Hahaha mate I stir my mates up when I go with them and every time JH goes near it I give them the old 'mooooodraaaaa'! Gives them the s**ts!

Howe has x factor and i expect him to get better , maybe much better

What he has to watch is his decision to go for the big mark or not as he is quite good at ground level

While a mark is best , second best is keeping the ball in that forward 50 not into an opposing players crumbing hands especially if it his direct oppnent

Definatley looks a forward but where ?

Neeld has some thinking to do

Clark , Tapscott, Green , Jurrah , Davey , Cook, Fitzpatrick , Howe , Sylvia , Watts , Morton , Pettard , Bate and Martin etc are all IMO fighting for a foward spot

Clark is a lock as we didnt recruit him to pay at Casey

Really enjoy watching thsi guy

Has a bit of Greg Parke about him

Robbo, with far far more common sense, accountability, team orientation and defensive skills and attitude.

Could be a really big thing, and a huge bargain.

Could be a mid, or a decent tall fast marking forward.

To me he will play both forward and mid and develop into a very exciting player. He will give us a great target around the ground not just up forward with his marking ability.

Yep, one of the few carrying the load at present. Wasn't a perfect game today by any stretch, but he worked very hard and was literally everywhere. Really loving his development at the moment.

Currently in my mind he's a player who takes hangers, kicks behinds and makes shit decisions when he gets it in the middle of the ground. Probably doesn't deserved to be picked on but he's frustrating me.

Surely other deserve more scrutiny?

Those that wait for a player to be covered before they handball to him?

Those that handball to a teammate two feet away?

Those that tap the ball to their feet in a rucking contest?

Those that refuse to spread and cover the ball like moths around a light?

Surely?

Needs a kicking coach desperately.

A cantankerous old coot called Bluey on 'Ology labelled him Hookfoot Howe a ways back and if you watch his shot at goal in the first quarter you'll see how apt that is. He swung his leg across his body so dramatically it was never going to be a goal.

If that can be corrected we've got a 10 year forward who will bag 50 a year, but right now we've got a bag of wasted opportunities.

Would like to see him tag the likes of Scotland or Robinson next week, or maybe even Gibbs. Then have him tagging Thomas or Heath Shaw the week after.

Ideal time for him to work of his accountability. Think he can play that role that Stevie J plays, and do it really well.

People will remember him for his hangers, but he's got a lot of tricks.

He has good pace, is clean, skilled (despite some yips at the moment) and a really good work rate. He could be a really good, high possession half forward or perhaps even a midfielder. The hangers are just fun to watch.

    TRAINING: Monday 20th January 2025

    Demonland Trackwatcher Gator attended training out at Casey Fields to bring you the following observations from Preseason Training. GATOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS There were 5 in the main rehab group, namely Gawn, Petracca, Fullarton, Woewodin and Lever.  Laurie was running laps by himself, as was Jefferson.  Chandler, as has been reported, had his arm in a sling.  Lindsay did a bit of lap running later on. Some of the ''rehab 5'' participated in non contact drills and b

    There were a number of Demonland Trackwatchers at Gosch's Paddock this morning to bring you their observations from Preseason Training. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS They were going hard at each other. The sims were in two 15 minute blocks. The second block finished a few minutes early, they gathered and had another 7 minutes at it. I think they were asked to compete, as they would play against an opposition. There was plenty of niggle, between some of them. At the end o

    Better late than never … and quite frankly, there’s very little to report other than that training took place at Casey Fields this morning, that Tracc was there nursing his rib injury and that some photographs are on the club’s social media including this one of Clarrie in Raging Bull stance that gives rise for confidence. The other news is that the club has a new train on player in 185cm Dandenong Stingrays midfielder Noah Hibbins-Hargreaves (love the hyphenated name which is just so fitti

    Welcome back to Demonland for those like me who have been on vacation. I’m posting this with some trepidation because of a certain amount of uncertainty surrounding the return of preseason training in 2025 after a flurry of weddings including those of our coach, one of our superstar players and a former premiership champion player and bloke, not to mention the recent mysterious incident that occurred on the Mornington Peninsula.  I believe that the team reassembles this morning at Casey Fie

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session. BLWNBA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I arrived at around 1015 and the squad was already out on the track. The rehab group consisted of XL, McAdam, Melksham, Spargo and Sestan. Lever was also on restricted duties and appeared to be in runners.  The main group was doing end-to-end transition work in a simulated match situation. Ball mov
