Fyfe has come out saying he is going to explode his opinions at the end of next year as he is a free agent.

Hogan for Fyfe anyone?

I would not read too much into this.  Josh is simply keeping the club honest in the early stages of negotiation. Hogan has said he wishes to re-sign, but no deal has yet been struck as such maintaining a market is what any good manager would do.  This is standard.

Yup, Hogan signing will be significant, the club will want to milk it for as much as it's worth, these sort of signings can often happen a long time before anyone hears about them, they just wait for the right moment to announce it.

saw this on twitter

For what it's worth, @TimGossage reporting that Freo are no longer chasing Jesse Hogan.

I bet they still are

Got a link to that?

For me the most significant quote from Jesse is:   “The factors are probably where the club is heading, that’s the main one,” Hogan said

Well I hope he was watching very closely the Hawks game for several reasons.

- Yes it seems we can play some great footy and are definitely on the rise: it is a matter of developing consistency within and between games.

- It was a genuine team effort, with mids in particular seeing multiple options up forward, not just the superstar.

- He could have had a good look at Weideman's set shot routine.

I think the face palm is around trading (when not needing to) for someone who is a free agent..... Or I'm completely missing something

Hogan is what? I've seen nothing to suggest he will become a great player let alone a good one. Can't understand the fascination with his future. Sure he won the rising star...so did Jarred Rivers...a handy player no doubt, but a star? There are players already on our list that have had fewer opportunities but done more...Seems to be a passionate mindset that he will bring good fortune which seems difficult to equate with his achievements notwithstanding his perceived "upside"? What is seen that I can't see in him? Would happily be wrong in the most fundamental way...yet is he worth the zillions some are prepared to pay and what might we get for him in return? A forward that cannot mark in a contest and is innacurate in front more often than is comfortable, a self centric player with more than his share of conceit.

Mate, KPPs generally take years to develop into quality players. Compare what Jesse is doing now with what Gawn and Watts were doing at the same stage in their careers.

Will be a genuine star of the comp, and that's why no dees fan should be happy to see him leave.

Hopefully he's staying

what's the confusion Rjay? simply saying not all announcements happen right away, the bigger ones can be timed to get the best response.

More to do with the post you are quoting 'Abe'...

Our man with the inside info seems confused with Josh Mahoney's role & Hogans managers role.

Still laughing, and this is the edited version!

I pretty much stopped reading after this. Whilst I respect your opinion not to crystal ball about Hogans future I could not disagree with you more about seeing nothing to suggest that he will become a "good player" as by any standards he has already passed that mark. He is currently 11th on the goal kicking list. Ranked 10th in the league for  marks  and contested marks (av per game). You don't think that qualifies him as a "good player" ?

Caroline Wilson on Footy Classified tonight said she is starting to think Hogan is more likely to go than stay now and that the club is getting a bit frustrated. Might be an interesting off season. 

Heard that - no evidence to back it up, just her thinking, which is about on par with the hand wringers of Demonland.

Yes true just her opinion. It does seem odd though from what Caro was saying that the club one minute think he will sign soon and then the next minute think he will be leaving.

David Schwarz was spot on with regarding his kicking. 

Big summer coming up for Jesse.

Wise, you are painting yourself as one of the grinning, glass half full, "everything is great" bunch.

Maybe you should meet the others somewhere in the middle hey?

What's wrong with that?  I've always been in the glass half full area, although I know that everything is not great.  If it was great we would be playing finals.  The year has been good, not great.

I just don't like journo's who drop an opinion with nothing to back it up.  It serves no purpose.

Caro is not going to print that story while  including the name of her source. She has a fair track record, and that is cause for me to be concerned.

Of course I hope she is wrong, but she has many more inside sources than I do.

Not sure that's what she said. She said she believes he changes his mind a lot. She also said officials were unsure what he's going to do and neither is she.

But if I missed that part she said she thinks he's more likely to go then fair enough.

Very true.  He needs to fix it, although his confidence is shot as well, which doesn't help.  If we want him to be the superstar forward we all know he can be, then he needs to address this over the summer.

She is not printing any story.  It was just her opinion of FC.

Hogan has the tools to be a superstar. Anyone who denies that has zero footy i.q

We just need to sort his head out.

    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
