Jaded No More

I watched most games this weekend Hogan may not have been the absolute standout, but he has been consistently excellent in one of the toughest roles in one of the poorest midfield teams. How he hasn't earnt a nomination thus far is beyond a joke. He's in better form than some veterans going around.

Can confirm that selectors are idiots

His hair is terrible. Does that help reduce the love? Get a haircut Jesse, sick of your shenanigans I'm sorry Jesse, I don't mean it, I love you so much. Your hair is fine.

Ugh. I spit at that image.

I want him to kick 10 against Carlton. Otherwise he's dead to me. Just kidding. I love you Jesse. Don't ever leave me.

Nailed it!

Awesome thanks for posting this Haven't seen much of the match and I feel these are the only 2 minutes worth watching

It depends if there's wine at the end of the line

On the plus side I have excellent feet.

Always happy to take one for the team!

Fourth quarter mark and goal.... orgasmic stuff!

He played around plenty of NQR talls at Carlton according to my Carlton supporting friends. They are livid that they threw him away for nothing. Makes it just that much sweeter.

Relax, we've got this.

Needs to tidy his kicking. Otherwise he's awesome.

It's because he's no good. *KEEP A LID ON IT*

A bottle of wine then. Low fat, natural grape sugar. Everybody wins.

Back to the chocolate block for me then!

There's a lot to be said about the character of a guy who chooses money over family.

Clark 2.0 No thanks.

Haha this is so good. And you captured me so perfectly, since despite vowing that I won't watch our game while I'm away, I just paid $15 so I can watch it on my last day in Thailand. Seriously, it better not rain!

Agreed. Was our best last night. He is great!

Will never forget that 9 goal half against Collingwood. Awesome seeing Wiz, Davey & Robbo out on the field. Those were the days.... Brad Miller is still in mint condition

Yes he can kick. Sometimes he fluffs it, and he isn't a perfect user of the footy. But for a lock down defender, his kick is adequate. The problem is that he's being asked to clear the ball out of defence and provide run. This should not be his role, and this comes down to us not having enough skills at half back to run the footy out. Most FBs in the competition do not often drive the ball forward, it's simply not their role. That McDonald can take on his opponent and provide us with run because he is so fit and has such great endurance is just a bonus. I'm sure his kicking can and will improve over time, but the thing he has that you can't teach, is a defensive nous. He is a brilliant defender!

No he isn't. He's a 21 year old key defender who has done an amazing job every week, in one of the most under seiged backlines going around, who takes on and beats the best defender every single week, and who creates countless attacks the other way. Yes his kicking isn't the best, but he is an A grade defender, which is his primary role! And as I said before, anyone who goes every single week like I do, will note that he is clearly struggling with that corked thigh he got earlier this year. He gets work done at every break, and his running is completely compromised. Not to mention he's getting rested a lot more during games than he was before.

It's a good day at the MFC when Tom McDonald is our biggest problem.
