    Kent and Hogan for 6 and 23.

    Makes sense to pay overs to bring players in, but contracted players going out? Poor form

    If it gets us a flag who gives a [censored]? Sad to Jesse go but business is business.

    You know it's a good deal when the usual posters are the ones melting down, while the rest see this deal for what it is.  Always comforting.

    Still weak at our core.

    Look at other teams around us, Collingwood (Beams) Hawthorn (Wingard, Scully)and Richmond (Lynch), all improved their list. There is no way our list has improved from this.

    Not flash, but player wanted to go.

    Nett gain not great.

    If it gets us May, KK and an additional useful player then that's a decent outcome.

    Not amazing. Not disastrous. Decent.

    I'm partly just glad it's done tbh.

    Overall I think we did well. Got Hogan off with his big salary who did not want to be in Victoria as well his other issues for a first and second round pick.

    That foot - those issues - leads us to new faces and considerable strengthening. Not as bad as the heart feels.

    Good work MFC. 

    Now to get some players in who WANT to be here. 

    Will be interesting to see how many dummy spits Hogan has with the FREO midfield delivering the ball to him.

    I’ll back in our footy department everyday after what they’ve been able to achieve over the passed 4 years.

    Thye have earned and deserve trust.

    Agree.

    The war is the premiership.

    The battle is the trade period.

    A single trade is an engagement.

    So long as everything is driving to winning the war the other parts don’t matter in isolation.

    Who knows if we have the right strategy. Time will tell.

    Gun forwards who kick 50 goals are rare.

     

    We have lost a beauty.

     

    Good Luck to Jesse....but more importantly Go Dees!

    True. And Hogan has never kicked 50 goals in a season.

    I wish him well and hope he will be happy in his new home but don't feel particularly disappointed that he's gone. In my view he never really lived up to expectations. Sure, he played some great games, but for various reasons, some outside his control, he was inconsistent and not really embedded as a team player.

    Not happy but nothing can be done

    A contract of any length is no more than a handshake

    Sad to lose a gun forward who has 7-8 years of AFL left in him. 

    I hope we play the Shockers on the ‘G next year

    It really annoys me that people have a go at the disappointed posters.  Hogan is a generational player, he held our aspirational hopes for a long time and we became attached to him.  I can't believe there is anyone not sad to see him go.  Those knocking the disappointed are just jerks.

    Average trade. We paid overs for Lever and have let Hogan go for unders. Lucky the list is in such good shape otherwise, as we've proven to be weak at the trade table when the big deals need doing.

    You weak piece of crap Mahoney. What happened to two first round picks? Absolutely pathetic yet again from this poser. 

    Farewell and all the best, Jesse.

    Typical heroic post from you

    Would have liked a better deal but it is what it is.

    We're pushing for the flag, if this chain-reaction helps claim a flag then overs/unders can be ignored.

    He's had a rough run, so all the best to Hoges over there, looking forward to a solid Melbourne back-line shutting him out.

    • 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.

      It's Game Day and the Demons are back on the road again and this may be the last roll of the dice to get their 2025 season back on track as they take on the Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium.
