The Incredible Hulk - Jesse Hogan

McQueen
in Melbourne Demons

Featured Replies

He kicked a goal from just outside the 50. Therefore the kick was at least 55m.

I think he's sorted it out.

He had tight hamstrings a few weeks ago hence the reason he struggled kicking long.

As he was lining up for that kick i said to my uncle that his only downside was he wouldn't be able to make that 50+ distance... Well he proved me wrong (and i was happy about it)

    It does not matter that he cant kick goals from 40+ meters, he will take heaps of contested marks close to goal, and he will improves his kicking from 40 +

    You can watch the goal here http://www.afl.com.au/video/smart-replay

    He kicked it right on the 50 metre line and it cleared the fence Was definitely his best strike so far in his young career.

    I also think that his kicking penetration drops late in games as he gets tired

    He had another shot from around 50m later in the game and it wasn't quite as good

    He obviously is still working on his fitness, and with this improving so will his kicking. We often see skills drop in young players as the game and the season wears on.

    Been a lot of industry chatter this week after that damning non-effort vision from Cripps last week.

    One more blinder from Hogan and it's his.

    Might come down to dees v carlton

    Viney to Cripps will be the showdown of the century.

    And by showdown, I mean Viney burying Cripps' head into the turf for 120 minutes.

    Surely it's the easiest way around to double your money. Couldn't believe he was still paying $2.15 last night.

    Jesse simply has to win the rising star.

    Going to finish with 40 goals and number 1 in the comp in contested marks! Cripps should not even be in the conversation

    Cripps should be in the conversation, but only to say: “Cripps would win any other year, but Jesse Hogan is a once in a generation forward, so…."

    Why not? I havent seen a first year midfielder as good as him for a while, and it's not like he can feed off a Gary Ablett like O Meara did in his first ,Cripps had 35 disposals yesterday...

    How Cripps slipped so far down the draft I will never know.

    Didn't he get taken higher than expected? Everyone was saying too slow.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

    • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

      A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

    • CASEY: Frankston

      The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

      Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

    • 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.
