Why doesn't someone say, Quote:" we are all adults here, how much do you want, and what can we help you with. And while i'm on the subject, and as we are adults, you have a responsibility to be fair and honest with your fellow players, the Club and the supporters as well as to yourself and your family, so make up your ###ken mind"

I'll be disappointed if the club doesn't proactively sort this soon.

The whole waiting for CBA is rubbish. Can/is accommodated in others dealings already.

Id call his bluff.  'bout the club !!

The club has contacted Jesse and told him some on DL are in a hysterical psychotic state and that he must publicly announce his intentions. Subsequently there will  be a presser today at 3.00 PM. 

Gee, calm down, clearly the parties are working toward a result and DL meltdown is not going to change it or speed it up. Love the timeframe demands on here

I have always said Jesse will eventually return home. When? i have no idea just a personal opinion. Deep down his heart has always been set on Perth.

I'd like to ask though if it is worth the club sitting down with Jesse soon and asking him the question if he does want to return? I think with Freo having pick 3 this year it could be the only chance they could actually give us something decent back in return.

Hardly in a meltdown Red. I may be among the lesser number here who simply doesn't think he is quite the football progidy many others guffaw. He is good for sure but very lazy and inconsistent. He isnt for mine an absolute necessity for our success. Our fwd 50 actually functions better without him currently . Imho

Right atm we need more grunt and class in the middle. We can muster goalkicking players.

My view is simply along the lines of PR himself who says you don't wait till contracts are up to sort your list.

Even though that comment was more directed at FA the likes of Hogans situation is the same; so treat as same

He signs before trade week or trade him.

Is about Melbourne....not 'tickets on self'

That's what I'm saying. If he leaves at the end of 2017 we will get a worse value deal, and it also delays our plans for 12 months as we have been playing a guy who won't be there. He doesnt have to sign a new deal before trade week but needs to tell the club whether he is staying or going. If he isn't traded but doesn't sign by start of 2017 it'll be a really bad look and won't end well when Freo lowball us because he is OOC.

I have a feeling that if we keep him we may end up with a cross  between Fevola and Richardson. Sure he will kick a stack of goals  like they did but also a distraction, high maintenance  and ultimately lack of team success.  We lack the strong leadership and culture to keep his ego in check. He has to change his ways.

Spot on mate. I'm a bigger fan of Hogan more then anyone but not emotionally invested like i use to in the past with Scully Farmer Woewodin. I have now learnt to have a supporter hat on and thats it.

The club is bigger then the individual and personally its all about the future for me. If Hogan is 50/50 on going home then the club has to sit down and ask the question. As you said we simply cannot have Hogan playing in 2017 with his mind set on Perth.

We need to look after our own backyard too and if that means a pick 3 plus Lachie Weller that so be it.

Its either your with us on this journey or not.

By the way, he had no issues with extending his contract middle of 2014 for another two years when there was interest from Freo at the time.

Why would he be delaying this time round? Wait another year to see if he could fall in love with Melbourne, or is his heart already set to go home?

For sure there are guys who wait until the end to recommit, but my guess is they are waiting to field more offers (eg jeremy howe). Hogan would already have offers from other clubs albeit informal

Reading newspaper from the west Hogan should remain a Demon on big bucks. The club will  not progress as much as most will anticipate in 2017. We don't yet have enough depth to cover our stars if they get injured,certainly I hope that I am wrong. My problem is that other clubs seem to be getting the spoils from Gawn.We have no decent backup ruckman,preferably we need a forward/ruckman. I would like to see N.Jones play in a different position,it is about time someone else takes on the responsibilty.

Glad you haven't got Mahoney's job .

He's not the Messiah Red. He's not as important as some, possibly yourself think.

To empower a kid to [censored] you around isn't clever. Is it ?

I love how any word of an MFC player leaving is shut down as nonsense and the source is more often than not, ridiculed, yet any word of another club's player coming to melbourne is treated with anticipation. Its gold watching it play out time after time. Fair dinkum , most of you lot on here are pathetic cultists. The dozen or so that keep an even keel are a great read but the rest is a pyschs dream

How was that word of an MFC player leaving? That was ADC doing his usual wrist slash, saying that Watts and co were idiots to sign on, implying we're such a hopeless mess. Has nothing to do with an inside word on a player leaving. ADC has been preparing his scarred heart for months in the small chance that Hogan might leave. He has no inside info, merely an opinion and one that is tediously pessimistic.

How do you know he is f...ing us around? Maybe he has told us he wants to stay but wants to wait to finalise a deal. Maybe we have given him a certain time to advise us. Maybe other possibilities. 

I just don't think the club works to DL timeframes.

Im not at all sure what we have in Hogan. He has amazing talent and understanding of the nuances and yet he's also very frustrating . Hishead often seems elsewhere. I've not come to a comfort that he's bought "in" 

His game is very one-way and yet he does many clever things.

He's good. I am very happy if indeed he does choose to stay. Maybe his slovenly ways might evaporate.

I really can't fathom there's a real impediment to signing....if he's staying.

I reckon he'll stay.

That said, he should watch Open Mike with Paul Roos and check out the bit on Roos' time at Fitzroy to see what club loyalty and good character looks like.

And IMO this stuff is important. It's why movies like Platoon, Gallipoli and Breaker Morant still make the heart beat faster - certain people can't be bought. Their character is what defines them. Just sign up to the cause Jesse and be done with it.

I am concerned with him on a long fat contract and if his slovenly ways persist. I also see little chemistry between him and his team mates.  Some talented players who have just received lucrative contracts can slacken off.  We have had our fair share. With him we may be expecting the opposite.

He is in esteemed company flunking chemistry and physics as I failed both and also maths for good measure. I should have been a science teacher.

14 marks (5 contested) in round 22 seems to account to nothing.  Prior to this weekend Riewoldt's record was 18 marks.

But at least Schwarz is saying Hogan should take a leaf out of Hawkin's book.  It only took Hawkins 6 seasons to have a breakout year and 69 games to reach Hogan's tally of 85.

 

 

Agree ... As Roos said kid is 21 & playing his second year in the toughest position.. FFS expectations too high.. Many forwards have taken 4-5 seasons to become consistent good players... He's just another young player developing along with petracca, Oliver, etc etc..

He might want to hold off until the end of his contract. Gives him more time to weigh up his options. I doubt he would be in a rush to head to Freo atm. That could change if they improve next year. Hogan doesn't have to make a decision whilst he is still contracted. Be surprised if the club didn't push for an answer regardless (this trade period).

    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.

    Lack of preparation after a problematic preseason prevented Oliver from reaching the high standards set before last year’s hamstring woes. He carried injury right through the back half of the season and was controversially involved in a potential move during the trade period that was ultimately shut down by the club.

    BLOODY BLUES by Meggs

    The conclusion to Narrm’s home and away season was the inevitable let down by the bloody Blues  who meekly capitulated to the Bombers.   The 2024 season fixture handicapped the Demons chances from the get-go with Port Adelaide, Brisbane and Essendon advantaged with enough gimme games to ensure a tough road to the finals, especially after a slew of early season injuries to star players cost wins and percentage.     As we strode confidently through the gates of Prin

    Melbourne’s most important player who dominated the first half of the season until his untimely injury in the Kings Birthday clash put an end to his season. At the time, he was on his way to many personal honours and the club in strong finals contention. When the season did end for Melbourne and Petracca was slowly recovering, he was engulfed in controversy about a possible move of clubs amid claims about his treatment by the club in the immediate aftermath of his injury.
