Realistically managing the extremes of both Hogan untapped potential and Lewis experienced performance and everything in between is the answer. 

Bur what a great position to be in for a change and progress since PJ seems reassuring

I picked Hogan's re-signing as I would most likely have walked away from the game if he left.  Melodramatic?  Most probably, but it would be fair to say that if he didn't, someone like Lewis may not have come to us, and the number of members would've taken a hit as I wouldn't have re-signed myself.

Option 2 might not have occurred without option1 but option 1 might not have occurred if the club had not shown the maturity and competence that it did.

Jesse is not a fool - there is more upside here than in the west and a greater chance of success thanks to the club's improvement under PJ and JM.

I took a while to pick my response but I looked at it from purely "My own" opinion and not from the greater club/public as a whole...

Thus I chose Option 2 as I was already personally confident that Jesse would sign so for ME the most important aspect of this post season has been the signing (upon request) of Jordan Lewis...

This is huge in the scheme of things...

Just people wait until NEXT year's post season... We will go BANG! and recruit a genuine gun of the competition who will see that the possibility of bringing this great club back to the top is an opportunity one doesn't want to miss being involved in...

The days of good list management and quality player development are upon us my friends!

In Melbourne I trust :cool:

None of the above, just doing all the business with a minimum of fuss, Josh Mahoney being the mouthpiece, and evervbody in and out being treated with respect, that will make us a destination club, along with the onfield success 

Could be argued that a) it's yet to fully play out and b) set in motion long ago; but the realitively seamless transition to Goody is a big part of that getting on with things with a minimum of fuss.

Full cread to PJ and Roos.

OTHER :    Not really caring about the draft for the first time in a long long while

Saty and Reverend have some interesting points.. Good to retain Hogan but we would still be on track had we not ( but better to have )

Its where we find ourselves currently holistically for mine, and thats the sum of ALL parts.

Very close to my thoughts, but I would say the assurance and competence the club showed.  We didn't leak like so many clubs (and like we used to).  We had clear goals which we achieved with a minimum of fuss.  When the opportunity arose we got the Lewis deal done with no fuss, quickly and cleanly.  The Hogan signing is a symptom of the overall improvement in the club.

I needed a new poll for the homepage. This is the best I could come up with. It's probably a choice between the first two. Feel free to discuss.

Easy, the continuation of recruiting contested ball tough types of footballers.  It is uniting all around the club in solidarity. 

The lessons aren't lost on these real footy people, who are transforming this club back into respect, with a fire & brimstone foundation.  You can see all falling back into line, with this original footy philosophy.

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last

    LIFE SUPPORT by Whispering Jack

    With Melbourne’s season hanging on a thread, Saturday night’s game against North Melbourne unfolded like a scene in a hospital emergency department.  The patient presented to the ward in a bad way. Doctors and nurses pumped life-saving medication into his body and, in the ensuing half hour, he responded with blood returning to his cheeks as he stirred back to life. After a slight relapse, the nurses pumped further medication into the bloodstream and the prognosis started looking good as the
