…

BIT unfair son..

As much as I have no great desire to see Luke Jackson do well at his new club, I do think that a sample of one game is a little small and way too early to be celebrating his demise.

  • PREVIEW: Carlton

    Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.

  • REPORT: North Melbourne

    I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

  • CASEY: Werribee

    The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

    The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

    The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
