According to Josh Mahoney:

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

Cold comfort

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.

There's a bit of this & while I wish him well personally, professionally - not so much

Hard not to feel a sense of loss though. Nothing to do with trade wins or picks received.

Simply put, I just loved watching him play footy for us and think his best is yet to come. I'd have liked to have watched that

I never feel the same about players traded in as those drafted.  Bernie aside.

Will you feel the same way if May were to win a Norm Smith in a winning Granny a la Brian Lake?

Need a vomit button. 

Freo will still struggle to kick goals. Gained a forward. Lost a mid.

Goodbye Jesse.

I had high hopes for you ,but you couldn’t commit to the mighty Dees.

To me you are now just another opposition player playing for a team we will aim to smash on our way to the big one!

Red and Blue forever.

He'll aways be an import and so the connection isn't as strong as say someone like Spargo.  I'll obviously support him but it's just different somehow.

Probably only me.

I think when the emotion of this subsides over the coming days many will see that our list is in better shape than it was prior to the trade period.

The big plus is the circus is finally over and we now look like we have a list of players committed to the club.

I think you'll feel differently once he runs out on the G in Round 1.

Thanks Jesse you got us to finals, you gave us hope, and you can move on to a cruisier life in Freo potentially. 

A whisper was this was player led re: professionalism and standards...so as some people say he didn't buy into Melbourne FC, maybe not quite the case, just who Melbourne FC now want to be.

All the best JH for whatever comes next.

    HIGHLIGHTS/LOWLIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Melbourne traveled across the continent to take on the Fremantle Dockers in sweltering conditions at Mandurah south of Perth in a game that delivered the club both its highlight and its lowlight in the first minute.  But first, let’s start by doing away with the usual cliches used in connection with the game. It was just a practice match and the result didn’t matter. Bad kicking is bad football. The game was played in severe heat, the swirly breeze played havoc with both teams resulting in

    TRAINING: Friday 28th February 2025

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock to bring you their observations from today's training session before the Demons head off to Perth for their final Practice Match. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Beautiful morning, not much wind, more than a couple of dozen spectators.  The players were up and about, boisterous and having fun. One of their last drills were three teams competing in a hard at it, handball game in a small area. Goody

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the
