Good to see Fremantle's MK-Ultra operative Basil Zempilas has been activated by Peter Bell.

    What? He'll kick 55 goals, miss 5 games through injury and be in the top 5 for assists league wide, business as usual.

    Granted, provided he commits with signature.....

    So what actually just happened?

    Someone pressed a wrong button?

    Zempilas and Bell are colluding?

    Or....let’s play a joke on Demonland, those folks won’t sleep tonight if we run this.

    No one really knows....I've seen nothing on Twitter other than people being very confused with what Basil said. Something does seem fishy, you'd think if he failed the medical it'd be impossible to keep it out of the media and Basil would have said something, wouldn't you? Claiming that Freo have "missed out" on Hogan makes it look like he's decided to stay at the Dee's himself...FWIW I reckon he's still Freo bound..

    Can anyone provide footage of this news grab? Is this a non-event false alarm?

    Source is unlikely to be Jesse or MFC so pressume Freo have said they've missed out

    Likely a reaction to high asking price, concerns around foot/other

    I never believed he was leaving.   Now of course, he still might, but this whole thing has just been weird since it started.

    Jesse seems like the kind of bloke who'd go tour Freos facilities just to kill a few hours while visiting his home town.  Hes a unique fella.

    Unless someone filmed it you might be up [censored] creek. Apparently 7Perth have removed the story from all forms of their social media and online outlets.

    Something doesn’t seem right here. Surely if this was true the Melbourne based media would be running with this by now. Doesn’t add up.

    Basil and Bell know each other well from their time working at the same radio station 6PR. Plenty more to play out me thinks

    If this is his perspective on vertical wooden structures it could explain some of his missed shots on goal ....

    or .....

    he is experimenting with substances on his break?

    If Jesse stays it doesn't leave mushroom in our salary cap for May ?

    SEN played the audio of the 6 seconds of report from Baz numerous times,  which was something like " Fremantle has missed out on star forward Jesse Hogan who is set to remain a Demon" - assume it'll be replayed a bit tomorrow morning on Trade Radio

    7 News prepared a graphic as per this screenshot of Perth Now story

     If this news is correct, it gels with what I heard. It was Jesse that was not 100%sold on Freo. Game plan, coaching and the immediate future of playing once again for a bottom quarter club.

     

    arrgh... I smell an internal rat.    Freo water rat.

    What IF, Bell and some others inside, have decided to wait and hold,,, hold Neale, with a view to relieve Lyon of his job, some time in the next 12 months.

    And a change of coach, with change of game style... this enables Neale and the likes of Hogan to thrive.

    There seems to have been a change of heart, Re Neale, and now maybe Hogan, mid Trade-Period stream... just over the last few days?

    How long has Bell been there, in his job ?

    SEN played the audio of Basil’s news clip several times. The host on SEN is still perplexed as they cannot get it confirmed from any other source (let alone Basil or Ch 7).

    Looks like they have edited the video and taken the part out about Hogan

    You would think to run such a big AFL story the producers in Seven Perth would ask for double confirmation and offer up more than just a 6 second clip with zero additional info.

    • NON-MFC: Round 06

      The Easter Round kicks off in style with a Thursday night showdown between Brisbane and Collingwood, as both sides look to solidify their spots inside the Top 4 early in the season. Good Friday brings a double-header, with Carlton out to claim consecutive wins when they face the struggling Kangaroos, while later that night the Eagles host the Bombers in Perth, still chasing their first victory of the year. Saturday features another marquee clash as the resurgent Crows look to rebound from back-to-back losses against a formidable GWS outfit. That evening, all eyes will be on Marvel Stadium where Damien Hardwick returns to face his old side—the Tigers—coaching the Suns at a ground he's never hidden his disdain for. Sunday offers two crucial contests where the prize is keeping touch with the Top 8. First, Sydney and Port Adelaide go head-to-head, followed by a fierce battle between the Bulldogs and the Saints. Then, Easter Monday delivers the traditional clash between two bitter rivals, both desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top end of the ladder. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Essendon

      What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

    • POSTGAME: Essendon

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.
