Give him some decent delivery and if he straightens up his kicking action, then 60 plus is not beyond him.

If we play the fast direct down the guts Goodwin style of footy, then that will give him every chance, combined with Jordan's Hawthorn pin point foot passing.

 The club should make Jack Watts his practical conjoined twin over the summer.  Jack can learn more of Jessie's combative one on one skills and competitive moungrul and Jack can teach Jessie set shots on goal and perhaps how to better manage his body language.

55.

Don't see him as a huge goal-kicking forward beyond the 50s. I think he's far too talented and has too high a football IQ to be restricted to kicking goals. 

48. 12 of them against St Kilda.

60+. He looks lean, committed and angry.

Technically that's how many he's kicked per game already in season 2017, since anything divided by zero is infinite!

Zero divided by zero is 1 as is evidenced by zero to the power zero being 1; something from nothing.

 

I think if we kick 100 points per game, 60 from forwards and 40 from the midfield, we will be in a really good place in 2017.  

That would mean on average:

Jesse 2

Watts 2

Garlett 2

Trac 2

Weid 2

and 6-7 from the spread of midfielders streaming forward.

will be fun to watch!

So Jesse gets 44 for the season.

Jesse 65

Jack 45

Weid 30

Garlett 40.

Kent 25

Pedo 25

Will be fun!

76 goals 39 pts for Jesse in 2017

Watts, Tracc, Lewis and Kent will be hitting him up every time

screw all this roaming up the ground talk! let him kick goals

I reckon Hogan has at least the same weaponry as Josh Kennedy who kicked 80 goals in each of the last two years.

In the, admittedly few, West Coast games I saw, Kennedy wasn't taking marks on the wing or in the back line. Hogan's goal kicking potential then does depend to a great extent on the role he will be expected to play.

The function y = 1/x. As x approaches 0 from the right, y approaches infinity.  Anyway infinity seems like a good number of goals for Hogan to kick...just play along.

You may need to get to training and have a word with Goody and Macca, during the drills he is hardly on the end of the chain, he is part of it, they are utilising his excellent field kicking skills on both sides

So effective goal kicking routine implemented over the preseason - like it.

IMHO, there were games this that Jessie's wayward kicking was a big contributor to our loss.  The Bulldogs game stands out to me.  Simply must kick most of the most gettable set shots on goal.

What you also have to remember is that the forward he 'most admires' is Riewoldt, hence why he has turned himself into an aerobic monster who can run all day

It's hard to put a goal expectation on a player because he is relying on players further up the field to be able to kick goals, but if we improve the way i think we should i reckon he'll kick 50 and average 8-10 makes a game. 

if his accuracy improves i could see him kicking 65 and being all australian this year, and if that happens we play finals
