We haven't come so far yet as to not need this man next year.  One more, final serviceable year please.

On another random note and I would appreciate if a fellow d-lander could clear this up for me:  Freo today reported as offering no. 11 pick and future second rounder for Hogan.  Sam Maclure reports this is about to fall thru. 

 I thought we were seeking Freo and Brisbanes 5 and 6 picks with all that Lachie Neale hoo haa thrown in.  Anyway, if the deal falls through and he stays next year in the final year of his contract is he then able to leave if he so wishes and we receive nothing?

So, 5/6 sounds fair for a talent like him at 23 years of age or whatever he is.  But Freo by saying 11 and future second rounder don't value him as much as we (which is always the norm when trading important players) .   so my questions:  Might Hogan say F.U. Freo? If deal falls thru is it likely we stitch him up for another couple?  Have Freo been advised his foots not right and thus backing off on a picks 5/6 trade?  Or is this just normal hardball negotiation where the two sides will meet in the middle?

I don't know wtf I am asking?  Can someone please just tell me his foot is alright, he will sign for us another 2-3 years and be the superstar that we have hoped for?  Or could someone please tell me that we will get two picks in the top 10.  Someone tell me something that gives me hope.  Please.  If you don't mind and have the time.  

Had a reasonable year without starring, age is catching up with him and he will struggle to stay in the side if the West Coast game is anything to go by.

I think you would be best to take this to the highly speculative Jesse Hogan thread. There are no shortages of opinion there for what is really going on with Jesse

thanks mate.  as ridiculous as it sounds I couldnt find the jese hogan thread and assumed that their had to be one.  Im a bit of an online dud so Ive clearly ballsed something up.  


Father time has Lewis in his sights. I hope Lewey gets through next year without any injuries or form issues and can bow out of league footy with his legacy intact.

Has been very handy, and am thankful his experience  has rubbed off on our next generation of players.

Good year filling in for Lever. Don’t know what role he will have next year, but his kicking is still in our top few which is eye opening but also a testament to the bloke’s longevity.

Stated he's definitely playing on.  Will be a fascinating story in 2019.

He was both good and horrible at times in 2018, with a fair bit more good than horrible.  Suspect the ratio is swinging.

  • PREVIEW: Carlton

    Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.

  • REPORT: North Melbourne

    I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

  • CASEY: Werribee

    The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

  • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

    The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
