Hogan is playing a perfect CHF game

He is great to watch when on

He and Curnow remind me how a strong marking fwd is so important.

    Bagging the opposition on a banner is not something you see these days, certainly not with our Club anyways. But this happened today…

    I usually like analysing the game, looking for what is causing teams to rise and/or fall. But I m going for a 'big call'. The Dees would be nearly unstoppable if we had Jesse Hogan still with us. I still love watching him. His work rate and forward craft today v the Bombers has been a tutorial in forward play. 

    If you mean adding him to our existing team, then I agree. He’s been excellent for GWS, arguably not a whole lot better than he was in 2015, but he set a high bar early. 
    I still think we’ve been much better off and +1 trophy because of his departure though. We’re not having much success in recent years without May.

    What is happening right now to Essendon is going to bring the footy world together.

    A victimless crime.

    What's going on with the Dons?

    Imagine getting pumped by 100 points by a team even on points when a top 8 spot is up for grabs. Dons pulled a heart muscle?

    I hope Essendon aren't having an after match function with supporters 

    Yeah, they are. It obviously started at 5, with most of the players in attendance.

    Liked this from Bomberblitz....

    Some said in the lead up, it’s correct to play Phillips, instead of Bryan because he’s more finals ready, and that has to be a consideration now. LOL

    Hope it's not us tomorrow

    I have a big bombers supporting old girlfriend in Melbourne, and I live overseas. 

    Would this be a good time to just happen to email to see how she is, and how the footy's going? 😁

    One of my best mates is an Essendon supporter. He said this loss has ruined all the great progress they’ve made this year.

    • 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?

    • FEATURE: 1925

      A hundred years ago today, on 2 May 1925, Melbourne kicked off the new season with a 47 point victory over St Kilda to take top place on the VFL ladder after the opening round of the new season.  Top place was a relatively unknown position for the team then known as the “Fuchsias.” They had finished last in 1923 and rose by only one place in the following year although the final home and away round heralded a promise of things to come when they surprised the eventual premiers Essendon. That victory set the stage for more improvement and it came rapidly. In this series, I will tell the story of how the 1925 season unfolded for the Melbourne Football Club and how it made the VFL finals for the first time in a decade on the way to the ultimate triumph a year later.
