Tom Morris and John Ralph were discussing trades on the GF preview on Fox Footy.  Said that Mahoney and others had met with Hogan and have subsequently ruled him out.  Not much more than that.

That is very interesting, given why he left and continued problems at the Dockers. Wonder if the meeting was simply to say they investigated the possibility and he failed their due diligence.

    Well it’s a done deal then if our mate Morris said it.

    Out of courtesy to a player who spent many years at your club from the age of 17 you'd speak with him.

    It also may mean we're confident of getting Brown.

    Ultimately though, we let him go for a reason.

    “Yeah Mahones I was just wondering if you’ll have me back mate?”

    Maybe he said he is staying in Perth. Simple as that.

    It may be that the MFC has ruled out taking Hogan back. But, please, saying it's "official" because a journo made a statement is not "official". Firstly, the journo might be mistaken; secondly, the club might be playing games and just playing hard to get in order to finesse a better deal.

    Can we please reserve the use of "official" for when the words are seen and heard to be coming out of the mouths of club officials or on letterhead released by the club?

    Big supporter of Jessies and realise it is all competitive but where do Freo sit in all this. They persuaded Jessie to go back home, mindful it was an enormous and emotional decision for him with a lot of pieces in the puzzle. One of those pieces was they knew Jessie was fairly settled and happy in Melbourne. He was obviously torn between, staying or going if all the rumour of him making a decision is correct. A few years later it is a bust.

    Glad we talked to him. Talk to all the options and go with the best one that fits, which at this stage looks the Brown route.

    Hope JH does have a good run at a new club though

    No.

    He will be at the Dockers to start next season.  Wont last long though, can see him being released mid year.  Wont be in the AFL after next season.

    Surprising.   Although I suppose Jack is getting toward the end of his career 

    The discipline and structure there might be what needs

    we've already ruled ourselves out for Hogan. So why is this thread still going? Bizarre

    Maybe because others are interested in where he lands and want to discuss it. 
     

    If you are not interested then don’t come on this thread. It’s what I do when a thread doesn’t interest me.

    If ends up at Richmond will be the biggest kick in the guts for mfc supporters also a mockery of the equalisation if the afl that a triple premiership team can get 2 gun forwards after a wining a flag .. will consider walking away from the afl

    It would be so typical wouldn’t it, nurture & support him for 5 or 6 years & he ends up as a CHF in a premiership team

    Guys relax, just another rumour from a hack journo

    Hogan is done. he is massive into the gear and couldn't get his head right even back home with the support of family and friends. I've always liked the bloke but he chances of him being a good quality AFL player are almost nil.

    why do you think Freo want to get rid of him??

    • PODCAST: 2026 Season Preview

      The boys previewed the 2026 Season sharing their early impressions of the new coach, the new players, observations from preseason training, and what they've made of the new game style. They also look ahead to the season with their predictions, the players they expect to rise, their expectations for the team, and what they see as a realistic pass mark for Melbourne in 2026.

    • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      When the Demons blew their 46-point lead at Marvel Stadium in Round 20 last year, the fallout was enormous. Like an event straight out of a Shakespearean tragedy, Melbourne’s final-quarter collapse left fans reeling and the club grappling with the aftermath.

    • PREGAME: St. Kilda

      With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

    • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

      Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

    • REPORT: Richmond

      Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.
