Hoges probably just found out that his back is completely rooted and couldn't sign quick enough :)

No wonder it is stuffed, having to carry the weight of our expectations on his shoulders. :)

Im cool either way with the signing of JH.

I found it interesting what dunstall and healy said about him the other night.

It sort of renewed my interest in the current welfare of JH.

Glad hes onboard.

An outstanding commitment by Jesse .............. an outstanding investment by the Melbourne Football Club. Our star is most definitely on the rise, in every sense of the word.

Edit: I spelled his name wrong. Better not do that on Demonland!

Just got off the phone to my best mate who has spoken to Jesse today, she said you can't wipe the smile off his face, absolutely stoked he is staying another couple of years

Can confirm there has been really strong interest from not just west coast and Freo but other clubs as well but Jesse knows how much we have invested in him and he's got some really good mates here in Jack viney Jimmy toumpas and Dean Kent

He's in for a significant pay rise but I wasn't told an exact figure and also Jesse is hoping to play against the lions but the club may make himwait an extra week, he's really working hard to get back asap

Small joke there Macca.

You little Ripper - no need to rush him back ..... but wouldn't it be great if he plays against Lions, WC,GWS and North !! 3 or 4 wins at the tail end of this season would invigorate the whole football department to make bigger in roads and attack the preseason with some real gusto and optimism!!

Have to love the dream

I was impressed when Dunstall said Hogan was impressive. If he thinks that there is def something there.

Same,after all the normal Bs we hear from experts,every now and then you know when Dunstall is serious.

This was one of those times.

Dunstall is a really good footy man - articulate and has a brain

just quietly.... :unsure:

am pretty stoked :)

The club gets so many slaps in the face and heres a young lad, obviously talented who WANTS to be part of the resurgence.

Attitude is a lot in anything and that sort of outlook says a lot about where we're heading.

and Im still looking forward to his first game !!

We all said similar things when Trengove re-signed, look how that turned out !

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.
