Haha do u think they won't want to trade with us anymore because we were mean to them?

I think it'd be silly to tell two sides to F-off rather than, look we'll know more in a week.

But Abe you're not going to portray to those clubs that you're even the slightest bit keen to do any deal are you? 

At least when this attitude is communicated you'll hope they realise they'll have to move heaven and earth to get any trade done.

I just don't see that it achieves anything, assuming flamingdees is correct of course. 

especially given it's so close to when they were supposed to get more of an answer from Jesse

Yes all part of the game.

If the two WA clubs call and say "we'd like Jesse, are you interested in trading him", of course you're going to say no. That's just basic negotiating, whether you are interested or not.

If Hogan comes out and says he wants to be traded then you can begin discussions but you still play hard ball. We're in a position of strength with him being contracted for another year.

Fair call, i guess it's more the way flamingdees worded it that i'm unsure of, i think you could tell them no without telling them to f-off

I'm sure he was embellishing a touch!

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?

 

And that's what the problem is. 

 

No one except Jesse and him manager know what his thinking right now.

If they said that in response to the speculation around him signing a 4 year extension, I'd be extremely despondent about his chances of staying.

And if they said it about the trade rumors, would you be equally upbeat about his chances of staying?

It's "he's" FFS.

I think the conversation would go along the lines of "what would it take to get Hogan this year". Our response would be "he's still a contracted player and we're not interested in negotiating" This will all change if Hogan doesn't recommit to club before trade week.

Hogan staying going of course he knows what he wants to do.The usual happens,Dee supporters are running around "stuffed in the head". Lets trade him to Gold Coast for 2M Peter and a set of steak Knives or a 2nd or 3rd pick and we could throw in ANB as a sweetener.Gold Coast can then have fun trading him.Simple solution and then someone can start a thread welcome to the Melbourne Football club 2M Peter.

Cool story Wayne except he would have to agree to Gold Coast which he never would.

"wear" even i couldn't let that one pass by!!

Come on Steve lift ur game mate!

I wish there was a way of knowing if there was any real news about Hogan re signing, I've opened this thread countless times, all to no avail.

Perhaps we could have an asterisk next to the thread title to show something of note has been posted.

 

Members'Wing of course I know that what I said is not going to happen,some of us need a SOH.

Or is it?

It could be that Jesse has a preferred way of being addressed. Check out this ... He, she or ze?

If Jesse doesn't identify as a Melbourne player then ze has a right to be addressed in the way ze feels comfortable with.

Maybe zir wants to play at an AFL club that is more embracing and respectful of differently-pronouned key forwards?

(This is a real thing in America. A growing movement. Beware.)

There is. You watch channel 7 news every night and wait for Tim Watson to say either "Hogan has re-signed" or "Hogan has been traded".

That way is best for your mental health and your longevity.

Hanging around on this thread ... well, if you don't stop it, you'll go blind.

Are people seriously liking Flamingdees post?

 

lol come on.

    It's Game Day and the Demons return to the MCG to face the Tigers in their annual Blockbuster on ANZAC Eve for the 10th time. The Dees will be desperate to reignite their stuttering 2025 campaign and claim just their second win of the season. Can the Demons dig deep and find that ANZAC Spirit to snatch back to back wins?

  • PREVIEW: Richmond

    A few years ago, the Melbourne Football Club produced a documentary about the decade in which it rose from its dystopic purgatory of regular thrashings to the euphoria of a premiership victory. That entire period could have been compressed in a fast motion version of the 2025 season to date as the Demons went from embarrassing basket case to glorious winner in an unexpected victory over the Dockers last Saturday. They transformed in a single week from a team that put in a pedestrian effort of predictably kicking the ball long down the line into attack that made a very ordinary Bombers outfit look like worldbeaters into a slick, fast moving side with urgency and a willingness to handball and create play with shorter kicks and by changing angles to generate an element of chaos that yielded six goals in each of the opening quarters against Freo.

  • NON-MFC: Round 07

    Round 7 gets underway in iconic fashion with the traditional ANZAC Day blockbuster. The high-flying Magpies will be looking to solidify their spot atop the ladder, while the Bombers are desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top eight. Later that evening, Fremantle will be out to redeem themselves after a disappointing loss to the Demons, facing a hungry Adelaide side with eyes firmly set on breaking into the top four. Saturday serves up a triple-header of footy action. The Lions will be looking to consolidate their Top 2 spot as they head to Marvel Stadium to clash with the Saints. Over in Adelaide, Port Adelaide will be strong favourites at home against a struggling North Melbourne. The day wraps up with a fiery encounter in Canberra, where the Giants and Bulldogs renew their bitter rivalry. Sunday’s schedule kicks off with the Suns aiming to bounce back from their shock defeat to Richmond, taking on the out of form Swans.Then the Blues will be out to claim a major scalp when they battle the Cats at the MCG. The round finishes with a less-than-thrilling affair between Hawthorn and West Coast at Marvel. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

  • REPORT: Fremantle

    For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

  • CASEY: UWS Giants

    The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

  • PREGAME: Richmond

    The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?
