Yeah not sure why he'd be on the footy show. I mean surely he would know he will get asked about his contract. 

 

Makes me more confident he loves the club and will be with us long term.  I see no other reason to put yourself on national television just three days before the season opener when you just did a presser a week ago that got a lot of attention itself.

how about.. he does what he is told by the club, which is to do media and raise the profile of the club, very simple

They're crossing live to Hogan. 

 

This is is like when LeBron chose Miami.

Just an interview.

live though, Hogan is a strange one in front of the camera so could be worth a look. 

Prepare for it to be over analysed and conclusions to be drawn from the slightest of his twitches by the naysayers on here. 

I wont be watching...but can someone please keep a tally of how many times he uses the word "obviously".

At least once so far ... :lol::)


He looked like a cast member from, 'Pineapple Express'.

Also don't think he was actually in store at the adidas store. 

Aside from that, just said the usual dribble about contracts and set shot kicking.

Every panel member tipped GWS, and now you can turn the show off.

I forgot to count but it was about 7. 

 

Nothing interview really, was at some Addidas reopening, but he was alright, joked about his marking in the NAB and let it known that it was just banter with the Ox. Isn't changing his kicking.

thank christ we didnt rush into signing him up to a Tom Boyd like contract

What a disgraceful performance 

Has kicked 2 goals in a row since you posted this, but i agree

 

Needs to think on his feet. 

Spent 3 quarters being beaten in arm wrestles before starting to move and lead and provide a valid target and suddenly picks up 3 goals. 

 

I was getting sick of yelling at him to lead and provide an option in the first and third quarters

Very disappointing first 3 quarters, but he took it on his own back in the last and wont the game for us. Im so conflicted ...


It was the worst delivery you could imagine in the first 3 quarters, should have brought it to ground a couple of times but it was hardly all his fault. 

In fact I can hardly remember him taking a simple mark on a lead inside 50 in any of his games. It's always hard work to get his goals. 

Worked his way into it, well done to the coaches with getting him up the ground, really needs the forward line to himself though. Frost and Pedersen don't help Jesse at all.

Care to take that back? He won the game for us.

Yes I take it back, was just a post out of frustration.

Hogan is god.

If the Hulk averages three goals a game and plays in all of them, that's 66 goals which would be much better than last year.

Just as a reminder, here are his 2015 goals.

Hogan was given the royal treatment by a very strong opponent and yet the umpires could have been a little kinder to him early in the game. His comeback around the ground after such a disappointing start was nevertheless pretty handy. 

There will be better days.

He didn't offer any leads in the first three quarters, his teammates were forced to sit it on his head because he simply wasn't moving.

very true clint, and i'm sure the coaches will be correcting this. picked the wrong opponent to arm wrestle. he'll learn

No coincidence that the forward line structure improved in the last quarter when Pedo was put into the backline.

And after the coaching team had given him a rocket by sticking him in midfield so he would be forced to break out of a jog. If he led hard today, he could have kicked 6 no troubles.

Yep, that helped too, but having a pack of 6 players in the way wherever you want to go didn't help...

 


 

He needs to get the sookes out of his game.

  • PREVIEW: Sydney

    The two teams competing at the MCG on Sunday afternoon have each traversed a long and arduous path since their previous encounter on a sweltering March evening in Sydney a season and a half ago. Both experienced periods of success at various times last year. The Demons ran out of steam in midseason while the Swans went on to narrowly miss the ultimate prize in the sport. Now, they find themselves outside of finals contention as the season approaches the halfway mark. The winner this week will remain in contact with the leading pack, while the loser may well find itself on a precipice, staring into the abyss. The current season has presented numerous challenges for most clubs, particularly those positioned in the middle tier. The Essendon experience in suffering a significant 91-point loss to the Bulldogs, just one week after defeating the Swans, may not be typical, but it illustrates the unpredictability of outcomes under the league’s present set up.

  • REPORT: Brisbane

    “Max Gawn has been the heart and soul of the Dees for years now, but this recent recovery from a terrible start has been driven by him. He was everywhere again, and with the game in the balance, he took several key marks to keep the ball in the Dees forward half.” - The Monday Knee Jerk Reaction: Round Ten Of course, it wasn’t the efforts of one man that caused this monumental upset, but rather the work of the coach and his assistants and the other 22 players who took the ground, notably the likes of Jake Melksham, Christian Petracca, Clayton Oliver and Kozzie Pickett but Max has been magnificent in taking ownership of his team and its welfare under the fire of a calamitous 0-5 start to the season. On Sunday, he provided the leadership that was needed to face up to the reigning premier and top of the ladder Brisbane Lions on their home turf and to prevail after a slow start, during which the hosts led by as much as 24 points in the second quarter. Titus O’Reily is normally comedic in his descriptions of the football but this time, he was being deadly serious. The Demons have come from a long way back and, although they still sit in the bottom third of the AFL pack, there’s a light at the end of the tunnel as they look to drive home the momentum inspired in the past four or five weeks by Max the Magnificent who was under such great pressure in those dark, early days of the season.

  • CASEY: Southport

    The Southport Sharks came to Casey. They saw and they conquered a team with 16 AFL-listed players who, for the most part, wasted their time on the ground and failed to earn their keep. For the first half, the Sharks were kept in the game by the Demons’ poor use of the football, it’s disposal getting worse the closer the team got to its own goal and moreover, it got worse as the game progressed. Make no mistake, Casey was far and away the better team in the first half, it was winning the ruck duels through Tom Campbell’s solid performance but it was the scoreboard that told the story.

  • PREGAME: Sydney

    Just a game and percentage outside the Top 8, the Demons return to Melbourne to face the Sydney Swans at the MCG, with a golden opportunity to build on the momentum from toppling the reigning premiers on their own turf. Who comes in, and who makes way?

    The Demons pulled off an absolute miracle at the Gabba coming from 24 points down in the 2nd Quarter to overrun the reigning premiers the Brisbane Lions winning by 11 points and keeping their season well and truly alive.
