he's a nail technician by trade

I bet he's done a bit of animal husbandry too.

If he is all these things then i am too as we share the same profession.

Which is the same profession as mine I think.

thank god they are not school teachers, then we would all be in trouble

imagine how good we would be with one of them at the club

Terrible misrepresentation in the title.

It's wholly unsurprising that Hogan isn't rushing to put pen to paper. He hasn't played a game, he doesn't know who is going to coach him in his first two seasons, he doesn't know what we'll be like and he doesn't know how he'll go at AFL level.

If you were him, why would you sign? Even if he is desperate to stay at Melbourne, he will do so much better by waiting and seeing who his coach his, what plans they have for him, how he fits in with the forward line/midfield, and he'll be able to push his value up if he takes his perceived form into AFL.

I'll go out there and say I actually think players like Jack Martin signing up this early are quite silly.

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.

we cant be so paranoid.

So much can happen in two years, there is NO WAY HE WILL LEAVE if Melbourne gets a gun coach, shows great improvement and signs some high profile players.

We will be fine, just because Jack Martin signed does not mean there is an issue that Jessie hasnt signed

Gold Coast football club has obviously built an organization that players want to play for.

MFC resembles a rabble atm and it's understandable if players don't want to play for MFC.

I love our club, but I also try and see things from a players perspective in terms of what is best for their future.

Players no doubt have love for the club, but there comes a time when staying at the club might not be best for their future.

We owe it to Jesse Hogan to create an environement that players want to play for and see a future in playing here.

PJ has said that as much.

Thank god for Peter Jackson.

Thanks captain obvious.

This is patently clear to any Melbourne supporter.

It's not news that players should be hesitant to sign with our club.

We all know the reasons why.

Why do some feel the need to beat us all over the head with it, with monotony?

So ignorant supporters don't keep whinging that Jesse Hogan hasn't signed, that's why.

It's understandable that people are abit quick to panic but really, why would anyone want to sign when they don't know who the board, president and coach are?

Lets worry about what NEEDS to happen NOW and worry about this type of stuff when and IF it happens.

If we are gunna worry about what's potentially going to happen in two yrs there will be a lot more threads coming.

You wouldn't know it's understandable judging by the responses in this thread, alot of whom have launched into the OP like a pack of teenage girls.

Yes it's premature, but it's something at the back of the mind of alot of Dees supporters, and the ones who say they haven't thought about it are telling porkies. A bit of empathy for a concerned fellow supporter wouldn't go astray, but that's never really been Deeland's strong suit. Attack and shame seems to be the go to option. Some "community".

Demonland is a crazy place even when we're winning let alone having a year like this, but this is a little over the top isn't it?

the kid has two years to run on his contract and he didn't even say he doesn't want to re-sign, hasn't even been offered an extension yet, need to allow some time for the process.

Not really. I do not like mob mentality and I see far too much of it on here, at a time when we should be showing support.

We're all worried and we're all hurting. Can you really blame some irrational thoughts entering the head with the last decade this club has had?

Please P-Man,

I will not hear of slurs and insults directed at all the fine people here on Demonland.

We are a fine,restrained and considered bunch of heretics and loonies,nutjobs and whackos.

"Teenage Girls lacking Empathy" really is insulting.

I reported this ages ago. The extension offer was ages ago - and at the time he held off in the same way that Watts has. To see what is going to happen - coach, board, direction etc. he isn't going to just leave at first chance. He was once told by someone at the club that they would send the heavies after him if he left.

    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

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.
