Jesse Hogan Injury Update?

Featured Replies

 

Just a reminder

okay - i wasn't excited until I saw these again.

We are all dreaming if we think we will see him playing for Melbourne this year. He will only start running late this week, he basically needs to do a complete pre-season again so 8-10 week block of running with some ball work. I think 10 weeks best case to see him at Casey

Well, you are a doctor.

While I don't hold hopes of him playing this year (only because i don;t want them crushed again), 10 weeks at best to return to Casey? He hasn't just started walking this week.

He's missed 12 weeks, that's a little over the top.


Even with two months of running and training, that places him at Casey around round 18, and he could potentially play 2 or 3 games for the MFC at the end of the season. Better than nothing.

Would also help him get past a mental barrier he's been dealing with for two years now in finally getting his AFL debut. I think that's an important consideration heading into a 5 month break.

No longer suffering symptoms and has started running, provide we ease him in well i'd say 6 weeks isn't out of the question, i have worked with stress fractures quite abit in my job, and while i don't know much at all about Jesse's individual situation i have found that once they start running providing symptoms don't return recovery can be fairly quick

Obviously Jesse needs to be under strict instructions to inform the medicos at the first sign of pain though. We can't risk another hiccup because it's well and truly season ending.

I thought we weren't allowed to post porn videos on demonland.

Spewing I'm headed overseas on August 8.

That sounds the most promising report we've heard so far.

Please excuse my negativity but I will believe it when he runs out in a game for Casey Robbie

....when I see it

OldDee, if we didn't excuse your negativity we would have put you on ignore a long time ago. (sorry couldn't resist the poke - you are probably correct)

As a sort of aside to all of this the real gem of reality I see as bottle-able is that in the past we hung so many hopes on this player or that. These were our saviours, our only real hope of success. Hogans not on the park...and.... Mitch has left the park ....and ..... a handful of other things havent quite gone the expected paths. But we're still here and not just bumbling along we're actually getting somewhere , albeit slowly, but we are.

I'd love to see Hogan on the park this year but if he doesn't,,so be it. Not fussed

Watched the videos again... Damn I hope he loves Melbourne and never leaves!!


Great article in terms of terrific information from Mahoney. Exactly what some, including myself have called for. If it doesn't pan out that way then so be it but at please we have some clarity. Also sounds if they have managed him real ally well both in terms of the injury but also keeping him engaged. Love the idea of him working with the opposition analysts.

Round 19 Sunday, August 03

vs Brisbane @ the MCG

This is my predicted Hogan debut

yep I agree.

Actually on 2nd thoughts, I don't think he'll be ready for that game. So its either the Hawks game, or the Giants, our home game. If he gets thru to that point.

I think he'll be back around 12th July for Casey development for an easy run, at Port Melbourne.

I assume that would be games missed, not missing all that training. I think he's missed about the last month, with total rest. So he wouldn't be totally Unfit. He would be without any match condition, & I think hasn't run for the last month.

IMO he needs a 'mini Pre' build up on fitness work, & then eased into VFL games over 3 weeks. An easy hitout with Casey reserves (July12), then 3 games for Casey against Frankston, bye (training), the Northern Blues, & then the Borough @ Port.

I think he'll be ready to go against the Giants Rnd 21 at the MCG for his Debut.

Not a saviour BB just another piece of the puzzle and one that will give us more options, he's played a fair bit down back and to have him playing together with Chip and Pedo will ensure we have the flexibility to match or mismatch when the need arises.

Good article finally. As supporters if we don't see them on the track we have no idea. Great to see they are working on his core.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

    The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

  • CASEY: Frankston

    The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.
