    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: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
