Given it’s officially the crazy season, I’ll put forward that the MFC look for a Croad like return for our prodigal son, Jess “the HULK” Hogan...

maybe not this year... or even next year but then bring him home...

    Jesse was much loved. It’s a fair call but wildly optimistic.   It will depend on his family and his heart ... and his body.  I worry that he is injury prone and the footy world may not ever see him at his very very best.

    Oh FFS, just what we need, the constant speculation of his off field behaviour and the go home factor all over again.

    ‘Basil’ (as he’s known as over here) is loving being back in the west close to family and friends, won’t happen, ever.

    I was over in Perth for work about a month ago and spoke to several freo supporters. None of them are very impressed with Hogan. They don’t hold high hopes of him being a consistent performer.

    He left us with a navicular problem and it derailed his season.

    They are a shocking injury and have ended careers.

    He reinjured it as well in the game against us, hopefully he gets it right, hate seeing players careers ruined by injury

    With you on this, and I bet theres plenty of other Demon supporters whod love to bring him back 'home' to the MFC.

    No idea if its realistic or not and how hes liking being back in Perth but geez it would be nice to get him.

    His season so far has been bog ordinary.

    I live in Perth now and that is the consensus from the Freo people I speak to. Supporters feel they have been  duped again after McCarthy and brought home another lemon. So far this season he has been very ordinary and I am sure they would be happy to pass the problem child back to us.

    It's not Hogan we miss, it's what he does. He ain't coming back whether he wants to or not, but there are a couple of options in the free agent market this year. Needs to be our main focus this offseason.

    That's a stupid comment. We don't miss hogan, just everything that he offered, which we haven't looked close to replacing.

    Well all I can say is our forward line has been shizen since he left. Draw what cinclusions you want.

    In order of preference (for mine anyway), J.Cameron, Casboult, Daniher.

    That is a fact, no doubt

    Completely stagnated

    Cameron would be awesome - will never come to us, probably Collingwood or even Carlton or Essendon.

    Daniher and Casboult? No [censored] way!! If the club signed either of those two hacks I would be done.

    • AFLW REPORT: Gold Coast

      The forecast said wind. The ladder said mismatch. The scoreboard said obliteration. Melbourne didn’t just beat Gold Coast — they dismantled them: 13.15 (93) to 0.6 (6). An 87-point obliteration, the Suns held goalless, and the Demons delivering their second-highest winning margin and third-highest score in AFLW history.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #28 Will Verrall

      It was a tough ask for him to break through as a 199cm ruckman in the shadow of an all-time great in that position who is also the club captain. He had some good days at Casey but was unable to progress and was delisted at the end of the season.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #29 Tom Campbell

      The 33-year-old Campbell has yet to play AFL football for Melbourne, but his Casey form has been strong and he has been retained as a ready-made ruck depth option who is widely regarded as someone who is excellent for the culture of the club.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #30 Harry Sharp 

      The Demons acquired an interesting player in Sharp, who narrowly missed securing a spot in the Lions’ premiership team last year. The 22-year-old medium forward played in the opening round this season and ended up with 18 senior games, although he was substituted in or out in for ten of those matches. He demonstrated glimpses of form, but ultimately ended the year on the margins of the team.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #31 Bayley Fritsch

      Worked his way back after a slow start and a further slump in form going into the midseason but became a solid contributor for the club in the latter half of 2025. Closing in on 300 goals for the club.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Gold Coast

      On Friday, the Demons return to our Casey Fields fortress where they have a 77% win rate. The scent of September is in the air and the struggling Suns are on the horizon. The Cranbourne weather forecast? Ominous, like the match itself: a strong chance of carnage. Let’s be honest, last week’s first half against the West Coast was a training drill but we dropped our guard in the final quarter. While this match is a mismatch on paper — second versus seventeenth — football is won in the wind, the contests, and the moments.
