no chance.

I tried. 

I can’t imagine the truth is worse than what I’ve made up in my own mind from watching his insta stories.

hmmm...Think we may have to get our heads back around him staying now by the feel of all of this.  IF it goes the way Chook is flagging that it may, then Jesse would be well chastened . More determined than ever.

Freo have cold feet. it's not no, but it's far from yes.

I know why, but I like my house and don't want to lose it for slander.

Slander of a Freo person or slander of Jesse?

In your opinion do you think  its a just part of negotiating tactics...or genuine cold feet

Yerp i agree. Why do all this 9f there was no interest.

Thats why i believe @Chook in Perth and thank him for his info.

I also know Jesses manager and himself would have discussed the potential trade a long time ago.

Thats different then coming to terms but it would have been planned a while ago

No they haven’t. They were always going to throw his ‘dicky foot’ up as a tactic to push price down. 

Someone at Freo is feeding Tom Browne bulltish the way Old McDonald spreads feed for chooks.

‘Touring the facilities’, saying Lobb is more of a priority ... all ploys to get Melbourne to cave on a the two first rounders demand.

All these tactics are in fact a measure of their keenness. It’s off the charts.

Sit tight Dees we will extract our price. Patience, patience catches the prey.

Probably stating the obvious here but if we can't get his long term commitment now then I'd be more than happy to trade him, granted we get a nice return package.

No need for a Hogan-WA fiasco throughout the entire 2019

Writing has been on the wall for years, comformation for me that he wants a trade done asap, was at BnF when he was seated very cosy next to Tomas Bugg and the other delisted players.

He's a weird cat Jesse, might be the best thing for him, never really embraced the footy club.

Loving the hard stance approach by Mahoney stating "we will be seeking the highest possible trade compensation ever"

Ideally Fremantle will [censored] Hogan around through trade week and make and unmake their minds about a trade or offer huge unders for him.

Hopefully this puts Hogan off-side with that shoddy organisation and he clears his mind of ridiculous thoughts of leaving.

Your'e safe from slander. Libel I'm not so sure.  But a question for the legal eagles on here.  Can you  be sued for saying "I won't say anything about X. He might sue me."

Yes, and “as it sits now we expect Jesse to be playing for Melbourne next season”.

Freo would’ve bristled at that.

Mahoney copped criticism from some last year for appearing too accommodating to Adelaide over Lever. Well, we are seeing his hard arse bonafides here in no uncertain terms. Great stuff.

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

We'll break down the Match SIM against North Melbourne and wrap up the preseason with insights into training and our latest recruits.

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo. The play start time was brought forward from the initial 11am bounce, due to the high temperatures forecast.  The match sim will consist of four 25-minute qu
