Watching the pre-game on foxfooty David King was interviewing a pre-recorded segment with Jack Watts. They were hitting golf balls at Albert Park Driving Range and King asked him if the great man (Hogan) has been around to his place. Wattsy laughed and said he's around all the time and it's sickening to watch the lovey-dovey carry on with him and i assume a girlfriend. I don't know whether it's Jack's sister or someone else, however it inferred Hogan was smitten and always coming around to Jacks. 

I keep telling everyone, Jesse has a girlfriend, she is a local Brighton lass and the connection to Jack is that the was until recently dating her sister. I believe that Jack is no longer dating the sister. No surprise that Jack still has jesse and friend over to visit.

IMO any player in his position who signs for more than three years is crazy.

When you are 26-7 you look for long deals.

Actually I saw this shot too and thought the same thing when it seemed like the Brisbane player asked him a question, I'm not a lip reader so I don't know what he said. But it seemed like a shake of the head and a 'naah mate' - So was the question "are you staying?" or "are you leaving" - Do we have any backofthehead readers?

 

Do you seriously believe Hogan would tell a random Brisbane player what he is doing next year?

And are people actually that desperate for a tiny sliver of information that they actually believe it, and that the information was acquired by lipreading via the TV?

Trolling.

I'm just backing up CityDee in that after the game there was a shot of a Brisbane player shaking hands with Hogan and he asked him something with Hogan reacting and saying something. Not implying anything but considering its the big issue, i can imagine the player jokingly asking if he was staying and Hogan saying "[censored] off mate" - Obviously nothing
to see here.

Of course he wouldn't tell them, i just thought the way Hogan reacted that the brisbane player asked him for a laugh. I think asking for "backofthehead readers" went over your head as a joke, how can you take that seriously?

Why the [censored] would a Brisbane player give two shits what Hogan is doing with his career?

Is it so hard to believe that a Brisbane player jokingly asked if he was staying knowing it's a big media issue? How many players do you think jokingly asked Danger if he was leaving last year at the end of the game with him shrugging them off with a "p.iss off mate" ? Anyway, thread is being clogged up with [censored]. i regret backing up citydee by saying I saw that shot.

Or maybe he asked him if he's going out after the game, or if he's still with this girlfriend, or if they should catch up with a mutual friend, or if he has a good spag bol recipe? 

He could have asked him anything. Literally they could have been chatting about a million topics. I can't even deal with how silly the speculation has become.

Neale signing can only be good for us imo

Freo look miles off being a contender.

 

They're ageing and their list profile is all wrong - two more years for Danyle Pearce? Sandi continuing on? Mayne has seen his form drop off a cliff, as has Mundy.

 

They're still in the box seat to bring Cam McCarthy in on the cheap at the end of this season - they dodged a bullet with GW$ not agreeing to what would be now a trade massively in their favour.

 

In terms of Hogan, I'm more concerned about meth coke's intentions at the end of 2017.

Not concerned about Jesse going anywhere in the near future. His next contract won't be a massive one in terms of length but will be an extension of 3-5 years.

Agree Ethan, i can't see Hogan coming close to leaving before he becomes a free agent. If he does leave when he's a free agent, would much prefer he picked WCE, the tears from the Freo fans would be epic :)

I don't know about cheap. McCarthy is still signed to GWS till the end of 2017. If Fremantle don't offer a reasonable deal, then I imagine they will have missed the boat. GWS could shop McCarthy to WC for their first round pick - forcing Fremantle to offer up their first rounder. Or if those deals were not on the table, GWS would be well within their rights to hold McCarthy till the end of 2017. I don't see GWS offloading McCarthy for peanuts, he is a quality player, has a lot of talent, and looks to have a big future.

No chance, hasn't played all year, Mark my words the deal will be equal to a third round pick at most. Freo don't have a second round pick this year and there is no chance they're going to part with a top 10 pick unless GWS want to throw in Jonothan Patton or something else into the deal.

Agreed, I read an article that GWS are preparing to accept Freo's 3rd rnd pick (similar to Freo's 2015 2nd rnd given ladder postition) for McCarthy.

This article says Freo unlikely to trade 1st rnd pick (pick 4)  http://www.foxsports.com.au/afl/fremantle-dockers-chief-executive-steve-rosich-says-the-club-is-unlikely-to-trade-its-firstround-pick-ahead-of-novembers-afl-draft/news-story/dd24c3e27a78fc0dd58cb39fc2e7af41

It could be a smokescreen but it might also suggest they are giving up on Jesse.  As you say they don't have a 2016, 2nd rnd pick and if they bounce back up the ladder next year trading 2017 picks for Jesse will be nowhere near enough. 

Freo might be able to offer Jesse big $$$$ but I don't think they have the quality picks/players (Fyfe & Neale being 'untouchable') to trade for Jesse so like yourself I'm optimistic of Jesse staying.

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the
