Is it posing a rhetorical question?

2009 by a mile---however I think in the next few years ,our picks for 2010 will really surface- Cook, Howe,Troy Davis, Tom McDonald, Jordie McKenzie & Jake Spencer were added to the senior list..The rookie list picks is also a ripper including- Evans, Nicholson, the exciting Lawrence, Johnston, Campbell-Newton and McNamara making up the rest...we surely cannot complain with recruiting over the latest few years under Prendergast.

His hands are outstanding and the marks he took today were great. The 2 goals were very handy. Definitely a future player for us and we havent seen him take a trade mark screamer yet.

Is he a chance for the rising star nomination this week?

Menzel got the nod this week, but I like Howie's chances before season's end (not that it's worth much anyway!)

I must admit I wasn't overly enthused initially when we drafted Howe. "Why take a mature age, midsized forward that nobody's heard of with an early pick" I wondered to myself. Shows how little I know! :rolleyes:

He has been fantastic. Still a long way to go, but he possesses the tools to make it. Pretty much puts an end to Bate's career at Melbourne.

Wasn't he pick 30? Hardly early.

Word was that the Pies had flown Howe over in secrecy for a clandestine workout.

We were into him and got wind of their interest, so pounced earlier than originally intended.

Glad we did.

He didn't like their facilities.

Doesn't like the idea of trekking over crumbled rocks on a 45 degree slope in Arizona either...too risky, could do a PCL/ACL...oops sorry Browny, Mick & Eddie.

Good for the red blood cells though...

And a Patella too.

Makes the LBrown pick a couple of years back a genius stroke.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 16 vs Brisbane

    It's Game Day and the Dees are deep in the heart of enemy territory as they take on the Lions in Brisbane under the Friday Night Lights at the Gabba. Will the Demon finally be awakened and the season get back on track or will they meekly be sacrificed like lambs to the slaughter?

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last

    LIFE SUPPORT by Whispering Jack

    With Melbourne’s season hanging on a thread, Saturday night’s game against North Melbourne unfolded like a scene in a hospital emergency department.  The patient presented to the ward in a bad way. Doctors and nurses pumped life-saving medication into his body and, in the ensuing half hour, he responded with blood returning to his cheeks as he stirred back to life. After a slight relapse, the nurses pumped further medication into the bloodstream and the prognosis started looking good as the

    PREGAME: Rd 16 vs Brisbane

    GAMEDAY: Rd 15 vs North Melbourne

    It's Game Day and it very well could be the last roll of the dice for the Demon's finals aspirations in 2024. A loss to the bottom side would be another embarrassing moment in a cursed year for the Dees whilst a win could be the spark they need to reignite the fire in the belly.
