He looks great. The entire mini draft was a joke though. Melbourne happily gave up picks knowing they'd suck for another year without help coming in and get another great pick as well as getting Hogan.

He's an absolute gun.
All four players taken in the mini drafts look great and I wonder if other clubs didn't push hard enough to get involved with it. We had to give pick 3 to secure Hogan but that's looking worth it, easily. And I think the Gold Coast and the Crows paid even less for O'Meara, Martin and Crouch.

Tom Scully turned into Hogan, Dawes and Dom Barry
The list of threads at the moment on the main board has "Jessie Hogan" directly above "Jack Watts" I get the feeling that there may be a difference of opinion on named subject between the two.

I would pick Hogan, but only because we desperately need a KPF (and we already have him)
But the reality is Bonts is an awesome player and I would be thrilled to also have him.
So yeah, bias has shaped my decision, either is good.

Whereas using pick 3 (Lachlan Plowman, though more likely Oliver Wines) would have made a difference to our ineptitude?
We went 2-20 in 2013, the worst side in the league by far but for the Giants.

Slightly diverting the topic, and I know the Eagles and Dockers have no more "right" to WA kids than anyone else under the current draft system, but geez, the WA clubs got royally reamed in terms of access to local talent through the new franchise's draft concessions and mini-drafts, didn't they?
I wonder how many will feel the "go home factor" over the next 4-5 years...
Hogan is a quality kid though. Leading Melbourne's goalkicking, leading the league in contested marks, and already has a VFL B&F to his name.

After 4 games ? good work champ

Are you saying you can't judge players after only a few games?
Umm... You've obviously missed the 4 games he's played? You may have also missed the VFL B&F playing only 15 games as a 17yo?
If Boyd is worth a $1M Hogans worth is greater than the cumulative GPD of all pacific nations

Good player...but dont ruin your pants just yet
As much as the selfish side of me wants to see him go back home and play for my boys, I love the idea of him being Melbournes spearhead and great white hope for the next 15 years. They deserve it and he's an absolute beauty.
Yep. Beat Rance from their first one on ione contest, Shrugged of ranch took the contrsted mark turned quick kicked out in from of Bruce running back to goal.
Looked amazing four games in. Rare talent.
The encouraging thing is that he hasn't done anything overally outstanding, he has just been consistent and bloody solid. The likes of J Brown, Dermie, Barry Hall, Mooney all rate him big time

The Cryptarch might explain Melbourne, why all their Purple engrams keep turning into blue ones.

- There can be only one...
Looked good last night, will have to see if his body can hold up to the rigours of AFL footy though.
He did it when he was 18, he was the youngest player in the team, and he played only 13 games (another 2 he played he was injured and off by quarter time).
How many do that at 195cm in their first year on their way to 39 goals ?
Yeah until he gets jack watts'd

Michael Quinn was from Ireland, didn't grow up playing the game and couldn't kick a goal from the goal square in the AFL.
So yeah well done on the B&F. Means jack s**t though.
Clayton & Eade. Hope you guys love prelim finals.
