The Incredible Hulk - Jesse Hogan

I reckon his approach is consistent. Ugly and stuttering but consistent.

Bit like a Lee Trevino golf swing.

    I read the negative comments last week and didn't comment, because he's not above scrutiny and everyone is entitled to their view.

    However, some of the reactions towards one of the best key forwards to enter the game in the past 20 years was astonishing.

    Apparently, some of you didn't like his "attitude". FMD. That's what makes him the player he is and will be.

    Of all the things to moan about some chose Hogan. It beggars belief.

    He has kicked 28 goals in 13 games. He will likely kick over 40.

    He should win the Rising star without question.

    Great get rickyt. Ugly starting position, great contact.

    I thought his kicking at goal today was good but he missed some targets further up the ground. Did some very silly things that lead to turnovers. Trying to do a bit too much. The kid will learn

    I agree that he is the least of our problems, and he could absolutely be the best key forward in the game. However as you said, he isn't above criticism and his body language today was miles ahead of last week and he also played much better, which I don't think is a coincidence.

    Yeah, the difference between Jonathan Brown and Matthew Richardson. Who would you choose? I want to see him educated right. He is our biggest player hopeful for decades.

    Like any young player Jesse is going to have down patches, he has had that in the previous couple of weeks but he was back to some good form today. Strangely enough though his form fluctuates with when the midfielders decided whether or not they will look to hit a leading target of just bomb it in in hope.

    His first year has already exceeded my expectations and he continues to grow. Next week against the saints is a real opportunity for both Jesse and Melbourne. He's already shown an ability to tear them apart, nothing like building an early liking to playing a certain team, and we can really use it to springboard the season.

    Jurrah :(

    Liam Jurrah is by far the biggest wasted talent I’ve seen in my time following footy. Such a sporting tragedy and an indictment on both him and Australia’s failure to support indigenous culture in a positive way.

    Even with a kick from the goal square he did a long and stuttering run up. I don't think Hogan's kicking is much of an issue, it's not the best, for it's far from ordinary

    28.11 for the year. His approach doesn't inspire confidence but it seems to work. He's no Ben Holland, that's for sure!

    • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

      Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

    • CASEY: Williamstown

      The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

      Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    • AFLW REPORT: St. Kilda

      The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
