It is unfortunate he does seem immature relative to other young players (eg CO). It can't help his game and the sooner he stops reacting that way the better since he is pretty good already.

He never missed a game for being a drama queen Expand I have no desire to defend the earlier poster who labelled him a drama queen, but I re-read his post and it doesn't directly imply he was ever dropped or should be dropped because of that. If he did mean that, then I'd disagree with him and say his current immature behaviour is minor and nowhere near a level to justify that.
Cassiew 1,903 Posted February 15, 2018 Posted February 15, 2018 It said who knows how many games he’ll play. What else could he mean?
tiers 2,883 Posted February 15, 2018 Posted February 15, 2018 Has anyone considered that Jesse's responses are not a sign of petulance but of disappointment in himself? Classic petulant behavior includes failing to maintain interest in the contest. I have never observed Jesse show disinterest or lack of commitment to any contest. It should be no surprise that when he has to compete against 2 and 3 opponents for poorly delivered and placed balls that he expresses his disappointment. I would be disappointed too! He has shown the potential to lead us to success. Allow him to develop without the added burden of trivial criticism from those who should be his greatest supporters.
Moonshadow 17,678 Posted February 15, 2018 Posted February 15, 2018 FFS! Get over your petty Jesse squabbling Given the obstacles Jesse's had, be grateful a player of his ilk wants to play for us. Short memories.

It was obviously (well, to blind Freddy and his dog at least) referring to the fact that Hogan’s investment in a game has in the past dropped off rather severely when things weren’t going his way in a game. Hopefully he won’t, but if he does continue to do that, it’s not much of a stretch to see him being disciplined, which could include relegation to Casey; it certainly wouldn’t be the first time that has happened to a player. And that behavior is something that he was being criticised for on here, well before his personal issues came to light and had him taking time out from the club.

He has shown the potential to lead us to success. Allow him to develop without the added burden of trivial criticism from those who should be his greatest supporters. Expand Surely you have seen him not continuing in a contest because he has stopped to whinge to the umpire? That's the main thing I'd like him to stamp out. As for showing displeasure with bad delivery, he is not alone in the AFL for that, so I don't particularly criticise him for that. But in my view it never sends a good team message. The player doing the bad delivery usually knows it was bad. What is this forum for but for trivial criticisms? What we say here is not going to effect his development. I don't think the personal trials he has had to endure means as a player he should be immune from discussion here. We all hope he will turn into to an AA++ player and stay at the Demons.
Ethan Tremblay 31,406 Posted February 16, 2018 Posted February 16, 2018 Last year was undoubtedly a tough one for Jesse, I can’t be bothered with the quibbling over his ‘body language’. He looks to be in ripping shape, can’t wait to see him this season particularly with some time up the ground and in the midfield. With Petracca and Oliver taking a bit of the limelight and a very disrupted 2017, I think we’ve forgotten just how good this Hogan kid is.

Expand Hogan along with most of the key young players on our list are at this stage all potential and not a lot of delivery. Hopefully this is the year that they all arrive on the big stage.

Expand Must be a different Hogan to the rising star winner and a player who has dominated a number of games that I’ve seen. Usually has to get the ball for himself rather than via clean passes from upfield! Fit and ready to fire, he will have a big year in tandem with TMac.
Matt Demon 1,597 Posted February 16, 2018 Posted February 16, 2018 Just heard Tyson saying to the trainer he's tweaked his right calf, did a couple of run throughs & went inside.
Whispering_Jack 31,382 Posted February 16, 2018 Posted February 16, 2018 I’m down at Casey Fields and there’s a special atmosphere down here ... almost as if it was a continuation of last night’s action. There’s music blaring as the boys go through their drills. There are no food trucks but you can smell the hot dogs being sold by the South East Demons. They’re doing match simulation in front of me and Hoges (matched up on Oscar) kicked the first goal and then our marked Oscar, then hit the post. Clarry’s Looking good - he just hit Mitch Hannan on the chest for a goal. There’s a small rehab group at the sidelines - Jack Viney and Sam Weideman who are both moving well. Jack looks like a mallee bull. They’ve been joined by Joel Smith and Jeff Garrlett who earlier were involved in the training drills. Earlier Dom Tyson was with the rehab group but he appeared to be in a bit of discomfort.
