On the AFL site's article Mahoney says something about jesse commiting with an asterix. Whats that about?

 

"It is one of the earlier questions that a potential player asks is, 'What does your list look like in the next few years?'" Mahoney said.

"We've been able to put Jesse Hogan's name there – maybe with an asterisk – but now we can put it there and put it alongside Jack Viney, Clayton Oliver, Angus Brayshaw, Dom Tyson, Tom McDonald, Christian Petracca

He jut meant that prior to today when telling potential players who was on our list, he listed Hogan but had to indicate it was possible he wouldn't be, ie. the fine print

Asterisk was because he was only signed on for 1 more year, and there was speculation he was looking to leave.

Not a problem now.

Thank God, or Goodeee?

Right now the next important move is to get him a personal kicking coach / mentor and get rid of that stttutttterrring run up.

Excellent news to wake up to

Thanks Jesse

Take a holiday then practise your kicking so you become deadly in front of goal...

If the Bulldog's had their handball club, we should start a goal kicking club.

Can be lead by Jack Watts, with Christian Salem as VC.  If all of our players could kick for goal like those two boys, then our conversion will smell like pure roses.

I agree, goalkicking seems to be an afterthought these day, it makes no sense, when scoring is the ultimate purpose of the game!

Compulsory: every player takes 100 shots at goal before and after training, some sort of internal penalty if they miss too many of those, it's a skill that doesn't get nearly enough attention in my opinion.

1) Here is Jesse's press conference in Perth today:

Don't think there are any doubts about wanting to be in Melbourne the city and Melbourne the club!

2) And here is a gif from the club website announcing his contract extension via twitter this morning:

I really liked his honesty in that interview.  Happily admitted that, at one stage, he was 50/50 about where he wanted to play his footy which is totally understandable.  He came over to Melbourne at 17 and I'm sure the lure to be home with family and friends would be strong.  However, it seems he has a great relationship with Goody and McCartney and we've created a great environment to play football in.  In the end it seems that the club has put all the right things in place and that made his decision much, much easier.

Well done to the club and it's bloody super to have Jesse on board for at least another 3 years!

You have an internal comp. The goal kicking ladder. Every week, every player takes X shots on goal. Highest score wins. Lowest score suffers a penalty, to be decided by rest of team. Shout the others a meal, or some such.

You can do it in groups too. Groups of 4. Highest/lowest within the group, same deal. Groups can challenge other groups to see which is king of the mountain. Winners get a prize, losers a penalty.

Put something on the line, that means something to the players, but also helps with the cameraderie.

Footy clubs should ask pro golfers for ideas on how to practise goal kicking. Eg you take 10 shots from various set angles/distances. You can't leave training until you have dobbed all 10 in a row. If you miss one, you start again.

It's pretty funny that people think footy clubs don't already do stuff like this.

It's funny how he was 50/50 about staying when he was playing well, yet despite his form dropping off later in the season, he decided to stay.

It seems that his relationship with Goodwin was a big factor in his decision.

    Once again the club’s top goal scorer but he had a few uncharacteristic flat spots during the season and the club will be looking for much better from him in 2025.

    After sustaining a torn ACL in the final match of the 2023 season Jake added a bit to the attack late in the 2024 season upon his return. He has re-signed on to the Demons for 1 more season in 2025. Date of Birth: 12 August 1991 Height: 186cm Games MFC 2024: 8 Career Total: 229 Goals MFC 2024: 8 Career Total: 188

    2024 Player Reviews: #3 Christian Salem

    The luckless Salem suffered a hamstring injury against the Lions early in the season and, after missing a number of games, he was never at his best. He was also inconvenienced by minor niggles later in the season. This was a blow for the club that sorely needed him to fill gaps in the midfield at times as well as to do his best work in defence.

    The move of “Disco” to a key forward post looks like bearing fruit. Turner has good hands, moves well and appears to be learning the forward craft well. Will be an interesting watch in 2025.

    The Demon’s key defender and backline leader had his share of injuries and niggles throughout the season which prevented him from performing at his peak.  Date of Birth: 5 March 1996 Height: 195cm Games MFC 2024: 18 Career Total: 178 Goals MFC 2024: 1 Career Total: 5

    2024 Player Reviews: #13 Clayton Oliver

    Lack of preparation after a problematic preseason prevented Oliver from reaching the high standards set before last year’s hamstring woes. He carried injury right through the back half of the season and was controversially involved in a potential move during the trade period that was ultimately shut down by the club.

    BLOODY BLUES by Meggs

    The conclusion to Narrm’s home and away season was the inevitable let down by the bloody Blues  who meekly capitulated to the Bombers.   The 2024 season fixture handicapped the Demons chances from the get-go with Port Adelaide, Brisbane and Essendon advantaged with enough gimme games to ensure a tough road to the finals, especially after a slew of early season injuries to star players cost wins and percentage.     As we strode confidently through the gates of Prin

    Melbourne’s most important player who dominated the first half of the season until his untimely injury in the Kings Birthday clash put an end to his season. At the time, he was on his way to many personal honours and the club in strong finals contention. When the season did end for Melbourne and Petracca was slowly recovering, he was engulfed in controversy about a possible move of clubs amid claims about his treatment by the club in the immediate aftermath of his injury.
