Mahoney what are you thinking???

 

 

I hoped for a smigde more, but right now I'm OK with this.  We won two finals without Hogan.

Let's see what we turn 6 and 23 into , feels like we have been shafted on the surface

Why do people rate Mahoney ? Lost the lever deal badly and we just got screwed. Massively. Ridiculous. You alway pay overs to extract a player. Except from the dees. Terrible. Terrible. Terrible waste. So Neale gets more for Freo ?

Maybe Im greedy but I feel like it needed to be more

Yes you are greedy.

 

So the deal is Hogan and Kent for 6 and 23.

Hopefully we keep 23 after getting May and KK.

This could yet end up an extremely embarrassing deal for us.

We will see how it all ends up after the May/KK deals.


I’ll back in our footy department everyday after what they’ve been able to achieve over the passed 4 years.

Thye have earned and deserve trust.

geeze, I heard his foot isn't too flash... too early? 

Off field issues as well.... :) 

 

Onesrds and upwards.   The reality is he didn't want to be at the MFC and we have avoided 12 months of angst and chatter.   And we don't need to watch the questionable body language any longer.   Keen to see what 6 and 23 morph into

Wouldn't say it's extensive history... but he plays a style of game that is high intensity and high impact, but he will play a different game at the dockers than with us I think. Freo will not want him to roam as far from goal, so maybe that changes!

The below saw him miss bulk games;

Knee injury that saw him miss approx 6 weeks (2013, when he could only play for Casey).

Back stress in his first season (2014).

Testicular cancer (2017)

Broken collarbone (2017)

Hamstring injury (2017)

Navicular injury (2018)

For a 23 year old, this is extensive.

 


[censored] Fremantle but they’ve come out smelling roses.

Gun forwards who kick 50 goals are rare.

 

We have lost a beauty.

 

Good Luck to Jesse....but more importantly Go Dees!


Overall I think we did well. Got Hogan off with his big salary who did not want to be in Victoria as well his other issues for a first and second round pick.

It was bound to happen Dazzle ?

Gutted we have lost Jesse, but was hoping for a better pick or another player from somewhere?

  • 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.

  • GAMEDAY: Essendon

    It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?

  • PREVIEW: Essendon

    As the focus of the AFL moves exclusively to South Australia for Gather Round, the question is raised as to what are we going to get from the  Melbourne Football Club this weekend? Will it be a repeat of the slop fest of the last three weeks that have seen the team score a measly 174 points and concede 310 or will a return to the City of Churches and the scene where they performed at their best in 2024 act as a wakeup call and bring them out of their early season reverie?  Or will the sleepy Dees treat their fans to a reenactment of their lazy effort from the first Gather Round of two years ago when they allowed the Bombers to trample all over them on a soggy and wet Adelaide Oval? The two examples from above tell us how fickle form can be in football. Last year, a committed group of players turned up in Adelaide with a businesslike mindset. They had a plan, went in confidently and hard for the football and kicked winning scores against both home teams in a difficult environment for visitors. And they repeated that sort of effort later in the season when they played Essendon at the MCG.
