Delighted he has signed on.

Will take a lot of pressure off him and I'm sure we will see him fulfill his potential to be a champ, in the red and the blue!

Thanks Jesse!

Jesse's comments: “What excites me about Melbourne is the young talent we’ve got. We feel like we are building something special and that’s something I want to be a part of...“Goody (Simon Goodwin) has been great; we’ve got a really close relationship and I think he is going to be great for me personally next year and the rest of the boys as well".

Thanks Goody!

    Amazing news.  Yeah, a 4 year deal would have been better, but he is playing for us for the next 3 years and we can now focus on becoming a consistent footy side that plays finals.  Bloody brilliant stuff, couldn't be happier.

    America de Cali will be very disappointed.  What a shame.

    “Obviously a lot has been made of me being a Perth boy, but the Club has been great in allowing me to head home when I can and that’s something that’s made my decision much easier. They’ve been really good with my situation and something that I am really appreciative of.”

    Only 2 more years hey?

    Clearly gone at the end of this contract.

    Damn @Nasher

    Beat me by a few seconds.....

    Called it that it would be sorted before trade period. Was confident the club would have traded him if he didn't re-sign before that period. Zero chance they would have gone into 2017 without having him sign an extension.

    Well done Dees for giving him time but also not being pushovers.  got it done by trade period.

    Thanks for staying Jesse!

    Not unless they change the FA period to 6 years before then.

    At least now I can concentrate on my work without having to look at the Hogan contract thread 25 times a day

    Wonder how many opinions of his playing ability and attitude will change now he has re signed?

     

    Great news Jesse, and well done to the Footy team for getting the job done.

    I disagree. But it is the very defintion of a moot point

    Hogan will become a free agent at the end of either 2020 or 2021 I believe

    But he will have been with the club 7 years by then. Doesn't the first year count because he could only play with Casey?

    He will be an RFA at the end of this contract under current rules.  

     

    I remember reading the AFL have stated that 2013 as a 17 yo counts towards FA status.

    Great news, unsure of why anyone would be disappointed about the length of the deal, or why the assumption is that he'll be gone after this one.

    Who knows what the situation will be like in three years. Perhaps he'll fall more in love with the club and his team mates by then. 

    A monumental signing.

    A big boost for the club. You can't continue to have your good players walk out year after year.

    • POSTGAME: Essendon

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

    • GAMEDAY: Essendon

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      As the focus of the AFL moves exclusively to South Australia for Gather Round, the question is raised as to what are we going to get from the  Melbourne Football Club this weekend? Will it be a repeat of the slop fest of the last three weeks that have seen the team score a measly 174 points and concede 310 or will a return to the City of Churches and the scene where they performed at their best in 2024 act as a wakeup call and bring them out of their early season reverie?  Or will the sleepy Dees treat their fans to a reenactment of their lazy effort from the first Gather Round of two years ago when they allowed the Bombers to trample all over them on a soggy and wet Adelaide Oval? The two examples from above tell us how fickle form can be in football. Last year, a committed group of players turned up in Adelaide with a businesslike mindset. They had a plan, went in confidently and hard for the football and kicked winning scores against both home teams in a difficult environment for visitors. And they repeated that sort of effort later in the season when they played Essendon at the MCG.
