Early basketball


In 2018, Jackson represented Australia at the Under-17 FIBA Basketball World Cup in Argentina and won gold at the Under-16 FIBA Asia Championship in China.[5] He was named in the all-tournament team for the U16 Asian Championship.[6] The AIS basketball program was keen for him to move to Canberra in 2019 and begin a pathway which could have led him to college in the United States.[5] He was childhood friends with NBA draft pick Luke Travers.[7]


Early football


Jackson represented Western Australia at the AFL Under 18 Championships for two seasons, where he ended up winning under-18 All Australian selection.[8][9][10] He also played for the East Fremantle Sharks for the 2019 season in the colts division.[11][12]


AFL career


Jackson debuted in the Demons' one-point win over the Carlton Blues in the second round of the 2020 AFL season.[13] He collected 7 disposals, 1 behind and 1 tackle.[14] After being omitted for the next 3 rounds, Jackson re-entered the team in Round 7. He won the Rising Star nomination for Round 10.[15][16][17] In that game he kicked 2 goals, including the opening goal. On top of that, he also collected 8 disposals, 14 hitouts and 2 marks.[18] At the conclusion of the year he took out the Harold Ball Memorial Trophy, an award given to the best young talent for the Melbourne Demons.[19] Jackson re-signed for a one year contract extension with the club at the end of the year, keeping him at the club until 2022.[1] He became part of a select-few players in the AFL to receive two Rising Star nominations in their careers after he received a nomination for his 22 disposal, 1 goal performance in Round 7 of the 2021 AFL season.[20]

Following Melbourne's loss to the Brisbane Lions in the 2022 semi-final, Jackson reportedly met with the club and formally requested a trade to his home state of Western Australia, however he did not nominate a specific club and allowed offers from both West Coast and Fremantle.[21] Jackson was traded to Fremantle on October 10 for a first-round pick, a future first-round pick and a future second-round pick.[22]
