Farewell Jesse Hogan

Devil In Disguise
in Melbourne Demons

Was ok with Jesse staying or leaving, but the longer this drags out I find myself getting a bit irritable that he’s putting his fans through it (again)...

that said don’t know the full story, so prepare to park it till I hear more.

    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.

    Absolutely loved that.?????

    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.

    Only slander if not true !! ;)

    The truth will set you free

    There is another week of this to go aswell. Its a waiting game from both Freo and the Dees.

    Hogan is NOT a free agent next year. If he leaves next year it will be exactly the same circumstances as this year except he could potentially threaten to walk to the draft.

    Restricted or unrestricted or unsigned, who cares. We all know where the power lies.... agents and players

    So 198 pages and he still hasn’t actually made up his mind? I understand it’s not an easy decision and the fact it’s taking so long does give credence to the idea he enjoys living in Melbourne and being a Demon. But really this is dragging on. 

    And if he does decide to stay I Josh the club is saying to him stay long term, we don’t want to go through this circus again in 12 months time.

    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."

    <just doing what I can to get to 200> 

    actually one of the leading libel by internet cases in Oz involves a man formerly very much involved with the MFC

    The reality is, a top 10 pick and Steven May as a result of dealing Hogan is absolutely the return we should be receiving. I'd give 1 or 2 picks in the second round to make it happen too

    C’mon ProDee you’re smarter than that. Brinkmanship 101. Laughably obvious in truth.

    Gotta agree with Bruce Lee here.

    I don't know if Hogan is going or staying, don't know his state of mind, don't know how strong Freo's interest is, or anything much really...

    But Freo's tactics are like any bloke who's ever bought a second hand car. Tyres are a bit bald .... cams sound worn ... is that windscreen roadworthy? Yeah nah mate ... dunno ... if you come down a couple of grand I might bite ...

    They just want us to give a sign that we'll accept a lowball offer. It's up to us to say, well make up your mind quickly, mate. I've got another bloke coming at 12 and he sounds keen.

    Main difference is that in this case, the car gets to say if it wants to be sold.

    Great analogy MazerRack. Spot on. In fact I sold my Xtrail not long ago through Carsales and had to go through EXACTLY that rigamaroll.

    In the real estate game it’s called ‘undermining vendor confidence’.

    Ok what about.......

    Getting Jesse to agree to a new long term deal and putting good $$$$ On the table 

    AND if he says NO then hawking him around to all other clubs for best deal MFC?

    Rationale is if he is not a solution to the problem. he is part of the problem!

    Cant have it both ways Jesse either commit for long haul or we will act in best interests of MFC

    One year left on contract means little if he leaves next year !!

    Well the answer is, " how has that statement damaged someone's reputation"?

    I would think pushing it uphill to get to first base.

    What if they have already spoken to us and the Dockers and the rest is spin?

    He's staying. Considering about 20% of the online ads I'm now getting are for Hogan.com apparel, Jesse's career is obviously a giant marketing campaign for them.  They're not gonna cut it short now by putting him in Perth.

    They want us to panic, that's there whole tactic.

    I'm thinking Melbourne have told Hogan they will trade him if there is a deal reached with fremantle, but the Hogan camp doesn't want it made public in case an agreement can't be reached and he stays at melbourne.

    • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

      The Demons lacked some polish but showed a lot of heart and took it right up to the Bulldogs in an attempt to spoil their finals hopes ultimately going down by a goal at the MCG.
