The Rising Star Thread - Congratulations Jesse Hogan!

so you're suggesting you'd be calling Nathan Jones a [censored] if he tweeted that

you're a liar

I would, Cripps is a worthy winner.

But let's face it, Jones wouldn't. Not on Twitter, and that's the difference.

But I must be wrong cos you are already calling me a liar cos you are the almighty knower of all.

Hail, hail, hail.

Can you please tell me what I want for dinner tonight.

Just enjoy Hogan's win. Why do you care so much about looking out for Bryce Gibbs?

I'm not sure why there's such angst out there. Carlton supporters should have a look at the 2003 Rising Star result. Nick Reiwoldt won with Chris Judd runner up. St Kilda supporters have been very happy with Reiwoldt and West Coast/Carlton have been equally pleased with Judd. There's room out there for both Hogan and Cripps to be superstars. I look forward to watching them both play for years to come.

 

If cripps had won and <insert senior melbourne player> had made a tweet like that you'd all be saying was a legend he is for standing up for the truth and supporting his mate and blahblahblah

No we wouldn't, we'd be saying he's a [censored] and shouldn't air his stupid opinions in public.


Blues....Classy !!!

Congratulations to Hogan. What a star and I cannot wait to see our forward line next year with Petracca playing across half forward. If the hype for Petracca is true then he would be well placed to win the award next year.

Bryce Gibbs is a [censored]. Who gives a [censored] what he thinks

And it's not as if Cripps finished the season completely empty handed...

Big, bad bustling Barry said it took him 4 (I think) years to feel comfortable playing as a key forward. Cam said it wasn't till he was 26. They can't believe how Jesse has done it in his first year. Better than Carey at the same time. Has a huge presence


Barry Hall and Cam Mooney just dribbling and dribbling hard about Jesse on 360. These boys are in awe

Is it dribble from their mouth's or somewhere else...?

dribble was from the mouth, the somewhere else was a gusher

It will be interesting to see how they both go next year. Second year players often drop off a bit but I can't see Jesse being one. He already took the oppositions best defender and was often double teamed. So there's not much more they can throw at him. Plus he'll be even bigger. Cripps on the other hand will get tagged from the get go and will find it harder. Much like rich

They just reported on sunrise that Jesse Hogan has declared he wants to be a one club player.

That's nice....i remember Woey saying the same thing on a marketing snippet after he won the Brownlow. We then sold him up the river to the Pies a few years later.

A lengthy contract extension would be better than any talk.

This was his second year...which means next year he's going to be truly awesome.

I was thinking 2nd year - on the park! Given he hardly played a game in his 1st.

Let's hope you are correct LD


Hogan would look at a player like that with contempt no doubt.

I very much doubt that. Why does Watts even get a mention in this thread. Amazing. This might inspire him, and others in the team, to reach greater heights.

When we stop losing to them, even as wooden spooners, they probably won't have as much to say LD

AFL 360 from last night, with Jesse interviewed

AFL 360 from last night, with Jesse interviewed

Super stuff thx HH

Apparently McCarthy from GWS has asked to be traded back to WA. Here is hoping Freo take him and leave Jesse alone.

LEAVE JESSE ALONE!!!


So just watched the short highlights package on the club website, something that really strikes me about him is that he is always quick to acknowledge when one of his teammates has worked hard to provide him with the opportunities for goals. Maybe I'm reading a lot into it but to me it shows a camaraderie with him and his teammates, hopefully this idea that the young core of this club are truly in it together.

Thanks for posting the 360 interview. He speaks well and has a great attitude to his football. I particularly liked when he said he didn't buy in to comparisons to other greats of the game; that he wanted to build his own brand as a player. Love it!

As an aside, I am amazed at how thoroughly boozed Robbo was. He has the close-talking-embarrassing-drunk-uncle shtick down.

Not only that he kept on making references to getting hammered. Must have been at least 5.

He also said harmes played well on Friday night. Only two days out.

The hilarious part actually was that he broke the bombers going to Adelaide story but didn't realise why ie that they had broken a commitment to ask other clubs first before talking to assistant coaches. He was clueless. Probably thought he was doing a solid for efc when in fact he put them right in it. His only genuine story and it was a mistake. He did a Homer. Gold

Haha, gold.

Did Gibbs hire you to protect him from shadows or something? Chill the [censored] out.

The truth? There's no truth to the result being a joke, at all. It's down right disrespectful to Hogan is what it is.

The truth is the best young forward in forever beat a very good young midfielder. Gibbs is [censored] that couldn't crush his own sour grapes.

  • 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?

    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.
