Kane Cornes believes Victorian clubs should consider recruiting out of favour Docker Jesse Hogan in the trade period.
Hogan has only managed 15 games for the Dockers since his arrival in 2018 and appears out of favour with rookie coach Justin Longmuir.
The 25-year-old has kicked 165 goals in 86 games, with a season-best 47 goals for Melbourne in 2018.
Cornes raised Essendon as a possible destination for the 25-year-old should Joe Daniher leave the Bombers at the end of the season.
โHe (Hogan) is fit and heโs not playing for Fremantle at the moment,โ Cornes toldย Channel Nineโs Sunday Footy Show.
โHeโs 25 years of age, youโd think that Essendon are going to lose Joe Daniher.
โIf they could get him for a late pick, similarly to what Hawthorn did with Jonathon Patton, and Freo will probably pay some of that wage, is he a player that the Essendon Football Club should look at?
โBecause I think heโs at least worth exploring.โ
