    Not sure if you guys have noticed, but Jesse Hogan has been getting a lot of his ball on the wings these past few weeks. Jack Watts has actually been out full forward a lot of the time. Now with Weiderman in the side, fitting all these forwards together will be a nice problem for Goodwin to solve over the next year or so.

    Up there with Olisik's thread on Nathan Jones as the worst thread on here this year.

    Some just can't enjoy winning.  What a shame that is.

    Maybe would be worth playing him at CHB

    Keep your opinions about other posters to yourself mate. No one cares.

    Yeah, nah.

    How is that Nathan Jones thread going, by the way?  Embarrassing.

    We need Hogan to trade for Nat Fyfe.

    Will that trade come with extra expenses for his prosthetic leg?

    No issues with that thread mate, also it has nothing to do with Jesse. Only thing embarrasing is you clutching at straws to have a go at people. As I said, keep it to yourself as no one cares.

    No. To the idea. Yes we do.

    Absolutely we need Jesse Hogan. Lets not forget the kid is 21 years old! To put that in perspective Josh J Kennedy is 28, Buddy 29 and even 'the best player in the comp' Tom Lynch is 23. 

    Sure he can mope around times etc. but he is still a baby in relative terms...  so give him a break, and watch him continue to grow and dominate! Wouldn't trade him for the world....

    One good win, and look at all these cocky idiots coming out of the wood works.

    Yeh, best young forward in memory is superfluous.  Silly...when we win premierships we can start thinking about this rubbish. Keep it in perspective - the win should be a stepping stone, and hogan is essential for the future.

    And can we get over the up the ground stuff, he's a CHF, he'll be a multiple time AA because doing that stuff while kicking 70 goals a year

    Watts - swingman

    Gawn - resting bomb-ball pack buster.

     

    It's all coming together. Our coach in waiting must be pinching himself after today. The players can feel it now.

    On the balance of probabilities, at the end of the day, when considering all future contingencies and likelihoods, and upon scrutinising the range of potential results vis-a-vis whole-team performance, seasonal fluctuations and eventualities of numerous match-ups in diverse circumstances, one is led to the conclusion that, barring unforseeable and extraordinary eventualities our relative position is improved, both now and into the future, by the continuing presence of Jesse Hogan in or around our forward line.

    Would be a top 3 back man right now if played there. Is a promising forward. Has shown enough to even suggest he is worth 1 million a year. Given he can play at both ends, I see no problem with offering the kid a stack. Buddy is on a stack, Rance is on a stack, and this kid can do it at either end. Not just forward, and not just back. Could probably even be a rover. I've seen him ruck our forward line effectively as well (at times). There is nothing Hogan cannot do. You don't go getting rid of those type of players. Not for Fyfe, or for anyone.

They also look ahead to the season with their predictions, the players they expect to rise, their expectations for the team, and what they see as a realistic pass mark for Melbourne in 2026.

    • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      When the Demons blew their 46-point lead at Marvel Stadium in Round 20 last year, the fallout was enormous. Like an event straight out of a Shakespearean tragedy, Melbourne’s final-quarter collapse left fans reeling and the club grappling with the aftermath.

    • PREGAME: St. Kilda

      With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

    • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

      Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

    • REPORT: Richmond

      Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.

    • POSTGAME: Richmond

      The Dees ran another clinic for the second week in a row as they easily accounted for the Tigers in the lightning interrupted shortened match at Mars Stadium in Ballarat.
