9/10 judges giving him 5 votes. Worthy winner. Congrats Jesse.

'Shifter' Sheehan the only judge awarding Cripps 5 votes.

Just as well he is not working in the young talent and development area of the AFL???

    And it might be appropriate to just quietly thank Mark Neeld for getting Hogan to the club.

    Bull dust

    I could have made that decision

    You can thank the greedy Scully clan for that!

    I think I can be overlooked how well the MFC has developed Jesse via the VFL in 2013 and then rehabilitated Jesse in 2014 after his back issues.

    Well done to all the crew at the club who've go this colt firing!

    And well done Jesse!

    The arrogant way he struts around the football field is a sight to behold! He knows he can't be beaten if he's given an even run at it. Has the same aura as Carey, Brown and Brereton.

    Like a roided-up peacock.

    I thought Jesse spoke really well in the SEN interview after the official celebrations.

    Some things he mentioned:-

    - when he was struggling early this year Goodwin told him to take a few days off and go surfing at Torquay.

    Goodwin seems really in tune with the players.

    - he likes that we have a good core group of players who go hard at the ball and we will get more.

    - he gave Jack V the nod as the next captain!

    - he was really looking forward to playing with that core group over the coming years.

    (I took that as he will sign an extension ;))

    BTW, he picked the trifecta! In an interview about a month ago he said he thought the 3 favourites were Cripps, Sheed and himself! He wanted one of the 3 to win because they were all from WA!!

    Well done, Jesse.

    The year has ended on a high!

    Watch what you say, WADA might be watching and we don't want any rumours to start.

    "The 195cm Claremont product made the most of his opportunities, with his goalkicking accuracy (62 per cent) better than any of the top 10 players in the Coleman Medal race."

    And every week the TV commentators say how bad his approach to his deliberate kick at goal is...... It does look weird but....

    It was good to hear this

    I'm sure a lot of the Gold Coast and GWS players have said similar things about building together as a young group. But I think there is a better understand on what needs to happen next at Melbourne and I think the young playing group are buying in.

    My favourite line is when asked about getting along with other young players at Melbourne he states, "we all have that competitive edge", I believe he's referring to Brayshaw, Petracca, ANB and Harmes. He talks about liking playing with Brayshaw because he "puts his head over the pill". If Melbourne can continue to surround Hogan with hard edge players like the young group we have, and of course players that will deliver the ball with more precision and efficiency into the forward line, then there is hope that we can keep this gem of a forward.

    Now we just need to sign him on. Preferably longer then 2 more years where he will be 22. gulp...

    "I can't say (if I will ever move back to play in WA)," he said. "Obviously I am enjoying my time here and the list we are obviously growing is going to be pretty unbelievable I think. It is pretty obvious and I think in a couple of years we are going to be a pretty good side. I can't be certain but at the moment I am very happy where I am and enjoying my football." Hogan

    I hope we can improve a little bit quicker over the next "couple of years"

    Well that certainly puts a dampener on things. He could have at least lied to us.

    • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

      The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Western Bulldogs

      The Demons lacked some polish but showed a lot of heart and took it right up to the Bulldogs in an attempt to spoil their finals hopes ultimately going down by a goal at the MCG.
