I think he will sign the extension before the start of next season after bagging 60 goals this year and the team on the cusp of finals.......

    I suppose the good news in all this for the club is that Jesse's current contract no doubt sees him being one of the few Melbourne players over the past decade being paid less than he is worth.

    I'm very relaxed about the situation with Jesse.

    We are in the box seat to re-sign him. We just need to perform on the field now - that is, and should be, the focus now.

    Won't be so relaxed if we put in tres ordinaire performances week in, week out, and continually get belted.

    Perhaps it's seriously misguided optimism, but I just can't see that happening anymore.

    Two years to go on his contract. Will come out of contract as a restricted free agent. Freo have bigger fish to fry.

    I'm in the boat of "I'll believe it when I see it". We've been sucked in before, and whilst I have some cautious optimism about this group, it's not too different from the one that got belted by Carlton, St Kilda and the Dogs, and got beaten by Essendon in the second half of last season. It may take a while for those sort of performances to be phased out entirely.

    I want to enjoy the next two years with Jesse. If he goes I'll deal with the disappointment then.

    You have the ability to compartmentalise.

    So many supporters here not reading the tea leaves...

    He doesn't want to live in Perth (yet), so dismiss the "go home factor"

    He's "loyal" - a point his manager is keen to point out 

    He only extended his last contract 18 months ago

    He's only got one season under his belt

    With two years still to run he and his advisers think another year to show his wares (and confirm that the Dees are on the right track) makes perfect sense

    There are many players on the list (Harmes, Kent, JKH, Tom Mc, Petracca, etc.) that he is very close to and player relationships is one of the major reasons players don't go

    He's well aware of his importance to the team and would feel a real responsibility to help make a difference - it might be different if he was 26 and had already given plenty of service 

    I'm very relaxed about the situation. 

    Can this post be pinned to the top somehow? The hand wringing by some in this thread is ridiculous.

    No. Even if it were, it would backfire spectacularly.

    The situation isn't anything like Howe last year, Jesse has been in talks for a while now and to the point numbers and years are a part of it, he's been shown a vision of the future, 

    i am firmly of the belief, Jesse has an offer on the table and he and his manager simply want to see improvement before he signs away the next 5-7 years of his career, which is absolutely fair enough

    just watch him train and you'll see he's totally invested in the club, he wants to be part of it.

    Putting talks on hold is simply to quiet the speculation of Jesse signing in the very near future so he can make a calm and calculated decision in his own time, but i have no doubt he will sign on.

    I just had a squizz at the Fremantle board regarding Jesse Hogan delaying contract negotiations. Majority of supporters seemed very realistic that there is a very slim to none chance Hogan will go back to WA and more likely than not sign back on with the Dees. Playing it down that he has put negotiations on hold as it was the right decision for all parties.

    they have their hands full with Hooker and Macarthey

    I have NO problem with Jesse putting off talks for this season. 

    Now i want The MFC to perform this season in such a way that Jesse WANTS TO STAY

    We as a club must be attractive not just on paper

    Performance on field will sign this deal.

    Another year down the track...another year of this list playing together, the fabric tightens. Success will be the ultimate thread that binds. 

    The better we get the better we get at getting better and the getting of better players and keeping them becomes more automatic.

    Go Dees

    With still another year on top of this year, there is no reason for us to worry about it. I prefer him to be focusing on developing and becoming a dominant force in the AFL, the team needs to be pulling in one direction this year and that's up the ladder. 

    No worries for me with him asking to resume talks at the end of the season, and we got an absolute pearler from Titus to chuckle at as well!

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #28 Will Verrall

      It was a tough ask for him to break through as a 199cm ruckman in the shadow of an all-time great in that position who is also the club captain. He had some good days at Casey but was unable to progress and was delisted at the end of the season.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #29 Tom Campbell

      The 33-year-old Campbell has yet to play AFL football for Melbourne, but his Casey form has been strong and he has been retained as a ready-made ruck depth option who is widely regarded as someone who is excellent for the culture of the club.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #30 Harry Sharp 

      The Demons acquired an interesting player in Sharp, who narrowly missed securing a spot in the Lions’ premiership team last year. The 22-year-old medium forward played in the opening round this season and ended up with 18 senior games, although he was substituted in or out in for ten of those matches. He demonstrated glimpses of form, but ultimately ended the year on the margins of the team.

      Worked his way back after a slow start and a further slump in form going into the midseason but became a solid contributor for the club in the latter half of 2025. Closing in on 300 goals for the club.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Gold Coast

      On Friday, the Demons return to our Casey Fields fortress where they have a 77% win rate. The scent of September is in the air and the struggling Suns are on the horizon. The Cranbourne weather forecast? Ominous, like the match itself: a strong chance of carnage. Let’s be honest, last week’s first half against the West Coast was a training drill but we dropped our guard in the final quarter. While this match is a mismatch on paper — second versus seventeenth — football is won in the wind, the contests, and the moments.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #32 Tom Sparrow

      The rugged Sparrow’s career appears to have plateaued in recent years. He makes the side on a week to week basis but he is unable to establish a foothold in the team’s midfield and arguably performs best outside of the contest in a forward position without being a goal kicker. He remains a good honest foot soldier but is not a star.
