We could lose Jesse Hogan

Featured Replies

Posted

Its been reported today that Jesse wont agree to a contract extension.

He says he just wants to concentrate on getting a senior game next year.

Gold Coast has managed to get an extension out of Jack Martin, butvwe cant do the same with Hogan.

If he doesnt sign by the end of next year, he will be out of contract and everyone will be after him, no doubt throwing obsene amounts of money at him.

Im worried we might lose him.

 

Reported where? (why don't people provide links to back up these kinds of statements?)

 

Coupled with the fact he seems obviously homesick (check out his Instagram feed) and there are worrying signs.

But then, who could blame an 18 year old kid for not wanting to commit to the worst club in the league, which happens to be on the other side of the country to his family.


Even out of contract players need the club to agree to a trade in order to leave. We can just say no.

Otherwise they have to risk going to the draft and ending up somewhere they don't want to be.

No one else will get sucked in the way we did with Luke Ball.

I for one am not panicking.

Says we haven't even offered him a contract extension, nothing about him not agreeing to anything.

Thanks for that... so DeeZee has either cited a different (anonymous) source, or he is suffering from a rather extreme case of MFCSS.

Your right im probably just paranoid

well fmd if the sky isnt falling again :huh:

There are some panic merchants about arent there lol

Thanks for that... so DeeZee has either cited a different (anonymous) source, or he is suffering from a rather extreme case of MFCSS.

or he had a grip on something else

Thanks for that... so DeeZee has either cited a different (anonymous) source, or he is suffering from a rather extreme case of MFCSS.

the latter im thinking

he is contracted til 2015, i know for a fact he is loving melbourne so im not concerned at all infact well done to the young man.


Is it too early to put Hogan on the Demonland banner?

Your right im probably just paranoid

Yes. You are. Extremely.

Please refrain from hastily creating threads in the future.

Geez demonland is a happy place to get info.

Bloody hell nearly every thread is bad news (or supposedly bad news)

I need to find my happy place.

Have we offered him a contract extension - maybe. I'm sure we would've at least discussed it.

But it's not really an issue.

And his homesickness is likely real but again it's not a huge problem right now. We've deliberately managed him and given him plenty of trips home to Perth so he stays healthy and fresh mentally and physically. I fully expect as he starts playing games over the next 2 seasons he'll get more of a sense of pride for the jumper. Plus he'll keep making new friends and settling in.

Every club has had guys who are completely homesick early and then once they settle in can't imagine ever leaving.

The most important thing we can do for Hogan is turn up next year and cheer when he does something good and not be too hard on him if he struggles to adapt to AFL level straight away.

we have not at this point even tabled a formal offer is my understanding, i suppose someone may have bought up the idea with jesse but a five year contract now just adds un needed and un wanted expectations right now.

Fact is there is no contract extension for Hogan, and no one knows if one has been tabled or not.

Gold Coast have extended Martins contract and we havent.......just saying.

Ill create a thread if i want to and if i think it will create discussion.

Im not a serial ridiculous thread creator like some on here .

Yes. You are. Extremely.

Please refrain from hastily creating threads in the future.

Jose Mourinho?

Jose Mourinho?

Whatever happened to that guy? A year ago his posts were everywhere.

 

Jack Martin signs contract extension and Jesse Hogan doesn't so Hogan must be gone. Isn't the Human brain amazing in how it can make logic jumps like that?

When Hogan's contract expires in two years from now he'll have a nice Melbourne local girlfriend, will be living with a couple of his best mates that he'll have been playing footy with for 3 years, and will have had a taste of the absolute worship that will come with being a star footballer. Even if he's homesick now, if he still is by late 2015 I'll be staggered.

Find him a Melbourne girl ( the place, not the club ) ..... that should do the trick

  • AFLW REPORT: Port Adelaide

    Well, that was a shock. The Demons 4-game unbeaten run came to a grinding halt in a tense, scrappy affair at the sunny, windy Alberton Oval, with the Power holding on for a 2-point win. The Dees had their chances—plenty of them—but couldn't convert when it mattered most. Port’s tackling pressure rattled the Dees, triggering a fumble frenzy and surprising lack of composure from seasoned players.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

    The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

  • CASEY: Frankston

    The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.
