Jesse Hogan(mini-draft)- priority for us

🥰 Love BigFooty? Join now for free.

If I was a young player, I would walk out on Melbourne without hesitation as soon as my first contract was up. It is in their best career interests to desert that pathetic rabble of a club. I feel sorry for Port and the Bulldogs. These clubs are in no-man's land, and I'm not sure how they are going to try and get back to being competitive while GC, GWS and Melbourne are around.

Melbourne must be the only club where the supporters are more interested in the off-season than the normal season. Every year they start crapping on about how exciting their young list is going to be, and how they've picked "the next Nick Riewoldt" and now the "next Jonathon Brown". Then when the actual football season starts, they realise how shit they are after about Rd 1 or Rd 2, and wait with anticipation for the next draft.

People crap on about Carlton and Collingwood, but Melbourne are easily my most disliked team. I hope they fester at the bottom of the ladder for a long time, and they will if they hang on to Neeld who is probably the worst coach in the comp. I can't believe their fans buy into him. Damian Drum mk2.

On topic though, are there any mature age forwards ala Tom Lee in the SANFL or VFL going around that would be worth a late ND or rookie pick?

Of course, but it's a different sort of hate :cool: The eagles are like the anti-Melbourne, they are a very well run organisation which can be extremely annoying cos they never seem to do much wrong and apart from derby losses and dud picks occasionally there's not much to rib them on. Even Swift is gone now :eek:. Hopefully we beat them in a (grand) final next year.
 
I thought this thread would have been closed by now. Why be haters people?

Nothing wrong with just a little hate - certainly for the wee-girls and the Melb hand-out tanking club
 
lol, more than a bit of hate here. Especially towards the Demons and CC/ Schwab. It's like being upset at the ex's new boyfriend.

Not really. Your ex's new boyfriend has absolutely zero impact on your own life, whereas our club is stuck in the same enclosed system as the Demons and they've been cheating that system for years.

Hogan mentioned in his presser that he likes the way Pavlich and Brown go about it. Shame that he can't learn from the first of the two.
 
Sure looks thrilled to be at Melbourne.

Can Jesse put together a contract like what Tippett did?

Clause: if I want out you guys receive a second rounder off a club of my choice.

You mean like Buckley did when he agreed to be drafted by Brisbane with the proviso that at the end of his 2-3 years he goes to Collingwood, because that's the team he always loved as a little boy ?

The AFL knew about that one too .

But they have got Morton to replace him!
 
Article on afl.com says that Mitch Clark has been given the job to take Jesse Hogan under his wing. The kid is doomed.
