Jesse Hogan Injury Update?

Recommended Posts

After the last 4 or 5 years I am in the Worst Case Scenario school these days. I am utterly sick of it but it just keeps happening like some recurring nightmare!

A bit like your Hood Avatar, as soon as the Thunderbirds were clear of this menace, he would reappear in another episode just to remind us of the evil intent in some people.

I know I have got of the track, but I agree with your sentiments, it is like a recurring nightmare.

Why the hell can't we have some luck with injury, recruiting, Deaths etc etc sheeit has any club ever in any professional sport had our type of misfortune??

As soon as Barrett mentioned "concerns with a young Melbourne player" I looked up and just said, seriously what have we done to deserve this!?

Genuine talent that could be important to our future, and he's struggling with stress fractures! I'm seriously getting sick of our crappy luck.

Shouldve taken Wines.

Another quality decision by our then apprentice coach.

Geez that was a howler of a decision and we will pay the price for a long time yet unfortunately.

In the West we are two hours behind so FS not started yet, but I hope Gary took Barrett to task if not he should never let him forget any ridiculous claim that he may never play. FMD you only have to look at Tom Hawkins 2013 to 2014 to see how different a rest for a back injury can make.

But being the staged show it is they will continue to introduce this muck raker as the number 1 story breaker in the business.

Hoges had back issues when he was younger due to (non medical term) issues with growth spurts along the lines of the top half of the body outgrowing the bottom half but he got over them fine. As I have said before he is a 10 year player and this year whilst frustrating requires kid gloves to be used. My understanding from those who have played with him over here and word coming back is the club wants him to get everything 100% right and he is just really frustrated at not being able to get out there. Having done the preseason and the year in the VFL he was busting at the seems to play AFL this year.

Don't worry he will be fine, patience required

As I have said don't get me started but since you have I will say one thing. The decision not to draft a daring, courageous, fleet of foot, in and under in Ollie Wines will possibly go down as the worst recruiting blunder by our club EVER including Diamond Jim Tillbrook!

How did we get here? I am grieving over Hogan isn't that enough to deal with at one time?

Fleet of foot? You ever actually watched him play??

Pennant love your positive thinking. However this injury scenario has me worried for one. Kids who can't get on the park tend to go home. Scott Thompson spoke recently that 4 years of injury at MFC led him to seek a change back home at Adelaide. We can lament also about Jurrah and recently Mitch who went home, although not to play AFL footy. Not looking great in my mind.

Don't agree, Scott Thompson is also on record saying there were some issues between he and Danners.

Jurrah is just from a totally different background and Mitch Clark is beyond injury.

Luke Shuey & Scott Gumbleton are two I can think of off the top of my head who were injury riddled for the first couple of years and have felt indebted to the clubs who looked after them.

Hoges is a unique kid in more ways then one. Once the club keeps on the right track with Roos and recruiting the right players he will stay.

Funny how Barrett initially said "Hogan won't play again" until Lyon stopped him and made him be more specific in saying this year.

Especially after Clark's retirement, what a thing to say.

He loves feeding off other teams and peoples misfortunes.

I know it's his job but he doesn't have to be such a [censored] about it.

Wasn't it Barrett that reported that he'd miss the first 6 weeks of the season and DL went on a Barrett witch hunt?

Just asking.

If you keep guessing, you'll get some right.

    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.

    REMATCH by Meggs

    The Mighty Demons take on the confident Cats this Saturday night at the recently completed $319 million redeveloped GMHBA Stadium, with the bounce of the ball at 7:15pm. Our last game of 2023 was an agonisingly close 5-point semi-final loss to Geelong, and we look forward to Melbourne turning the tables this week. Practice match form was scratchy for both teams with the Demons losing practice matches to Carlton and Port Adelaide, while the Cats beat Collingwood but then lost to Essendo

    WELCOME 2024 by Meggs

    It’s been hard to miss the seismic global momentum happening in Women’s sport of late. The Matildas have been playing to record sell-out crowds across Australia and ‘Mary Fowler is God’ is chalked onto footpaths everywhere. WNBA basketball rookie sensation Caitlin Clark has almost single-handedly elevated her Indiana Fever team to unprecedented viewership, attendances and playoffs in the USA.   Our female Aussie Paris 2024 Olympians won 13 out of Australia’s all-time record 18 gol

    EPILOGUE by Whispering Jack

    I sit huddled in near darkness, the only light coming through flickering embers in a damp fireplace, the room in total silence after the thunderstorm died. I wonder if they bothered to restart the game.  No point really. It was over before it started. The team’s five star generals in defence and midfield ruled out of the fray, a few others missing in action against superior enemy firepower and too few left to fly the flag for the field marshal defiantly leading his outnumbered army int
