We'll get to 800 over 8 years if Jesse wins a few Colemans :laugh:

For Freo, with Ross Lyon coaching....not much chance.

    I do just want to say that unlike nearly all players that leave Melbourne I will have a large soft spot for Hogan.

    I think he's definitely wired differently to some, who wouldn't be so concerned being away from family and friends. but he's a hugely talented and smart footballer.

    I wish him well.

    That pick swap...something afoot you reckon? Got a feeling we're not done.

    its a curiosity isnt it..as I wondered in another thread...we have days to complete pick swaps...but only until 8.30 tonight to do another deal for a player.

    The trade feels a bit underwhelming but we probably couldn't do much more seeing as Jesse was determined to return to Perth....might as well move on at least we have 2 players who should strengthen the best 22 for 2019

    What if the kid we draft at 23 is another Oliver.

    How would the deal look then?

    I have already had my meltdown and cannot work out what is going on in Hogans head. I still think this "I am homesick" twist for the playing life of an AFL footballer is ridiculous.

     

    And as you ridiculous as it may seem to you, this has always existed for some footballers. It may be ridiculous but there is a big enough body of evidence to tell you that it well and truly exists.

    According to Josh Mahoney:

    Jesse wanted to leave and his preference was Fremantle. Leave on good terms. If Melbourne played in Perth he'd be playing for us.

    "Wanted to leave" is different to wanted to go home, or am I reading too much into this?

    Not to wish injury, but wouldn't feel bad if his foot's [censored].

    Not a bad outcome; although only time will tell.

    Glad it's all over. Time to kick back with a glass of whisky and some cheese and biscuits.

    What sort?

    I think you’re reading too much into it.

    I'm disappointed because I think Jesse has talent. Thanks Jesse. I hope you don't play well against us though!

    What dippy is saying is that pick 65 is the deal we got for Kent. We then on traded that in the hogan deal.

    Thanks, but I know that and posted it earlier.

    What I was saying is that you look at all the deals to see how we went, not just one.

    • 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.

    • 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?
