What

Heres the number of AFL clubs that if given the choice would prefer Patrick Cripps in their side rather than Jesse Hogan 0

if he does stay he showed yesterday where he plays his best footy. Hes always looked at home across half back using his leap/marking ability to intercept opposition kicks Hes a terrible forward and struggled as a mid under Neeld

Yes lets trade a 23 year old ruck man who we have invested 6 years in and has finally arrived and is showing all the hallmarks of being the next dominant ruck in the AFL and you wanna trade him for that lazy [censored] Yarran FMD!

Seen him play many times.

Goals in their first 13 career games Wayne Carey - 11 Jesse Hogan - 28

Because people have different ways/grades of rating players? I just want him at the MFC, hes a legit gun

He has kicked 28 goals in 13 games. He will likely kick over 40. He should win the Rising star without question.

No i rate him the level below, B+. Hes an absolute gun. A grader is reserved for the true superstars

Paul Roos made mention in his post match presser that to take the next step we need to add an A+ midfielder Perhaps the rumours are true about Prestia coming are true

Nice to see him finally roost one home from 50. Kid is a machine, Post match interview with Burgs http://www.melbournefc.com.au/video/2015-07-19/jesse-hogan-postmatch

heres the list http://www.afl.com.au/trade/free-agency Its slim pickings with most of the big guns having re-signed with their clubs

he is a B+, and thats nothing to sneeze at

Ok fine It will be a win for us as its another VFL standard player off the list

it will be a big win for us as it will be another useless spud off the list

If we did get Prestias it would mean Bernice Vince could play his twilight years as an outide midfielder and hopefully could go on for a few more years playing great footy with less wear on his body Would also free up Angus to play a bit more outside and use his elite kicking skills in space

Well if they are reading this, lets let them know we love Dion and think hes a gun and we want him at the Dees to join our rising midfield and team next season and beyond We will welcome him with open arms, and he will have the luxury of hitting a bloke called Jesse Hogan lace out the rest of his career. He will not have to do all the heave lifting as we have clearance guns in Jonesy, Viney, Vince, Tyson, Brayshaw and Vandenberg already here and a young bull named Petracca coming in 2016. Not to mention playing on the MCG every week is a little better than playing a Metricon stadium. We will also give him heaps of $$$ Cheers Mr/Mrs/Ms Prestia!

Wowowoww. Excellent Did they say if he was likely to move clubs? Any more info appreciated

So has Prestia signed with us yet? Come on I know you blokes have good sauces

Even more reason to drop Dawes

Yeah but whats the chance Prestia comes to the MFC? Sure his name has been mentioned a few times by a couple posters on Demonland that he might come to us this trade period There is probbaly nothing of substance to it though , just the usual forum murmurings

Not blaming Dawes for anything, hes just not a good player. In fact hes a liability.. But the Lions are desperate for key forwards of any variety so maybe we can get something for him.

http://www.afl.com.au/news/2015-07-12/lions-crying-out-for-a-key-forward-says-leppitsch Send them Dawes for the highest pick they will give us or for Leunberger

Yes, a very good b grader is a borderline A grader DD!

Really hope we get Prestia We arent going to land a true superstar but getting a very good B grader in Prestia would put the finishing touches on a very nice midfield, and its then up to us to develop our own young midfielders who have superstar potential ie. Petracca and Brayshaw

Probably not the weather conditions for a big forward to kick a bag But it is Jesse Hogan so anythings possible
