This guy is the best talent I've seen walk into the club in 40 years. Every cloud has a silver lining. He'll stay a Dee and I can't wait for next year (said that before).

People need to calm down and read the detail in the article. Consider this statement from the article and you will realise that the $500k payments can not be made until his third season: "Players a

Thought it was really awesome to see the Suns signed their young gun mini draft pick Jack Martin to a 5 year deal last week, Obviously they see him as cornerstone of the club going forward, and have

I wouldn't sign John Coleman to a 5 year contract

Ironically Coleman never made it to 100 games because of a career ending injury

We are in no position to roll the dice on long term contacts and to do so would be irresponsible

Is that you Cameron Schwab?

I'll be honest.

If you were Jesse Hogan's manager, and Melbourne tabled him a 5-year offer, even if it was sizeable financially, would you recommend he sign it?

Right now, that's not a certainty.

There is no way I would sign on if I were him in the current situation, it's just not going to happen. If the club can get back on track next year and show some signs for the future then it would be a good option for both to extend his contract. Now, it would be a stupid move for both parties. The current football mob are going to be too busy packing their own desks.

absolute hogwash and unlike you I have actual inside info. While a new coach might help he was loving the Dees preseason and wants to continue playing with Mitch and Jones.

the thing that will make him go is fickle supporters who say he doesn't smile enough.

If by murmurs you mean people on here panicking thinking the sky is falling and that every player with any ounce of talent wants to walk out, then yes there's plenty!

I'm pretty confident that the club would have done a fair bit of homework on the type of person Hogan is and the likelihood of him wanting to go back home given the investment they've made giving up such a high draft pick fos someone who couldn't even play this year. I reckon you might find that Hogan, Viney, Toumpas, Kent etc are all pretty determined individuals and they'll be keen to help lead the club out of it's current mess.

Anyway he can't just leave without the club agreeing to a trade. I think everyone just needs to take a deep breath....

Agree with your view of him and I have seen him play and I was salivating.

I pray you are correct about him staying a Dee as at the moment he is ours for the next two years only. We need to be on the improve next season if we can't get his signature this year on an extension to his contract.

BH we have all said cant wait for next yr for the past 7 yrs. Force of habit I think.

Once the FD is restructured, board is reshuffled and a new EXPERIENCED coach is signed everything will change for the better.

There is a different feel about this change that is coming as opposed to the ones in the past.

Geez I hope this is wrong. Being screwed by a manager of an 18 year old to become one of our highest paid players before he gets a game.

That's just the pits for us as a club. Our hard earned money we spend on this club should go to an experience midfielder to come in next year and help us rise up the ladder.

I will spew if we pay hogan that much now.

Hogan is critical for the Demons, as the 195cm power forward is set to become a key public face of the club's rebuild from next season.

He has been repeatedly referred to by Melbourne officials in public speeches and media engagements as a silver lining to a dark season.

I hate the above.

As per my earlier post, can we just pump up the men in our team (however bad they are) and leave the kids to play footy?

No you won't.

You will be thankful we have extended the contract of a talent like him.

And we have plenty of cap space, just a ridiculous amount.

Thanks to our atrocious recruitment several years ago we have plenty of money to throw at an experienced midfielder.

So, feel better?

    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

    EASYBEATS by Meggs

    A beautiful sunny Friday afternoon, with a light breeze and a strong Windy Hill crowd set the scene, inviting one team to seize the day and take the important four points on offer. For the Demons it was not a good Friday, easily beaten by an all-time largest losing margin of 65 points.   Essendon threw themselves into action today, winning most of the contests and had three early goals with Daria Bannister on fire.  In contrast the Demons were dropping marks, hesitant in close and comm

    DEFUSE THE BOMBERS by Meggs

    Last Saturday’s crushing loss to Fremantle, after being three goals ahead at three quarter time, should be motivation enough to bounce back for this very winnable Round 5 clash at Windy Hill. A first-time venue for the Melbourne AFLW team, this should be a familiar suburban, windy, footy environment for the players.   Essendon were brave and competitive last week against ladder leader Adelaide at Sturt’s home ground. A familiar name, Maddison Gay, was the Bombers best player with

    BLOW THE SIREN by Meggs

    Fremantle hosted the Demons on a sunny 20-degree Saturdayafternoon winning the toss and electing to defend in the first quarter against the 3-goal breeze favouring the Parry Street end. There was method here, as this would give the comeback queens, the Dockers, last use of the breeze. The Melbourne Coach had promised an improved performance, and we did start better than previous weeks, winning the ball out of the middle, using the breeze advantage and connecting to the forwards.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out
