    Reckon Jackson for Koz is the only way the club, and many of us, feel okay about it.  Koz is next level but we could really need Jackson in the next couple of years.  Would really hate to lose Kozzie though, he is just so damn good he's a ridiculous talent.

    Jackson would be enormous for us.

    He is better than nearly any key forward we have, with only JVR in the discussion.

    He is a ruckman who would be great playing with Max, as we know and especially more valuable after he is gone.

    He is also good around the ground and is effectively another big mid.

    It's probably easier to replace Kozzie, than find a Jackson.

    It also would mean JVR no longer has to play in the ruck (the odd fwd fifty stoppage aside), could extend Max’s career by 1-2 years and the transition from Gawn / LJ to LJ / White would be effortless.

    @adonski link won't load for me.

    I'm sure it's enlightening.

    Bit of a shame, has next week weeks tattsolotto numbers on it

    Also a tid bid from Cal Twomey of Jackson telling Melbourne players he  is "keen to look at a move back"

    This is the only way I'll accept the club letting Kozzie go 2 years early. Not for 2 or 3 late first rounder picks spread over years which is the best Freo will offer.

    He'd be a terrific third forward for us next year that can cause chaos in the ruck when Max has a breather. And you'd more than comfortably rest Max every and now and then by giving Jackson the keys. 

    I'd feel better about our chances on Sunday if hypothetically Jackson played an 80/20 forward/ruck role this Sunday. His goal kicking is very solid.

    Yep.

    I have no idea what anyone is worth, usually a key position player is worth more in a trade. But Jacko and Koz are quite unique players.

    Either way he's just the man we need for our Gawn succession plan.

    Has he improved as a forward? 

    I remember being astounded by how good he was in the ruck and how skilful he was around the ground but underwhelmed by much of what I saw of him as a forward.

    this is the most elite bait and switch weve ever pulled. focus on melb and kozzie? na jackson wants to come back. focus on freo and luke. bang.

    We should try and keep both players. Line in the Sand…

    We may in the end have to give up Koz, if this eventuates, but not without an almighty fight.

    Isnt it correct that the interview also says he is very happy at Freo? But the headline did not include that?

    Just seems another brainf@rt kozzie type moment.

    Convince Kossi to stay and take Jacko back, we would be straight back in contention for a flag

    • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

      Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

    • CASEY: Williamstown

      The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

      Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    • AFLW REPORT: St. Kilda

      The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
