Can we now close this thread? Castigation and innuendo serve little purpose and Jesse, the FD/MFC and our success may still warrant our respect? 

Maybe we can all say our final goodbyes before the thread is closed for good?

Bumped into the big fella today, still looked unhappy. Maybe it wasn’t us after all. 

ET you must get that a lot. Good to see you haven't taken it too personally. :)

I would like to suggest that those asking for a thread to be closed be banned for 1 month. If the thread is going after the month ban them for life. 

There are too many killjoys in life, don't come here if you don't like it. It is not compulsory.

Ha(r)mes' Hangers?

They got rid of the high mark on that bag over Robbo - I think when one guy landed on his head.

Now they have the "high ball" from the machine.  Could still be Haymes Harmes High-ball

I was at that game and he was completely knocked out. Looked pretty serious actually. He and the club were lucky it was not more serious.

File under 'what were they thinking'and/or 'what could go wrong???'

I've long-wondered what the insurance policy is like for the game-break entertainment.

When that guy fell on his head and not much was said, the following week it was called something else, it was conspicuous to say the least. 

Even the hamstring puller (he has to be a Demonlander, right?), did he charge someone for his injury? Or did he sign a release prior to running?

Maybe I'm too used to dealing with finances in my business. :P

It was more of an inference based on my observations. 

ET I used the same gag about bumming a dart off of him, so deleted it.

On behalf of Carly Simon, ET, i thought you would be saying that Jessie's back in town........

For the next couple of years it is inevitable that here will be a Hogan thread either here or on the main board (which is where it will pop up as the season gets underway).    No point in closing this till then.

Dare I say it will be similar to having a continuous WATTS thread!!!


The Dockers released an ‘Jesse Hogan membership cards’ email to supporters today, perhaps time to close this thread. 

Image result for move on people

At the end of the day he was paid 900k this year and he stated that the fact that he had a Freo offer for next year was weighing on his mind. That's not cool whichever way you look at it. Our highest paid player did not have his sole focus on MFC. I know he is a gun, and he will be a superstar. 900K should be enough to buy loyalty and undivided focus. 

And for anyone who shoots off the "go home factor". I am pretty sure Jesse said his Dad wanted him to stay at Melbourne. Well that's what he said before signing last time. All things considered I think he is a bit of a [censored] and a disloyal one at that.

So while we trying our best to win our first flag in a generation with a realistic attempt Jesse has eyes elsewhere.

On a selfish level, im curious to see how many pages we can get up to over the course of his career.

Missing friends in Melbourne. Freo have said he is able to be in Melbourne midweek on compassionate grounds. Had a coffee & a dart with Goodwin, discussed coming home to Melbourne if a deal could be worked out

  • REPORT: Port Adelaide

    Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

  • CASEY: Essendon

    Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

  • PREGAME: Gold Coast

    The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

    The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
