Now that he has signed a 2 year extension (virtually 3 years), it doesn't bother me if he does or doesn't debut this year.

Had he not signed, i would've definitely played him to give him a taste and increase the MFC appeal to him, but we obviously appeal plenty with his agreeing to an extension.

my info is that Jesse will make his debut against West Coast infront of his family if he gets through this game okay.

Roos and Mission basically told him he could play this week but strongly encouraged him to have a week at Casey first

He's essentially been ready to play for a couple of weeks but the club is not willing to take any chances

Sorry, but the real Paul Roos thinks differently:

really?

“If he plays really, really well this week – then next week, he might be a slight chance."

I'd say he left the kimono slightly open

Typical Roos.

If he kicks 2-3 goals in a Casey side virtually unable to win a game, I'd say he's a shoe-in for next week.

The Kid has one a B&F in 2's has been training the house down for a month and people want him to go to Casey and suffer 3 weeks of rubbish delivery , scoreboard beltings , very little excitement and sarounded by 6 or 7 blokes who know that there careers are finished and don't want to be there.

Exactly - he could get that same experience playing for the seniors. Baddum-tish.

Wasn't Watts played on Queens B/Day for revenue reasons? I know the answer!

Exactly why history should not repeat itself. Hogan kicking goals early next season will have the exact same effect on membership. If there is such a thing....

:rolleyes:​ Your reply brought a smile to my face Demonsterative. It was just a bit of gentle pot-stirring on my part. I have total faith in the current administration to make the correct call for all the right reasons.

You might be right dc, but the kimono vision disturbed me a little too much...

Think I might be the only 'lander at the G tomorrow. Sounds like everyone's making the long trip to Craigieburn to see Jesse Hogan play. I also heard that BBO is having an open bar at his place in Romsey after the game. Enjoy!

True. He's certainly having a late night tonight putting up the decorations for the 'land clan tomorrow.

Yes, there is still some friction over that matter dc. However, I am now retiring for the night in order to make an early start for Crazyburn tomorrow. (And to allow at least two breakfast stops on the way)

Not even for the free pizz at BBOs house afterwards Biff?

You know it's the cheap plonk from Aldi poured into a decent bottle.

Don't be lured by empty promises Moon.

Anyway, you are still fragile from the last encounter so i wouldn't risk it.

Wise you are. Skulling from goon bags isn't my thing. I'll stay clear.

Anyone still think Hogan is ready for next weeks game in WA? Did he play "really, really well" in the VFL today?

Anyone what thought before today that he would debut next week is deluded

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session.

    A couple of intrepid Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock for the midweek Preseason Training Session to bring you the following observations. Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership. Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9. A huge achievement in what was a dominant season by North. For Melbourne fans, the season was unfortunately one of frustration and disappointment
