We’ve all seen the lack of connection between our midfield and forwards the last 2 years. Any chance Jesse had a reason to be upset, and actually helped cover over that glaring issue during his time at the club? I’d love him back. We need natural competitors with skills. yes, and plus he had a huge engine as a runner. Quote

Anyone since Carl Ditterich? I appreciate that it happens rarely across the competition, although there have been some notable exceptions, such as G Ablett Jr, Paul Salmon, John Barnes and Trent Croad. But it's rare and, I suspect a guide to suggest that it won't happen this time, either. Crackers Keanan Quote
Bring-Back-Powell 15,557 Posted August 28, 2020 Posted August 28, 2020 Looks extremely out of shape at the moment. Longmuir was less than complimentary in his assessment of Hogan at the moment and his scratch match form. Quote
Sir Why You Little 37,462 Posted August 28, 2020 Posted August 28, 2020 Bottom Line Jesse has loads of talent, but he doesn’t want to play at the top level enough. We have seen the best of his career 2 Quote
Ted Lasso 19,586 Posted September 8, 2020 Posted September 8, 2020 Not sure i'd take Jesse back, great bloke, loads of talent, but we aren't in a position, leadership wise to get the best out of someone like that. Quote
Kev 10,930 Posted September 8, 2020 Posted September 8, 2020 (edited) I'd take him back. Great when the ball is in his hands. Nice kick, great turning ark, difficult to tackle, big ego. He will always be upset with others not giving him the ball and can get lost for awhile. I think he would try hard with us if given a chance. We dealt with the many issue he had fairly and sympathetically. Actually I think we need him. Our forward line would be the WA boys, Pickett, Jackson, Hogan. Hogan could settle them in to MFC so they don't get homesick and want to return west. Something like, the grass isn't greener or better support here, etcetera. PS. I'd also take back Watts. I'm invested in the players that we go through. Watty would help Gawn out. B, nearly A graders both of them. Edited September 8, 2020 by kev martin 4 Quote

You guys are like the forgiving partners of a problem gambler who keeps promising to quit. Jessie has been in the headlines again & again & barely played a game since he left us.

Bring-Back-Powell 15,557 Posted September 9, 2020 Posted September 9, 2020 I chop and change: I want him back when we're playing like a dumpster fire and battling to kick 4 goals a game against bottom 5 garbage sides. I don't want him when we're up and about and look like a half decent side with a bit of forward potency - eg - 100 points V's Collingwood. Quote

B, nearly A graders both of them. I agree with this - going after/inviting Hoges back. He treated him well and we know what his best is capable of. T.Mac out, Hoges in. He will take the pressure off Weides & Sky Walker and allow them to develop. Also an interesting call with Watts. He loves /loved the MFC. If he was here now he would still be one of our best kicks. I except he's soft but an enormous talent. Both these guys would come cheap (Hoges not so much). We then need to draft quick outsider runners - with great kicking skills. 1 Quote
Rab D Nesbitt 8,966 Posted September 9, 2020 Posted September 9, 2020 The only synergy between him and Collingwood is the regularity that both manage to create headlines off the field. I think he would crumble under the expectations of the magpie army. Quote
