No chances? Really? He had like 4 incidents in his two years plus however many we don't know about.
And he openly apologised when he left. What more do you need?
Bell looks less than impressed about this... when I take into account Jesse's effusively apologetic statement to the fans I'm getting the overwhelming gut feeling that Jesse and his management have not acted in good faith here.
May have bent the club over with the mental health card and offered the club a trade me or watch me sit the year out and burn the TPP.

Bell’s an idiot.
They tried to play hard ball with Hogan. It backfired. He knows Key forwards are worth their weight in gold. This trade period hard to come by for forwards and Hogan took it.

It's not the Hogan trade that's so upsetting it's the long list of the stuffed trades .Season after season.
From McLeod, Bell, Clement right through to Hogan, Bennell and McCarthy . Stuff ups.

Not having a dig but I dont understand what you're saying at all here... it seems to me that Hogan wanted out and we couldnt have been more accomodating in facilitating that?

I hope he does, the usual suspects will still say it was the right move to get rid of him though. You know, kulcha

Whether the blame is on Bell, Rosich, Ross whoever its all irrelevant now. He was the last of the black sheep at the club. Yeah the ROI is trash but what's done is done.
Based on last years progression mainly without Jesse its onwards and upwards from here.

Maybe not an idiot but he possibly does have a bad case of small man syndrome.

Problem there is we would have triggered an extension clause and we would have had the bloke for another 2 or 3 seasons. Just rotting.
My take is we paid too much for the bloke. But, cognisant of the risk, we gave him a contract that was all about performance with an extension clause that presumably would have benefited both parties; ie, if Hoges was playing well, he gets to stay and we get a bloke who is playing well. He didn't perform, so we killed the contract before it got good for Hogan (ie, the extension trigger).
We gambled and we lost, but this time we hedged our bets and minimised the real damage.
People gamble on flakey power forwards. They are the main source of football hope.
I'd rather we weren't so keen on rolling the dice, but I would be lying if I didn't get a little giddy and excited when we snagged the bloke.
That’s double what he played there this season, and it seemed the sky was falling in when he played there, the rest of the team would have to improve a lot

**** me. Mental illness DOES cause poor behaviour and behavioural choices. It can be all-pervasive and seriously impede sound judgement. Not in all cases, but in many.
It doesn’t discriminate between spoilt tossers, white collar workers, politicians, forklift drivers, farmers, whoever...
You have continually dismissed his mental illness as an excuse or a front. It’s not.
If the club moved him on solely because of his mental health issues, that is an absolute disgrace, and they should drown in a bucket of their own shame.
There’s clearly A LOT more at play, and his mental health would just be a part of why the decision was made. Maybe his poor mental health is a large part of the reason surrounding his poor choices, but I would hope that this decision has been made in conjunction with (more than one) psychologists and social workers, mapping out a plan that has most chance of helping him in the long run.
Moving him on is clearly the best decision for both Jesse and the club. I hope, for his sake, he can get his life on track and deal with his issues. My gut feeling is it’ll be really really hard, but mental illness is real, it’s not an excuse.
Sometimes a person’s well-being comes down to more than pick 54 in a footy draft.
I dont.
FWIW i was in the sauna with him and Brayshaw and they both used the same drink bottle.
Hes highly paid and respected. He is living the dream.

Based on?
Bell came out and said he had done his due diligence and they wouldn't be taking him. Clearly got over ruled by someone else at the club. We should be grateful GWS have taken him. Bell and JLo are the best things to happen to Freo.

It was only Rendell saying Freo should trade Cerra. I don't think there is any other rumours
