Interesting timing to the Hogan extension discussion from the MFC, its as if they are purposefully indicating Hogans extended tenure to help attract and entice other prospective players to come to the MFC...

Wonder who they are? :)

Unlikely.

 

It's not OK to get a boner over Hogan. I hate reading garbage like that and normally delete it - left that one there to make a point.

Hey man, you can't tell my boner what to do.

TBH, I can't tell my boner what to do either.

That's a little homophobic. Of course, this isn't the forum for airing that sort of thing anyway.

Not that there's anything wrong with that.


Actually Clint I reckon it's very likely and makes a lot of sense.

I agree with you and PaulRB, this is exactly the type of shenanigans Roos would get up to

Jesse could you be a dear and stick your head out to the press and imply your are staying at the Dees please, it would help us out a lot

and it will too

Yep so do i. As does making it clear Melksham, and to a lesser degree Kennedy and Bugg, is keen to come to the dees at this early stage

We won't re-sign Hogan until well after the 2016 season.

It would be silly for him to sign on now when he could easily improve his worth with an even stronger season. It's a risk for him but this is all talk atm. They're opening discussions and that's it.

To be honest i can't see how he could improve his worth. If anything he could drop his worth if god forbid he copped a bad injury

I disagree praha, I think it better for him to go now (to sign now). He does have an injury cloud. If he did his back in the preseason or an early round, other clubs would be very careful re due diligence lest they end up with a Buddy Bomb. Get it done Dees.

Edit- For clarity added - to sign now.

I'd be very worried if he doesn't re-sign by the middle of next year. From what was reported in the article and comments from his manager on Trade Radio, there's nothing to suggest that Hogan is likely to extend his contract long term before the start of 2016. The meeting with Roos etc basically outlined our plans going forward. This suggests that Hogan is keen on success, and if we stagnate or regress in 2016, the jungle drums may start beating.

Okay, it's fine to get one. It's not okay to post about it.

Can we drop this now?

Let's. It's probably gone by now anyway.

Looks like an offer has been made to Jesse. Mahoney: "We’ve already met with Jesse and we’ve gone through our plan as a club and we’ve presented that to him and made an offer for an extension for Jesse." http://www.melbournefc.com.au/news/2015-10-11/we-want-hogan-longterm-mahoney

Not a gambler but would take a big bet that Jesse signs an extension beyond 2017!

A pre Xmas announcement would be nice...a present from Santa :cool:

Needs a prosthesis does he?


Needs a prosthesis does he?

That is not even funny!

He is going to take his time with this one, he'll need to be 100% sure he wants to be at the MFC to sign this extension, from what I've heard he'll be ( and rightly so ) one of the highest paid in the comp.

Strong indication from Hogan was there will be no deal either before or during 2016 season ... Just wants to play ...

In other words he wants to see if we r still going to be a basket case before he signs on for an extended period.

Honestly who can blame him.

I did think that a decision would be made over the summer so his comment if he actually said it is a bit contradictory.

Im not sure what he's inferring. Hogan has another two years on his contract. Nothing to worry about.

Edited by Moneider96


His contract doesn"t expire for 2 years. Don't blame him for wanting to wait & see where the team is headed. If we are moving well and we are where we should be then he'll resign. He wants success and loves Melbourne. The city and the team. The only reason he would leave is for poor on field performances. Not worried at all

The idea of signing him long term with 2 years left on his contract when we only win 7 games was 1000 to 1

exact same reaction I had.

 

Not surprised by his decision to focus on footy.

It does, however, allow the media to speculate about it ad nauseum, and for posters on here to take off their jocks so everyone can sh*t in them about the situation. Plenty on here will have their mental health tested by this.

This is what worries me the most.

  • 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.

    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.
