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.

    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.

    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.

    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: Hawthorn

      Melbourne and Hawthorn who face off against each other this week have more in common than having once almost merged and about to wear a blue jumper with a red v triangle and an embroidered picture of a bird on the front.  They also share the MCG as their main home ground, their supporters are associated with the leafy suburbs of Melbourne and in recent times, James Frawley graced the colours of both teams. Even more recently, both have bounced back from disastrous five game losing streaks to start off a season. Of course, the Hawks turned their bounce into a successful leap from the bottom of the ladder into a finals appearance, making it to the semifinals in 2024 and this year, they’re riding high in third place on the AFL table. The Demons are just three games into their 2025 bounce back, and are yet to climb their way out of the bottom four although they are sitting a game and percentage out of the top eight. However, with the current sportsbet odds of $3.90 to win this week’s encounter, it seems a forlorn hope that their upward progression will continue much longer.

    • REPORT: West Coast

      On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.
