A poster on Bigfooty has said that a 9 Perth reporter, has tweeted that JH's Manager met with another club today, about JH.

Do we have another interested party?

    Interesting.

    Wasn't JH's "open to leaving" declaration with the disclaimer that it had to be Freo?

    Incidentally, what was his aversion to going to WC?  Recall someone saying a while back that he wouldn't go there?

    One of the key reasons many biscuits really have lost favour and texture in the last 10-15 years is the replacement of proper butter or vegetable oils with cheaper palm oil. Best part is, palm oil can still be labeled as 'vegetable' oil. Which is funny anyway because the oil is from a fruit.

    That dull feeling in your mouth is basically the taste of dead orang-utans mixed with the tears of child labourers.

    Mmmmm-mmmm.

     

    Also, I hear Fremantle are now also offering a direct trade of their 500g of palm oil for our 1kg of full-cream butter. But who would even buy a biscuit from those dodgy buggers?

    Some seriouse overreaction melts going down on this thread..

    I don’t think it is an overreaction to be upset if the Tim Tam melts due to being held too long.

    Hogan IS NOT A FREE AGENT NEXT YEAR 

    sorry to shout, but haven’t we gone through that several thousand times?

    Well yes, hence the reference to going in the draft. At which Freo will have one of the first picks.

    Could just as easily be Melbourne throwing out misinformation to media dupes just the way Fremantle appear to have been doing. And why not. There is A LOT of bulltish flying around at the moment with newshounds desperate to go to print with footy news, however half-baked or frankly made up.

    Or could again be Freo trying get us to deal with them. Freo aren't one of our competitors, but if a Victorian side was circling, their warped mentality might think we'd accept a slightly lower bid from Freo in order to get a first rounder and not strengthen one of our major Victorian competitors.

    Perhaps. It could also smack of Freo being not as into Hogan as everyone thinks they are ... could be the salary, could be concerns about the foot, could be ... well, anything. Perhaps from their side, they're just not that desperate.

    Its all gd.

    A bit like Buddy it was always Sydney not GWS.

    Freo are the new GWS, Hogan is bound for Sydney.

     

    Maybe I wasn't far off the mark....

    This has Sydney all over it.

    Could be AF. Could be anything.

    All we need to do is stick fat to our evaluation of Hogan and sit tight. I’m not buying for a second that they’ve ‘cooled’. We’re talking about a side that finished 14th who’s coach is under pressure. 

    They will cave.

    What other suitors for Hogan could there be?

    WC deciding to throw a Dom Sheed into the equation?

    GC trying to replace void left from Lynch?

    One of the SA teams?

    Hawks keen to fill the hole to be left by Roughie?

    Was it Fremantle who [censored] around with Brisbane on Mitch Clark trade when we came in to trump them?

    can someone post the Herald Sun article that is in Fridays edition. It's pay walled but it says WCE could enter the equation. I highly date WCE have the pocks to satisfy us anyway so its just posturing.

    Gc would be perfect.

    Wc have 22 premiership players which could enter the equation.

    Even if WC could satisfy a trade I’m not sure how they would fit him in. They’re already very top heavy and while that worked this year I don’t know how you’d add Hogan into that mix. 

    Interesting that another team may have entered the mix, if it’s Victorian and Hogan is considering it any goodwill I’d have towards the bloke would be shattered. I understand a desire to get home, surely it’s Perth or stay at Melbourne.

    This has “go home factor”, Freo, Mitch Clark and 11 th hour surprise destination all over it

    • PREVIEW: Hawthorn

      Melbourne and Hawthorn who face off against each other this week have more in common than having once almost merged and about to wear a blue jumper with a red v triangle and an embroidered picture of a bird on the front. They also share the MCG as their main home ground, their supporters are associated with the leafy suburbs of Melbourne and in recent times, James Frawley graced the colours of both teams. Even more recently, both have bounced back from disastrous five game losing streaks to start off a season. Of course, the Hawks turned their bounce into a successful leap from the bottom of the ladder into a finals appearance, making it to the semifinals in 2024 and this year, they’re riding high in third place on the AFL table. The Demons are just three games into their 2025 bounce back, and are yet to climb their way out of the bottom four although they are sitting a game and percentage out of the top eight. However, with the current sportsbet odds of $3.90 to win this week’s encounter, it seems a forlorn hope that their upward progression will continue much longer.

    • REPORT: West Coast

      On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.
