End of last year he was away with Gawn, Harmes etc

Allegations from that trip went awfully quiet.

 

That was my first thought when I asked Chook who he was worried about slandering.

Well, if I am picking up what @Chook in Perth is putting down, then my questions around why the club is so ready to move on from Hogan have been answered...

Yes, some can read the tea leaves.

So no further news today, and Jesse is reportedly enjoying himself in Bali. Either it's been done behind closed doors out of the public eye, or he's stuffing both clubs around. The fact he toured Freo's facilities shows his lack of commitment to us, and for that reason I think it's best we try to move him on and get the best deal possible.

Where did they go?

Everybody relax.

When Ethan feels like revealing the truth he will.

Until then it's all speculation.

I don’t think posters can handle the truth.

Don't start telling them this Red....they all think the circus is real. Well it is real...it's a real circus lol

It's a bit like impromptu theatre. Most has already been sorted or situated....just needs the paperwork ;)

Most people enjoy the illusion though.

Don’t think that’s quite accurate, B’bub.

There’s circus and theatre but a very real negotiation underway. Still an outside possibility Hogan stays. Mahoney isn’t bluffing.

The foot issue thing is clearly bogus.

Whatever turns you on Terry. Just don't spew on them.

No shortage of irony in a few prominent posters claiming to now by ‘reading the tea leaves’ either having no clue that this was going to happen a few weeks ago, or adamant that it would never happen while they remained above ground. 

Talk about run with the foxes and hunt with the hounds! 

All fun though. Human nature to want to come out crowing.  

Hoges went to Bali last year with Maxy, Kent and Harmes... That photo is an oldie from a pre season camp if i'm correct.

The double century what an innings


I'm fairly concerned about Frost getting badly sunburnt.

It could  make him permanently deaf.

I hope so we need a decision from Hoges pronto!

Summary of the points re Hogan:

  • Dockers cooling partly because of Lobb's arrival and partly the Demons are demanding two early first-round picks.
  • the spearhead's recovery from a navicular injury among the pressing issues it has to address.
  • There is still a chance Hogan could remain at Melbourne, but it appears far more likely he will be in the Dockers' purple and white next season.
  • Hogan is unlikely to officially request a trade to Fremantle in the next day or so, but it's understood progress is being made behind the scenes that is inching him closer to that point.
  • But, as they consider such a blockbuster trade, the Dockers won't be rushed. 

My read is he will be a Docker next year but we wait a few days to hear an official trade request.

 

As an aside, in case anyone missed it @Mach5reported in the AVB thread that we may trade him and 2nd/3rd round picks to Sydney for pick 12.   Could come in very handy in a trade to GCS so we can break the nexus between the Hogan and May deal.

  • 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.

  • 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.
