    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.

    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. 

  • Quote

    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

    • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

      Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

    • PREGAME: St. Kilda

      With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

    • REPORT: Richmond

      Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.

    • POSTGAME: Richmond

      The Dees ran another clinic for the second week in a row as they easily accounted for the Tigers in the lightning interrupted shortened match at Mars Stadium in Ballarat.

    • VOTES: Richmond

      Kozzy Pickett was the man of the match last week and has a vote lead over backup ruck Max Heath who didn't play this week and 5 votes over former Saint Jack Steele. Who gets the votes in this weeks shortened match win over the Tigers? Your votes please. 6, 5, 4, 3, 2 & 1.

    • GAMEDAY: Richmond

      It's Game Day and the 2026 AFL Premiership season is almost upon us as the Demons take to the field for their final practice match before the first ball is kicked in anger in 16 days time. What are you expecting to see from the Dees today as they take on the Tigers at Mars Stadium in Ballarat?
