That was my first thought when I asked Chook who he was worried about slandering.

Well, if I am picking up what @Chook in Perth is putting down, then my questions around why the club is so ready to move on from Hogan have been answered...

Yes, some can read the tea leaves.

So no further news today, and Jesse is reportedly enjoying himself in Bali. Either it's been done behind closed doors out of the public eye, or he's stuffing both clubs around. The fact he toured Freo's facilities shows his lack of commitment to us, and for that reason I think it's best we try to move him on and get the best deal possible.

Don't start telling them this Red....they all think the circus is real. Well it is real...it's a real circus lol

It's a bit like impromptu theatre. Most has already been sorted or situated....just needs the paperwork ;)

Most people enjoy the illusion though.

Don’t think that’s quite accurate, B’bub.

There’s circus and theatre but a very real negotiation underway. Still an outside possibility Hogan stays. Mahoney isn’t bluffing.

The foot issue thing is clearly bogus.

Terry Wallace today on Trade Radio said he was reading between the tea leaves... ?‍♂️

Whatever turns you on Terry. Just don't spew on them.

No shortage of irony in a few prominent posters claiming to now by ‘reading the tea leaves’ either having no clue that this was going to happen a few weeks ago, or adamant that it would never happen while they remained above ground. 

Talk about run with the foxes and hunt with the hounds! 

All fun though. Human nature to want to come out crowing.

I'm fairly concerned about Frost getting badly sunburnt.

It could  make him permanently deaf.

Hoges went to Bali last year with Maxy, Kent and Harmes... That photo is an oldie from a pre season camp if i'm correct.

I hope so we need a decision from Hoges pronto!

Summary of the points re Hogan:

  • Dockers cooling partly because of Lobb's arrival and partly the Demons are demanding two early first-round picks.
  • the spearhead's recovery from a navicular injury among the pressing issues it has to address.
  • There is still a chance Hogan could remain at Melbourne, but it appears far more likely he will be in the Dockers' purple and white next season.
  • Hogan is unlikely to officially request a trade to Fremantle in the next day or so, but it's understood progress is being made behind the scenes that is inching him closer to that point.
  • But, as they consider such a blockbuster trade, the Dockers won't be rushed. 

My read is he will be a Docker next year but we wait a few days to hear an official trade request.

 

As an aside, in case anyone missed it @Mach5reported in the AVB thread that we may trade him and 2nd/3rd round picks to Sydney for pick 12.   Could come in very handy in a trade to GCS so we can break the nexus between the Hogan and May deal.

    TRAINING: Friday 22nd November 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
