Agree we are not fighting that hard at least publicly. "We want to do what is best for you", "go explore your options" line from the club is as good as saying happy enough if you go and we want to get maximum value. I don't have an issue with it but put yourself in Hogans shoes probably doesn't feel 100% wanted by our management. If we really wanted him long term we would be saying Hogan is absolutely not being traded and Hogan would have a 4 year extension on the table from us.

2nd in a club b&f shows he can consistently perform at a high level. Other failed players being mentioned on this thread were never able to do that.

I didn't see him at the event, guess he was there at some stage if he is in the clip.I was chatting to T Mac at the afterparty who said he was not there due to operation on his hip, probably left B&F early.

Add : Oscar Mcdonald . He had an operation on his Hip which is why he was not at the B&F

Got a ripping standing ovation. Was one of the nights highlights.

Just left the afterparty . BOG contenders. T Mac. Gus . Lever. And Clarry. All players in good spirits levers dance moves are Mr bean like. Hogan amongst it . Jeffy was a bit of a lonely figure. Jones getting around to every group was great to see. Very interesting to see the different Clicks amongst the playing group. Of the coaching group Jade Rawlings was a much loved figure. Plapp , Plunket and Ben Matthews also getting lots of love from the players. Max engaging with everyone. Love this club

Unlimited Johnny Walker Blue has been a definate highlight

Don't forget the pollution started with Greg " makes it up as he goes venom " Denom

Hard to find best 6 unfortunately our bottom 5-6 were some of our more senior players . Jones , Jetta ,Tyson, Lewis, Melksham, were all missing in the first half or made terrible mistakes add guys like Hannan & Spargo you can see why we got thumped. WC had 12 players who played a GF 3 years ago we are not ready but should be in 2-3 years

Our game plan is should just need to execute better this whole chaos game plan crap the media have been going on about is a load of crap

We went from Hunter to the hunted, with our two previous wins and all the sentiment wanting a Melbourne win. Didn't enter the game angry and hungry for the win the Eagles did game over

Lewis has been putrid

West coast are playing angry after the last two losses to us over there. We have not stood up at all. Struggling to find a good player. Viney tried in the second quarter Tmac stood up in the first apart from that horrible

Jkh started well. Tackling with intent and looks quick .

Love how every player in our team has the ability to be quiet then step up when required and get the job done

Spargo was awesome

haha classic Mazer

Salem and T Mav are excused I expect them to be more accurate as they usually are. ANB and Trac have been awful shots at goal all year I have zero confidence in the lining up a set shot at goal.

Can't remember so many smothers by us in a game was a great sign of our intent

Viney 9 tackles what a skipper

Its not even 10am and I feel like i'm going to vomit. Imagine how the players feel!!!

sound advice binman.

the duke is a pretty pro melbourne pub, lots of screens and decent atmosphere https://dukeofwellington.com.au/sports/

I think it has more to do with Hannan playing Casey at the weekend and his load being managed. He is a definate in for mine for either JKH or Spargo tough call on who out of those two stays in.

Your right on the commentators. I hadn't watched the YouTube clips just going off memory of the old VHS tape I wore out. Like you one of my favourite days at the footy. I was 9 years old and the noise and excitement that day is unforgettable
