His manager is telling him to hold out for a better deal next year. Hogan is torn. Why would manager think Freo will offer more next year if Jesse turns them down now? Betting on WCE coming into the game, perhaps. High risk stakes if that is the case. And how much more does Jesse (or manager) want. If the kid wants to go home, let him. Why put him thru another year of angst and speculation. The extra $$ (after tax/manager fee) for Jesse, surely can't be be worth that. If Jesse turns Freo down for $$ he may never get back to Perth. 2 Quote

Jesse didn’t do a medical test while at dockers HQ because he’s still not allowed to run. He may have had additional scans done. But I think this is all BS You do realise you can do medical exeminations without the running? All they would need is a copy of medical report on his foot from the specialist he saw down here. Even if hes foot was fine, some medicals don't require running. He's definitely done a medical at Freo. Edited October 9, 2018 by dazzledavey36 5 Quote

LH , I suspect this is Melbourne forcing the hand of others...i.e create an unattractive course if remaining with Melbourne. You stay ...it's on our terms. If going...stop fn around...and manager .. go f yourself. A crude summary but gut says this is the way we're going. I think we will never be held to ransom again. Go Dees Quote

Go Dees That may be mfc position but they can't force him to go and he stays another year as unpalatable as that may be. It is the manager's advice I was commenting on. Selling the kid short telling him to wait for a better deal next year. Get the best deal he can now. A deal can't be that much better next year. Quote

hells bells 2,023 Posted October 9, 2018 Posted October 9, 2018 Surely in this instance a medical would have to come from an independent 3rd party and not from the buyers doctor. I couldn’t see any reason why the Fremantle doctor would cast doubt on Jesse’s injury that would tip the balance of the trade in Fremantle’s favour. ??? Quote

Yes am aware. Hence the reference to his management. I just think Dees are trying to wrest back as much of this into their control as possible. As was mentioned somewhere by someone in media ( apologies as just couldn't give a fig to read the byline ) ...that players have TOO much power. They're entitled to say...but it's about a team. Quote

It does not seem that the world and its advice is setting Jesse Hogan up for the better outcome in his playing days and in its future. In that process, that appears quite debilitating, there is an undertone suspicion that he is being exploited against his best interests. Quote

Some people look at his surname and live in fantasy world. Pick 2 in a reasonable draft and had equal numbers with Cerra. What's not to like Quote
SFebes 4,884 Posted October 9, 2018 Posted October 9, 2018 From what I've heard, the deal is still on. Until it's officially off from the club I'll assume it's still on. I think the failed medical is BS and Freo have been spreading rumours (not just that). 4 Quote

Fair enough, but how about stating your source and what level of credibility you give them when posting. I'm sick of posts which make some bold assertion without giving me any background to enable me to judge its reliability. 1 Quote
