Lucifers Hero 40,756 Posted October 3, 2016 Posted October 3, 2016 HOGAN LOCKED IN UNTIL END OF 2019 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!
Wiseblood 24,637 Posted October 3, 2016 Posted October 3, 2016 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.
What 18,810 Posted October 3, 2016 Posted October 3, 2016 Massive. Huge. Awesome. Praise be to Jesse and the MFC.
spirit of norm smith 16,681 Posted October 3, 2016 Posted October 3, 2016 Yes just read on MFC website. Sensational news. Thanks Jesse. Lets unleash hell in 2017 !!
FarNorthernD 5,863 Posted October 3, 2016 Posted October 3, 2016 He is a key plank in our next premiership side.
Ted Lasso 19,586 Posted October 3, 2016 Posted October 3, 2016 “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.”
Nasher 33,686 Posted October 3, 2016 Posted October 3, 2016 In before someone sooks about the length of the contract. Great news!
faultydet 7,623 Posted October 3, 2016 Posted October 3, 2016 Only 2 more years hey? Clearly gone at the end of this contract. Damn @Nasher Beat me by a few seconds.....
praha 11,274 Posted October 3, 2016 Posted October 3, 2016 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.
Straight Sets Simon 23,113 Posted October 3, 2016 Posted October 3, 2016 Will Hogan by a free agent by the end of 2019?
DubDee 26,795 Posted October 3, 2016 Posted October 3, 2016 Well done Dees for giving him time but also not being pushovers. got it done by trade period. Thanks for staying Jesse!

Bimbo 943 Posted October 3, 2016 Posted October 3, 2016 At least now I can concentrate on my work without having to look at the Hogan contract thread 25 times a day
faultydet 7,623 Posted October 3, 2016 Posted October 3, 2016 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.

But it is the very defintion of a moot point
DemonLad5 1,642 Posted October 3, 2016 Posted October 3, 2016 Hogan will become a free agent at the end of either 2020 or 2021 I believe

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.
stevethemanjordan 6,952 Posted October 3, 2016 Posted October 3, 2016 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.

deeflog 679 Posted October 3, 2016 Posted October 3, 2016 A big boost for the club. You can't continue to have your good players walk out year after year.
