    Such a shame he can't play this year! looking forward to putting some money on him to win the rising star next year by a mile.

    I don't post very often, however I picked as soon as we got hogan in the mini draft that toumpas was part of that deal...... Let me say more than 2.5 years out that I believe as soon as hogan is out of contract he will ask for a trade to Fremantle. In the next 2-3 years they will have pavlich, sandilands and mcpharlin out of contract. Those 3 players would represent more than 2 million in their cap... They missed out on Clark and Cloke they are desperate to find a big forward and he will be the man,,,,,,

    Maybe so but with all the negativity and bullish!t going on at the moment how about some positive thinking.

    If he goes he goes. All we can do is foster his love for this club by showing him we are turning it all around. We do this by getting our club admin and FD in order and developing our kids and some savvy recruiting.

    Lets focus on that even if it seems an eternity away.

    give him a reason to stay and he might... besides... they will target ppl over the next 2.5 years to fill those potential voids. 2.5 years is a long time in football.

    We have a mountain of actual problems to think about. We don't need to add to it with pure hypotheticals. There's every chance we could be an entirely different side in a couple of years and Hogan will be a chief contributor and leader.

    One would hope that with the AFL getting involved with the running of the club (Evans appointment for 6 months to ruthlessly review the way the club operates) that by the time his contract is up at the end of 2015, we will be winning games of footy and he'll want to stay. Lucky he isn't coming out of contract now.

    I love the club, but we are at rock bottom, largely by our own design. Having the AFL step into help is the best thing that can happen.

    Hopefully we have a few more mids next season so that we can get the pill down to him.

    surely well improve by than making Melbourne a more attractive destination

    It's best to temper expectations. Just think of Glenn Lovett cruelled by injuries in his prime / Schwarta's knee/s / Scott Thompson's return to Adelaide .

    Relax . . . we've got this:

    and I wish I could be 17 again........................

    Jonothan brown is a victorian boy, mathew pavlich is a south Australian, buddy is western Australian, none of the above have requested a trade to date, and we have plenty of upside with some good young players, the ability to play on the MCG 10+ times a year and very deep pockets in terms of cap room,

    not going to resign to the idea he will up and leave first chance he gets just yet.

    Surely this would have been something Neeld and the recruiting Team would have wanted to be confident about before the decided to invest so much time, resources and early picks on this young fella.

    glass half full anyways.

    the sheer strength of this guy is insane, even when you don't look at his age

    He is going to make a lot of seasoned AFL defenders look very silly next year

  • Quote

    Even if they did want him by then they would have to give us like pick 1,2 and 3 for him (I think there would be competition for a J.Brown jnr).

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • 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.
