The Jesse Hogan Panic Room - all contract talk here


Grapeviney

Recommended Posts

If Hogan left we'd be looking at Freo's 1st this year (3) and next year.  We should be able to convert them into something like Tom Mitchell, Hamish Hartlett and Michael Hibberd and leave our picks intact.  That's where it sits IMO.  That's why it's important for Hogan to decide.

I agree he needs to decide now, but Freo won't be allowed to trade next years 1st unless they get another 1st through trades this summer, as they'll have only used one 1st in 4 years.

Very good point!  And they don't have a 2nd this year either.  It would have to be some Judd-style deal then 3, 2017 2nd, good player.

It's quite possible with those deals needing to get done and high value pick 3 that Freo are biding their time until next year before pushing it.

Freo definitely would prefer to get him next year value wise, they'll want to keep 3 for sure. On the other hand we would want to get it done this year whilst they have 3 and the fact we need to learn to play without him long term if he goes so might as well go now.

 McCarthy walked out of GWS and stood down for the season. What's the deal there.? Is he like any other contracted player?

Said he was suffering from some form of mental illness and needed to get home as part of the remedy.

Will be traded like any other contracted player. I actually had no issue with what GWS did, they wanted to make a stand regarding players and I think they sent a message. Sure they'll lose out in value (They would have ended up with pick 3 this year...) but it was ridiculous how McCarthy signed a new deal then a couple months later wanted out.

If Jesse wanted to go back west next year, he would have to tell us within the next 4 weeks, as trade week starts then.

We can assume then, that if we are not told that by the end of trade week, that he is probably happy to extend his contract with us.

I don't see him playing an extra year with us, if he wants to go home and then allowing Freo to screw us, when he is uncontracted. 

We have been good to him, paid a lot for him and  paid him for a year, when he was out injured.

I think he would want us to be treated fairly, if he chose to leave.

Agree. 

I think he'll stay. Even if there is a big pull to live near family i honestly can't see how attractive Freo would be to go to as a club (its funny how all the talk is freo and not WC at all, though i suppose they have Kennedy).  They're now in a rebuild and realistically 2-3 years behind us in terms of that rebuild. They don't have that many young guns on the list. As i've noted the travel factor is a huge negative, particularly for  a KP with a history of back issues. And i reckon Ross Lyon would be a pretty intimating coach and i wonder how Jesse would go with him.

And there is no doubt the club and Jesse are aware of this, no doubt the conversations have already happened to see where he's at as far as extending, I suspect the future of Dawes might be tied to the outcome of that conversation.

The club knows Jesse is our biggest trade asset, maybe Gawn is the only other one in the same conversation and if he leaves we simply have to get a good return on him,

Redleg, that's well reasoned logic albeit with one caveat.  There's been several oblique references on here to the nature of the family issue Jesse is contending with and Paul Roos made an even more subtle reference to it.  It would seem apparent that resolution of that issue is likely a primary driver in Jesse's decision making.  Unfortunately, the timing of the resolution is not a controllable variable and hence the possibility remains that we end up getting screwed, albeit inadvertently.

Roos ever the diplomat  will skirt around any unpalatable truth if negotiations are in progress. Family reasons is the least controversial angle he could put on it. Family reasons may be the truth or not but could also be a face saving move for all parties involved in an effort to get a deal done.

The news I got at the best and fairest, from another of our players who was tight with jesse-

He was absolutely staying until about July. Since then he's gotten homesick and is more likely to leave than stay. This player said it's his gut feeling he will make that known at the exit meetings, which will be had after Casey finish the finals.

Faaark me. Homesick?! 

Would explain his last 6 weeks of footy too. Him leaving will put us back a long long way.

Perf is an isolated country town, full of screaming meatheads (and my nephew, who is awesome)

Why the hell would he be homesick for a place like that?

    GAMEDAY: Rd 11 vs St. Kilda

    It's Game Day and after 2 losses on the trot the Dees must win against the Saints today at the MCG to keep in touch with the Top 4. A loss today will see them drop out of the Top 8 for the first time since 2020.

    HEAVEN OR HELL by The Oracle

    Clashes between Melbourne and St Kilda are often described as battles between the forces of heaven and hell. However, based on recent performances, it’s hard to get excited about the forthcoming match between these two sides. It would be fair to say that, at the moment, both of these teams are in the doldrums. The Demons have become the competition’s slow starters while the Saints are not only slow to begin, they’re not doing much of a job finishing off their games either. About the only th

    THE BLOW by Whispering Jack

    Narrm’s finals prospects took a crushing blow after the team’s insipid performance at Optus Stadium against a confident Waaljit Marawar in the first of its Doug Nicholls Round outings for 2024.  I use the description “crushing blow” advisedly because, although the season is not yet at it’s halfway mark, the Demons have now failed abysmally in two of their games against teams currently occupying bottom eight places on the ladder.  The manner in which these losing games were played out w

    HALF FULL by KC from Casey

    It was a case of the Casey Demons going into a game with a glass half full in their match up against the Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields on Saturday. As the list of injured and unavailable AFL and VFL listed players continues to grow and with Melbourne taking all three emergencies to Perth for the weekend on a “just in case” basis, its little brother was always destined to struggle. Casey was left with only eight AFL listed players from who to select their team but only two - an out-of-form

    POSTGAME: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    Many warned that this was a danger game and the Demons were totally outclassed all game by a young Eagles team at Optus Stadium in Perth as they were defeated by 35 points.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have returned to the site of their drought breaking Premiership to take on the West Coast Eagles in what could very well be a danger game for Narrm at Optus Stadium. A win and a percentage boost will keep the Dees in top four contention whilst a loss will cast doubt on the Dees flag credentials and bring them back to the pack fighting for a spot in the 8 as we fast approach the halfway point of the season.
