Sightly?

gwsampo, are you the riddler?

I get the feeling that was all this talk between Jesse's manager and the club & media, Jesse is nothing more then the:

"The eight of us march forward, not back.  To protect our king from foes attack'.

in this ongoing shemozzle.

Thanks, as I suspected.  

It wasn't Hogan's management being quoted at all.  And I wouldn't read much into McLure's comments, which may just mean we're not close to a decision.

Never, I repeat never, trust a poster's version of what they heard on the radio or tv.

I heard it differently.

Healy said he called Hogan's management for a comment on the recent scuttle butt. Healy relayed to the listeners that Hogan's management denied any contract extension had taken place and basically inferred that an extension is miles away.

Are we but pawns? I think so.

pretty funny stuff... 

Rumours and such develop on DL

someone  adds two and two somewhere and comes up with 5 and posts it as near to as truth somewhere else.  Media who trawl ( and troll ) through DL pick up a sniff of nothing and feel compelled to say something as though knowledgeable .  DL hear the mumblings of the media and recycle.same.

 

Much like an Escher staircase me thinks

Id rather these rumours that he has signed , more than rumours that he is going.

If Jesse Hogan asked, "What do we stand for as a footy club", what answer would he get back?

Perhaps if any of us knew the answer to that question, and it was something that was strong and positive, then re-signing with us would be a lot easier for him to do so.

Quite frankly, I still despair of our footy club. After 3 years under Paul Roos, we lost our last game by more than 100 points, and no-one has come up with a fair dinkum reason as to why that happened. We talk about our future prospects, and offer that as a reason why Jesse should re-sign with our club, but what happened in the most recent  game that we played?

They both carry the same amount of weight, that is, nothing

Im not convinced that is true actually. It is very rare a player leaving a club is not preemted by rumours, partic high profile players.

Rumors on sen now on trading places - Hogan has signed for 4 years . Their looking for confirmation .

If they're looking for confirmation, they need to go to the source, which is Dr. Turf's daughter.

Be honest, there wouldn't be one reason you'd accept.  For you there is no excuse, so why ask for a "reason" when there's not one you'd tolerate ?

GWS lost to lowly Melbourne in round 23 last year and should've made the GF this year.  That capitulation at Etihad had no bearing on their 2016.

The Bulldogs lost to lowly Freo, who had 3 wins coming into the match, in round 23 this year and are about to play in the GF.

Point being ?  Don't get so fixated on one match, especially when that match meant nothing and the team was on average younger and more inexperienced than any other for the bulk of the year.  It's called "young weary bodies with nothing on the end of it getting a belting".  But that excuse won't cut it for you so why ask ?

I know the 2 examples I just gave weren't by 100 points, which will be your sticking point, but the magnitude of the loss means nothing in the scheme of things.  The next worse loss was by 55 points against Sydney, so we had one 10 + goal hiding for the year and beat Hawthorn in the process.  A side that beat us by 105 the year before.  

That 105 loss now means nothing.  And nor does round 23 against Geelong.

and to add to that, i don't believe Jesse is going to be very worried about 1 performance when it's weighed against our overall improvement.

Bumped into a Melbourne supporter mate yesterday, who went to the BnF night, and saw a girl there that he knew, spending a lot of the night with Jesse. 

Later when my mate spoke to her, she claimed "if there is one thing i'd say about Jesse, is that I think he'll go back to Perth". 

Obviously take with a grain of salt.. but thought i'd share anyway.

You are asking for a lot of flak saying these kind of heresies here. Amazing is it. The Bulldogs have a tremendous upheaval, coach sacked, senior players jumping ship in 2014, their list condemned as shyte, tipped for the 2015 wooden spoon and injury upon injury. Now look at them. While us going through a meticulous rebuild with some supposedly great draft picks and showing some modest improvement  but none of the spirit and fight of the dogs. If he goes I think we will be in a better place. Pandering to Prima Donna's  with crap body language who play hard to get can only lead to grief.

Guys, spoke to my contact yesterday. 

Bottom line is the club has presented Jesses management with a number of contracts. Freo and WCE have both l approached Melbourne about a trade. We have told them to bugger off in no uncertain terms.  He did however say that this might be a playing games tactic.

Jesses decision will not be based around anything but the go home factor. 

Club is HOPING and expects to hear something next week.  

After speaking to him i came away with the feeling that Jesse will be playing for us next year with either a new contract or on the existing one.  

Anyway I'm ready to be shot down...... LOL.

Also said we are still in dialogue with Barlow and club is confident of landing him as a nice up-grade in Matt Jones.

Didnt know anything about us being interested in Motlop.

Perhaps you'd like to list all the AFL clubs and answer your own question, what do they stand for, what do Adelaide stand for? What about Freo or Brisbane, maybe GWS or Gold Coast. What does any football club stand for, maybe to win a flag or to be successful each year.

Maybe we could start up a focus group and see what we can come up with.

So in the last few days, both Dr Turf & Steven Stretch have publicly expressed that they have a feeling/expect him to sign a long term deal.

This on-top of both Roos & Goodwin recently saying they expect him to stay.

Only good signs one can assume? :rolleyes:

 

 

Where/When did Steven Stretch say this?

North Melbourne stand on principle and do not have pokies venues. It costs them, but they do it.

But yeah other than that, I can't think of any clubs taking a proper moral stance on anything.

Thanks FD, I appreciate you passing on the details of the conversation with your 'contact', knowing that your sharing it 'for what it's worth' with your fellow supporters.

A Players managers' wife is an aquantance of mine. On Tuesday morning she said 'hubby' had not heard much about Jesse?

Interesting, so how does that play out if the club told WCE and FRE where to go and Jesse tells them next week he wants to go home? 

i assume they're decent trade offers from both sides?

Maybe he rejected he clingy attitude and she took that as him not committing to her because he wants to go back to Perth.

    EASYBEATS by Meggs

    A beautiful sunny Friday afternoon, with a light breeze and a strong Windy Hill crowd set the scene, inviting one team to seize the day and take the important four points on offer. For the Demons it was not a good Friday, easily beaten by an all-time largest losing margin of 65 points.   Essendon threw themselves into action today, winning most of the contests and had three early goals with Daria Bannister on fire.  In contrast the Demons were dropping marks, hesitant in close and comm

    DEFUSE THE BOMBERS by Meggs

    Last Saturday’s crushing loss to Fremantle, after being three goals ahead at three quarter time, should be motivation enough to bounce back for this very winnable Round 5 clash at Windy Hill. A first-time venue for the Melbourne AFLW team, this should be a familiar suburban, windy, footy environment for the players.   Essendon were brave and competitive last week against ladder leader Adelaide at Sturt’s home ground. A familiar name, Maddison Gay, was the Bombers best player with

    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.
