Loving it.

Great initiative to get over and meet his folks as opposed to trying to convince the lad by himself in Melbourne.

Roos is set to fly to Perth to **meet with and interview Scott Burns** whilst also catching up with Hoges for a beer and a steak. Just as likely.

By now he must be on first name terms with the crew of that 5:30am long haul flight, surely!

If I was Jesse Hogan the first thing I'd ask Roos is why we're having this discussion given we're both contracted for the same amount of time. For our sake I hope we sign him up for life. But I don't see any reason for Hogan to rush things. He has a two year contract.

I think its more about reassuring both Jesse and his folks that the best place for Jesse is the MFC club, then locking him away. Talk about getting on the front foot!, loving your work so far Roosy!

You can start comparing the length of their contracts as soon as you tell me that Jesse Hogan is in the process of finding and mentoring the best young key forward in the country to take over for him once he leaves.

But looking at it objectively, Hogan would be mad to go anywhere near a contract until at least half-way through next year. Looking at it through red and blue glasses, "come on and sign, Hoges!"

I believe he's over here to put that house he bought in Wembley Downs back on the market too.

Might as well have a chat with Gaff, Shuey and S Selwood while he's here.

Roosey's next mission looks to be starting ... locking in Jesse Hogan long term:

So he was spotted on a perth bound flight !!! the irony :)

Why did you dangle that hope in front of us? I had completely forgotten about that Selwood rumour!

Now I'm going to be dreaming about that midfield all day.

For the conspiracy theorists among us, maybe those rumours surfaced as a result of actual sightings of Roos in Perth... because Roos was signed sealed and delivered some time ago, and was making preliminary approaches to potential successors and poaching player targets prior to it becoming public knowledge.

Can't get into trouble for "tapping up" a player or coach if you've not actually signed to work for the club yet...

Shouldn't Frawley be a greater priority than Hogan?

Frawley is in his prime with 1 year to go on his contract.

Hogan is developing and still has 2 to go.

This is about a lot more than Hogan...

You really think he hasn't spoken to Chip yet?

Do you think they are posting all their moves in the media??

    TRAINING: Wednesday 15th January 2025

    There were a number of Demonland Trackwatchers at Gosch's Paddock this morning to bring you their observations from Preseason Training. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS They were going hard at each other. The sims were in two 15 minute blocks. The second block finished a few minutes early, they gathered and had another 7 minutes at it. I think they were asked to compete, as they would play against an opposition. There was plenty of niggle, between some of them. At the end o

    Better late than never … and quite frankly, there’s very little to report other than that training took place at Casey Fields this morning, that Tracc was there nursing his rib injury and that some photographs are on the club’s social media including this one of Clarrie in Raging Bull stance that gives rise for confidence. The other news is that the club has a new train on player in 185cm Dandenong Stingrays midfielder Noah Hibbins-Hargreaves (love the hyphenated name which is just so fitti

    TRAINING: Thursday 9th January 2025

    Welcome back to Demonland for those like me who have been on vacation. I’m posting this with some trepidation because of a certain amount of uncertainty surrounding the return of preseason training in 2025 after a flurry of weddings including those of our coach, one of our superstar players and a former premiership champion player and bloke, not to mention the recent mysterious incident that occurred on the Mornington Peninsula.  I believe that the team reassembles this morning at Casey Fie

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session. BLWNBA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I arrived at around 1015 and the squad was already out on the track. The rehab group consisted of XL, McAdam, Melksham, Spargo and Sestan. Lever was also on restricted duties and appeared to be in runners.  The main group was doing end-to-end transition work in a simulated match situation. Ball mov
