Some big marks taken last night on the end of some ordinary disposal from both teams due to the pressure. Didn’t see any supporters blaming their respective midfielders.

Well the Tiger supporters should be blaming their mids.

    I have said previously the threat isn't Freo it's Meth Coast. Jesse's contract ends at a time which is perfect for them Kennedy will be done Le cras will be done and Natanui's wage will be significantly lower.

    I hate them but they are well run and any leaks from them are deliberate 

    yep and we would get pick 20 or thereabouts in return. Even if we keep him it would be overs from a dollar perspective.

    Oh so blind are those that do not see.

    Sign him or trade him this year.

    Ship him out - we clearly don’t need talent like his judging by the first half at Optus.

    Yeah, who needs a talented forward who could turn out to be the next Josh Kennedy.

    The one worry I have with Jesse is the feeling that he's going to be the super talented guy who breaks down every year and never lives up to his potential because of the never-ending rehab. I would love to know what our medical staff think about him.  It's just possible that two top ten picks could turn into a bargain for him.

    Or someone who might drop his head, play for frees, half hearted second efforts and go sookilala if it's not his day.

    No he doesn't do that all the time...but does often enough for some to take notice 

    Anyone thinking he was the difference yesterday is kidding themselves.

    We could have had wayne carey and gary ablett snr in out forward line yesterday and still would have got pantsed. If the team is prone to shirking the hard stuff your forwards will never be the difference makers.

    Hogan would have kicked 50 this year - he is a player who kicks goals each week. Tom Macdonald and Weiderman are not players who kick goals each week.

    Tom McDonald kicked 53 goals this year you clown.

    Before yesterday, McDonald kicked at least one goal in every game he played this year.

    Saying Hogan should be traded is stupid when clearly he is our best forward option by a mile. Not say Tom Mac isnt good or Weiderman wont be good... nust pointing out those saying we should trade him obviously dont look at the statistics.

    He wouldn't have been the difference clearly, but he played better yesterday than our 2 key forwards and for that matter our 2 key backs and he wasn't even on the ground.

    this is an embarassing comment. josh kennedy is a coleman medalist that excels in defensive pressure. Hogan is one of the worst in the comp for his pressure. If tom mcdonald couldn't have an impact in yesterdays game, no chance hogan wouldve gone near it.

    Jesse Hogan 152 goals in his first 4 years in 71 games.

    Josh Kennedy 90 goals in his first 5 years in the AFL in 67 games. 

    Jesse averaged 50% more disposals in those games as well.

    I think you are the one that needs to feel really embarrassed. Also I was rubbishing the get rid of Hogan thread. I never said he would have made a difference yesterday, so don't change the meaning of my post.

    I said he could be our Josh Kennedy and people want to get rid of him. He is on better track than Josh was at the same stage.

    Round, opponent, score, disposals, marks

    Round 1 :  Geelong 3.0, 16 & 3

    Round 2 : Brisbane 5.1, 22 & 9

    Round 3 : North 1.2, 26 & 7

    Round 4 : HAWKS 1.1, 24 & 3

    Round 5 : TIGERS 2.2, 22 & 9

    Round 6 : Bombers 2.1, 8 & 5

    Round 7 : St.Kilda 3.1, 25 & 7

    Round 8 : Suns 3.0, 22 & 8

    Round 9 : Carlton 1.1, 15 & 6

    Round 10 : Crows 5.0, 20 & 11

    Round 11: Bulldogs 5.1, 19 & 10

    Its at this point here people were saying he’s in AA form. 10 goals 1 from his last 2 games with a 31 for the year so far. The stage was set for something special on QB, and we got this....

    Round 12 : PIES 0.1, 17 & 3

    Round 13 : Bye

    No need to panic it was just a one off, or was it....

    Round 14 : PORT 0.1, 12 & 2

    Round 15 : Saints 3.2, 15 & 4

    Round 16 : Freo 2.3 19 & 7

    Round 17 : Bulldogs 4.1, 18 & 9

    More goals against weaker clubs and all is forgotten again. Hold on....

    Round 18 : GEELONG 1.1, 14 & 4

    Rd 19 : Crows 1.0, 10 & 4

    After yesterday’ loss many are now saying he’s been playing injured for weeks, so to help him recover the gets him to line up against the hapless Suns.

