Forget the fairytale return, the coach was apparently keen to see the back of him two years ago given his extra curricular activities! Made Watts look like a choir boy!

 

Problem is that there are probably several clubs that would pay more for Jesse than we would.

But perhaps we are hos destination club ?

I think there is a slightly better chance of him returning than there is on me pulling on the boots in 2021. 

Ugg boots, Mr Old?

If we dont get Brown, then Jesse would be a handy key forward. 
 

We would want to be buying him cheap.  

Future 3rd round 2021 pick. 

Obvious challenges and issues and needs to overcome the mental down times.  
?

Jesse knows the players

The players know Jesse

There is no Go Home Factor anymore

My hand up too.

Subject to SONS's bolded words.

A change and back to the future is what he needs

Our players/coachs' should do that SMS thing (text to the unwashed) to say hello

Offer Freo nexts years first round pick and Brayshaw. That’ll spark there interest 

It would spark some reflux for me if we offered that.

Yeh let’s keep playing it safe, it’s working so well for us

Freo have been burnt bad. He clearly can’t get his head right to play at the level even with family and friends around. 

are you guys for real that you think we should go for him?!?

Never should have gone back to WA.

I’m going glass half full and he can take Harley’s spot on the high-risk-high-reward list.  This could be our Trent Croad moment.

Yeh, lets give up the farm for a broken player. Glad you're not working for the club!


Hogan is reportedly on an amount in excess of $900k per year with a contract going till the end of 2021.

He's Freo's T Mac

Hard to make those numbers work for any suitor unless Freo stumps up around half.

Would Hogan move on a one year deal or would he want 2 or 3?

The role of a coach is to get all the different personalities to work together. They won’t all be robots. They just need to commit to what the team needs.

Jesse will be advised that this is it for him. He either makes it work or he’s just another waste of talent. 

Get him back and see what he can do. He doesn’t need to be a superstar, just a contributor. He’d make us harder to beat, and as a supporter that’s all I need.

Your offer for him was more than we got for him in the first place, which is vomit inducing considering he was in better nick at the end of 2018 than he is now.

I think a lot less will spark their interest. A 3rd rounder should be enough to get the conversation started.

I like the romance of Jesse coming back to play for us but I just can't see it happening. It sounds like he had a myriad of issues while he was with us and we gave him a gentle nudge out the door in 2018. Looking from the outside, those issues have only gotten worse with Jesse not only suffering a foot injury that forced him to miss a large chunk of footy, but having serious mental health issues that took him out of the game for a while as well.  Now after years of chasing him, freo are pushing him out the door with one year left to go on his initial contract. That's screaming red flags for me.

I would say his value has dropped dramatically and if there is a club interested in him, they won't be giving up a first round pick.

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

  • CASEY: Frankston

    The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.
