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I’m reading they have withdrawn from chasing Hogan now?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!

Well, now that the Hogan trade is off the table, can we all get back to discussing biscuits?

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

  • 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.

  • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

    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?

  • POSTGAME: Collingwood

    Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.
