Fremantle coach Ross Lyon has declared he has no issues with boom recruit Jesse Hogan’s form, despite him not having a kick last week, and predicted he will finish his career as a Dockers great.

Hogan managed only eight handballs during Sunday’s win over Brisbane and had just one mark. It was his quietest game since joining Fremantle from Melbourne this season.

Lyon said the match committee discussed Hogan’s performance yesterday and believed the ball delivery and lack of chemistry with other forwards contributed to his game.

But Lyon said it wasn’t realistic to expect key forwards to dominate every week.

“I think he’s in form,” Lyon said. “How long does form run for? He kicked 1.4 the week before and dropped a couple of marks. It should have been seven shots on goal.

“There were a number of times we should have created isolation and better opportunities for both Brennan Cox and Jesse Hogan. That didn’t happen. That was a strong feature of the review.”

Hogan averaged 18 disposals, six marks and more than two goals per game for Melbourne last season. This year he averages 15 disposals, six marks and less than one goal.

Lyon said the 24-year-old had done well to even play after a navicular stress fracture to his right foot last season.

Hogan was restricted from running during the pre-season and Lyon said he was now finding new ways to win the ball.

“We know Jesse at his best is a running machine,” Lyon said. “He hasn’t actually been able to play at the exact tempo.

“That’s how good Jesse is. He’s found a way to have five and six shots on goal when he’s not even near his full capacity.

“At the end of the eight years here, I’m sure we’ll be saying he’s a champion forward of the club.”

Meanwhile, Lyon dismissed suggestions he could move clubs if there are mass coaching changes within the AFL.
