Luke Jackson back to Victoria?

I don’t think Freo fans will mind the talk of Jackson leaving if it allows them to get Kossie and Chad Warner. 

Trade and free agency period is another thing for another time. Right now I'm happy for any potential distractions to aid their 2025 cause.

I would do that trade but would want a top 10 pick as well

If we could do that, it would be a steal

If Dogga came back, he can't have #6 back.

I seem to have a thing for whoever's in #6.

(Who had it before Dogga?)

Freo need LJ more than Kozzi in their fwd line

This would be profoundly immature and achieve what exactly?

Take the spotlight off Kozzy. Its pretty obvious. 

Clubs have a lot to do with leading stuff to the media. Collingwood re:Trac; Geelong re: Oliver and Freo re: Kozzy are all examples from last year. Its about time we grow a backbone and respond.

I know the obvious would be to trade Kozzy. But to me i'd want something coming back our way given the size of LJ's contract we would have to take on.

Alternative scenarios:

McVee and our Future First for Jacko and Freo's 2nd. Throw in McAdam's for good measure. 

Riv, JVR not for sale.

Don't really get the logic there. The immediate thought from basically everyone was Kozzy for Jackson. If anything the spotlight is intensified.

It's possible we leaked that we're courting him but that's totally different to just making the entire thing up. Like the Trac and Oliver stories last year were clearly not made up. You're also assuming that it's clubs leaking all this stuff and not the players representation or the players themselves.

Jordan Lewis had it before Dogga and before JL, it was Chris Dawes.

Grundy inherited the #6 from Dogga for one season before Windsor took over.

I’d send Rivers off and keep knuckles, Judd is much more valuable in my eyes.

[Little Goffy 14,957]

I have a bad feeling Jackson has already been invited to house-sit for Bailey Smith.

And I know he'll sign on the moment I mention this, but how about a clean sweep of trading for Jackson and grabbing Brayshaw in Free Agency.

Next step is surely to start pumping out the gossip about Freo's culture. Possibly a falling out over the length of Shai Bolton's Wikipedia page. Seriously, there's more on Shai Bolton than Alexander Humboldt.

I can definitely see that clashing with humble achiever Brayshaw.

Wait though until Maxy retires in 2029

I get that, but if we think Kosi is gone LJ is better than any combination of picks we might get. Plus it would mean JVR never has attend centre bounces.

lets see how those comments age 

The comments may age terribly albeit they were made at half time in reaction to watching the boys bang on a whopping 15 points by half time in their first official match of the year while LJ was starring.

I'm not as confident as others that we'll be a consistent finals team year in year out, but Jackson would be a great get.

Mrs J found some of Kelsey's undergarments in the weekly wash he dropped off and the S has hit the proverbial F.

Keep him away from Torquay, that's way too close to Taxpayer Park

Sorry, if the choice was between trading McVee or Rivers, I’d keep McVee.

This was in response to someone suggesting a trade of McVee
