It’s a very interesting situation, don’t forget LJ & Kozz shared a house together with Toby Bedford…

    If this did happen, it would be pretty cool that we essentially got Caleb and Kolt for Jackson, then got Jackson back again. Losing Kos would suck though

    That was a brilliant post @dazzledavey36. I'm in stitches of laughter. The Melbourne players will be all over this big time.

    Looks like he's forgotten the words to Happy Birthday.

    Just like that time I visited Singapore and an ad played before the movies about how the World Happiness Rankings said Singaporeans were unhappy but actually... Singaporeans are so happy! 😉

    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. 

    Whatever the case, I find it funny that Freo now have a distraction, and over a player they stole from us. It's lovely.

    Surely someone has to go stand near their race with a dees jersey with Jackson tapped onto the back when they play here? Would be hilarious

    Wasn’t Acres essentially forced out of Saints in the first place for Hill? And then essentially forced out of Freo. They were offering him like 180k guaranteed or something crazy low like that.

    Brad Hill went west and was back in Melbourne in a couple years though. Hogan and Lobb both ended up back east too. 

    Not sure about his time at the Saints, I didn't really follow his fortunes there. I did notice him when he played at Fremantle though and thought he had his moments. I have two Freo suppirting mates who liked him and were sad to see him depart. It is true that Freo lowballed him with a contract offer, I thought it was low $200K but I don't swear on that. 

    Anyways, glad we picked him up, handy player and had a knack of doing things in crucial moments that has made him a bit of Blues cult player [makes offerings to the shrine of Blake Acres in my living room] 🙏😁

    I take this with a grain of salt considering where it's coming from but I do admit, I always found Jackson's folks very off putting.

    I remember see her mum commenting on the MFC official Facebook page when he was officially traded and it had all the traits of a very controlling and toxic parent.

    He is a wonderful talent and would welcome him back with open arms, albeit the asking price will be steep.

    Love McVee and Rivers but I would rather see them leave before Kozy (noting this is wishful thinking).

    As SWYL said, I'd rather we fight to keep all our WA talent, and get LJ back as well.

    How we get LJ back without Kozzy, Rivers et al as part of the package I don't know, but maybe it's some future 1sts?

    To be honest I don't blame them considering the age gap. Hope they keep it up long enough to get him back.

    Anyway have a read through the comments here. Luke backing her up, her confirming the rumours. It is on.

    So was doing a bit of light reading about this on the actual facebook post and some of the horrible personal comments directed at Jackson and his girlfriend have been from a family member or other random, and yet it's none other then Jackson mum Melissa,  who is liking every comment that is personally attacking Luke and the girlfriend.

    If I'm reading between the lines that says to me that there's been a complete family break down between Luke and his parents.

    Just do the right thing and come back home Lukey boy 💙🤎

    Yeah looks like he's had a complete falling out with his family. Interesting. I believe he bought the house that they're currently living in too. 

    Also apparently with a lot of his friends. Definitely legit reasons to want to get out of WA.

    Mitch Cleary's story makes complete sense now.

    Awfully cute of Freo though to completely downplay the situation but...

    Clearly there is a lot going on behind the scenes.

    Mind you after further digging there is a comment from Kelsey saying

    I'd have him back. We hopefully still have a good relationship with him. We need a ruck once Max retires. I'd give them future picks etc....

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

    • CASEY: Sandringham

      The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
      Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

      The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.
