  • Whispering_Jack changed the title to Jesse Hogan
  • 1 year later...

Enough water under the bridge, time heals all wounds etc, He's out of contract this year, and the most realistically gettable of the power forwards out there. Personally think he'd be great for us.

I think he’s finally found his feet up there and will become a true star of the game. Not sure he’d put that at risk to change everything again. 


Throw a bunch of spare salary cap money at him and see if we can land him. 

Would love to see him back (imagine him and JVR in the same forward line).

Equally I don't mind him being at the Giants and hope he continues to go well for them - just not against us!

Playing good footy Jesse. Looks to have his body right.

Would have him back in a heartbeat but it seems more sensible for him to stay where he is. 

 

One of my favorite players when at Mfc.

Still have a soft spot for him with all he went through.

Great to see him firing.

Just have a poor one V us please Jesse.

Hogan looks happy and settled at GWS, can't see him going anywhere.

Not wrong and I wish him well, but between Brown, Tmac and Brayshaw salary we have a lot of change to throw around. Timing is good. GWS has alot of players to sign and a key defender that will command the mint in the near future.

And I thought the club left things respectfully with him, no bad blood etc. We were more cut up.

I wouldn't be surprised if he's an AA this year. His from since the second half of last season has been great.

Kudos to him for getting his career back together.

yep indeedy

We were offered him by Freo when he left, they’d have taken peanuts. Jesse wanted to come back. Club said no due to his off field issues, probably understandably at the time. God we could do with him at the moment though!


a real chance at the coleman this year

the penny has finally dropped after 11 years

he has done well the last 2 years, just injury curtailed him

Good for him - very happy he’s in a better place and playing good football.

Credit to the Giants and their program; people very rarely turn things around by themselves.

he’s been decent the last couple but could kick 70 this year

a lot more than injuries impacted his performances over the years

Never heard this reported at the time…I thought he wanted a fresh start in a non football state?

he had a meeting with mahoney and the football dept

the rumour mill has it that they asked him if he was prepared to give up the grog, and he said no

hence we landed sideshow bob and won a premiership instead

Not so much the penny dropping, but more the fact that he has a midfield that knows how to deliver the ball.  His belief in himself has skyrocketed and it shows!!

he’s had good midfields before but he’s got his head right finally. mentality is key to pro sport

Agree with the last statement but the last 2 years it was purely injury, his headspace was great and his output was fantastic if he wasnt injured.

Hes loving his footy and really am happy for him. Our family was devestated when he left the Dees, just glad hes still playing!

  • PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

    With both sides precariously positioned ahead of the run home to the finals, only one team involved in Sunday’s clash at the Adelaide Oval between the Power and the Demons will remain a contender when it’s over.  On current form, that one team has to be Melbourne which narrowly missed out on defeating the competition’s power house Collingwood on King's Birthday and also recently overpowered both 2024 Grand Finalists. Conversely, Port Adelaide snapped out of a four-game losing streak with a win against the Giants in Canberra. Although they will be rejuvenated following that victory, their performances during that run of losses were sub par and resulted in some embarrassing blow out defeats.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

  • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

    The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: Collingwood

    Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.
