As long as we are 6 years into it. 

7 years is realistic, but a 5 year plan seems realistic enough too. 

But let's say we started in 2014, by those calculations, we'd win one by 2020. I think it's more realistic that our window opens in earnest by 2018 and certainly by 2019.

Poor form for a misplacer.

I have tried to stay out of this thread as i say stupid [censored] too often, but here is my opinion anyway....

BB and ADC have a point that if Hoges goes it wont be the end of the world. We are building nicely with or without him and the compo we can fairly expect would be good.

But i hope to high heaven that Jesse re-signs. OK, so he is a shite kick from outside 50.. and granted, his body language has been fuggin disgraceful for most of the season... and his head seems to be in the wrong place..... and.... and....

Stop for a minute and just think how good this fella will be when his head and heart are sorted and he directs all his energy at the contest ???

I can only imagine how he must have been feeling during the year if his old man is as crook as some have suggested. If that was me i would have been pizzwrecked all year and unable to even kick a footy lets alone dominate a game the way that us supporters hope/expect.

His signature is possibly the most important for MFC since Roos and Peter Jackson inked their first contracts. Hogan signs and we can realistically expect to have other names consider us who otherwise might not have.

The kid has future champion written all over him, and he will make others walk taller.

Geez that's a big call from him, surely he doesn't say that unless he's certain.

Ralph seemed very confident that the deal is done. Said that Jesse's father has told Jesse not to come back to WA for him. Ralph also says that Freeo have not been approached by Jesse's management and that all the talk about Jesse going back was to ratchet up Melbourne's financial offer.

All makes sense.  I have always been confident he would stay,..  Im more sceptical the announcement will be today, but we will see if Ralph delivers.

Seriously?  Wow, that's a huge call.  At least it's not a useless twitter account and from someone who is, theoretically, in the know.

Going to be a long day waiting to see if it comes to fruition.

Dunno if it was about Jesse but I heard there will be something about us on the Rumour File this morning, anyone catch it?

Ross Stevenson said that he'd heard Jesse was going to sign a 4 year deal this week.

I still think all of this hype, is Management driven, to secure a better deal from us.

FWIW, I think he will stay beyond 2017.

Spoke to my contact last night and to cut a long story short Jesse will be playing for MFC next year and club is more than confident we will get a signature this week. 

 

So no announcement today?

    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

    EPILOGUE by Whispering Jack

    I sit huddled in near darkness, the only light coming through flickering embers in a damp fireplace, the room in total silence after the thunderstorm died. I wonder if they bothered to restart the game.  No point really. It was over before it started. The team’s five star generals in defence and midfield ruled out of the fray, a few others missing in action against superior enemy firepower and too few left to fly the flag for the field marshal defiantly leading his outnumbered army int
