He is not leaving Fremantle. That also makes it much, much harder for Freo to get Pickett.

Don’t be so sure, he’s on $800K, someone’s going to offer him $1.2 - 1.5, that’s a big big difference at the end of your career.

He might have shut them down but he can't shut down the thread.

Tbf if we’re going by her social media activity she also has explicitly denied that they have any interest in moving.

 

still a long time till October. Shouldn’t rule out anything

you missed the 'first rule' 

Headlines mean sfa. He wants more coin. Will Freo stump up? Not if they wont both Koz and Warner. Prob not even if it is just Koz. extra 500 per year for both making 1 million extra in their cap? Doubt it very much. Wouldnt surprise me if Freo are just quietly keen on the transaction. Koz for LJ.

Young, Serong, Fat Ruckman, Brayshaw, Bolton, overpaid caotain, fyfe, the young forwards coming up. Good luck fitting an extra mill into that!

 

Luke Jackson seems to change his mind more often than he changes his underwear. He has a contract until 2029. Why sign on for so long if you want to change the terms five minutes later? What exactly has he achieved in the past three years that would justify a higher salary?

The phrase "caveat emptor" springs immediately to mind every time Jackson's name comes up. Presumably any club seeking his services needs to sign him up beyond 2029 at a much higher salary. That's a clear pass for me.

Thread door is ajar but closing fast.

If he's happy to play back-up ruck for his mate Biff then good luck to him. 

They ain't getting Pickett for free so we'll just wait and see. This might close the door today but it's very easy to open at season's end when we wave the 25 Cup in his face and say "Kozz is staying, why don't you come back and enjoy the threepeat"

So he’s contracted to 2029 but likely till 2031 with triggers, and now they want to add another two years on top of that???

His manager has obviously done well conning Freo but if anyone saw that comment section of the Facebook post you’d know there was a real story here and a real pull to get out of WA. 

His girlfriend will come back to Victoria. Then what? Story will re emerge during trade week. 
 

Given the direction the game is moving , Kozzy is far more valuable to us than LJ

Geez. The fourth estate are dusting off a few old trade rumours this week. What odds we get Koz to Freo again before Friday?

Makes sense. The Jackson/Darcy combo is as ineffective as Gawndy, we need something juicy for Kosi if he leaves, and Gawn is nearing the end (or is he?). If Luke wants it and who knows what goes in that guys head, but then i think this trade would be mutually beneficial for all parties.
