5 minutes prior to that ...

PB's wife: you knew I was looking forward to that car! You've embarrassed me. You go right back and apologise and buy it!!! Or no nookie for the next ...... forever!!!!!!

For a recently newlywed like Bell the ‘no nookie’ approach may have currency. However after several years of marriage it may become an empty threat.

I think so too. Still learning who is what here.

Won't happen again with that muppet.

If I am the ‘muppet’ then you have misread @Deestroy All’s diagnosis...

I have already done it and told him what I think. 

All Noise, posturing and fugazzi.

The deal will happen.

Are we all sure we have all the information?

I don't think so.

That's the only other thing I'm sure of.  We don't.

Here's the bit that gets me:

Freo (apparently) had told Jesse's management that they would do the deal, involving their pick 6.  They then proceed to trade that out so that deal cannot get done.  WTF?

 

This is the bit that gets me angry.

Sell the trade they have for multiple larger numbers and then say the deal is off. That is Primary School etiquette

From this post I can only assume you are unaware of this poster’s history. I will suggest that you treat the info he shares with some circumspection and leave it at that.

But hang on mate. Dangerfield is coming isn't he?

I'm feeling content - no lose situation.

Trade with Fremantle will happen at a reasonable price and we'll on trade for May.

Trade doesn't happen and an exciting experiment with Jesse at CHB in 2019.

The dogs may bark but the caravan rolls along.

... that tackler is a Nigerian prince whose father the king has been imprisoned by military plotters and his $100m fortune has been frozen by banks. And PB has been specially selected to gain 10% of that for a small favour ...

I just told him how amazing Jesse is and that he should just do the deal and leave the thinking to those better qualified for it.

Bell's comment about due diligence didn't refer to checking out the player.  I supposed  Bell was just  trying to use big 'business-speak' words instead of simply saying that they won't continue negotiating because MFC is asking far too much.    That seemed to fit the context in his press release and the point made by SFebes.   

Signs of a person who is not very confident in the decisions and actions that he might take or gets involved in, yet still insists on punching above his weight.

Projection level  -  Infinity

Spot on.

It's funny isn't it and a pretty good microcosm of the fetid, stagnant pool of rumour, half truths and calculated lies that passes for reporting and 'news'  this time of year.

I mean the opinion of a middle age bloke who had an affair with a teen, is called toot root by everyone because of his out of control drug habit, has been barred as a player agent and is in total disgrace gets oxygen. Crazy.

Maybe Jesse was not very impressed by what he saw at Freo

one wouldn't need to be einstein

i can't fathom why jesse would want to go to freo of all places even before this fiasco


Hogan may not like what he saw at Freo , however it would be easy money for him to make !!!! . Reminds me of the old days at Demonland , when we got smashed by 186 pts players laughed about it, one player got dropped. If that wasn't easy money for playing for a club , I don't know what is .

This article provides nothing. No direct quote or even a vague reference to an ‘unnamed source’. Just a hunch on the part of the journo. Yet based on this most of you are piling back on believing Jesse will be a Docker by Wednesday. 

I’m telling you right now. They’ve gone cold on him. Bell isn’t bluffing, they’re no longer interested.

We’re stuck with Hogan for 12 months and this will all happen again next year.

My interpretation was a more basic version of the same: dumb footballer trying to use corporate [censored] speak and mincing his words.

and why trade the pick that was already agreed upon ?  as from what been said a deal was done for 6 and a second round pick  in principal then freo  traded pick 6 !

And if you are wrong you will have Peter Bell as your avatar for a year.

Being stuck with Cale Morton was a lot worse. No doubt about it

  • 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.
