The Jesse Hogan Panic Room - all contract talk here


Grapeviney

Recommended Posts

One of the best young talents in the league.

Perhaps other clubs might want a key forwarding WA.

Demons need to show the rewards available plying with a team of talent his own age ready to take the next step. Beating the Hawks was an indicator of potential. We have a solid list with even better younger talent coming on.

We need to offer a performance based contract that rewards his individual inputs factored with team success. The better the team results the better the membership and marketing income the better the reward. Base salary plus individual increments based on goals kicked or assisted, b&f votes, rating points (tackles possessions etc) factored by ladder position.

Get Jesse on board he is seriously good

Can't believe (yes I can it's demonland) people are saying a poorer second-half of the season means his mentally checked out? By that logic Viney's gone too??? He's a second year player who obviously tired and may have played hurt a little, that for me gives confidence that he wants to be out there for us even if not 100% to do so. 

Can't wait to see him with another full pre-season, plus I hope he evolves to be the leader of the forward line, while he commands the forward line at the moment due to being the bets player there, when he learn how to lead it and direct others we'll become significantly better and so will he. I loved the early season partnership with Watts, and think this will become huge if Weid joins them too.

Pretty much every club runs incentive based contracts, they all get a base wage then bonuses based on performance.

Lol, embarrassing for a power forward to be playing for free kicks like this.

This sums up my frustrations with him, he just needs to focus on doing the basics, leading, chasing, tackling. Needs to play a team game, it appears like all the media talk about him being the next big thing got to him as it did with Stringer.

Has been doing that all season, even in round one.  As with his wobbly goal kicking, defensive  efforts, etc, nothing much seems to have been done about it. Posters here  have brushed aside his deficiencies due to his age and experience. But fair enough, young players with deficiencies get to learn better ways in the seconds, He has been cut too much slack with no consequences  and poor attitude and NQR ways seem quite entrenched these days.

Idk whats more embarassing... Jesse's flop or Jeffy's miss...

But if Jesse hadn't staged he would have kept his feet and could have shepperded for Jeffy to have a better chance at goal. 

Jesse is far more valuable if he doesn't stage nor stop playing when he thinks he should get a free.  Its part of life for a power forward.  We need him to keep making second and third efforts.

Hopefully, staging is another thing that Jesse gets out of his game over the summer as it is happening too often.

after reports he told freo to go fish about a month ago, we decided he was ours, now we think that he's left because of some poor performances?

Only the dopes.  And they repeat it all the time, so it looks like more think that way than actually do.

The second half of the year fade out is telling for me. Suggests he's playing hurt, or mentally checked out of the club. I reckon it's the latter.

Agree, however, I hope we are wrong. He is the player that I cannot emotionally invest in. His second half of the year has been disappointing to say the least (for all the reasons already discussed). He really has the club over a barrel. The club will need to make a lump sum offer without conditions or incentive payments. Other clubs will just throw big bucks and a long-term deal without qualifications. If we don't meet or better any offers we will probably lose him. If we do lose him, the media will be critical of the Dees for not being able to keep him and cast a negative light on the club. There will be no standing ovation from the media hacks if we do keep him.

So the defender pulling the front of his jumper had nothing to do with getting him off balance, or did you prefer to ignore that to justify your post

Why don't we devote more anger to the reason why it seems this season Jesse doesn't seem to have been getting his due lot of free kicks when they are there.

Danaher is given everything, and last week it really stood out when he should have got a free kick, and he didn't. The stands erupted and barely minutes later ,things were evened up. I don't need to say how well Hawkins is looked after.

Hogan would have fallen over also if your 4 year was playing  on him and applied that jumper tug.

That is utter tosh, his jumper comes out about four or five inches and he was jostling with the guy, any excuse, I reckon we just lynch him and get it over with

Saty - I'm no fan of the Hogan bashing that's going on these days, but let's be realistic.  If you watch the shirt pull from Bews it barely lasts a second and Hogan falls over as if he's been shot.  It's not a good look.  As LH said earlier, had he been doing the team thing he could have laid the shepherd and allowed Jeffy to goal.

So youre saying the defender slightly pulling Jesse toward him somehow made him fly the opposite way?

LOL this guy.

Jesse played for a free with soccer style theatrics  it was embarrassing. And you surely know that.

Unless you are actually either Bews or Hogan, nobody knows exactly what transpired, just because a young guy has not signed a contract, even though he has a year to run, we have page after page of vilification, to me it is pathetic. He may have tried to make sure the umpires noticed, hey a forward actually doing that, come forward Thomas, Reiwoldt, Motlop, Stevie J et al, they have all done it at some stage

He is one player, if he signs great, if he doesn't we move on, 54 pages of twaddle up to now

The more you play for frees the less you get them.  You even start missing the ones you should get.  Gary Lyon became embarrassing late in his career.

Someone should have a word in Hogan's ear.

All of that is great Saty, but as I said, my view had nothing to do with his contract situation at all.  I'm purely looking at the footage - if it was hard pull on the jumper, or a long one, he would have been pulled to ground towards Bews.  Instead it's a quick tug of the jumper and he falls, theatrically, the opposite way.  He played for a free kick, plain and simple.  That's not me criticising him, or blaming it on his contract situation.  It's just what it is.

    BLOW THE SIREN by Meggs

    Fremantle hosted the Demons on a sunny 20-degree Saturdayafternoon winning the toss and electing to defend in the first quarter against the 3-goal breeze favouring the Parry Street end. There was method here, as this would give the comeback queens, the Dockers, last use of the breeze. The Melbourne Coach had promised an improved performance, and we did start better than previous weeks, winning the ball out of the middle, using the breeze advantage and connecting to the forwards.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.

    REMATCH by Meggs

    The Mighty Demons take on the confident Cats this Saturday night at the recently completed $319 million redeveloped GMHBA Stadium, with the bounce of the ball at 7:15pm. Our last game of 2023 was an agonisingly close 5-point semi-final loss to Geelong, and we look forward to Melbourne turning the tables this week. Practice match form was scratchy for both teams with the Demons losing practice matches to Carlton and Port Adelaide, while the Cats beat Collingwood but then lost to Essendo

    WELCOME 2024 by Meggs

    It’s been hard to miss the seismic global momentum happening in Women’s sport of late. The Matildas have been playing to record sell-out crowds across Australia and ‘Mary Fowler is God’ is chalked onto footpaths everywhere. WNBA basketball rookie sensation Caitlin Clark has almost single-handedly elevated her Indiana Fever team to unprecedented viewership, attendances and playoffs in the USA.   Our female Aussie Paris 2024 Olympians won 13 out of Australia’s all-time record 18 gol
