I think Freo supporters will be crying more at Jesse's performance. They gave us pick 6 for Hogan and traded him for pick 54.

    I remember seeing Jesse in his first year and he was taking Carey like pack marks back then. Unique talent

    I'm genuinely pleased that he's come through such a lot and is at this point. Always had it in him.

    Absolutely wrapped for him. Reaching his potential which is massive.

    Can’t recall seeing a negative comment about Hogan on here in a long time. I would think it’s quite unique that so many supporters from his ex team would have such a soft spot for him. I know I do.

    BBO, when he's on, there's no one who read the ball in flight as well as Jesse. Hope that helps

    It would if he was wearing red and blue RTG !!

    He had a really horrible run when he was with us. Losing his dad and getting cancer. Doesn’t get much worse for a 21 year old. 
    Seeing him succeed now is really nice to see. Really can’t see how you’d begrudge him.

    Exactly. Some people don’t come back from that let alone do what Jesse is doing.

    pre-2021 premiership I think supporters thought differently about ex-players. I know I did. I typically saw them as traitors. It's different now.

    That 50 was created by the umpires in the first half because a player gave the ball to the wrong person. Then when asking who to give it to they pay the 50 for time wasting.

    Man I hate that rule. Surely the umpire has to make sure he’s heard before giving a fifty??

    Exactly! It isn’t the players fault if they can’t hear the umpire

    • REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

    • CASEY: Essendon

      Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

    • PREGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

      The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
