McQueen

David King was just on SEN talking about the best set shots at goal this year (minimum 20). Hogan is the fourth most accurate at 68%. In comparison Jack Riewoldt at 52%.

Posters have commented on his stagnated run up. If he keeps nailing them, he could kick on his head for all I care.

    He's kicked a few from the boundary but I think part of the reason he is so accurate is because he doesn't lead to the pocket too much so a lot of shots on goal are from not too difficult angles which is crucial.

    He's obviously done a lot of work to correct his action. When he first arrived at the club his run up for a set shot looked like me walking home from the local pub after 20 beers.

    Yep, and this was a big part of last week's win and our accurate 18.5 scoreline - our inside50's were deep and central, which meant most of our set shots were relatively easy.

    Except for Garlett, where the more difficult the kick the more accurate he is!

    That's funny given Hogan didn't play... :rolleyes:

    Yeah, that's it. I cannot stand it when big forwards lead to a pocket in lieu of the Most Dangerous Spot on the ground.

    "There's people there!" they cry. Yeah, there are. There is a reason why they're there...

    He's been deadly accurate.

    Whilst this isn't a knock on him, the only thing I can say I've seen that he doesn't possess is distance in his set shot kicking.

    He doesn't seem to have a huge amount of penetration from 45 + when kicking for goal.

    As for everything else. He's almost perfect.

    Yep I am happy to accept Jesse as he is. There is no perfect model and everyone has their individual differences. What works for one does not work for another. Jesse has definitely worked on his kicking yet it still has some kinks but it seems to work. Peter Hudson had an unconventional action but was deadly accurate.

    He doesn't try to overkick them. That's his secret. That last goal against Richmond in the pocket was a perfect example. Not an easy angle, but made it look easy.

    Would love to see Jesse dish out a super game by out-marking Hurley and kicking a bag.

    6 goals today??

    I predicted he'd kick 8. Going to downgrade that due to poor weather. It's going to bucket down and make for a messy game of poor skills and low scores. He'll kick 7.

    Probably not the weather conditions for a big forward to kick a bag

    But it is Jesse Hogan so anythings possible

    If he can monster one of the best CHB in the game in Alex Rance in the wet then surely he can do the same to Hurley??

    I can't remember who it was but one of the commentators on tele did a mid-year AA team and it had Hurley in it. Might've been Alistair Lynch..

    Personally I think Hurley is overrated and has escaped criticism over the years.

    Jonathon Brown was pumping up Hogan again saying that the only player to give Rance a hiding was Jesse :wub:

    Something tells me Browny likes him.. Feel free to come down and work with him Browndog!

    I put $5 @ $16 for Dawes to kick our first today!

    I'd be wanting those odds for him to kick one for the game.

    I'm sure I recall hearing Jon Brown had been in touch with Jesse and offered his help whenever it is needed.

    He would want to get a few goals sooner or later mate or it might be back to Casey for him!

    Not if the bad weather is as predicted. 6 goals in that case would be remarkable.

    Getting paid a lot of money for not much return.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

      Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

      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

      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.
