Well, that didn't last long.

"Someone from the club has spoken to him already and he has reiterated that he doesn't want to go anywhere and he's never been happier, so we'll leave it at that I reckon."
yer because we have never seen a player in the history of the AFL say one thing and do the complete opposite.

No need to wind it back. Just back yourself in mate, and we'll see at the end of the year.
My point is that at no point did I say he was leaving, nor do I care if he does or doesn’t, I was merely stating that words are cheap in the world of football :)

Really Interesting. Jackson’s partner is from Geelong, 33 years of age.
I’m sure he was aware of this before he signed the deal.
Pickett for Jackson is what Melbourne desperately want.

Beat Geelong can do is a second rounder and a player you’ve never heard of.

To be fair to Barrass, the Eagles promised him they'd look at his contract and they broke that promise.
Yep

Just trying to point out though that whatever players and club say midseason, you can take with a grain of salt.

I give the rumour some credence as it was from Mitch Cleary.
If it was from someone like Barich or Gossage though, I wouldn't believe a word it.
 
Now if ever there was a type of ruck (and Geelong has a bad history with ruck trade results) that Geelong would pay overs for its Jackson as he's the type of ruck that Scott loves. But it's irrelevant as Jackson isn't leaving WA (thankfully).

Smoke typically = fire.

Not saying he’ll go, but there’s some chance.

Not to mention Freo would be mad not to entertain it. Two #1 rucks never really works. If they could turn Jackson into Pickett and Warner they’d be mental not to try it.

It just means he has spoken with his manager. His manager knows Jacko's contract is unders with the new CBA, so is making noises in the media.

And the language from Mitch suggests Jacko could be open to leaving if there's a huge offer, but what he really wants to do is leverage the Kozzie talk to generate a better contract for his client at Freo.

Yeah this is the only way I think we'd consider it i'd imagine.
