Jesse Hogan WOW!

Mean the MFC marketing people realise that building Jesse up now, and through his year at Casey will be great groundwork for the marketing event that will be his first game, Round 1 2014.

Actually, he has played 0 games for MFC.

He was wearing a Melbourne jumper...I beg to differ. Not AFL season, but NAB still is a bonefide game for Melbourne I should think

Means we're prepared to delist another player.

I dont think they really expect a yes, but would then at least be in position to say , well, we asked.

I wonder who would be getting nervous ??

If Mark Neeld popped into this thread, he would be demanding 98% of the posters to get back on the 'reality bus. Seriously, the comparasins here after 40 minutes of footbal are ludicrus!

Brereton

Carey

Brown

The kid is full of potential, but he has more than a marathon to go before he gets a game in real time

And what's that worth? SFA. Still think it's a waste of time even asking. If he was eligible to play, he should have been in the draft. The AFL can't and won't change the rules half way through the process.

I hope he ends up like the leader of the Monstars from space jam...

Wasn't the leader an old overweight dude?

What you mean is want him to be like the massive alien playing power forward with Charles Barkley's mad ball skills!!!

It's a waste of time, it makes the club look like we're trying to bend the rules (again) and it makes us look amateurish at best.

Tim Harrington should have played a straight bat 'no' to any queries about Hogan being eligible for 2013, instead of feeding the flames.

Would be a change being the bender rather than the bendee.

He's going to be a player. To put it mildly.

But I am not going to go nuts over a present I can't open for 12 months...

Get down to Casey though...

I blame the GE Money Genie. Society didn't know any different other than to put something on layby if we couldn't buy it straight away. That damn genie gave us the ability to have something before we earnt it!

Every year we say that the preseason seems to last forever. Round 1, 2014 will feel worse than ever given it started last Friday night!

You take a bag full of exaggeration, throw in a pinch of rhetoric and a dash of figerospeech, mix them all up in the Hyper Bowl, pour into a lined cake tin, refrigerate (or overheat) for 30 minutes and voila!... you have the perfect slice of hyperbole.

Has no relevance to this situation.

except that it's pretty much exactly the same situation, aside from Hogan being bigger

high draft pick key forward rushed into a cr@p side to appease supporter impatience

we are going to suck for several years and he won't be at his peak for many more, why the rush?

Will help with team structure for starters. Fill the boots of Clark until his fit

Silly me - you're right. Hogan is the same as Watts, but bigger. Got it.

The only way you could logically conclude that the situations were the same was if the players were the same. Watts probably wasn't mentally ready and certainly wasn't physically ready. Hogan is already bigger than most of the people he'd play on so he clearly is physically ready - as for mentally, we're in no position to judge.

Yes, could just imagine all of the other clubs taking out a class action against the AFL for draft tampering :-)

    GOLDIE'S METTLE by Meggs

    On a perfect night for football at the home of the Redlegs, Norwood Oval, it was the visiting underdogs Melbourne who led all night and hung on to prevail in a 2-point nail-biter. In the previous round St Kilda had made it a tough physical game to help restrict Adelaide from scoring and so Mick Stinear set a similar strategy for his team. To win it would require every player to do their bit on the field plus a little bit of luck.  Fifty game milestoner Sinead Goldrick epitomised

    REDLEG PRIDE by Meggs

    Hump day mid-week footy at the Redlegs home ground is a great opportunity to build on our recent improved competitiveness playing in the red and blue.   The jumper has a few other colours this week with the rainbow Pride flag flying this round to celebrate people from all walks of life coming together, being accepted. AFLW has been a benchmark when it comes to inclusivity and a safe workplace.  The team will run out in a specially designed guernsey for this game and also the following week

    REDEEMING by Meggs

    It was such a balmy spring evening for this mid-week BNCA Pink Lady match at our favourite venue Ikon Park between two teams that had not won a game since round one.   After last week’s insipid bombing, the DeeArmy banner correctly deemanded that our players ‘go in hard, go in strong, go in fighting’, and girl they sure did!   The first quarter goals by Alyssa Bannan and Alyssia Pisano were simply stunning, and it was 4 goals to nil by half-time.   Kudos to Mick Stinear.

    REDEEM by Meggs

    How will Mick Stinear and his dwindling list of fit and available Demons respond to last week’s 65-point capitulation to the Bombers, the team’s biggest loss in history?   As a minimum he will expect genuine effort from all of his players when Melbourne takes on the GWS Giants at Ikon Park this Thursday.  Happily, the ground remains a favourite Melbourne venue of players and spectators alike and will provide an opportunity for the Demons to redeem themselves. Injuries to star play
