2 extra years is good for the club. It will then know just how good he is, rather than be paying long, big contract, largely on promise.

Good point.

Also gives us 2 extra years to plan for what will inevitably be a mountainous offer from other clubs when he becomes RFA

Ball is back in our court. Kudos again to  the MFC for the way we played this.

 

Hey @TGR, what do you think of this?

 

Amazing stuff, made my hour long drive into work so much better when I heard this.

I wonder if AFL Trade Whisperer made it to 4K followers on twitter?

 

Wonderful news, I really couldn't see a way we could have "won" if he'd left...Goody has the best Melbourne list to work with in a long time that's for sure!


In the Fairfax papers trade article today:

"Convincing Jesse Hogan to open negotiations on extending his contract beyond the end of next year is the biggest priority.

Michael Gleeson"

I couldn't agree more.  Great move by Jesse and the club unless there was a Dangerfield type player up for grabs in the trade period, retaining Jesse is so much better than anything elese on offer. 

Very, very good news. A five year deal would have been perfect, but hopefully the club is entrenched in the top 8 by the end of three years.

[censored] yeah!!! Hopefully this helps put a nail in the coffin of MFCSS. We're on the right track and have a good group of guys to build the club around. We hung on to Tyson, McDonald and Hogan. The future is bright, the future is now.

Jesse will have a press conference in Perth @ 4.30 EST.  Looking forward to hearing him declare himself a Demon!

Now, the club can really get its list management strategy going.  Just a couple more key players to lock down.

Go Dees!!

Yes, even if we got an early first round pick, what's the value in that if you can not retain them once they actually become dominant players, rather than just players with high potential.  Incubating players for other clubs like we did with Scott Thompson and $cully is a no returns game.

I just hope we can lock in the gun group of young mids we have coming through like Pratracca, Brayshaw, Oliver, Hunt and Co when it comes time.

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

Big well done to all MFC staff involved in making this happen!

Now to break that premierships drought! Where's the blueprints we stole from the dogs again.....

Who were the media who said he would go?

Very sensible decision on his part. With an uncertain family situation he would not have wanted to commit for too long. So everyone a winner here. It suggests to me he really wants to be with the club and be part of building the team.

Well done, now for that kicking rehab.

 


What a joyful morning it's been for Freo and West Coast supporters. Hogan signs with us and now Rory Lobb signs with the Giants.

Freo's next target was Rory Lobb who just announced a two year extension. Surely Hogan and Lobb announcing extensions on the same day was prearranged to inflict pain on Fremantle. Sometimes it's a wonderful thing working in Fremantle.

Bernie is crying tears of joy!


Is purple now saying he will be gone in 2020?

I'm not claiming it. Someone posted it last night and pointed it out

 

Great to have Jesse sign on!

A lot of credit to Josh Mahoney once again; he has this list humming along very, very nicely.

  • REPORT: St. Kilda

    One of the big stories of the AFL off-season was the spending spree of Melbourne’s Round 1 opponent, St Kilda. They splashed out heavily, first to retain Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera - the hero of last year’s epic come-from-behind miracle victory -turning him into a $2 million man. They then effectively took out an expensive overdraft to recruit a string of expensive players from other clubs. It was a risky investment strategy and, although it’s still early days, it certainly failed to pay off in Sunday’s season opener, with much of the glitter turning to fool’s gold.
