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...

And when was the last time you saw a KPF as good as Hogan?

I love watching this kid play footy in a Melbourne jumper.

We had a poor game but last week was a great win.

We'll be a better team than North next year.

Granted that we need to be a much improved team next year to keep the Hulk.

He didn't hesitate extending his contract at the back end of last year, and we were playing much worse footy then. Relax.

He is already pretty close to elite. There is seriously nothing he can't do. Even his set shot routine has improved and I'd back him to convert most of his chances.

I'm sick of hearing this [censored] every day on here.

MFCSS in the extreme.

None of you know the kid, he could be the most loyal bloke going around, but wahhhh he's gunna leave us!

Get over it, worrying about [censored] that hasn't happened and may never happen is is a waste of time.

Just enjoy having a decent player for [censored] sake.

I've lived thru Scully-Trengove-Jurrah-Aussie-Clark.

It's a miracle I haven't had a nervous breakdown yet. MFCSS is to be expected.

Having said that, Hogan keeps me coming to games and I hope that will be the case until I'm 40 and he's 32.

 

Offer him the "buddy" deal tomorrow

Seriously this guy is an absolute beast. He'll be one of the stars of the comp in a few years - and he's ours! He bloody ragdolled that sook Thompson today, one of the premier defenders in the comp.

Will be dominating games Carey style in a year or two. And with Gus and Petracca feeding him the footy it's gonna be bloody formidable for other teams.

None of this guarantees anything of course - look how the Saints went with Plugger - but it gives us a bloody good start.

We all have.

It's no excuse though to be negative about our chances of keeping Hogan around.

Plus, if viney plays like he has we will be the best team in the league. The future is bright!!!

He will stay, you cannot deny we will be a great team. Get rid of the remaining dead wood whilst continuing our good recruiting and we will be set


Hogan is back into second for the contested marks across the league.

Hawkins - 43

Hogan - 41

Lynch - 40

Hooker - 39

Then a gap to Jack Reiwoldt at 33. It's a tight race.

Also up to 36 goals for the year which is nice.

Line up 150-200 women willing to have his children, I want a whole side full of Hogans off spring in 20 years time.

It is evident that this guy is something quite special. As a supporter nothing, nothing, could give us a shot in the arm or more desire to become a new member than by locking this bloke up on a long term deal ( Same for Maxxy). Message to the club,

"How about giving us an early Christmas Present"

Don't dare forget Brayshaw.

Anyone know what the little guesture to the sky was all about right after his first goal today...???

Yes hes good, but the Rising Star means just that, a rising star...... Hogan will be a star, without a shadow of a doubt.

I think he was the only player with the 'mark of respect arm band' on so I'm imagining it was personal and not club related.

Now favourite for the Rising Star with the bookies.

He needed a huge game after Cripps' blinder yesterday... boy did he deliver!

 

If this kid leaves the club I it will just about be curtains for half the supporter base

  • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

    The media has performed a complete reversal in its coverage of the Melbourne Football Club over the past month and a half. Having endured intense criticism from all quarters in the press, which continually identified new avenues for scrutiny of every aspect, both on and off the field, and prematurely speculated about the departures of coaches, players, officials, and various employees from a club that lost its first five matches and appeared out of finals contention, the narrative has suddenly shifted to one of unbridled optimism.  The Demons have won five of their last six matches, positioning themselves just one game (and a considerable amount of percentage) outside the top eight at the halfway mark of the season. They still trail the primary contenders and remain far from assured of a finals berth.

  • REPORT: Sydney

    A few weeks ago, I visited a fellow Melbourne Football Club supporter in hospital, and our conversation inevitably shifted from his health diagnosis to the well-being of our football team. Like him, Melbourne had faced challenges in recent months, but an intervention - in his case, surgery, and in the team's case, a change in game style - had brought about much improvement.  The team's professionals had altered its game style from a pedestrian and slow-moving approach, which yielded an average of merely 60 points for five winless games, to a faster and more direct style. This shift led to three consecutive wins and a strong competitive effort in the fourth game, albeit with a tired finish against Hawthorn, a strong premiership contender.  As we discussed our team's recent health improvement, I shared my observations on the changes within the team, including the refreshed style, the introduction of new young talent, such as rising stars Caleb Windsor, Harvey Langford, and Xavier Lindsay, and the rebranding of Kozzy Pickett from a small forward to a midfield machine who can still get among the goals. I also highlighted the dominance of captain Max Gawn in the ruck and the resurgence in form in a big way of midfield superstars Christian Petracca and Clayton Oliver.

  • POSTGAME: Sydney

    The Demons controlled the contest from the outset, though inaccurate kicking kept the Swans in the game until half time. But after the break, Melbourne put on the jets and blew Sydney away and the demolition job was complete.

  • CASEY: Northern Bullants

    The Casey Demons travelled to a windy Cramer Street, Preston yesterday and blew the Northern Bullants off the ground for three quarters before shutting up shop in the final term, coasting to a much-needed 71-point victory after leading by almost 15 goals at one stage. It was a pleasing performance that revived the Demons’ prospects for the 2025 season but, at the same time, very little can be taken from the game because of the weak opposition. These days, the Bullants are little more than road kill. The once proud club, situated behind the Preston Market in a now culturally diverse area, is currently facing significant financial and on-field challenges, having failed to secure a win to date in 2025.
