Cancel the current contract and offer him 7 on big $ from next year and take him through to 2022 by which time he'll have multiple premiership medals.

That's more like it

 

We average 40 inside 50's a game compare to the good teams who are getting around 60 inside 50's.

Not to mention the QUALITY of those entries and the fact that Hogan only has Dawes as a senior big man helping him out/taking away defenders. Imagine Hogan playing 3rd fiddle to Buddy and Tippet! Makes him seem outrageously good when you factor all this in. Sorry, lid on.

I was waiting for you to bring up the inside 50 count, maybe you have in another thread.
 

The most impressive thing is that he has rarely if ever had a clear, direct pass to him on the chest on the lead. He often cracks it and teammates who bomb it in long or too short. Most of his marks have been contested which says a lot because once we get the decent delivery we at least know he will still make an effort to make a contest when there isn't an opportunity for a clear mark.

“He’s [Frawley's] missed about a month of footy, so he’s going to be vulnerable, in terms [of his match fitness],” Dawes said “I imagine he’ll go to Jesse Hogan, [with] him being the No.1 forward, but if he comes to me, that’s certainly what I’ll be trying and do – work him around and try to exploit his lack of match fitness.”

This thread wasn't on the front page and I thought that was disrespectful to Jesse Hogan.

I love how he has 21 touches, 9 marks and 3 goals, which may well be as good a game as a key forward has had for us in a decade (and probably the most complete forward performance in the AFL this round), yet supporters are neither shocked nor surprised. I think we supporters may be getting 'superlative fatigue' with Jesse.

He's a 20 year old playing his 7th game. He's just just phenomenal.

Will finish with 40 goals and maybe a spot in our B&F top 5. He's played an important role in all of our wins so far. Kick it to Hogan more often and we'll win more times than not.

Bob that is so funny you should say that. I was thinking whilst at the game (after his brilliant effort to get around a player on the outer wing - no ground game Leigh, really?) that i can't wait for his 'break out game'. He just looks so rock solid.

3 lazy goals and 20 touches. His break out game will be a monster.

By the by i loved after we got a goal in the second (i think Newtons free kick goal) that came after jessie either dropped a Lumumba drilled pass or didn't quite get to it he went to HL and apologized. Also dirty on himself for dropping a couple. Love it.

I want him to kick 10 against Carlton.

Otherwise he's dead to me.

Just kidding. I love you Jesse. Don't ever leave me.

Made my night Jaded.

Thanks for the laugh.

When he kicked his 3rd and the lead was out to 33 with 1.5 qtrs left.. i was rubbing my hands thinking here we go.. but alas, not to be.. but that bag of 6 is only a matter of weeks away, no doubt about it

That handball to Pedersen.... holy [censored].

Holy [censored]. I dont think this kid has a weakness in his game.

Is it possible to love Hogan too much?

His work rate is phenomenal. The handballing, ground level work. It's hard to keep track of him as he can lead anywhere and be a target within a few seconds.


*than.

Funny though, well done :)

To be fair, right or wrong, it's what most kids would say these days.

Leigh Matthews at one stage during the game was trying to tell listeners it was when the ball was on the ground.

Pre-amazing handball.

His hair is terrible.

Does that help reduce the love?

Get a haircut Jesse, sick of your shenanigans

I'm sorry Jesse, I don't mean it, I love you so much. Your hair is fine.

I was expecting Matthews to retract after that......waited......waited......nada.

  • PREGAME: Essendon

    Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

  • NON-MFC: Round 04

    Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

  • POSTGAME: Geelong

    The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0–4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.

  • GAMEDAY: Geelong

    It's Game Day, and reinforcements are finally arriving for the Demons—but will it be too little, too late? They're heading down the freeway to face a Cats side returning home to their fortress after two straight losses, desperate to reignite their own season. Can the Demons breathe new life into their campaign, or will it slip even further from their grasp?
