Despite the conventional wisdom on here Jackson was pretty good from what I saw of that Q...a nice tap to advantage and a couple of good grabs. Happy to see Freo getting smashed but look with both eyes people.

What really surprises me tho is how much bigger and slower he looks. Did they get him to bulk up to play deep forward? It seems to have nullified his ground level athleticism.

Edit: he also doesn’t look happy. He was always happy and smiling at Melbourne.

    I mean seriously. Can we get better commentators. Please.

    I was literally thinking this before, it's like they want him to be a bullocking forward. Really lumbering around

    TBH, I derided this thread when it first appeared. I am now a clear convert.

    I now have two games to give a damn about weekly*

    I guess that makes up for the detached apathy that I held for the 15 years 2003-2018.

    Grundy at 29 years old looks more athletic and dynamic than 21 year old Jackson

    He looks like a defeated man out there does Jacko.

    I've had my doubts about him but Rankine is looking the goods so far this season. Been excellent today

    Is there a smarter player at forward 50 stoppages?

    Freo look horrible. unless their defence and mids are flying they won’t win games

    each time they rebound they have no options or connection. as average as LJ has been Tabener as the senior fwd has been woeful. doesn’t compete

    they would have expected 5-0 or 4-1 given their run. wait until they have some tough games!

    freo have Dogs Lions and Swans in the next 5

    I’m starting to almost feel bad for him. But then I remember that he made his choices and we are possibly going to run away from this with a top 5 draft pick so 🤷‍♀️

    The lack of mid forward connection is Freo's big problem and I can't see this resolving itself anytime soon. Some of the delivery today was dreadful.

    Freo look like a genuine bottom 4 side

    Ironically, there's a 2019 Melbourne vibe about them.....at least that season gave us the pick we landed Luke Jackson with.....!

    • PREVIEW: Richmond

      Who would have imagined, when the season kicked off early last month, that Melbourne would emerge from the opening six weeks with wins over both Queensland powerhouses? At the time, Gold Coast and Brisbane were the competition’s early pace-setters, the flavours of the month, and the prospect of the Demons toppling both within the course of a fortnight seemed remote. Yet here they are, banking those scalps alongside home victories over two traditional Victorian rivals and building a quietly impressive resume.

    • REPORT: Brisbane

      Before Sunday, the last time the Brisbane Lions had walked onto the turf of the Melbourne Cricket Ground, they celebrated the pinnacle of the sport - an AFL premiership secured in emphatic fashion for the second consecutive year.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      From the outset, the Casey Demons lacked any spring in their steps. They were out-hustled and out-bustled and finally outplayed by the Brisbane Lions by 38 points on their home turf in perfect conditions at Casey Fields.
