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

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp.

    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.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players.

Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
