I'm still just so pumped about this!!! 

The more we find out the more I love Jesse. He has clearly been very loyal in the face of big money offers and the lure of home. Also unlike a lot of other young players in this competition who seem to think you are entitled to success by jumping ship to a power club ASAP (cough Jaeger Cough). Jesse seems determined to drag us up the ladder. 

So pleased for him. Can't wait to chant his name in the stands next year as he kicks bag after bag!!

Ps: Welcome back rpfc

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 bl

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

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

You could possibly credibly claim that you introduced Aaron Vandenberg to Jason Taylor.

 

No, but I did play a game with him back in 2011 when he was fat.

No idea what to do with him so we put the best mid I have ever captained on the half back flank. He had 50 touches and won the game for us...

Jeez, thanks for the searching party thread... I got promoted earlier in the year at work and then I stupidly agreed to coach a reserves team up here in the AFL Canberra so my free time was minus hours... 

Getting back in the habit now with trade week looming...

Couldn't let Jesse have the limelight after his recent signing could you? Had to come in and steal some of his thunder didn't you? Some of us feared you were with our sweet prince Harambe, it's good to see you back,  good timing btw

I am the fat arthritically crippled member of the master race. Played as a 6 ft ruckman for Sunshine Under 16's. Slaughtered Aaron Sandilands in a Final once. In my dreams. But did kick 2 Majors...

I felt towards the end of the year a lot of Melbourne fans were turning on him a bit, I think as a defence mechanism to expectations that he would ditch us. Now that he's committed and essentially said he's in it for the long haul I hope those people give him every bit of support and credit as he could've taken some big money.

Fair call - bracing ourselves for the overwhelming disappointment and despair associated with his proposed departure was an entirely understandable and inevitable position for Dee's supporters to take.

Thankfully when we got the 'tap on the shoulder' this time, it was to celebrate him staying rather than a sign that the rogering was finished.

In fairness to those fans, a few of them are still recovering from the $cully burn.

Welcome back.

There was a thread dedicated to your absence but it got shut down.

Distinct and predictable lack of Flamingdees posting since Jesse re-signed. 

I bet he's sitting on a park bench somewhere listening to The Sound of Silence on his Walkman.

Or devoting his time to a suspect twitter account.

I recon Jesse was overawed last season.

For a young fella,having just won the rising star,and the expectations of him,and as the season wore on,

the possibility of the 8,the interviews,the cameras,the commentators,the eyes of the world on him.,no wonder 

he nearly tripped over his own feet when kicking for goal.

I really believe as he matures and a fresh season begins and the experience of the last, he will explode in 2017.

There is a distinct lack of 'america de cali' in this thread as well.  He's gone very, very quiet after he spent a few months potting the bloke and hoping he wouldn't re-sign.  Such a shame he isn't man enough to come back here and wish Jesse well after everything he said.

And admirable restraint from GNF who has resisted any 'i told you so' posts. He was right on the money with his posts about jessie's contract scenario, both his first one and the more recent ones flagging the complexities in the situation as a result of his Dads health issues. Good job GNF and thanks for the info. It won't convince the haters though.

That is the most hilariously cringeworthy music video you can see. And I've seen them all. 

How can you seriously release that. 

I like the whole Andre Agassi playing Magneto theme though.

It was reported yesterday that Jordan Lewis selected the Demons as his (only) club to approach and that Hogan was a major attraction (paraphrasing the story).

Even if the Lewis trade does not happen, that he has said that goes a long way to making us a 'destination' club.  It is reasonable to think that other players will think, '...gee if Lewis thinks that maybe we should have a closer look...'  Lewis did us a big big  favour nominating the Dees!  Put us on the radar, so to speak!

The value of Jesse's signature cannot be underestimated in making us a 'destination' club.  Mahoney alluded to that at the time of the announcement.

    BLOW THE SIREN by Meggs

    Fremantle hosted the Demons on a sunny 20-degree Saturdayafternoon winning the toss and electing to defend in the first quarter against the 3-goal breeze favouring the Parry Street end. There was method here, as this would give the comeback queens, the Dockers, last use of the breeze. The Melbourne Coach had promised an improved performance, and we did start better than previous weeks, winning the ball out of the middle, using the breeze advantage and connecting to the forwards.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.

    REMATCH by Meggs

    The Mighty Demons take on the confident Cats this Saturday night at the recently completed $319 million redeveloped GMHBA Stadium, with the bounce of the ball at 7:15pm. Our last game of 2023 was an agonisingly close 5-point semi-final loss to Geelong, and we look forward to Melbourne turning the tables this week. Practice match form was scratchy for both teams with the Demons losing practice matches to Carlton and Port Adelaide, while the Cats beat Collingwood but then lost to Essendo

    WELCOME 2024 by Meggs

    It’s been hard to miss the seismic global momentum happening in Women’s sport of late. The Matildas have been playing to record sell-out crowds across Australia and ‘Mary Fowler is God’ is chalked onto footpaths everywhere. WNBA basketball rookie sensation Caitlin Clark has almost single-handedly elevated her Indiana Fever team to unprecedented viewership, attendances and playoffs in the USA.   Our female Aussie Paris 2024 Olympians won 13 out of Australia’s all-time record 18 gol
