Couldn’t boo someone who made a huge contribution to one of the greatest moments of my life.

Anyone who does should get some perspective.

    Are you saying those who don’t appreciate the greatest moment of YOUR life need perspective?

    It was one of the great moments of my life - but I also had the privilege the see 50's finals and '64. I don't 'Boo!' any MFC player who moved on. Even now, I miss Frosty and a few others. Jackson is one of the 'others'. Nope, I cannot see myself being disloyal and not fully appreciating a family member - even though that person has moved out of home.

    Good luck to those who wish to Boo.

    You pay your money. Enjoy it how you will. 

    I won't be. I'm 48 have seen one premiership in my lifetime - 23 guys with a medal - Hes one them forever. 

    It's a short time those who make the grade get to play at the level - he got a choice of playing with is or returning home - he chose home. Good luck to him.

    The people who choose to book him are probbaly the same poeple that booed Oskar Baker in r1.

    I won't be booing unless he does osmehting to one of our players. 

    It's not like he has come out and bagged our club

    After he left we got a pretty good replacemnt in Grundy. So it's worked out pretty well. 

    He also provided the best 10 minutes of entertainment in that GF and I will always be grateful for that.

    Anyway I hope to hear no booing, then it means he hasn't got the footy.

    You're right. I need to stop booing my ex-wife whenever I see her. :laugh:

    This whole "Mum" shtick is really stale.  

    Is Ed Langdon a "Mummy's boy" because he elected to come home to Victoria?

    Yep. He purchased and lives in the house opposite his Mum.

    He's no longer a Demon so I will be booing him from my lounge up here in Qld. Whilst he was a part of our flag winning team in 21 he is now the enemy. He decided to go home and he has to expect some loud noise going his way. I just hope Gawn and Grundy show him he is still a way to go. Fingers crossed.

    I know people might think I am being provocative with this.

    But I am very curious to know?

    Will Melbourne supporters be booing Luke Jackson on Saturday at the MCG?

    Is it even appropriate to boo at all? We are supposed to be better than Collingwood and Essendon supporters and their vile antics.

    I have heard some say no that they won't do that.

    While I have also heard others say yes, that they will boo Luke Jackson.

    I myself am currently undecided if I will boo Luke Jackson.

    I am quite torn on the matter.

    On the one side, Luke Jackson is a Premiership hero who helped turn momentum in our favour to help the Melbourne Demons end their 57 year Premiership drought. Something that ALL Melbourne supporters would be grateful of.

    However, on the other side you could say he showed disloyalty by leaving the Melbourne Football Club because he wanted to go back Home to be closer to family in Perth. He also was not up front and honest with his decision about leaving the Melbourne Football Club until the end of the season. Forcing the Melbourne Demons to only deal with Fremantle as his preferred option.

    I have even heard from some one-eyed and fanatical Melbourne supporters go as far as to call Luke Jackson a "traitor" for leaving us and going to the Fremantle Dockers.

    I personally would not go that far! Luke Jackson contributed far more than Tom "money bags" Scully ever did who left the Demons for GWS around 10 years ago. I had no qualms with booing Tom Scully!

    Anyway, I am genuinely interested in hearing fellow Melbourne supporters thoughts and opinions about whether or not they will be booing Luke Jackson on Saturday at the MCG?

    I'll never quite understand the obsession some had/have with booing Tom Scully, or even being overly negative about him.

    The bloke was 20 with suspect shoulders. Got offered $6 million over 6 years, over a decade ago. Would hate to think what that is worth now under the current salary cap. He would have been an [censored] to knock that back, given the circumstances and situation.

    He was at our club when it was frankly unprofessional. Everyone has heard the China trip stories. He was obsessed with getting the most out of himself - non-drinker, immaculate trainer, etc - Melbourne wasn't the place for that, at that time, unfortunately.

    Is it because he didn't tell anyone before he officially left that he was leaving? What was he meant to do? It was not acceptable to do that, and I'm not sure anyone ever did announce before the end of a season that they were going elsewhere the next season (unlike the NRL).

    I was always indifferent to him when he left - he was just an opposition player to me. No reason to hate him though.

    He was meant to create a precedent about stating his intentions before a season ended? Really? Something that never happened before?

    Yes, I clearly don't get that!

    • 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.

    • 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.
