The Jesse Hogan Panic Room - all contract talk here

I still think he'll sign again with the club, but it will be on a shorter term deal, like 2-3 years.  He'll get paid well, can focus on his footy and then re-assess and see if we are beginning to look like a serious premiership contender.  If not, well... 

Having said all that, a factor he mentioned is where a club is headed.  Freo don't exactly look all that flash right now, especially with Fyfe's future up in the air, so that can only be a positive for us.

Why? Because he might stay - and we might become a great footy side, and then you'd have nothing to be so bitter about? ;)
 

I get a bit sick of this waiting to see how the team is traveling - we heard it from Chip and now Jesse and  Tom Mac. They need to show some leadership and drive the improvement, as Jack Viney is doing. I wish they were invested like he is.


Ok  Ill put it out there.. The guy is obviously full of shlt..or his manager is...

 

its not that hard to fathom. You have either bought in by now...or you havent.   Whatever

The new players BPA  thingy/whatever is a furphy..its irrelevant.

 

You know..I dont care..Good if he stays... we still exist if he doesnt...life goes on.. Melbourne remains mediocre ..what changes ?

People perennially postulate awaiting the swinging blade...whats new ?

If he's in...great...if not..  well...

 

they're all bloody widgets.....

I doubt he's actually waiting to see how we go. He's just got to say something. He can't really say, "I'm definitely staying, just playing hard ball to get a bit more cash out of the club" or "staying? U joking?".

If he goes home to surf with mates he isn't a serious footballer. 

Freo are a disaster. West Coast don't need him, and he doesn't strike me as someone who wants to compete for top dog claim (which he will have to do playing with Kennedy) 

He is more likely to leave for another Melbourne team for success and/or money. Since I can't see anyone capable of paying him more than us (not significantly anyway), I hope that he can be confident in our success going forward and stays on. The better we keep playing, the more chances he will stick around. 

and he is a 98% chance of getting eaten by sharks in WA ,as well as becoming a Bike gang member,possible murderer.

If sending Dee supporters on a downer was a bannable offence, half the posters here would be banning themselves from life.

If Jesse is a crow supporter then surely the chance to play under one the crows greatest ever players in Goodwin for a couple of years is a enticing prospect?

Can only asume the source is someone close to the Pres. and that Jesse approved its the disclosure. It suggests that he is trying to shut down conjecture and we are the likely end result. Of course the club needs some certainty before it commits to other trade decisions.

that just about sums up the glass half full / glass half empty interpretation continuum associated with this!  No original source material - just a perspective on the Fox Sports interview.

For me (and I'm a glass half full guy on this particular topic), the key was where he hesitated slightly and quickly added "or whatever the case may be".

I've thought for some time that our risk is not in losing Jesse to WA (Freo or West Coast).  It is losing him to another Victorian club who are going places.  Fortunately the Dogs and Saints have their hands full in terms of competing young teams.  That leaves the perennial (Hawthorn), the smokey (Geelong - if they axe Clarke and figure that the game is passing Hawkins by) and the rank outsider (Pies).

On a side note can't remember who said it but The Age now has our correct logo on it. 

Funni though cause as soon as someone on here brought it up it was a day or so later that it was changed. 

Demonland is a gold mine for papers and journos! We do there jobs for them.

It's a [censored] quote, really. He's just saying it to cover his arse, because the whole "go home" factor is emasculating and is frowned upon more now than it was 10-15 years. A guy like him, he'd never admit to wanting to go home. He'll play it as wanting to be in a competitive club.

Really?

Someone on here said that Bartlett told them we weren't trading Hogan. The journo probably got that bit from here. And the quotes are just ripped out of the fox interview. Also describes McCarthy as a goal sneak which suggests the journo knows nothing about footy and is too lazy to write 'cam mccarthy' into google.

I find that scenario impossible to believe.  Sounds like "Scully to Richmond" to me.

  • PREVIEW: Carlton

    Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.

  • REPORT: North Melbourne

    I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

  • CASEY: Werribee

    The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

    The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
