SCRATCH MATCH: Essendon @ Casey (21/2/20)
I presume the squad for this game will be released tonight?

Saints Biggest Victorian Beggar
The AFL should help the smaller clubs as they negotiate the massive media rights which wouldn't be possible without all the clubs. For mine I don't really get why there is this stigma on teams who are not fully self sufficient, otherwise why even have the draft or salary cap either? You can't equate the "business" of a football club purely to a business who's only purpose is to generate profits, otherwise the purpose would be to dominate the whole market and drive all the other clubs out of the competition! We'd be left with just Hawthorn Richmond and Collingwood.

Kade Kolodjashnij on Battling Concussion
A real shame for the kid, I wonder why it seems players with concussion issues attract even more head knocks like there's a target on their skulls? Pure bad luck or something else....

Might have to take back all the bad things we said about Misson seeing as the injury list under Burgess isn’t looking any better!

All good mate....be very interesting to see exactly what type of player Jackson develops into as he appears to have a unique set of attributes.
-
TRAINING: Monday 27th January 2020
Yes he does. Hes a physical beast as well would be one of the strongest players in the AFL. Im not saying a short ruckman cant compete its just noticeable at this stage how small Jackson looks compared to established rucks.
-
TRAINING: Monday 27th January 2020
Perhaps its because he hasn't got a lot of muscle on him yet compared to Preuss who is a behemoth and Maxy who is lean but seriously ripped (both are also nearly 10cm taller)....199cm isnt tall for a ruckman but I'm sure once he fills out, maybe grows a couple more cms he'll look the part of an AFL ruckman.

I was there yesterday, my 2c, Jackson is FAST....glides across the ground he looks something special, small for a ruckman at this stage at least though....presents more like a big midfielder.

How much will Melbourne improve in 2020??
It’s a fail if we don’t make the 8. I think we will unless we end up with the same injury run as last year.

TRAINING: Friday 6th December 2019
Promising reports, at least we have a MUCH fitter squad than the same time last pre-season, just need to injury gods to be kind as we get closer to the proper stuff...

WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - LUKE JACKSON
No issue with Jackson at #3 as a player, go home factor is the concern.

Injury List 2020
May and Lever as our 2 main defenders gasp....can we possibly expect them to get though a decent chunk of the season uninjured....?

WELCOME TO DEMONLAND - MITCH BROWN
Why did Essendon not give him another year anyway, seems a solid player. Considering how injury prone all our talls have been lately I think it’s a smart move.
