yes if t was 5 years i might still discuss it, would you still whinge about it being discussed ?

I'm not sure "whinge" is the right word. 

Would I look down my nose at you ?  Of course.  Life has so many things to ponder and that wouldn't be one of them.

    To discuss whether he might stay or leave after the 5 years left on his contract ?

    I think you'd be in a room by yourself.

    Mentioned in the Sun today, that MFC and Hogan's Manager, are to meet to discuss an extension to his contract.

    Hopefully his contract can be extended by 5 years and that will be one distraction removed.

    how about you just not go around telling other people what they can/cannot talk about unless it's in an acceptable timeframe determined by you

    I just highlighted the banality.

    ok then from now on i will keep an eye out on your posts and be sure to inform you politely that the topic you are discussing is, IMO, banal. I hope you don't find that annoying

    That's awesome news if true.

    Perhaps a 4 year extension that would take him to free agency eligibility??

    I'd prefer a 100 year contract that would take him through to his next lifetime.

    They sell it alright but it's about double the cost.


    Not sure that would make much of a difference for Hogan, considering the coin he'll be on...

    He would be mad not to renegotiate his contract. At the moment he is stuck, for the next two seasons, on the type of money offered to a player who may become be one of the power forwards of the competition. Now he could be on the money offered to a player who you know will be one of the power forwards of the comp.

    It is just a question as to how many more years he will sign on for the opportunity to upgrade. My guess is an extra two years which will take him out to 2019.

    Obviously I, like everyone else, would love to see Jesse locked down for the long term.

    However I can't for the life of me see the sense in him signing a 10 year deal.  How could Jesse, his manager or the MFC have any idea what sort of money players will be on in ten years time.  That'd be two broadcast deals from now when it's not inconceivable that player payments would be significantly higher than they are now.  Big money in 2016 won't be big money in 2024.

    Would that encompass father/son and grandfather/son?

    If he turn out as good as I think he will I think we also need a husband/wife, uncle/nephew and an any blood relative ( or acquaintance) clause in the contract.

    We wouldn't have got Weidemann on this basis...

    I managed to get it up and read in full somehow. Cant now...  :/

    Story was mainly about Frost moving forward, but there was a couple of paragraphs at the end that said what Redleg mentioned earlier.

    Quotes I remember...

    - Hogan and his manager in preliminary discussions

    - Would be looking at $700,000+ per season which would make him one of highest paid players for his age in the game.

    Doesn't sound like a long-term contract to me.

    If we're offering him $700K we're lunatics. Don't turn around and [censored] when his manager puts talks off for the season.

    • PREVIEW: Fremantle

      A month is a long time in AFL football. The proof of this is in the current state of the two teams contesting against each other early this Saturday afternoon at the MCG. It’s hard to fathom that when Melbourne and Fremantle kicked off the 2025 season, the former looked like being a major player in this year’s competition after it came close to beating one of the favourites in the GWS Giants while the latter was smashed by Geelong to the tune of 78 points and looked like rubbish. Fast forward to today and the Demons are low on confidence and appear panic stricken as their winless streak heads towards an even half dozen and pressure mounts on the coach and team leadership.  Meanwhile, the Dockers have recovered their composure and now sit in the top eight. They are definitely on the up and up and look most likely winners this weekend against a team which they have recently dominated and which struggles to find enough passages to the goals to trouble the scorers. And with that, Fremantle will head to the MCG, feeling very good about itself after demolishing Richmond in the Barossa Valley with Josh Treacy coming off a six goal haul and facing up to a Melbourne defence already without Jake Lever and a shaky Steven May needing to pass a fitness test just to make it onto the field of play.

    • NON-MFC: Round 06

      The Easter Round kicks off in style with a Thursday night showdown between Brisbane and Collingwood, as both sides look to solidify their spots inside the Top 4 early in the season. Good Friday brings a double-header, with Carlton out to claim consecutive wins when they face the struggling Kangaroos, while later that night the Eagles host the Bombers in Perth, still chasing their first victory of the year. Saturday features another marquee clash as the resurgent Crows look to rebound from back-to-back losses against a formidable GWS outfit. That evening, all eyes will be on Marvel Stadium where Damien Hardwick returns to face his old side—the Tigers—coaching the Suns at a ground he's never hidden his disdain for. Sunday offers two crucial contests where the prize is keeping touch with the Top 8. First, Sydney and Port Adelaide go head-to-head, followed by a fierce battle between the Bulldogs and the Saints. Then, Easter Monday delivers the traditional clash between two bitter rivals, both desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top end of the ladder. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Essendon

      What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.
