Mahoney dropped his nuts at the trade table. ..

So do you think we will be a worse side next year with no Hogan but May & KK in? Think about our wins without Hogan then answer.

Edit: How many more wins if we had had May? 2 = top 4 finish

Yes Peter Bell wins. Mahoney caved but knew Jesse wanted to go home. 

We all move on. 

I don't understand how he wins...

Made a big song and dance on Friday about pulling out of the Hogan deal and ended up paying what was offered on the Friday.

Not much changed except for Bell doing a 180...

[censored] Fremantle but they’ve come out smelling roses. 

ONLY UNTIL FREO ATTEMPT TO FIELD HOGAN WEEK IN, WEEK OUT. For Freo, to avoid further embarrassment, they had to complete this deal at any cost. The navicular injury is lifelong. Just as the attitude and histrionics are self-centred. The MFC could see what bubbled beneath the surface. Success is a team game - not an individual pursuit.

My understanding of negotiation in any business is that you start off asking for more than you're likely to get. And everybody involved in the deal knows it. I would hardly expect Mahoney to ask for something and then be given more than he wanted. I can't understand why people seem surprised or disappointed that we didn't get what was surely an initial ambit claim.

Fair call mate, I'm too attached to Hogan to have a reasonable or unbiased view on this LDC, just so disappointed he's gone. I'll be right in a couple of hours ?

Yep - we move on

Professional club that saw a hole and filled it

Hogan and Lobb will be salivating with the likes of Lachie Neale sticking it down their throat... oh hang on. 

 

I was a fan, but like ProDee I question why any sane, driven player would bail out now. 

Take solace in the fact that Weid has performed in front of back to back 90k crowds. Something Hogan will never experience. 

 

I’m not 100% sure about May and KK, but if they perform well then there’s nothing wrong with this deal at all.

With all this talk of being bent over and balls being lost, seeing a hole and filling it is another zinger (or am i being a little too perverse?)

Out: Hogan and a pick we didnt need.

In: May, Kolodashnij and pick 23.

I'm happy. Welcome new guys and all the best to Jesse.

Wow. You got through the five stages of grief in record time!

Sad, but understandable.

I won't hold anything against Jesse for wanting to go home. He has had a pretty [censored] couple of years. It wouldn't have been much fun for him to sit out the finals after working so hard to get there.

There are a lot of variables on the table now. The trade works for us so long as the Weed continues to develop and Preuss can drop into the hole that Maxy worked so well.

There is a lot on here of Jessie's shortcomings.  Many on here happy to pot him on his way out.

I loved watching him play and he was an important part of our team while it was being rebuilt.  He was our only key forward for a few years (Clarke and Dawes always injured). 

He deserves recognition for sticking around when he could have left and spent more time with his dad.

Thanks Jessie for sticking with us during our tough times.  All the best at Freo.  Hope going home brings you the happiness you are seeking.

Excellent post, well said LH

Disappointed to see Jesse go but May and KK (who I rate very highly) to the club is excellent.

Id be interested in a last minute trade for 23 if someone became available...

Edited by TeamPlayedFine39
Wrong pick

just as an aside - does anyone truly believe that Mahoney came out said the things about being open to Jesse being traded and also what final deal was going to be acceptable without input from others at the club ? This a Mahoney decision and no-one else's ? 


Door closed on Hogan!  Weed better step up next year.  Time for a new forward to make a name at MFC.  Come on Weed the world is your oyster and possibly a flag next year!  Hogan can enjoy the exciting brand of Fremantle!!!!

Good luck Jesse...good waves and sunsets to you lad

Cheers

( Have fun with Ross... everyone does by all accounts ;) )

For those who like me  may have been wondering, our draft picks are:-

23, 36, 46, 54, 62, 91

So we have traded out, retired and delisted 11 players, traded in 3 players but only have 6 picks. I'm confused. Do we have 2 fewer players on our list this season?

Dodo will ask for 23 for that fast midget who cant kick

hahaha...i'm really struggling with this one mate, it's  bringing back nightmares of the wizard being poached by Freo. I'm far more upset with him leaving more than anything Josh has said, just deflecting i think, i'm very unreasonable at the moment mate

Anyone know our flag odds now ? ;)

Maybe have our eyes on a DFA..?

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
