Lock him up with 4. Hell we gave Pederson 3 years so why not? Then trade watts and frawley for midfield guns is my call. It starts in the midfield.

    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?

    put the crack pipe down . hogan aint signing with the dees beyond this contract. dockers and eagles already in his ear.

    I am also certain he will leave. Just a few murmurs around.

    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....

    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).

    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.

    Any inside knowledge BH? Have you ever spoken to him at any training sessions?

    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?

    On sen this morning - reports we have offered a 5 year contract for big money. Dermie thinks its not the best idea but that the club needs 'good news'.

    Maybe there is something behind the mumblings we hear about Hogan going home, club on the front foot.

    Guess we have to find out before this years draft, that way if he is leaving we can take Boyd.

    • REPORT: Sydney

      A few weeks ago, I visited a fellow Melbourne Football Club supporter in hospital, and our conversation inevitably shifted from his health diagnosis to the well-being of our football team. Like him, Melbourne had faced challenges in recent months, but an intervention - in his case, surgery, and in the team's case, a change in game style - had brought about much improvement.  The team's professionals had altered its game style from a pedestrian and slow-moving approach, which yielded an average of merely 60 points for five winless games, to a faster and more direct style. This shift led to three consecutive wins and a strong competitive effort in the fourth game, albeit with a tired finish against Hawthorn, a strong premiership contender.  As we discussed our team's recent health improvement, I shared my observations on the changes within the team, including the refreshed style, the introduction of new young talent, such as rising stars Caleb Windsor, Harvey Langford, and Xavier Lindsay, and the rebranding of Kozzy Pickett from a small forward to a midfield machine who can still get among the goals. I also highlighted the dominance of captain Max Gawn in the ruck and the resurgence in form in a big way of midfield superstars Christian Petracca and Clayton Oliver.

    • POSTGAME: Sydney

      The Demons controlled the contest from the outset, though inaccurate kicking kept the Swans in the game until half time. But after the break, Melbourne put on the jets and blew Sydney away and the demolition job was complete.

    • CASEY: Northern Bullants

      The Casey Demons travelled to a windy Cramer Street, Preston yesterday and blew the Northern Bullants off the ground for three quarters before shutting up shop in the final term, coasting to a much-needed 71-point victory after leading by almost 15 goals at one stage. It was a pleasing performance that revived the Demons’ prospects for the 2025 season but, at the same time, very little can be taken from the game because of the weak opposition. These days, the Bullants are little more than road kill. The once proud club, situated behind the Preston Market in a now culturally diverse area, is currently facing significant financial and on-field challenges, having failed to secure a win to date in 2025.

    • GAMEDAY: Sydney

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons have a golden opportunity to build on last week’s stirring win by toppling Sydney at the MCG. A victory today would keep them firmly in the hunt for a finals spot and help them stay in touch with the pack chasing a place in the Top 8. Can the Dees make it two in a row and bring down the Swans?
