The chase and tackle his highlight of the night, last week he didn't look like even thinking about laying a tackle.

He still can't kick for goal further than about 35 metres out which a big concern. His kicking action just has no power to it.

Wow!

he was our best player.

Open your fuggin eyes!!

 
 

Club tried to trade him at the end of last year and it didn’t sit well with him.

Glad he’s started this year so well. Hopefully all wounds have healed.

I don’t know the reasons behind that, but that’s what I understand.

He has some things he needs to work through though...

Yeah Wiseblood, it’s just a load of crap. Appreciate you’re uninformed input into what I had to say.

Sorry B, thought you might be having a joke, it could be true, just a bit odd it comes out now.

I've heard otherwise. 

Good enough?

I’ve been umming and ahing whether to say anything for about 4 weeks now. 

Anyway make of it what you will. I’m not trying to stir up controversy.

I couldn’t care less personally.

This came from a current player...maybe your info is better than mine. Congrats.

Can I ask you why you’d bother to even raise such an item in round 2 of the following season?

As previously stated I only heard this approx 4 to 6 weeks ago and was reluctant to post it.

Anyway, I have now....as I said make of that what you will.

It simply goes against everything that has been said, or even intimated.  Resigning to the Dees, the issues and support last year, what he has said, was the coach has said.  He was untradable last year, confirmed by the Club and Jesse.

it is difficult to marry that up with ‘a current player said ‘.  Unfortunately, as honest as you may want to appear, it looks like an April fools troll.

what can you offer to substantiate your claim?

There’s no way I believe the club put him on the trade table, especially after the horror year he endured. If Hogan requested a trade it would have been made public. If we put Hogan up for trade, a deal would have absolutely been done with Fremantle of West Coast. Nothing personal Beetle, you may well have been provided information. I just question the validity of it.

I can’t offer anything more, with the risk of the player away, which I won’t.

Im clearly a troll and have been working up to this post in my 11 years of membership.

  • 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.
