Do some research and understand the basics of how the draft and trade period works Einstein. We don't get an opportunity to match the offer if he goes into the draft and he's not a free agent. Fact

I was wrong thank you. I was thinking of his RFA status. 

PS:- When you make a mistake man up.

A few thoughts, I think Mahoney coming out and saying we can't land May without moving on Jesse could be a driving factor in Freo's offer also, I reckon Josh would like to take those words back however Freo are just about proving themselves as not worth dealing with by any club, their negotiation process and hard stance from the outside looks like total disorganisation. They could have sent Neale on his way and landed both Hogan and Lobb by now and focused on bringing in more trades, this from a club that nobody has wanted to go for years and they have 2 who do want to now (yes Jesse has told them he wants to play for them).

Seems like West Coast may still be interested and I hope Gold Coast come knocking with their picks also, Jesse could be a marquee player for them for 10 years and the AFL will pay his salary or help out at least. Work out a deal with May, KK maybe Jack Martin or some decent player (KPF depth)and get it done.

I do think Jesse will end up at Freo at this stage, but they'd want to get cracking. What a basketcase of a club, basically holding up many other clubs doing deals while they're at it too. The way they've conducted themselves this trade period is an embarrassment and I would be [censored] off if I was a member.

Anyway, I think it was a pretty slimy move from Freo trading their pick 6, trying to make us fold, but buckle up, the more clubs come knocking the better now and it'll all come back to bite them. What a beautiful article/clip from 9 Perth last night haha.

But, the fact Jesse has said he wants to go to Freo, I don't want him next year now, before that I wasn't phased either way, so long as we get what we ask, which is 2 first rounders or similar.

Hey SF, has Jesse come out and said he wants to go to Freo or is that being (understandably) implied from his conduct ie touring facilities etc... Apologies if it has been posted earlier as it becomes close to a full time job keeping up with this thread lol.

They said on TR this morning he had told Freo he wants to play for them, maybe Mitch Cleary? 

Hang on. Wait a minute.   

Freo are demanding pick 5 and another late first round pick for Neale and won't budge. 

Yet they've offered us pick 11 and a second rounder for Jesse? 

Right so they're just making jokes, I get it now.

Haha good one Freo. 


Some gent keeps pestering SEN asking Gary to read out his sms. He is adamant the other club is Sydney. Is this some who reads or contributes to Demonland? C'mon fess up if you are bombarding SEN

Freo offering a future second is also an insult, assuming they'll move up a little with natural progression

He is RFA next year and we can match an offer. If he goes into the draft they have to use their first pick, that would probably need to be pick 1. I am pleased that you are learning the meaning of the word fact, although you still have not fully understood how it applies to your own posts. I think working social mores may be beyond you at this stage but don't give up.

Hogan is not a free agent of any kind next year, he's just a dude without a contract.

As has been explained on this thread about once every 7 pages.

Thanks. Like the cheating girlfriend - his actions have implied he wants to leave us and is probably obvious to the outside world but when the words come out (if true) it still hurts.

He wouldn't have done a medical if he didn't want to go there.

I’d love for Sydney to swoop in and stuff Freo. The lulz would be epic. Couldn’t get Clark done and now they stuff Hogan deal.

I'd love GC to come into the picture; more scope for a fair deal.

Hogan allegedly telling Freo he wants to go there would make sense as to why Freo think they hold some power in negiotiations. 

Nah but Hogan is a free agent next year...

It's more of a 'girlfriend doesnt want to commit to marriage, therefore i'll let her see some other guys for a few weeks and then decide on marriage with me or breaking up ' type of arrangement ?

Mick Warner "In the end, Fremantle will give up pick 5 for Jesse Hogan. They will play hardball, but will relent around 7pm next Wednesday night."

Nailed it! Love it (the post) not the situation ?

We find ourselves with no first round draft pick this year in what is meant to be a good at the risk we took when we traded future drafts..............SO I’m not against trading Jesse Hogan for the right price BUT let’s not give him away !!

Hes worth two first round draft picks and low ones at that........trade him next year or the year after BUT don’t give him away

Pick 5 and .... who knows with Freo. Maybe just pick 5 but they will probably on trade that as well to Adel. 

Trade Radio. "May just waiting for the deal to happen now, wants to be at MFC. Shopping for houses in Melbourne"

I know it's probably well known, but it's nice to hear it spoken of as just about a done deal, and not that he will re-sign with GCS if the offer isn't good enough from us.

Well just logged on, has Freo given away all their picks yet? Or a we still a chance with May?

You’re sooooo far behind. Hogan to GC for May, KK and pick 3.

Had a similar thought.

Whilst none of us appreciate their shenanigans Freo, in their own fashion are just shopping with what they have( and will have ) . From their standpoint they're trying to maximize their bang for buck. Good for them. That's beholden upon them to do so for that club.

It's actually up to us and others to negotiate better deals. No one gets a free ride. This is pure market forces at work.

Trading ain't finished yet.

Have some faith people.

You can't shop with no money and a dodgy credit card like these idiots are trying to do

Why not do your trades get your credit then spend it on Hogan What was the rush to declare interest in a player you cannot afford?

  • PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

    With both sides precariously positioned ahead of the run home to the finals, only one team involved in Sunday’s clash at the Adelaide Oval between the Power and the Demons will remain a contender when it’s over.  On current form, that one team has to be Melbourne which narrowly missed out on defeating the competition’s power house Collingwood on King's Birthday and also recently overpowered both 2024 Grand Finalists. Conversely, Port Adelaide snapped out of a four-game losing streak with a win against the Giants in Canberra. Although they will be rejuvenated following that victory, their performances during that run of losses were sub par and resulted in some embarrassing blow out defeats.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

    The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?
