DistrACTION Jackson

What?

Yeah they probably will. Doesn’t mean we should change our stance though

Well given the club has said we aren’t trading him, not much else can be said. Media can say all they want

If it’s season ending we can before Feb 21

I’d pull the trigger on Roy George personally if it’s a season ender

Chill out mate. Everyone is supporting HUMANS hoping they do well. Sometimes it doesn’t work out. Would love to be at your work giving you a hard time every time something went wrong for you. To$$er is a good word to describe you. He has been working and training really hard and getting super fit, so how about supporting guys that are giving 100%

He was actually helped off….

Did it look bad? Just saw footage… yep it’s bad. Could be a knee

The club can stick with whatever they want… he has a contract and he has to honour it unless we get something worthwhile. He obviously knows that given his answers today. Maybe his missus will get in his ear and say she’s not keen on moving anyway

Apparently injured?

How did Bowey look? I'm hopeful he takes a big step up this year.

If they weren't I'd be very concerned

He will be a restricted free agent, which is handy because it will give us flexibility. If we have a shocker and he leaves we could get a first round pick after our first, or we can choose to match and force a trade. No point stressing about it now, we hold all the cards for the next 2 years and then after the third we can see what happens.

While I think he probably didn't choose the best words, I think saying this puts to rest trade talk for this season unless we get an absolutely monster deal. I'm hoping the club hold him to the next 3 years and if he wants to leave after then so be it. It's also important to remember a lot can change in 3 years! He may end up being really happy in Melbourne and choose to stay, you just don't know.

Played a straight bat and said I’m contracted to Melbourne. Sounds like his manager has said they aren’t trading you so let’s just keep powder dry on any chat….

Will be interesting to see if he's back in full contact training today... I think the club has been just playing it ultra cautious the last few weeks. If it was in season there is no doubt he would've already been playing, potentially even the week after it happened going by reports it was on the minor end.

Don’t think a hamstring injury will make a difference to his decision. He may well seek a trade, but hopefully he decides to stay for at least a couple more years.

Anyone else like me and waiting patiently for the McVee injury update?!

A lot of golfers wear these. Sun protection is ultra important!

I think we moved past the messiah complex of years gone by.... let's leave that to Freo.

Yep…. Literally as the siren sounded the umpire blew his whistle. What a disaster that was. I was right behind the kick, it started right and looked like a behind and then somehow swung back the other way, a bit like Jordan Dawson’s from Crows when he did it v Port. Except Farmer was closer to goal.

Try being at Subi the following year as a 13/14 year old, right behind the goals as Jeff kicked the after siren winner…. That was a rough night

Hello all. Just following up as we currently have 10 of the 18 sides from last year who have already confirmed for 2025 SuperCoach. If you were in the competition last year and are keen to come back again please let me know and I can send you the league code. I will give it until around Opening Round before I start inviting new members. Thanks

So Adams looked pretty good WW?

So was it a hamstring or ankle?? Update - hamstring as confirmed by the club
