We'll get to 800 over 8 years if Jesse wins a few Colemans :laugh:

For Freo, with Ross Lyon coaching....not much chance.

 

I do just want to say that unlike nearly all players that leave Melbourne I will have a large soft spot for Hogan.

I think he's definitely wired differently to some, who wouldn't be so concerned being away from family and friends. but he's a hugely talented and smart footballer.

I wish him well.

That pick swap...something afoot you reckon? Got a feeling we're not done.

its a curiosity isnt it..as I wondered in another thread...we have days to complete pick swaps...but only until 8.30 tonight to do another deal for a player. 

The trade feels a bit underwhelming but we probably couldn't do much more seeing as Jesse was determined to return to Perth....might as well move on at least we have 2 players who should strengthen the best 22 for 2019


What if the kid we draft at 23 is another Oliver.

How would the deal look then?

I have already had my meltdown and cannot work out what is going on in Hogans head. I still think this "I am homesick" twist for the playing life of an AFL footballer is ridiculous.

 

And as you ridiculous as it may seem to you, this has always existed for some footballers. It may be ridiculous but there is a big enough body of evidence to tell you that it well and truly exists.

According to Josh Mahoney:

Jesse wanted to leave and his preference was Fremantle. Leave on good terms. If Melbourne played in Perth he'd be playing for us.

"Wanted to leave" is different to wanted to go home, or am I reading too much into this?

Not to wish injury, but wouldn't feel bad if his foot's [censored].

Not a bad outcome; although only time will tell.

Glad it's all over. Time to kick back with a glass of whisky and some cheese and biscuits.

What sort?

I think you’re reading too much into it.

I'm disappointed because I think Jesse has talent. Thanks Jesse. I hope you don't play well against us though! 

Anything else said re our activity?

Are we done, or still got something cooking

What dippy is saying is that pick 65 is the deal we got for Kent. We then on traded that in the hogan deal.

Thanks, but I know that and posted it earlier.

What I was saying is that you look at all the deals to see how we went, not just one.

  • 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.
