Farewell Jesse Hogan

Devil In Disguise
in Melbourne Demons

Absolutely stoked for Jess today.

While I would most want him playing with us, Sydney (and especially GWS) might be a blessing for him. No pressure will be on him in a part of Australia where he can go to the milkbar or pub and not get hassled.

The last high profile Demon who went there I have no time for. This one I have nothing but love for still. ??

    Preuss wishes he has a profile.

     

    .

    P.S.  I quite liked the big PREUUUUUS.  Also hope he gets a break with injuries and gets out on the park, although I'd also worry that GWS are starting to look pretty good as a side again, so perhaps he can take his time a bit too.

    I was wondering why Preuss wasn’t getting a game at GWS. I tuned out completely over the PS and didn’t realise he’d had a shoulder reconstruction. First time he’s had a real shot at a #1 ruck spot. Unlucky!

    If he was fit he'd be getting games ahead of the mummy, no doubt about that for me.

    The universal love on here for Jesse is heartwarming.

    Also heartwarming is this story of how he has settled into Mummy's family life, courtesy of Mummy's granny flat.  how-mumford-and-sons-became-hogan-s-heroes

    I must admit I was worried early this year when I read he had moved into Mummy's granny flat given the 'white powder' stories about Mumford a few years ago mumford-breaks-silence   Now, it seems to be working well for everyone. 

    Other than when he stayed with a Dees host family when first coming over as a 17 year old, he would not have had much in the way of family life or the support, comfort and structure such provides.  As he became independent and life's trials beset him its understandable that he became somewhat directionless, or least that is how it looks from the outside.

    Now he is 26 the age where he and others are maturing.  He has shown true grit and resilience to endure all that he has and be on the cusp of fulfilling his potential.  I am rapt that he has found a 'home' with Mummy's family (an ironic nickname in the context of this story) and will delight in watching him play (except against us). 

    Overall, I just hope Jesse is happy ?.  Just love the guy ❣️

    Wish him nothing but the best. Was disappointed to see him go and would have welcomed him back but on reflection the club made the right call.

    If he can settle and start enjoying his footy he can be a real weapon for the Giants. Him and Greene operating in the same forward line will give opposition defences' plenty to think about.

    Looked in great shape. Played well.

    Great effort for a third club.

    Hope he goes gangbusters since we have already played gws.

    Good luck to him.  3 on the weekend and maybe will snag a few against Sydney.  I wish him all the best, just not if they happen to meet us in the coming weeks :)

    Interesting he laments leaving the dees and that watching us win a flag was "torture"

    In a sliding doors world and he was still with us, I wonder who would have made way for him from the grand final team.

    If he was still with us there would be no Ben Brown. 

    That would have been Hogan's spot.

    Or perhaps there would be no Tom McDonald. Hogan and Brown are very different players. 

    Hogan plays best roaming further from goal. In all likelihood if he was still with us McDonald would have been traded and so would Weideman

    Who knows.

    A fit Ben Brown and Jesse Hogan in the same forward line would have been one tantalising combo.

    • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

      Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

    • PREGAME: St. Kilda

      With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

    • REPORT: Richmond

      Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.

      The Dees ran another clinic for the second week in a row as they easily accounted for the Tigers in the lightning interrupted shortened match at Mars Stadium in Ballarat.

    • VOTES: Richmond

      Kozzy Pickett was the man of the match last week and has a vote lead over backup ruck Max Heath who didn't play this week and 5 votes over former Saint Jack Steele. Who gets the votes in this weeks shortened match win over the Tigers? Your votes please. 6, 5, 4, 3, 2 & 1.

      It's Game Day and the 2026 AFL Premiership season is almost upon us as the Demons take to the field for their final practice match before the first ball is kicked in anger in 16 days time. What are you expecting to see from the Dees today as they take on the Tigers at Mars Stadium in Ballarat?
