    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

    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.

    • GAMEDAY: Richmond

      It's Game Day and the Demons return to the MCG to face the Tigers in their annual Blockbuster on ANZAC Eve for the 10th time. The Dees will be desperate to reignite their stuttering 2025 campaign and claim just their second win of the season. Can the Demons dig deep and find that ANZAC Spirit to snatch back to back wins?

    • PREVIEW: Richmond

      A few years ago, the Melbourne Football Club produced a documentary about the decade in which it rose from its dystopic purgatory of regular thrashings to the euphoria of a premiership victory. That entire period could have been compressed in a fast motion version of the 2025 season to date as the Demons went from embarrassing basket case to glorious winner in an unexpected victory over the Dockers last Saturday. They transformed in a single week from a team that put in a pedestrian effort of predictably kicking the ball long down the line into attack that made a very ordinary Bombers outfit look like worldbeaters into a slick, fast moving side with urgency and a willingness to handball and create play with shorter kicks and by changing angles to generate an element of chaos that yielded six goals in each of the opening quarters against Freo.

    • NON-MFC: Round 07

      Round 7 gets underway in iconic fashion with the traditional ANZAC Day blockbuster. The high-flying Magpies will be looking to solidify their spot atop the ladder, while the Bombers are desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top eight. Later that evening, Fremantle will be out to redeem themselves after a disappointing loss to the Demons, facing a hungry Adelaide side with eyes firmly set on breaking into the top four. Saturday serves up a triple-header of footy action. The Lions will be looking to consolidate their Top 2 spot as they head to Marvel Stadium to clash with the Saints. Over in Adelaide, Port Adelaide will be strong favourites at home against a struggling North Melbourne. The day wraps up with a fiery encounter in Canberra, where the Giants and Bulldogs renew their bitter rivalry. Sunday’s schedule kicks off with the Suns aiming to bounce back from their shock defeat to Richmond, taking on the out of form Swans.Then the Blues will be out to claim a major scalp when they battle the Cats at the MCG. The round finishes with a less-than-thrilling affair between Hawthorn and West Coast at Marvel. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Fremantle

      For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

    • CASEY: UWS Giants

      The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

    • PREGAME: Richmond

      The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?
