Definitely a blow after his form this year but I think they showed they can cover him last year

    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.

    I think Heeney’s weight was too much for Jessie’s foot! Shame on you Pedo... lol

    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...)

    From memory, we functioned quite well without Hogan last year and we beat WCE over there without him.

    Massive blow for him. If anyone deserved to be at the business end of the season it was him. Shocking news.

    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.

    • REPORT: Geelong

      I was disappointed to hear Goody say at his post match presser after the team’s 39 point defeat against Geelong that "we're getting high quality entry, just poor execution" because Melbourne’s problems extend far beyond that after its 0 - 4 start to the 2025 football season. There are clearly problems with poor execution, some of which were evident well before the current season and were in play when the Demons met the Cats in early May last year and beat them in a near top-of-the-table clash that saw both sides sitting comfortably in the top four after round eight. Since that game, the Demons’ performances have been positively Third World with only five wins in 19 games with a no longer majestic midfield and a dysfunctional forward line that has become too easy for opposing coaches to counter. This is an area of their game that is currently being played out as if they were all completely panic-stricken.

    • PREGAME: Essendon

      Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

    • NON-MFC: Round 04

      Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

    • POSTGAME: Geelong

      The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0–4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.
