WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - JESSE HOGAN


Little Richard

Recommended Posts

Possibly. But if that was the case why wouldn't we just trade them pick 4 instead of 3 - would give more legitimacy to the argument that we had to package it with 13 as well.

I don't think we are allowed to trade pick 4 as the scully consolation pick...may be wrong

Rapt to get hogan. Some aggressive moves this off season already. Hopefully wines at 4. Dawes will prob cost 20 which I think is about right. He's a guaranteed starter. Look at our history of picks around the 20 mark and you will see why it's not paying overs.

You never know, now that we have Hogan and a couple of possible other players, some players that have said they wouldn't consider melbourne as a club to go to may change their minds as they can see what we're heading towards! i'm not saying that this will happen or that it is likely but i'd say it would probably increase the chances :)

"At 195 cm and 97.4 kg, Hogan ran a 20 metre sprint at the recent NAB AFL Draft Combine in 3.02 seconds - regarded as midfield standard. He also ran the three km time trial in 10 minutes 20 seconds.

Hogan also has great acceleration on the lead, and is a strong contested mark."

Weighs more than Cook and Watts put together.

Thanks. I was wondering what height he'd got to. 195cm/97kg, fast, agile, beast, who's a good field kick and strong contested mark. It's as good as it gets for a CHF. His 3.02 for his size is excellent. Wines best was 3.07 and Whitfield ran 3.15 (with a head cold). In his last game for Claremont he had 21 disposals, 10 marks and kicked 4 goals to be best on ground in the prelim. final.

He makes Hurley, who is 193cm/92kg, look like his slow little kid Brother.

This draft/trade period may well be talked about in 10 years from now for the Dees.

10 years ago I would say that it would be worth it when FFs like Dunstall, Locket, Carey ect could kick bags of 10 but these days its more of an open game where teams need a range of players to be able to kick goals to mix it up more.

10 years ago 1 power forward > 2 goalkicking mids

now its the other way around.

I was waiting and wondering in which way you would find unhappiness in the Hogan deal - now I know.

Have they done anything right yet? Viney for second round OK for you?

Hogan only averages 2.2 goals per game this year.

I just worry that we are over rating him a tad...

Especially since we have the worst mid-field in the comp...just saying....this being a mid field super draft and all..

He plays as a CHF and is often up in the middle of the ground. 2.2 goals per game is fantastic for a young CHF.

Give it rest mate.

Give my opinion a rest?

Mate if everyone took your advice you would have nobody to discuss things with on this forum.

Effectively we got Jesse Hogan and GWS got the two picks we got for stitching them up (with a bit of improvement) when they took $cully; we get a future star they get a $6m noose round their necks, sounds good to me.

You've got to have a bit of sympathy for them.

Been reading Demonland for a few years now, but this is my first post (because I have never been so hopefull that we are heading in the right direction), and it amazes me the people who post on here - are they Demon supporters or just plain stupid.

Getting Viney, Hogan and Barry, still having pick 4 + 20 - (to maybe use on Dawes) and people think somehow thats not good enough and we have been dudded! Do these people know anything about football!

From some of the posts I think some supporters want us to be at the bottom every year to get draft picks, well here's hoping next year we don't have a pick in the top ten!!

    LIVE AND LET DIE by Meggs

    The Demons’ impressive late season charge to finals will most likely come unstuck this Saturday evening when the Bombers blow up the also-ran Blues in the Ikon Park double-header.   To mangle McCartney, what does it matter to ya? To have any chance to play next week Narrm has got a job to do and needs to do it well.  We’ve got to give the Pie sheilas hell, say live and let die! It’s Indigenous Round for this game and the chance to celebrate and engage with Aboriginal and Torres

    Had to shoulder more responsibility as the club’s injury concerns deepened but needs to step up more as he closes in on 100 games. Date of Birth: 31 May 2000 Height: 186cm Games MFC 2024: 21 Career Total: 95 Goals MFC 2024: 6 Career Total: 34 Games CDFC: 1 Goals CDFL: 0

    Failed to fulfill the promise of his breakout six goal effort against the Tigers in 2023 and was generally disappointing as a key forward. It remains to be seen whether Simon Goodwin will persevere with him in attack or return him to the backline where he was an important cog in the club’s 2021 premiership success.

    After a bright start to the season, playing mostly in defence, Howes seemed to lose his way in midseason but fought back with some good performances at Casey and finished the year back at AFL level. One to watch in 2024. Date of Birth: 7 March 2003 Height: 191cm Games MFC 2024: 15 Career Total:  15 Goals MFC 2024: 0 Career Total:  0 Games CDFC 2024: 6 Goals CDFC 2024: 0

    Originally an NBL basketballer with the Brisbane Bullets, he moved across town in 2019 to the AFL Lions where he played 19 games before crossing to Melbourne where he was expected to fill a role as a back up ruckman/key forward. Unfortunately, didn’t quite get there although he did finish equal sixth in Casey’s best and fairest award. Date of Birth: 23 February 1999 Height: 198cm Games CDFC: 14 Goals CDFL: 13

    Sadly, had to wrap up a great career in midstream on the back of multiple concussions which culminated in the Maynard hit in the 2023 Qualifying Final. His loss to the club was inestimable over and above his on field talent given his character and leadership qualities, all of which have been sorely missed.

    2024 Player Reviews: #40 Taj Woewodin

    The son of former Demon Brownlow Medalist Shane, Taj added a further 16 games to his overall tally of games but a number were as substitute. He is slowly fitting into the team structure but without doing anything spectacular and needs to take further steps forward in 2025 for his career to progress.

    The clever small was unable to cement a place in the Melbourne midfield and spent most of his time this year with the Casey Demons where he finished equal fourth in its best & fairest.

    Bowey’s season was curtailed early when he sustained a shoulder injury that required surgery in the opening game against Sydney. As a consequence, he was never able to perform consistently or at anywhere near his previous levels.  Date of Birth: 12 September 2002 Height: 175cm Games MFC 2024: 14 Career Total: 61 Goals MFC 2024: 0 Career Total: 6
