Found his niche on a wing and got better and better as the season went on and put in some starring performances in the finals. His diving mark and goal in the third term of the grand final to put the team in front was inspired.

You can watch the entire match quarter by quarter on The AFL site.

Spargo was one of the team’s big improvers performing his role of the small pressure forward with a reliable kicking foot on a regular basis throughout the year - something of which he had only shown in glimpses previously.

Shares a leadership role in the team’s defence with Steven May and had a sensational season with his record breaking rebounding defensive work. He was instrumental in helping the team into such a strong position at the end of the season and for his outstanding work in the finals.

In fairness to @binman that match felt like a lifetime ago but good point nonetheless.

For us yes. Matthew Scarlett might disagree.

Or longer ones if there is a lot of rage & new MFCSS variants.

There were some concerns with injury and form going into the middle of the season and there was that embarrassing three week suspension incurred against the Crows but the determined, tough nut was born for finals football in the red and blue. His strength and non-negotiable hardness at the football was so important in the last month of the season.

Every non-premiership year is going to be such a let down.

A big 🤦‍♂️ for me and my comprehension skills. Also I can never get back the time I wasted trawling The West Australian newspaper.

The screenshot above mentions The West Australian but I was not able to find anything in any article from the The West Australian reporting about Jackson being on the verge of committing long term or being joined by his parents. If the joined by his parents part is true then that is huge.

I believe it's still just the Canberra Times reportage from October 11th filtering through to social media and people reading it as gospel. Not saying it's not true but nothing has been confirmed nor has there been any other whispers except from that CT article screenshotted below.

Jackson’s rate of development throughout 2021 was exponential. As he’s matured, he’s become a very hard player to match up on whether playing in ruck or up forward and his performance in the grand final, in particular during the third quarter surge, was inspirational.
