I believe he wants to stay in WA next year.

Could do worse than cut his teeth at Claremont in the WAFL

    only reservation I have about Hogan is how long it will take for him to do any real damage - 17 year old KPP, gotta be about 5 years off one would think. An 18 year old top draft pick midfielder is generally pretty much ready to go straight away as the last few drafts have shown

    How long will it take BP's pet project Cook before we can build a side around and before he does any damage?

    Just on GWS. Wasn't there someone from GWS recently stating publicly that the GWS were being careful with their cap limit re: discussions with Jon Giles and his contract. He wanted more money, several other clubs were keen etc....?????

    All of the sudden Giles is re-signed on a decent 3 year contract.

    Now I'm reading today Stephen Silvagni and the Giants are ready to step in if the Swans and Crows can't reach an agreement over Tippett. The $900K contract rings a bell or two.

    Oh, sorry, nevermind....I forgot GWS have an endless pit of money and a cap that is as flexible as a rubber band at the AFL's discretion.

    Hogan turns 18 in Dec so would be 19 when he hits the ground in 2014, and by all accounts should be cherry ripe by then, after 2 pre-seasons and a year at Casey...

    Are you sure thats right? Can't he play for us a an 18yo??

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.
