I have just been told Hogan and his manager met with Fremantle last week and are having another meeting this week.       I hope this is incorrect but it's what I have been told.

The guy missed a year with a bad back and we paid him

He had the year from hell this year and we have supported and paid him.

He apparently loves the club and the players.

He just signed a new contract last year and has two years to go.

Why would he meet Freo when he is contracted and a required player?

I don't believe it.

Petracca did his ACL. Hogan had a dodgy back.

Cannot possibly be true as Hogan has been overseas in Bali with Harmes, Gawn and a few other MFC players, as evidenced by multiple social media updates.

Gawn is already back and working in a coffee shop, can't remember which one.

Max and Harmes were on the footy show last Thursday night, I hope Jesse didn't do the Perth drop-off.

Is it over yet? We were so close to finals this year but the negativity around thread is surprising. 

Watts, is gone, that's ok, he isn't the player we wanted him to be. 

Hoges, I would be dumbfounded if he goes and strongly doubt he will.

Lever, depending on spend and output (as with all trades) will be a good get.

Outside of that the world is our oyster.

@Roost It who has excellent mail posted that Hogan had been told by the club he was not on the 'untradeable list' and could go it they got a good price ie if another club paid us overs+. 

He then posted that there were only six (yes 6!) players on that list.  (pages 105 and 106 of the Lever thread).  I get the 'any player is tradeable theory' but...

That short list doesn't exactly make a player feel really, really wanted so I am at the point where I don't blame any of our players for looking around.  And I believe that clubs are talking to Hogan altho I doubt he would go.

Nothing would surprise me anymore.

He allegedly turned us down a couple of seasons ago. Sounds like the Shuey was on the other foot..

From the club... "hogan is not going anywhere"

but, as others have said here, anyone is tradable for the right price - would have to be a massive win for us

A little bit dramatic but i agree with you.

In saying that untradable and traded for the right price are very similar.

What i think @Roost It was saying is you're not going to trade Gawn for tippet as an example, but if you got offered say Lobb and Sheil you'd look at it. 

It's not likely but if an amazing offer came along. It's sensible is all I'm trying to say.

The only other club that I can think of that made at least as many mistakes as we did was......Richmond.

Good on him - have a blast Jesse and come breathing fire and brimstone round 1 next year

    TRAINING: Friday 22nd November 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea
