Locking down Jesse Hogan

Featured Replies

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

very good, not too mention talk to scotty burns. & maybe even a quick chat to Rossy L ?

 

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

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

Look at the comment it was in response to...

Abit of a man crush on this bloke.

A little like Bill Lawry and his affection for Merv Hughes.

It is clear he doesn't intend to fail.

 

Don't know who I have more of a man crush on. Go Roosy boy!


I can picture the press conference with Hogan, Frawley, Watts and Sylvia all announcing their contract extensions at the same time. Roos will talk about stability, culture and the long term view the club is taking and the consistency the succession plan will have in the careers of all young Melbourne players. It will be good vibes all round and carefully orchestrated in the lead in to trade week as we attempt to attract the likes of Swallow, Adams and co to join the club.

Well that's how I'd do it anyway . . .

He certainly seems to be hitting the ground running. It would be a huge boost to morale if he could give us a five-year deal with Hogan. Good for the successor as well.

man.. Hoges is 18 and hasn't played a game and is dead set the biggest asset at the club.. hard to think of anyone ever who has had so much of a buzz at his stage

cannot wait until season 2014

I can think of a couple. O'Meara and Martin for instance.

Yes that is exactly where Hogan sits, potential but has not played a game yet. Not sure I agree with this hype. Not sure too many coaches would be flying over the continent to see a player we already have signed, who is going nowhere for 2 years and who is yet to play a senior game. I reckon if I was Roos I have a lot on and I will catch up with Jesse face to face when he is back training. Happy to check in by phone or Skype in the meantime. But then I am old school.

as if, Martin wasn't even considered top pick at the same stage and O'Meara just like every no.1 before him.. this is different,, KPP who has shown heaps at VFL as a 17 year old, pretty much unprecedented

Can you divide your love between three?

Jackson, Roos and Hogan

Has he started chasing up Pedersen?............ Isn't his contract up in a couple years?

I doubt that's all he's heading over there for. Would be amazed if he didn't have a chat with scott burns and might have a chat with scott selwood as well.

I think he means jack martin not dustin martin

Hopefully Paul Roos Galvanizes this group like Steve Waugh did when he became the captain of the Australian cricket team!! Would love 16 straight haha!


Has he started chasing up Pederson?............ Isn't his contract up in a couple years?

I'm moving a new Demonland by-law that prohibits posters from taking the [censored] out of a player whose name you spell incorrectly.

Yes good point there may be some rich pickings in WA for coaches and perhaps some WAFL or WC players. I should never doubt Roosey.

Fixed.

So basically no one can take the [censored] out of Trengove, Moloney or McDonald?

No. Priorities, we have to sign Nicholson first.

Edited by Demon Jack

While he is over there I hope he speaks with Burns about him being the successor and locks that away.


only been coach for a fortnight? Seriously, time must move really slowly for the author of that article.

Hang on...if he's saying it's been longer than it really has been, then doesn't that mean time moves faster for the author of that article?

 

I'd much rather see Chip get an extension than Hogan at this point in time.

I was thinking that the 4 days has stretched to 2 weeks for him thus feels slow?

  • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

    When the Demons blew their 46-point lead at Marvel Stadium in Round 20 last year, the fallout was enormous. Like an event straight out of a Shakespearean tragedy, Melbourne’s final-quarter collapse left fans reeling and the club grappling with the aftermath.

  • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

    Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.
