Anyway, best of luck Jesse! Hope to see you back fit and firing in round 1 next year.

Hogan 2018 season over with foot/ankle injury sustained during game on Sunday.(Navicular bone)

Maybe announced this arvo

To some posters, got to be careful what you wish for……

I will say this to all who have been critical of Jesse Hogan and wanted him traded or out  just incase you forgot his name, You have your wish. Live with it. I hope you feel ashamed with yourselves..

You play for weeks with sore knees, ankles whatever it was that was hampering him and it changes your biomechanics. You put more weight through your foot and you  crack the navicular.

It's not rocket science. It's the same thing happening over and over again.

Numerous posters on here have been saying for weeks lets give Hogan a week off and get him right. Unfortunately the idiots in charge didn't do it and now this is the result.

The Suns game provided that opportunity but wasn’t taken.

He's kicked 9 goals in the 7 games we've played against the top 9 sides, and 3 of those came in round 1.

Perhaps we may function better without him against the top sides. That's the only positive I can take out of this injury.

how do you know?

He rang 94201700 and pretended to be his GP?

 

Why are we shooting the messenger anyway?  The real issue is the club's history in dealing with below-knee issues.

Bloody Training Oval takes another victim.  It is like training on a road, footy boots aren't designed for training on rock hard surfaces, Asic's is the only boot which half resembles a running show.  Be interesting to see with the guys who have suffered foot injuries with Melbourne which boot manufacturer they wear.  Hogan is Adidas, no more Adidas wedge to soften the impact.

Maybe our midfielders can kick it to leading mid forwards this week, Jesse hasnt been the same since after the break,all the best for next year but this could be a blessing in disguise.

Get that foot better Jesse, have a good break and come back fitter and stronger in 2019.

Looks like the "Weed" may get his chance to shine yet in 2018.

There's no doubt how disappointing this is .. Jesse had put his best foot forward this year after a horror 2017. Feel for the guy.

So many experts on here. I’ve seen everything blamed in this thread from Misson to the club Doctor to Hogan himself to the training ground surface to not resting him against Gold Coast - all claimed as if indisputable fact. If I jumped up the ladder of inference in my job the way you lot do I’d have been sacked years ago.

Yep, and there is a fair chance that the same thing will happen with Gawn too given that Goodwin seems determined to run him into the ground.

If this is true and the medicos had half a clue it was a navicular or a potentially serious injury why was he allowed to play out the game? 

That's a pretty good question DZ. Maybe they assessed it could do no more damage. Given our run of foot injuries, they would surely be on edge and cautious at the first sign of discomfort, which Jesse said was Q2

FFS cannot take a trick! Poor bloke he's had so much crap to deal with the last 18 months. Hopefully it's not a result of continuing to play him after he injured it against Port (especially considering the history we have with foot injuries - Clark, Trengove, Viney, McDonald...)

Mastering the art of bafoonery. 

I posted several times in the “trade Hogan” thread yesterday  and I stand by my comments, mainly “you ultimately get judged by how you perform in the big games”.

For you to suggest some of us take any joy out of this news is just plain stupid. And no I don’t feel ashamed, I’ll leave that to those who either can’t or refuse to deal with reality.

Its happened, we process it, park it up and move on, we’ve still got two games to play and a potential finals campaign. I personally believe this news doesn’t mark the end of our season.

    TRAINING: Friday 28th February 2025

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo.
