    Rising star is the kiss of death for MFC players

    Hogan is very good rising star or not

    This always amazes me.

    I watched one full game this weekend I have little idea who played well in other games.

    One assumes the selectors watched all games.

    It is possible someone played better than Hogan.

    I watched most games this weekend

    Hogan may not have been the absolute standout, but he has been consistently excellent in one of the toughest roles in one of the poorest midfield teams.

    How he hasn't earnt a nomination thus far is beyond a joke. He's in better form than some veterans going around.

    It's a bit of a nonce award, really. Jesse is clearly one of the most promising talents in the game. We know it, everyone in the footy world knows it, but because on any given week someone else plays a slightly better game, he doesn't get nominated.

    The way the system works makes me not feel too sad about him missing out. I don't need a RS nomination to know how good he is, and I don't reckon he does either.

    He's my rising star. That's all that matters.

    as I said a few weeks ago, (insert absurd hypothetical) if every list was suddenly cleared and all players went up in a mega-draft, our lad would be a chance to go #1 - hard to argue he'd slip past #5 anyway

    The irony in Jesse not being nominated yet is that he is going to easily win the entire thing, nothing is surer

    It still does not alter the fact he may not have been the best this weekend..

    You also have to take into account that he is a forward.

    Midfielders always get more votes that deep forwards or backs

    Just look at the Brownlow results.

    By the way the result is not out yet is it?

    Don't get me wrong, I think Hogan will be our best player since Robbie. But he has one minor weakness....can't kick further than 45-50 meters (accurately that is)!

    it does appear hes not a very long kick of the footy. Its about the only thing he cant do

    He did kick a good goal from 50m against Sydney. But I agree, it does lack a bit of penetration.

    He'll probably dob one from 55m on his left foot next week now we've said it.

    He loaded up twice yesterday and miss kicked both.

    He obviously thinks he is a good chance from long distance.

    I would not give up on him just yet.

    Jesse can roost a ball, don't worry about that!

    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

    Hopefully only a fortnight away!

    I noticed that Jay Schultz may be looking for a new home. Is there a Klink in the draft?

    Someone showed me this, taken from Big Footy

    Got the radio to listen to the umps mic. Bob Murphy was having a go at Hogan, saying "next big thing".

    Hogan: "Where's the bloke you signed?" And pointed at the Dogs bench

    • REPORT: Richmond

      The fans who turned up to the MCG for Melbourne’s Anzac Day Eve clash against Richmond would have been disappointed if they turned up to see a great spectacle. As much as this was a night for the 71,635 in attendance to commemorate heroes of the nation’s past wars, it was also a time for the Melbourne Football Club to consolidate upon its first win after a horrific start to the 2025 season. On this basis, despite the fact that it was an uninspiring and dour struggle for most of its 100 minutes, the night will be one for the fans to remember. They certainly got value out of the pre match activity honouring those who fought for their country. The MCG and the lights of the city as backdrop was made for nights such as these and, in my view, we received a more inspirational ceremony of Anzac culture than others both here and elsewhere around the country.

    • CASEY: Richmond

      The match up of teams competing in our great Aussie game at its second highest level is a rarity for a work day Thursday morning but the blustery conditions that met the players at a windswept Casey Fields was something far more commonplace.They turned the opening stanza between the Casey Demons and a somewhat depleted Richmond VFL into a mess of fumbling unforced errors, spilt marks and wasted opportunities for both sides but they did set up a significant win for the home team which is exactly what transpired on this Anzac Day round opener. Casey opened up strong against the breeze with the first goal to Aidan Johnson, the Tigers quickly responded and the game degenerated into a defensive slog and the teams were level when the first siren sounded.

    • POSTGAME: Richmond

      After five consecutive defeats, the Demons have now notched up back-to-back victories, comfortably accounting for the Tigers in the traditional ANZAC Eve clash. They surged to a commanding 44-point lead early in the final quarter before easing off the pedal, resting skipper Max Gawn and conceding the last four goals of the game to close out a solid 20-point win.
