I want Hogan to stay.

Nat Fyfe is the reigning Brownlow medalist though.

Fyfe at Melbourne would be akin to the impact of Dangerfield at Geelong.

Both Hibberd and Melksham have had a year out of footy but they're experienced best 22 footballers that will add to our half back and on-ball brigade. Depth within the list is looking better all the time.

He could be in the 'trade gun.' Has some worth as a bottom 6/fringe player.

Fyfe is a different cat so heading off to the Gold Coast is well within his scope. He's also a footy nut so getting to Victoria might be his aim. If that's the case, the implications of picks and subsequent hand-offs will be complicated. But we're getting used to it.

Freo will need currency to lure those blokes. I think Fyfe is a real chance of going to Gold Coast.

One thing's for sure and that is Freo footy club has a bad smell coming out of it right now. I think 'Ross the Boss' might infact be 'Ross the toss'. Ed: Oh, and by the way, after years of torment from Freo supporters I'm making every second of their shitty season count.

So it was just reported here on 7 news break in Perf that St Kilda and Essendon are "considering making a play for Nat Fyfe."

Clearly the reason Sylvia didn't fire a shot at the Dockers.

Nah, that's just the pubs.

Next Captain? I don't think that'll be the case at all. Everyone thought he was a shoe-in for it last year but Mundy took it on. I think Fyfe passed on it for a reason. He's not as heavily invested in Fremantle as people may think.

Care to elaborate on Perth's 'inadequacies'?

It's 'P Diddy's' stock reply to go for the GF analogy on any topic. Does get boring after a while.

Fuggit.

Two weeks down to one with an early plea. Dont suppose it'd be worth the challenge.

Have you got a man-bun?

Okay, let's give him a break but instead focus solely on the umpires inability to adjudicate it. The last thing we want to see is the sport become another 'Soccer-like' penalty seeking theatrics. I want to see players bullocking away from contests when tackles are applied. Umps need to start calling it out before the year is out.

Nick Reiwoldt-esque the way he covered ground and snagged goals today. Fair comparison?

If Leppa is worth his salt as a coach he'd give him a clip himself and tell him to cut that [censored] out.

People getting stuck into him via Twitter.

Wut?

I'll second that solution.

I don't know whether you guys got the segment in Vic but I just watched it here in Perf. Said that his contract is not about money but rather team success, J Browns comments are no more than a little love for his fellow key forwards and Ross Lyons missus cooks a wicked lamb roast. Also, Lachie Reid who interviewed is a passionate Dee's fan who I've had the pleasure of chatting to a couple of times at functions. Apparently Hogan was sitting in cattle class (a sure sign MFC know he's going) but Lachie pulled some strings (ch10 budget strings I'd say) and managed to get Hoges upgraded to Business class. Oh, almost forgot... He also donated some bone to Nat Fyfes leg injury.

Imagine not having Hogan out there today? Would've been an annihilation.
