Can we now close this thread? Castigation and innuendo serve little purpose and Jesse, the FD/MFC and our success may still warrant our respect? 

Maybe we can all say our final goodbyes before the thread is closed for good?

    Bumped into the big fella today, still looked unhappy. Maybe it wasn’t us after all. 

    ET you must get that a lot. Good to see you haven't taken it too personally. :)

    I would like to suggest that those asking for a thread to be closed be banned for 1 month. If the thread is going after the month ban them for life. 

    There are too many killjoys in life, don't come here if you don't like it. It is not compulsory.

    They got rid of the high mark on that bag over Robbo - I think when one guy landed on his head.

    Now they have the "high ball" from the machine.  Could still be Haymes Harmes High-ball

    I was at that game and he was completely knocked out. Looked pretty serious actually. He and the club were lucky it was not more serious.

    File under 'what were they thinking'and/or 'what could go wrong???'

    I've long-wondered what the insurance policy is like for the game-break entertainment.

    When that guy fell on his head and not much was said, the following week it was called something else, it was conspicuous to say the least. 

    Even the hamstring puller (he has to be a Demonlander, right?), did he charge someone for his injury? Or did he sign a release prior to running?

    Maybe I'm too used to dealing with finances in my business. :P

    It was more of an inference based on my observations. 

    ET I used the same gag about bumming a dart off of him, so deleted it.

    For the next couple of years it is inevitable that here will be a Hogan thread either here or on the main board (which is where it will pop up as the season gets underway).    No point in closing this till then.

    Dare I say it will be similar to having a continuous WATTS thread!!!

    The Dockers released an ‘Jesse Hogan membership cards’ email to supporters today, perhaps time to close this thread.

    At the end of the day he was paid 900k this year and he stated that the fact that he had a Freo offer for next year was weighing on his mind. That's not cool whichever way you look at it. Our highest paid player did not have his sole focus on MFC. I know he is a gun, and he will be a superstar. 900K should be enough to buy loyalty and undivided focus. 

    And for anyone who shoots off the "go home factor". I am pretty sure Jesse said his Dad wanted him to stay at Melbourne. Well that's what he said before signing last time. All things considered I think he is a bit of a [censored] and a disloyal one at that.

    So while we trying our best to win our first flag in a generation with a realistic attempt Jesse has eyes elsewhere.

    On a selfish level, im curious to see how many pages we can get up to over the course of his career.

    Missing friends in Melbourne. Freo have said he is able to be in Melbourne midweek on compassionate grounds. Had a coffee & a dart with Goodwin, discussed coming home to Melbourne if a deal could be worked out

    • NON-MFC: Round 12

      Round 12 kicks off with the Brisbane hosting Essendon at the Gabba as the Lions aim to solidify their top-two position against an injury-hit Bombers side seeking to maintain momentum after a win over Richmond. On Friday night it's a blockbuster at the G as the Magpies look to extend their top of the table winning streak while the Hawks strive to bounce back from a couple of recent defeats and stay in contention for the Top 4. On Saturday the Suns, buoyed by 3 wins on the trot, face the Dockers in a clash crucial for both teams' aspirations this season. The Suns want to solidify their Top 4 standing whilst the Dockers will be desperate to break into the 8.

    • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      The media has performed a complete reversal in its coverage of the Melbourne Football Club over the past month and a half. Having endured intense criticism from all quarters in the press, which continually identified new avenues for scrutiny of every aspect, both on and off the field, and prematurely speculated about the departures of coaches, players, officials, and various employees from a club that lost its first five matches and appeared out of finals contention, the narrative has suddenly shifted to one of unbridled optimism.  The Demons have won five of their last six matches, positioning themselves just one game (and a considerable amount of percentage) outside the top eight at the halfway mark of the season. They still trail the primary contenders and remain far from assured of a finals berth.

    • REPORT: Sydney

      A few weeks ago, I visited a fellow Melbourne Football Club supporter in hospital, and our conversation inevitably shifted from his health diagnosis to the well-being of our football team. Like him, Melbourne had faced challenges in recent months, but an intervention - in his case, surgery, and in the team's case, a change in game style - had brought about much improvement.  The team's professionals had altered its game style from a pedestrian and slow-moving approach, which yielded an average of merely 60 points for five winless games, to a faster and more direct style. This shift led to three consecutive wins and a strong competitive effort in the fourth game, albeit with a tired finish against Hawthorn, a strong premiership contender.  As we discussed our team's recent health improvement, I shared my observations on the changes within the team, including the refreshed style, the introduction of new young talent, such as rising stars Caleb Windsor, Harvey Langford, and Xavier Lindsay, and the rebranding of Kozzy Pickett from a small forward to a midfield machine who can still get among the goals. I also highlighted the dominance of captain Max Gawn in the ruck and the resurgence in form in a big way of midfield superstars Christian Petracca and Clayton Oliver.
