According to DemonAndrew in the Tom Mac thread,  Greg Denham just stated on SEN that Hogan is not far away from re-signing with the Dees

Wouldn't put it past Venom top just be torturing the MFC faithful though   !

Funny the difference a year can make, 12 months ago Freo were undefeated premiership favourites, Nat Fyfe flying and though they had ageing stars i don't think anyone thought they'd fall away like they have.

On the assumption he has made a deal with Freo, and the rumours have been around since when Freo were still a powerhouse he could have made a handshake and brown paper bag deal.  If he has he must be seriously regretting it now. Though perhaps not legally binding how would he extricate himself from that I wonder.

You just walk away.

Not legally binding is a self explanatory term. 

 

Edit:- If a club is shady enough to enter into such an arrangement then they deserve to be stung. Lay down with dogs wake up with fleas.

PS:- They may have said, "Come and join a premiership contender"  They clearly are not, all deals off.

Denham said that T Mac is close to signing a long-term deal and "hopefully, Jesse Hogan next".  Geez, how things can get lost in translation.

Most honourable persons would like to think they can keep their word on an agreement prior to formalising legalities. But if he was seduced by false hopes and promises then I agree it would be easy to walk away. I am quite convinced  these  backdoor  deals done outside the spirit of the  rules  happen all the time.

lyon has publicly stated their season is shot (after only 9 games) and they'll focus on "development" players a.k.a. they are after the #1 draft pick come hell or high water. they are even cracking connolly style jokes and the media giggle and even draw up graphics on how they can "list manage" the season out for the #1 pick. hypocrites all.

Agreed! it's disgusting! but lets be honest, if they're going to get Jesse Hogan for example it's going to take at least pick 1 and a player to even get us to consider trading him this year and they won't waste more than one year at the bottom if they have any say in it.

Don't know about that. They will lose Sandilands, Pavlich, Johnson. Mundy having ongoing calf issues isn't a great sign for them. Barlow looks on the outer. Their rucks haven't progressed as expected. Fyfe is a long term injury concern - Hill likewise. Even if they land McCarthy, what is not to say he doesn't continue having issues. Neale mightn't re-sign (rumors of him wanting out). Fremantle are struggling at the moment, but things could get even worse for them. I don't think they will be a top 8 side for a long while yet.

Oh i 100% agree that they need a full re-build 4-5 years of good picks through the system while Pav and co are there to teach them, they remind me quite a lot of us before out big spell at the bottom, they've left the rebuild a little to late.

Understandable when the 'relay-er' happens to be none other than 'Petraccattack'.

King of all misinformation and exaggeration.

Hogan will re-sign in his own good time under manager guidance of course. Guaranteed. I posted that Howe was done & gone way before it happened. It happened. Jesse's building strong relationships within the playing group & staff, is settled in Melbourne & going to be a keeper. I'll back this one in.

Tim Gossage just said on SEN that there is absolutely no chance Hogan will be returning to WA. Hopefully his on the money.

Probably true then as his "information" is usually whatever makes the WA teams look good...

Tim Gossitch (no idea if that's how you spell it) the WA reporter for SEN just ended his section by saying emphatically "I'll leave you with this, there is no way Jesse Hogan will come back to WA, I'll give you more information next week". Only small, but enough to get me excited

Playing the grand old flag on Sen! 

Has Hogan signed or is he not going home.

Funny that, he was pretty sure Hogan was going to Freo a couple of weeks ago....

    TRAINING: Wednesday 13th November 2024

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