    Round 20 : Suns 4.1, 22 & 10

    Not bad for someone playing injured. But then again as some have already alluded to, a lot of players are carrying injuries this time of year, it all depends on whether or not it suits your narrative.

    Round 21 : SWANS  1.3, 19 & 4

    The games where the opponents names are in capitals are games where he needed to deliver. You could go into it more and look at how many of those behinds were easy misses, or like yesterday his disposal efficiency which was yesterday quite low. We are yet to play the Giants or the Eagles but looking at that the games against the other 5 top 8 sides and Geelong who are currently 9th there is a clear trend, and that is he goes missing in big games. Again, he’s not the player many thought he was going to become. 

    The club should be open to trading him but we don’t need more kids, line up and a ready made player and make it a three way trade.

     

     

     

     

     

     

    Just reposting this in the hope some others might get some context on Hogan, his goals for the year and his inability this year to influence certain games.

    you can show me all the stats in the world. im sure you couldve shown similar stats to prove watts was decent.

    at the end of the day he offers 0 forward pressure. 0! he is not a great kick for goal and is mentally weak. no surprise he was no loss in finals and he is only best 22 if he fixes his attitude.

    Thankyou...its valuable context.

    I dont think anyone really thinks the lad isnt talented. It's a very one sided extrapolation to say he'll be as good as Kennedy.

    That said it would not surprise me if WCE made a play for him

    People need to quote posters correctly. I said he COULD  become our Kennedy not that he is.

    I’ve shown you he has kicked 60 more goals in the same games as Kennedy and you dismiss it as just a stat. Then you say  stats could show Watts was decent. Unbelievable.

    Tom McDonald. 20 games for 47 tackles.

    Jesse Hogan. 20 games for 41 tackles.

    Those 6 extra tackles must have been absolute bone crushers.

    • NON-MFC: Round 09

      Round 9 kicks off out west with the Dockers hosting a Collingwood side resting several stars. Fremantle need to make a statement on their home deck after some disappointing form on the road, while the Magpies will be keen to maintain their Top 2 position. Friday night sees a must-win clash between two sides desperate to stay in touch with the eight. St Kilda have shown glimpses while Carlton are clinging to relevance after a flat start to the season. Saturday’s twilight game at Marvel pits the Bombers against a struggling Sydney outfit. Essendon can’t afford another close match against a lower-ranked side, while the Swans risk sliding down the ladder even further. Up in Darwin, the fourth-placed Suns will look to extend their stay in the top four. The Bulldogs have hit their stride with three big wins on the trot and will be very keen to consolidate on their momentum. The always fiery Showdown looms as pivotal for both clubs. Adelaide are eyeing a spot in the Top 4 with a win, while Port Adelaide’s season could slip away if they drop another game and fall further behind the pack. Sunday begins with a yawn fest between Richmond and West Coast. The Tigers need to bank the points to stay clear of the bottom two, while the Eagles are still chasing their first win of the year. The Giants face one of the league’s toughest road trips as they travel to GMHBA Stadium to face the Cats. With GWS at risk of a third straight loss, Geelong will be eager to consolidate their position inside the eight and start their climb up the ladder. The round wraps up with the top-of-the-table Lions heading to Ninja Stadium to take on the second-last Roos. The Lions should easily take care of the struggling Roos who might be powerless against the best in the comp. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • PREVIEW: Hawthorn

      Melbourne and Hawthorn who face off against each other this week have more in common than having once almost merged and about to wear a blue jumper with a red v triangle and an embroidered picture of a bird on the front. They also share the MCG as their main home ground, their supporters are associated with the leafy suburbs of Melbourne and in recent times, James Frawley graced the colours of both teams. Even more recently, both have bounced back from disastrous five game losing streaks to start off a season. Of course, the Hawks turned their bounce into a successful leap from the bottom of the ladder into a finals appearance, making it to the semifinals in 2024 and this year, they’re riding high in third place on the AFL table. The Demons are just three games into their 2025 bounce back, and are yet to climb their way out of the bottom four although they are sitting a game and percentage out of the top eight. However, with the current sportsbet odds of $3.90 to win this week’s encounter, it seems a forlorn hope that their upward progression will continue much longer.

    • REPORT: West Coast

      On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.
