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?)

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.

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.

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.

Such disrespectful language.  

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

    HIGHLIGHTS/LOWLIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Melbourne traveled across the continent to take on the Fremantle Dockers in sweltering conditions at Mandurah south of Perth in a game that delivered the club both its highlight and its lowlight in the first minute.  But first, let’s start by doing away with the usual cliches used in connection with the game. It was just a practice match and the result didn’t matter. Bad kicking is bad football. The game was played in severe heat, the swirly breeze played havoc with both teams resulting in

    TRAINING: Friday 28th February 2025

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock to bring you their observations from today's training session before the Demons head off to Perth for their final Practice Match. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Beautiful morning, not much wind, more than a couple of dozen spectators.  The players were up and about, boisterous and having fun. One of their last drills were three teams competing in a hard at it, handball game in a small area. Goody

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the
