Wow, you go off the Internet for an hour... But absolutely brilliant news!

It might be an obvious statement to make, but I'll be the first to predict that Jesse is going to have an absolute belter of a 2017 season. Getting this contract done before the start of next year will surely remove a lot of stress from Jesse's mind. 

For those who missed his interview on trade radio (myself included), Josh Mahoney will be on SEN at 10:25

I went and had a shower once, and when I came back, Paul Roos was our coach.

Mahoney on SEN this morning, (paraphrasing):

  • Club confident Jesse would want to stay, despite recent speculation
  • No ultimatum ever put to Jesse
  • Think Hogan and Weideman can be a lynch pin for us for years to come
  • Hogan, in his exit interview, was very disappointed with his last 5 weeks and keen to have a big 2017

Good to see all the rubbish written about an 'ultimatum' put to bed!

Oh no My prediction was wrong.

I am slipping that is the second time I have been wrong in the last 20 years.

Must be the ageing process.

So at least OD's guts didn't have to hold out till May. Happy Days all round!

Club has managed this superbly. For this to not get out, given the level of speculation, is remarkable.

I've had a lot of mail about Hogan in the last month. but it was wildly conflicting and not worth sharing, other than the 5 years or eff off now yarn. Even that I only posted because the source was impeccable.

Clearly he signed for less time than what was on the table. But signs of a rock solid club not sweating under the spotlight.

One of the very few posters with insider info that I trust.

Keep posting C.I.P

This management team we have is quite something now, isn't it?

Compare this to how theseThings were handled in a previous administration and it is like day and night.

Ever day I get more impressed with the way our club is now being run.

I'll just add

  • Mahoney said we traded future draft picks last season because we wanted Weideman
  • Don't expect us to be active this trade period (Had previously mentioned helping Dunn get a trade and obtaining Hibberd)

Yea totally agree. So much of this is about "kultcha". Says a lot that he wanted to stay despite the lure of home. We're really going to be reflecting on Paul Roos' legacy a lot in the future. Let that reflection start with signings like this

Heard someone on SEN yesterday say they had spoken to Hogan's old man and there was no family "pull factor". They're very happy with Melbourne.

So he has signed a two yr extension on his current contract which will take him up to 2019 with his current term included. 

So that gives us one season not to talk about his next contract extension!

Thats gunna be fun when it all starts again!

in all seriousness congrats to Jesse and the MFC.

2 year deal is perfect for both parties. It gives the dees a chance to open up our premiership window, then gives Jesse the choice of money v success in 2 years time. We don't overpay Jesse in the meantime, and Jesse gets to see if the club can deliver a chance to play finals footy before making his next decision. 

Great news!!!

2019 - just right!

Either we're primed for a flag - in which case he'll stay ....... or we're not in contention - in which case we'll need to push the reset button ..... by going forward without him.

Just about got all the bases covered - unless of course we've won it already!

No more dreaming Dees - just get out there - and do it!!

I am happy to hear he has signed and committed. While I am not as confident in Hogan becoming a superstar as others on Demonland, he is still a very good player and could potentially end up being a great one. This needed to happen prior to trade week IMO given his trade value and contract size, so it is a bit of a relief it is all over.

Welcome to the Melbourne Football Club, Jesse Hogan. Despite all the gushing from many a fellow Demonlander , and that's their prerogative, this for mine is the first real sign he has and will be a Melbourne player let alone a possibly great Melbourne player. This is my opinion granted but up til he signed he had not bought in. Now he has, it would seem and thats a Good win for the Dees.

As I suspected, something had to give before friday. It has and it a very hearty sign for things to come

 

go you good club.

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an

    ALAS SPRINGS by Whispering Jack

    I got the word on Saturday from someone who knows someone inside the Fremantle camp that the Dockers were pumped and supremely confident about getting the W the next day against Melbourne at TIO Traeger Park in the red heart of the country. I was informed that the Dockers were extremely confident for a number of reasons. They had beaten the Demons on their home territory at the MCG at their last two meetings so they didn’t see beating them at Alice Springs as a problem. They belie

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,
