Phadraig 760 Posted April 24, 2015 Posted April 24, 2015 This guy is unbelievable.... going to be a top 3 key forward of the AFL in the coming years for sure. Top 1 wouldn't suprise me! He seems to win every one on one contest with ease. Have we finally found a superstar? 1 Quote
Demon Disciple 12,537 Posted April 24, 2015 Posted April 24, 2015 Just watching the WA after footy program with the usual muppets which includes Adrian Barrett (such a girls name) talk about Hogan. Asked if someone like Lachie Neal would be sufficient compensation to get Hogan back to Freo, they said no - no chance. I'm sorry but neal............HA. There is no-one on Freo's list that would be deemed as sufficient compensation. But that's not having a go at Freo or their list, because i believe that no player from any team's list would be deemed as sufficient compensation. Not even a fully fit Gary Ablett would be enough to tempt me................far from it. Quote
Phadraig 760 Posted April 24, 2015 Posted April 24, 2015 (edited) To trade for Hogan the minimum I would want is 2 top 5 picks or a very good player, If we are talking about Freo it's Fyfe. I have an unusual feeling as a Melbourne supporter but I think Jesse is going to stay with us! Would anyone here trade Hogan for Fyfe? Edited April 24, 2015 by Rafiki Quote
Akum 2,660 Posted April 24, 2015 Posted April 24, 2015 Put 50 on the dees at 4$ hulk hogan is a gun and will be for a long time, he has some special traits to him, I put Brayshaw in the same bracket as him. Hogan & Brayshaw our future Totally and absolutely disagree ... ... because from tonight's performance you've got to include VandenBerg, Salem, Michie & Newton as our future too. And Kent and Viney. And we haven't even seen Petracca yet. 5 Quote
Jesse Christ 2,884 Posted April 24, 2015 Posted April 24, 2015 I wouldn't trade Hogan for anyone, he is the guy we've been missing since Neitz left. 4 Quote

Grapeviney 9,929 Posted April 24, 2015 Posted April 24, 2015 After careful consideration, I've decided to sew a number 1 on the back of my suit jacket for work on Monday. 22 Quote
robbiefrom13 894 Posted April 24, 2015 Posted April 24, 2015 I wouldn't trade Hogan for anyone, he is the guy we've been missing since Neitz left. He's different to Neita, and one of the differences is excitement level. 1 Quote
robbiefrom13 894 Posted April 24, 2015 Posted April 24, 2015 How many members, people through the turnstiles, is this guy going to bring? Who's going to go next week now? 1 Quote
bluey 1,123 Posted April 25, 2015 Posted April 25, 2015 Hogan is not that big, Matthew Richardson was towering over him during an on field interview, the commentators mentioned it as well, 195cm is way overstated. Quote
praha 11,267 Posted April 25, 2015 Posted April 25, 2015 Hit the post on half-time siren. Heart's not in it. Confirmed going to Freo. 3 Quote
Henrietta Lumbago 331 Posted April 25, 2015 Posted April 25, 2015 Hogan is not that big, Matthew Richardson was towering over him during an on field interview, the commentators mentioned it as well, 195cm is way overstated. But he plays much taller, takes marks at full stretch, he has the complete package. Attacks the ball like Jonathon Brown and strut, has the agility of Nick Riewoldt, Quote

Richo is 198cm so of course he looks like he has that bit of extra height.. Quote
dees189227 12,515 Posted April 25, 2015 Posted April 25, 2015 (edited) Thanks Neeldy. You did something right. I for one would be absolutely devastated if Hogan is around in 10 years at our club. Freo WC stay away. The good thing is the media are finally talking about an exciting player from our club. Edited April 25, 2015 by dees189227 Quote
TeamPlayedFine39 8,525 Posted April 25, 2015 Posted April 25, 2015 Hogan was hardly modelling good posture during that interview. Was slouching and swaying all over the place. Richo, like all former player/commentators was standing bolt-upright and sucking it in. Quote
John Crow Batty 8,893 Posted April 25, 2015 Posted April 25, 2015 (edited) Hogan is not that big, Matthew Richardson was towering over him during an on field interview, the commentators mentioned it as well, 195cm is way overstated. That has a lot to do with wide lens distortion and camera angles. Those interviews always position the camera closer and to the right of the interviewer. They use a wide angle lens which makes the closer subject look far bigger than the one slightly further away. If the camera was positioned in front of Hogan's left side the percepted size diferential will be reversed making Hogan look bigger. Edited April 25, 2015 by america de cali 2 Quote
Henrietta Lumbago 331 Posted April 25, 2015 Posted April 25, 2015 I don't think any of us actually thought he would come in and be this good, my phone has been going crazy from mates all talking about Hogan. Quote
Moneider96 1,045 Posted April 25, 2015 Posted April 25, 2015 (edited) I don't think any of us actually thought he would come in and be this good, my phone has been going crazy from mates all talking about Hogan. have a look at bigfooty. They're all going crazy over him (except Western Bulldogs supporters...cause they have Tom Boyd, who will be better apparently).\ \ Also, no clubs supporters hate us more than Western Bulldogs. Why is that? Edited April 25, 2015 by Moneider96 Quote
olisik 4,060 Posted April 25, 2015 Posted April 25, 2015 Seeing that Garlett goal makes me think we could almost implement a Hogans paddock. The way he booted it forward and gave Garlett a free run at goal 2 Quote

Hogan's aura was lifting Richo off the ground by a good 6 inches... Just like he does for my aura. 3 Quote
Watts Jurrah Dunn? 735 Posted April 25, 2015 Posted April 25, 2015 Hogan at one end, McDonald at the other. Fingers crossed the bookends are sorted for the next 8 years. Both could be in the best few key forwards/defenders in the comp. So happy to know they will continue to be developed properly with Roos, Goodwin, McCartney. Bruce's "Hogan launches himself and takes a beauuuuuty" was just perfect. 3 Quote
Ethan Tremblay 31,389 Posted April 25, 2015 Posted April 25, 2015 Hogan is not that big, Matthew Richardson was towering over him during an on field interview, the commentators mentioned it as well, 195cm is way overstated. He is 195, I met him last season and he was much taller than my 186 (9cm taller in fact). Richo is 197 but he looks taller because he wears high heels. 4 Quote
