Jesse Hogan Injury Update?

[hardtack 10,984]

You provide some value with your training reports, but my god, these comments make me cringe.

Can't see why... taken in the context of a conversation (as opposed to an isolated comment) it would probably just elicit a smile and appreciation for the thought. hardly worth singling out for criticism.

I don't see why. Surely it's just a lighthearted comment about how much we are anticipating him getting out there.

I don't have the stat's but I am guessing that over the journey, a lot more players have stayed at their interstate clubs than have left. Eg two of the biggest names Franklin and J Brown. The Swans & Lions are basically full of players from interstate. There must be a large percentage of interstaters in the interstate teams as well. If you look at the total I'm sure more stay than go. Jesse is apparently loving living in Melbourne. Mitch is from Perth and is staying even though he's not at the club. "At the moment." After that interview last week it wouldn't surprise me to see him rookied and playing next year. What would that do for Jesse. Quite a lot, I would say.

Pavlich is by far the biggest.

Adelaide and Port have tried to woo him for years, but he stayed and stayed and is still staying...

Helps that he part owns half of the bars and cafes in Freo....

Jesse did about 40 minutes running, none flat out, this morning at training, watched closely by 3 members of the fitness/medical staff.

I asked him at the end paraphrasing "it's sweet mate", "no probs, just taking it slowly" "did a bit"

Told him there were 30 pages of nervousness on Demonland "tell them not to worry"

He also was smiling and giving thumbs up to any MFC staff who asked him how he was going.

You've ruined everything with that insensitive, thoughtless comment. And I bet you made it worse by calling out 'Go Dees'. Where the hell do you get off rocking up to training and communicating with the players? You probably asked Lucas Cook about his form too!

[Curry & Beer 5,444]

i must say I have a (probably unjustified) wariness of comments like that. There was a lot of it going on in the Scully debacle. It's sort of like the guy who tells his girl 'please don't ever leave me I would be nothing without you'.. she ends up leaving him for being pathetic and desperate. Half-joking.

[Return to Glory 8,486]

I reckon it's grain of salt stuff for players these days Curry.

Chill! Making a mountain out of a molehill. Players are not that precious.

Not true sold his shares in the only pub he had in Fremantle

What are you? His accountant?

I've heard otherwise.

[Pennant St Dee 13,415]

You heard wrong re the pubs, was involved but has moved on to other interests

[John Crow Batty 8,886]

Why, they do know they have supporters, and they do know there are fan forums, and they know I post on here, so they use me to answer questions for the supporters out there, Jesse knows every supporter wants him on the field and he actually appreciates the support

If they know you post here then I doubt players tell you anything useful. The party line from a to z your ears hear.

Fair enough....

[Pennant St Dee 13,415]

Fair enough....

Sorry Jumbo didn't mean to come across as a know all but a close friend has a few business interests with Pav and a couple of other former Dockers

Of course, thanks....didn't think so at all.

My news is a tad dated.

[Satyriconhome 10,880]

My quote never works here, if you have read my previous posts on training, I explained to Jimmy Toumpas why I was asking questions and would post answers on Demonland and he didn't have an issue , and he answered truthfully, I also ask permission every time as well, players don't have an issue, they get enough crap on Twitter, anybody can talk to the players, most like the interaction...told Jesse jokingly and he said he was cool

Just what we need, add more pressure to the kid!

We have already lost one Key Forward this year who stuggled with pressures of expectations and injuries...

[daisycutter 29,926]

oh come on.....really!

[chookrat 4,268]

It's unbelievable and quite hilarious how concerned some people on here re Saty's joke to Jesse re 30 pages of nervousness on DL I couldn't imagine Jesse and his Manager at the table finalisig a new contract only to say "There is one matter we'd like to clear up. Apparently some deprived supporters on DL are nervous and have a 30 page thread on Jesse's bake injury. We feel that with the added expectations that come with such a thread that Jesse wishes to return home".

FFS relax, we've got this.

There's some precious princesses on here...

I can see where Machsy is coming from.

AFL player are reminded and warned constantly NOT to browse supporter forums because of the rubbish that gets written about players. This is a fact. The AFL are trying to drum this into club and then into the players.

So for Saty to say there are 30 pages of demonland nervousness about Hogan, he would know log on this website and see all the pressure thats written about him. Sure most of it is pretty positive

But for someone like Jimmy Toumpas who knows about Demonland because Saty mentioned it to him. He would log on only to see most of you people bagging and saying what a dud player for pick 4, should have taken Wines, Picket Fence getting stuck into him etc.. He sees half of this and his confidence is already hit and it plays on his mind that supporters think he is soft. It has a psychological effect on him and most time its why most young players struggle of the metality side of the game.

Now Saty might say that the players would not read this but when he mentions Demonland to players they will take notice and have a look. They will even say they dont read but they do. Players do really wanna know what supporters think of them. Its something very hard to resist as a player.

Hi Jesse!

[beelzebub 23,390]

mine too

[monoccular 17,701]

I may be wrong but I thought this thread was about Hogan a current member of the playing roster!

I presume that you mean our playing list - 'playing roster' is another bloody American Imperialist intrusion into our game !

You've ruined everything with that insensitive, thoughtless comment. And I bet you made it worse by calling out 'Go Dees'. Where the hell do you get off rocking up to training and communicating with the players? You probably asked Lucas Cook about his form too!

I suspected some irony, or sarcasm perhaps.
