Cleaning out the garage today and what did I find???

My long thought Lost MARX BROTHERS BOX SET all movies.

Trade week will feature all the above and more in Glorious Black and White!

I shot an elephant in my pyjamas.

How he got into my pyjamas I'll never know.

    I refuse to join any club that would have me as a member. Hang on I am a member.

    Surely we've gone too far down the track for this not to happen now.

     

    Indeed

    Imagine the embarrassment if this thread reaches 200 pages only for Jesse to recommit to the Demons

    I've never understood why people create multiple accounts. 

    A bit weird.

    No, it is weird. Everyone here is under a pseudonym in the first place.

    Why a second one? I can't use my secret identity for this post ...... I know! I'll use my *other* secret identity!

    Because they get banned.

    I liked RR, E25 and Stuie, but I find myself at odds with him/them on this particular occasion.

    Hogan hasn't matched Buddy's output yet, but he's only 23 and has much better output to date than many superstar forwards of the past. And as we all know, talls take much longer to hit their straps.

    I'd back Jesse to win a Coleman one day (at the very least), but at the same time, we have more pressing needs than one gun forward. With our defence being a pressing need, we have Tommy Mac who has stepped into the elite category and a developing Weideman. If we want to win a flag next year or the year after, IMO, we have to bite the bullet and fix our defence as a matter of priority over keeping Hogan.

    If Jesse wanted to stay, then we'd find another way of getting May, but as this opportunity has presented itself via Jesse's refusal to properly extend his contract, I'm happy to get the maximum compensation out of him - which we will get and even Drags agrees on this point.

    Funny what we take out of posts sometimes...

    This one ...that you like Stuie :)

    A guy on SEN, just said he spoke to Hogan’s best mate over in Perth and he told him Jesse is definitely coming home and it’s just a matter of this year or next.

    Take it for what it’s worth.

    Typical millennials!

    Changing work places at the drop of a hat.

    I would. Especially if I was Ross Lyon and staring down another season with Taberner, McCarthy and whichever other no-name hack he’s been running with in that forward line the past few seasons. They are under serious threat of a bottom four finish Freo, which would likely cost the coach his job. They are DESPERATE.

    Nowhere have I ever stated that Hogan is no good. He’s a talented young key forward with potential, however he does have his flaws. People on here talk like he’s guaranteed to be a multiple All-Australian , multiple Coleman Medal winning champion of the sport in years to come. He is being talked about like he’s the next Buddy Franklin. It’s bulltish. Living in Dee-nial land.

    At 23yo Buddy was winning a flag, kicking a ton and routinely wheeling away from 60m out and thumping sausage rolls through at post height.

    Jesse Hogan has achieved nothing in footy yet except winning a Rising Star award and showing plenty of promise, as well as exhibited some worrying defects. A clear eyed view show  that’s all he’s done. 

    Freo will pay up the extra top tenner for him  because they have no bloody choice. 

    I said on this forum once that he'll either be a solid forward-flanker that routinely kicks 40-50 goals a year, or he'll end up as Clive Waterhouse 2.0. The way people attacked me you'd think I'd killed their dog. Hogan both epitomizes and is the antithesis of Waterhouse's career so far.

    I think I've nailed it

    All this constant contract speculation with Jesse is obviously a ruse to get more hits on Demonland…… I'm on to you @Nasher @Demonland

    Demonland: Hey Jesse, it's Demonland. We'd love to get you on our podcast.

    JH: Look, I'm not much of a public speaker. Is there anything else I can do to help you out?

    They're contracted to drag out negotiations until 5 minutes before the deadline.

    No, and Jesse and his management have said they’re not interested in discussing one at this stage.

    I think that on the eve of the upcoming football week, Jesse and his manager have teased us with their silence quite enough. The cash registers seem to be the only point of interest - not MFC, not Freo - just mounting speculation to envisage from a point of advantage.

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

      The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
