Hack journo who played cricket.

He’s not a hack, he’s actually pretty well connected in WA and if you listen to his segment it’s not sensationalist and contains a lot of information.

(Not saying he’s right, but he’s got a lot right in the past)

Rain, hail or shine - he gets paid. Whilst under contract it doesnt matter if he plays or not.

Wonder if Jesse is on a contract with base plus performance (number of games)?

On top of a long term injury that would add to the anxiety.

Wow this is big news.  I thought we could maybe give them a 3rd rounder in the trade period but looks as if we might be able to  just sign him as a delisted free agent.

Poor Jesse hope he can make some progress from here

Get him back!

Yep. Next year if he gets paid oout by Freo. Get him right in the head and he is a great player.

Hagdon must have some pretty good sources to be able to write that, and make it public  

get out of Perth Jesse...

Sucks to be a Full Forward

Sweet Jesus,

He is an absolute hack and is not well connected in WA, may have been 20 years ago

He gets a lot more wrong than he gets right, this will be a fishing expedition because he's getting nothing from Freo and is trying to force a comment.

Wowee that is a massive fishing trip and if wrong he should be held accountable as that is a massive.

Jungle drums are beating, rumours flying, some claim eyewitness accounts of wrongdoings. Some suggest half of WA have seen the antics, you don't have to look far. I hope some at our club extend a helping hand, I think the lad may need it. Footy is the least of the worries.

This is huge news if true and at the same time incredibly sad.

No mention of Insurance Companies/Managers in this debacle.....strange


There were obvious reasons why we moved him on for what seemed like unders. Such a shame his career seems to be turning out this way. He was genuinely one of the most exciting forward talents we’d seen in years.
 

Hopefully he can work through his issues and have a healthy life in the end.

Have a year off Jesse, get sorted/well...

Then come home to the Dees! 
 

ps was thinking about how much structure and support Jesse had built in his time at MFC (ages 17-23), and that walking away from that to go to Freo may not have helped him...

  • PREVIEW: 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.
