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.

  • POSTGAME: Hawthorn

    Wayward kicking for goal, dump kicks inside 50 and some baffling umpiring all contributed to the Dees not getting out to an an early lead that may have impacted the result. At the end of the day the Demons were just not good enough and let the Hawks run away with their first win against the Demons in 7 years.

  • NON-MFC: Round 09

    Round 9 kicks off out west with the Dockers hosting a Collingwood side resting several stars. Fremantle need to make a statement on their home deck after some disappointing form on the road, while the Magpies will be keen to maintain their Top 2 position. Friday night sees a must-win clash between two sides desperate to stay in touch with the eight. St Kilda have shown glimpses while Carlton are clinging to relevance after a flat start to the season. Saturday’s twilight game at Marvel pits the Bombers against a struggling Sydney outfit. Essendon can’t afford another close match against a lower-ranked side, while the Swans risk sliding down the ladder even further. Up in Darwin, the fourth-placed Suns will look to extend their stay in the top four. The Bulldogs have hit their stride with three big wins on the trot and will be very keen to consolidate on their momentum. The always fiery Showdown looms as pivotal for both clubs. Adelaide are eyeing a spot in the Top 4 with a win, while Port Adelaide’s season could slip away if they drop another game and fall further behind the pack. Sunday begins with a yawn fest between Richmond and West Coast. The Tigers need to bank the points to stay clear of the bottom two, while the Eagles are still chasing their first win of the year. The Giants face one of the league’s toughest road trips as they travel to GMHBA Stadium to face the Cats. With GWS at risk of a third straight loss, Geelong will be eager to consolidate their position inside the eight and start their climb up the ladder. The round wraps up with the top-of-the-table Lions heading to Ninja Stadium to take on the second-last Roos. The Lions should easily take care of the struggling Roos who might be powerless against the best in the comp. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?
