You never checked out of a job when you’ve got a better offer somewhere else?

Playing football isn’t like a typical job. It is played out in the public arena, where a brand is built.

And if he has indeed ‘checked out’, that says a lot about him competitiveness and commitment to his teams, while playing for a team that is 2nd on the ladder and in a match against an arch rival

People better get used to the idea that we won't be getting any of the Freo young guns like Brayshaw, Young or Serong. For starters, they have to want to leave. And we won't be asking for 2nd tier players like Acres.

As for Jacko the player/person, I don't have any emotional investment in him. I think his deeds to date doesn't match the hype or supposed contract. But where I am disappointed in Jackson is that the club allowed him to do part of his preseason in Perth. Regardless of money, you'd think he'd show some gratitude and repay the club with another 2 years. Money rules I guess.

Ryan Burton didn’t want to go to Port Adelaide, but it was made to happen to facilitate the Wingard trade. If Freo want him, they have to trade and to trade they need to give something we want
