If we were to sign him up to an extension at the end of the year as it was alluded to in the HUN article, well, I think I would shed tears of joy, excitement and relief.

*gives keys to "war chest"

 

Tom Pretoro from Jesse's management company was just interviewed on SEN and said they will sit down with the Dees during the summer to discuss his contract.

He went on to say that 'Jesse will be part of Melbourne's future for a long time to come.'

Almost form the horse's mouth!

Lets just hope his manager isn't full of horse shite like the other managers generally are.

Dear Melbourne, please give him whatever he wants.... money, cars, houses, prostitutes, the world. Just give it to him, lock him away for 20 years and lets all move on.

No he didn't, why twist what he said?!

He said "Jesse is a huge part of Melbourne's future", which is very different.

I wish he'd said what you claimed but it's not true. People find strange ways to help them sleep at night...

Same thing.

Quite different. Saying he is a big part of the future could mean anything really... 'the future' is contained within his current contract.

Saying that he will be at the club for a long time to come is another thing altogether and insinuates that he'll be signing a long term contract.

Anyway, Paul said to look for the positives, so I'm taking this to mean he'll be signing a 7 year extension.

It's not at all, never did he say anything remotely as strong as "Jesse will be a part of Melbourne's future for a long time to come".

Ugh great. That is completely different and stating the damn obvious

I suppose sitting down with us is a good start.

Maybe I'm just choosing to see it that way. ;)

I don't blame you mate we all have our different coping mechanisms as Melbourne supporters!

Just thought I'd report what was actually said rather than what was said in all our dreams.

I went back and listened to the SEN recording and to some extent 'Members Wing' is correct but it needs to be put in full context of the discussion:-

The Ox asked Petroro: whether they are negotiating with Melbourne to get a long extension or a multi year contract...for Jesse? Petroro's (not quite verbatim) response was: ...we will sit down over the summer and start a discussion...Jesse is really happy in Melbourne...when the time is right both parties will sit down and start to look towards Jesse's future...but he is obviously a huge part of Melbourne's future.

So in the context of the question, the response to me meant the next contract will keep Jesse with us 'for a long time to come' but to be fair Petroro didn't use those words. You can form your own view at the 12 min mark: http://www.sen.com.au/programs/the-run-home

There seemed little doubt that there will be a contract extension negotiated over the summer.

Jesse is contracted till 2017 so even a 'short' extension eg 3 years will keep Jesse a Demon till 2020.

That's a long time to me and I would be very happy with that sort of contract extension.

He also confirmed he wasn't personally looking after Hogan.

Despite the incorrect reporting of what was actually said, and I agree the lily was gilded, I'd be very surprised if Hogan doesn't extend over summer.

It's the contract after that will be telling.

Wrong caption.

Surely it is Bruce Commentating on Cyrrrrrrrilllllll kicking a goal.

Picket fence does when someone mentions Ollie Wines, so i guess it's fine :)

Nar, my new pin up is

Jane Bunn! :wacko::blink::rolleyes:

If the club can't sort it self out by 2020 and win a flag I couldn't care less if Hogan left in 2021..

meh, i stopped caring about what Garry thinks/says years ago when he rolled into the club with designer sunnies on and lead the charge with a contingent of media following him, to "save us."

Albeit it, i do agree with him on this point.

But he gave us Neeld :wub:

I'll give you 50-1 we don't win a flag by 2020, that is madness

Don't think Hogan will win it but I can imagine him on stage receiving it.

Fixing his hair then pointing to the trophy and saying "is that it?"

 

Some of those marks today were just unfair.

44 goals in his debut season and a presence that just about every other forward can only ever dream of. And hes only 20.

    We’re back! That was fun. The Mighty Dees’ Season 10 campaign is off toa flying start with a commanding 48-point winover the Western Bulldogs, retaining the Hampson-Hardeman Cup in style. After a hard-fought first half in slippery conditions, the Dees came out in the second half and showcased their trademark superior class, piling on four goals in the third termand never looked back.

  • REPORT: Hawthorn

    The final score in Saturday's game against Hawthorn was almost identical to that from their last contest three months ago. Melbourne suffered comprehensive defeats in both games, but the similarities ended there.When they met in Round 9, the Demons were resurgent, seeking to redeem themselves after a lacklustre start to the season. They approached the game with vigour and dynamism, and were highly competitive for the first three quarters, during which they were at least on par with the Hawks. In the final term, they lapsed into error and were ultimately overrun, but the final result did not accurately reflect their effort and commitment throughout the match.

  • CASEY: Box Hill

    The Casey Demons ended the regular season on a positive note and gained substantial momentum leading into the finals when they knocked the Box Hill Hawks off the top of the VFL ladder in their final round clash at Casey Fields. More importantly, they moved out of a wild card position in the finals race and secured a week's rest as they leapfrogged up the ladder into fifth place with their decisive 23-point victory over the team that had been the dominant force in the competition for most of the season.

    The final game of the 2025 Season is finally upon us and the Demons may have an opportunity to spoil the Magpies Top 4 aspirations when they face them on Friday Night. Who comes in and who goes out?

    The Demons were sloppy all day and could not stop the run and carry of the fast moving Hawthorn as the Hawks cruised to an easy 36 point win. Is the season over yet?
