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. 

He'd be right at home with DeGoey, Stephenson, Sidebottom, Beames, etc

True. Far better he sign with an underperforming nonentity that would treat his return like the second coming of christ. 

It is hard to see him leaving WA and even less chance of him returning to the MFC. He was a good player for us but also very high maintenance. I would love to have his 47 goal season back but it won’t happen. 

 

If he leaves Freo i reckon the Eagles will snap him up on a nothing contract as insurance for an injury to Kennedy/Darling knowing if they get him right he's a bargain replacement for Kennedy when he retires.

Eagles are no chance of getting him.  They were not even slightly interested due to his off field issues

Not something one would have read about the Eagles 15 years ago. How times have changed.

im so happy that he didn't work out at Freo after Peter Bell's antics during the trade period. Karmas a biatch.

I'd take him back but I wouldn't give up anything for him. Makes our defensive stuff even worse. And he doesn't bring positivity to a group. 

Jess deserves the best of luck _ probably elsewhere though unfortunately.

PS - [censored] Smith is looking ultra cool - sign him up ?

Four goals yesterday.  Would be our best forward by a mile.

Was textbook Hogan really. Beating up on the weak sides. 

I'd still take him back though.

He's a gun on field e.g. Rance wss no push over. Would love to have him back for the good of both parties.  Can't see him leaving however

No one questions Jesse's ability.

IMO the issues are his body and his motivation, particularly the latter.

I hope he continues to improve over summer and comes back in good shape for 2021

But I don't want him back with us. Its simply risk/reward. 

I want a tall forward line of Weid, Jacko, and a fit Petty in 2021. Depth Brown. Note: no Tmac


Apparently his management have been meeting with a few teams, so interesting coincidence he's started to find form.

Hope we are one of them.  Come home Jesse.

People are crazy to say we dont want or need him.. come on, have they seen Weid play the last few weeks?

Here's hoping he has a huge Sunday night out in Cairns.

Indeed. Love to see him kick 8 and the heave ho to win comfortably! He could be the gift that keeps on giving to the MFC!!!

He’s an impressive BS artist if he has one eye on the exit. I watched his post match interview last week and he seemed more invested in Freo than ever before. Such is the modern player I suppose.

Would be handy if his form can drag his team over the line against the Doggies. Would be a nice little bit of poetry if Hogan kicked us into the finals.

  • 2 weeks later...

Wait until the end of 2021. Get him back in for nothing after Freo delist.  ?
 

Jesse deserves a 2nd chance at the Dees. ?

 

Probably needs a good mental therapist and some SAS training under Burgo. ???

If he's fit, id take him back even if he needs abit more TLC then other players. We would be top 4 with Jesse at his best Weed, Fritsch and Jackson little kossi unbelievable forward line

  • REPORT: West Coast

    On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

  • POSTGAME: West Coast

    Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.

  • GAMEDAY: West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?
