We've done this dance before BB, you are the merchant banker of supporters and I'm more into the pathos of the club. In the movie the Castle I'd be speaking about vibe, and perhaps I'm simple (I feel simple, arguing for respect on an internet forum). 

I fully understand  the Vibe, but Mabo I see it all holistically. It's about a team , a club. 160 years young and 54 without a flag. Whatever's best to that end. In that light Jesse may or may not be part of it. In a fashion it's irrelevant. His life is his. I wish him well. Players, coaches , officials come and go.

But speaking of pathos, it's us Demon tragics that go the distance irrespective. Should it actually transpire, a trade, I'm sure Hogan will have no compunction donning another jumper. Nor do I. Footy is footy.

I still don't understand how discussion of a players merits and worth etc is disrespectful.l

Sam McClure reporting that Freo are coming hard for Hogan and putting all their eggs in the Hogan basket. We await.

Have also heard this, but it is hardly news. 

The difference this time is we arguably look better structurally without Hoges, and Weid is developing fast.

Will be an interesting off season.

Wow this is amazing, just how many eggs will they put in that basket? 

If its an unbelievable offer they would have to look at it very closely.

Probably the same eggs as every year, some choccie ones, some duck, some chicken. But sounds like this is the year they want him.

If Jesse wants to stay, he stays. if he wants to go, Im pretty confident he and the club would look after each other.

Something is definitely brewing here.

If its a godfather offer and as much as id like to refuse, you would have to take it.

Godfather offer would consist of, 2 early 1st rounders and a 2nd rounder.

Freo??  FFS.  What player with any brain at all would sign with that shower and play under Lyon?  No matter how much cash they shoved at you.

Why not Freo?  Not every footballer considers potential on-field success to be the one and only consideration when making their career choices.  Money, home, relationships also come into it, and for some would be more important than who the coach is and where the team is likely to finish.

I think the MFC should ask for Brayshaw and Cerra for Hogan which Freo would not entertain but if they do then our midfield becomes better in the long run and we could use Weid's as his replacement

Does Sam McClure ‘Believe’ or does he ‘Understand’ Fremantle are tabling an offer? 

I'd say he underbelieves.

One thing is for certain,  IF Hogan goes to Freo, at least he'll get favourable WA home ground umpiring for his constant free kick whinging

2 first rounders and a 2nd rounder? lol. that ain't happening dude. I'd take cerra and their first rounder and be happy with it too.

I understand that Melbourne supporters are disorientated by finals, but guys, we are actually playing finals. Can we stop talking about hypothetical and frankly idiotic trades, and actually enjoy FINALS?! 

You have plenty of time to talk trades after finals.

FINALS!!!!!

Surely Brayshaw has to be up there, on top of his clearance work he’s starting to kick the odd goal running into fwd 50.

Really interested to see how Frost’s form continues as we enter the finals. Obviously in no ones top 5 players but if he can build on his current purple patch he will find himself getting a game every week. I think we could play Lever, Oscar and Frost together.

Gus would definitely be right on the cusp.

Well Dr they should revoke your accreditation, i wouldn't even contemplate it then. Cerra? what has he done? and a first rounder, your kidding right.

Were talking about a Key position fwd here. Kicked 47 goals in 20 games and playing sore after the break

We gave up 2 1st round picks for Lever, Hogan is in his early 20's why wouldn't we ask for that.

I take Goodwin at face value and believe what he said On the Couch that Hogan is going nowhere.

So you are not of the opinion that lying is the second laungage of the AFL chook?

If a coach or FD tell me it is daytime or go outside and check.

I am not a great fan of threads such as these but really, Fremantle has nothing much to offer us and very little to offer to Jesse Hogan except home town environment and football oblivion at a club that's going nowhere.

I like the Goodwin comment that he's going nowhere.

I think Goodwin has a pretty good record for telling it as it is.

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to
