Which would suggest he is completely disgruntled and doesn't care where he goes (ie: its not the go home factor)

or its only about coin....

that doesn't feel accurate at all....

This is not so stupid, even though it could be completely wrong, at this stage.

First, GC could have raised it with us as a possible, if they can convince JH to come to them. We might have said we are happy to deal with them if they can convince JH.

As I said above, they have May and KK we are rumoured to be interested in and importantly picks 2 and 3, when the Lynch compo is awarded to them.

They have copped crap about losing players and if they were able to replace Lynch with JH, that would be huge for them.

They would get an ambassador payment allowance and possibly be able to offer him $1.5m  a year, over say 7 years, being $10.5 m. That would make JH a very rich boy and set him up for life.

GC are rumoured to be into Lukosius and Rozee for those picks, but they are young and will need time. We could afford to pick them or others and develop them. If we could convince say Tyson to go to GC and maybe with more picks and/or players swapped, we could be looking at 2 and 3 and May and KK. That would be a super trade and probably the biggest one ever done.

It would suit us and GC, as they would get a potential champion to replace a departing Captain or Captains, with other parts to the deal as well, probably including a couple of players who are ready to go for them.

Of course if JH only wants to go to Freo, well it was a nice thought anyway.

What could he be disgruntled over? All reports say he is happy at MFC

"All Reports" can be wrong.

Sorry I said 2 and 3 earlier in the post and then made a mistake saying 3 and 5 later in the post . I have changed it.

That's a really fair analysis @Redleg

AFL sanctioned of course...

The AFL would love this and would do what they could to help a love child who is being picked on.

The publicity alone of JH going to them would help get other players.

Hogan to Gold Coast? Is that what I read? 

Massive lols. 

 

Yes it does sound funny, but a poster suggested it was the latest news and I looked at a possible deal if it was true, which it probably isn't.

I think Hogan to GC isnt out of the realms of possibility, they could make him the highest paid player in the AFL if they really wanted him.

But i cant see any situation were we end up with picks 2 and 3, and may and KK. We would maybe get pick 3, may and kolo for hogan, 2019 1st round plus other picks. I don't think we could convince any of our players to go to GC i.e. tyson

I believe we give up hogan, Oliver and brayshaw

in return

sandilands, ballentyne and micky Johnson.

 

sadly a few years ago that was the case!

I heard we were going to throw in Ron Barassi and Mickey Mouse as steak knives...

The silence is deafening from all parties. It makes me think there really is a deal being negotiated. I hope we get a good deal, no a great deal.

Where is that coming from?

TBH I would accept it if we got good picks and players we want and they have both.

They could replace Lynch with a ready made potential champion and we could maybe persuade Tyson to go there as well to make the deal even more attractive for them. They will have picks 2 and 3. We are into May and KK. 

If JH is happy to go to GC then we know something else is behind the move

Also I think GC would get AFL help to get JH and he could get more money there than in Freo. He could become a very rich boy indeed and we could do a super trade.

I agree RL

There is a lot at play in this decision, for the Hogans...

He and his mother might want a fresh start, away from memories in the west?  Maybe, maybe not. 

Also the AFL would be very happy for some players of Jesse's ilk to support the GCS's... and the GCSuns will have plenty of Cap $pace... and they'll be hunting high and low for experienced players who can hit the ground running, for next season.  no kids.

This will make Freo ante-up, as well.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea
