6 months from now is January, which is before the start of next year.  It's not hard to picture Jesse saying to his manager I want it sorted out before the start of next season. Hence the 6 months.

If that was the case the club would announce it, not 3rd and by an anonymous source on a fan forum! 

Why would the club want to restart speculation and have negotiations take place under the media spotlight.  Because that is what GNF has done.

Its up to each of us to feel comfortable with certain posters "sources". Seen enough of GNF's work to feel comfortable.

If you can believe that.

This goes against my core beliefs.

I would suspect that the recent re-signing especially from Watts would have helped. There does seem to be an attitude of belief at the club these days, and Goodwin is very popular. Well done Jackson and Roos - whether he signs or not.

Would you believe they tested the sewerage in Perth and found that Perthians consume about 3.5 times more meth than us normals on the East coast.

My post was about your comment of 'managing expectations', and I said the club would have done that if they wanted it known.

All GNF has done is throw a genade out there for the next 6 months without adding anything to what was already known.  Just watch every media outlet and journo ask Melbourne people every other day about Jesse's contract status.  Hardly the way the club would choose to 'manage expectations'.

Confirmed: Hogan has informed our club he intends to re-sign. Contract negotiations have begun and will probably be completed this year but could take up to 6 months. 

you're one of the reasons I keep close to the site GNF. Love your work.

I've always thought he'd stay, because it just makes sense.  However, your assertion that it 'could' take 6 months is the comment that doesn't make sense.  There's no reason that I can fathom why it would take that long.

 

Odd indeed, the outcome of the new CBA maybe?

Surprising what having your knee slammed into a behind post can do!

By the way, GNF, you prob don't need me to remind you, but get ready for the s***storm likely to come after this post. And thanks for the info.

Yep, but also the one who posted the ridiculous puzzle about Dangerfield... that being said, love your work GNF!

Others will happily point out some of the trade rumours he has raised that didn't come to fruition.

Yep he was. He's got a couple of other big things right too, and also a couple wrong. He seems to offend certain people for some bizarre reason. No idea why people who think he's bullsh1tting don't simply ignore him.

He also said that Dion Prestia is a certainty this year. Although that rumour hasn't been proven false as of yet, it's getting there.

BIG CALL GNF. If it proves unfounded it will be the cyber-lynching of the century. :blink:

I heard from a very reliable source  that Roos was coming here a good four months before it happened and mentioned it here at the time. A few people were certain he was coming long before the fact for various reasons. I don't know what's happening with Hogan or TMac but remain skeptical just like I did with Scully and Frawley  As a fan I don't like it when players  put our fragile club  through  the ringer for their own ends.

Not quite. He said this, in May;

"If Dion chooses us as his preferred destination, he will end up a Dee. My understanding is Dion will choose us. Hogan will re-sign along with McDonald.  We are unlikely to lose regular 22 by choice. This is the firm belief of our club."

Not sure that's a lynching offence. Sounds like our interest in Prestia from previous years and earlier this year has cooled.

Boy, that was one belter of a week, regardless of the result.

Keep up the great work GNF! Been a keen follower since the Roos speculation days.

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.

    2024 Player Reviews: #3 Christian Salem

    The luckless Salem suffered a hamstring injury against the Lions early in the season and, after missing a number of games, he was never at his best. He was also inconvenienced by minor niggles later in the season. This was a blow for the club that sorely needed him to fill gaps in the midfield at times as well as to do his best work in defence.
