We may have just fed Barrett the 5 & 23 thing just to make Bell look even more stupid. 

Uppercut and a right hook on the way out the door.

I definitely got the impression that Barrett was told directly from someone at Melbourne!

Goes both ways, Hogan now knows how highly we rate him

So just for a moment let's suppose Freo aren't the idiot incarnate.

They didn't even rate Hogan at a 1st and 2nd pick.

I must confess I agree..but am very surprised after all their courting they did a runner.

Makes me wonder why ?

Edit... that's exactly where I have Jesse..a first and second rounder

Not convinced, just making him stay. 

Maybe they are trying to be the Magpies of the West. Support us or hate us. They have certainly moved up the ladder on my list. 

Hope they stay anchored to the bottom of the AFL one. 

I’m reading they have withdrawn from chasing Hogan now?  So that really makes this 289 pages of cheese.

It makes both parties look stupid imo. Funny how no one has mentioned that despite the whole forum being against 5+23 an hour ago.

I don’t really care what happens in this trade period now except for a burning desire for Neale to leave Fremantle so that those numnuts have an even weaker midfield to go with their D grade forward line.

Threaten to sit out 2019 Lachie!

Disrespectful to Jesse, that was their chance he's a demon for life.

Then too P&@@ freo off, come to the dee's, would love it!


I would say that we would have had 5+23 lined up to go to the crows for 8 + 14 thus getting our two first round picks. 

 

Freo are cooked.

Grear news for us.

Simon Goodwin will put an arm around Jesse and welcome him back with open arms 

Josh Mahoney should be applauded for standing his ground and being a professional operator compared to those amateurs.

Nowhelp us win a flag jesse!

About time we stood strong.  For Lever we blinked before we sighted the other car, and paid overs.  Graeme Wright and Clarko lead the industry by a country mile.

 

 

We need West Coast in a bidding war in 12-24 months anyway.

Roos sees Hogan as a CHB possibility to allow Weed and McDonald stay forward in the same team.  Might happen in 2019....who knows.

Honestly I think if they have turned down 5+23 then I want to thanks them. I would’ve been extremely pizzed off if we’d accepted that. Only way that gets done IMO is if they throw in their future second rounder as steak knives. 

@hogan ..do not ask for whom the Bell tolls.....

This decision by Freo will put them at the back of the queue when they attempt to lure any quality player in the future. Their strategy for years now has been to bring home grown talent back to WA and this farcical outcome has severely damaged that strategy.

I'm pleased we still have Jesse but concerned we appear to miss out on May.

As a Perth Based Demon, I do feel the need to make a few comments. 

Admittedly I do go to Eagles Games (Wife is a supporter, but loves the Dees too). I have many friends who support either the Dockers or WCE. What has become apparent is the Docker supporters are done. They do not match WCE in an area and many who jumped on the train to Freo in 1995, are now jumping off it.

  • On field they are a rabble
  • Off field they are not looking to flash
  • their trades over the past years have been questionable
  • their members have been told to pay more for their seats (a lot more as they stuffed up the cats at Optus
  • Members are not renewing memberships
  • The coach is hated
  • The players from what I understand are not big on Fyfe (rumour)

Unfortunately they had a chance to secure the one thing that has been missing for a long time at Freo. It goes to show that Freo lack any smarts. They drafted down, and didn't get what they wanted. Lobb is a good player but had they got Hogan aswell!

I personally am glad they never got him and for Jesse sake hope he has a stellar year next year as a Coleman Medalist and Premiership player. 

Good luck to Freo and I hope the Dee's play them at the G or Optus next year so i can attend and enjoy Hogan kicking 7 goals against them and listening to their supporters moan and groan, all 12 of them!

Stuff them....we are in this


No one will line up to deal with them....move over Dodoro

 

I would be absolutely livid if I was Hogan. 

Who the [censored] chases you over and over for 4 straight years, he finally sticks his neck out and takes a leap to join their club and they wont even pay 5 & 23? GAGF freo... you enjoy being [censored] forever

  • REPORT: Gold Coast

    From the start, Melbourne’s performance against the Gold Coast Suns at Peoples First Stadium was nothing short of a massive botch up and it came down in the first instance to poor preparation. Rather than adequately preparing the team for battle against an opponent potentially on the skids after suffering three consecutive losses, the Demons looking anything but sharp and ready to play in the opening minutes of the game. By way of contrast, the Suns demonstrated a clear sense of purpose and will to win. From the very first bounce of the ball they were back to where they left off earlier in the season in Round Three when the teams met at the MCG. They ran rings around the Demons and finished the game off with a dominant six goal final term. This time, they produced another dominant quarter to start the game, restricting Melbourne to a solitary point to lead by six goals at the first break, by which time, the game was all but over.

  • CASEY: Gold Coast

    Coming off four consecutive victories and with a team filled with 17 AFL listed players, the Casey Demons took to their early morning encounter with the lowly Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium with the swagger of a team that thought a win was inevitable. They were smashing it for the first twenty minutes of the game after Tom Fullarton booted the first two goals but they then descended into an abyss of frustrating poor form and lackadaisical effort that saw the swagger and the early arrogance disappear by quarter time when their lead was overtaken by a more intense and committed opponent. The Suns continued to apply the pressure in the second quarter and got out to a three goal lead in mid term before the Demons fought back. A late goal to the home side before the half time bell saw them ten points up at the break and another surge in the third quarter saw them comfortably up with a 23 point lead at the final break.

  • POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

    The Demons did not come to play from the opening bounce and let the Gold Coast kick the first 5 goals of the match. They then outscored the Suns for the next 3 quarters but it was too little too late and their season is now effectively over.
