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.

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.

    LIVE AND LET DIE by Meggs

    The Demons’ impressive late season charge to finals will most likely come unstuck this Saturday evening when the Bombers blow up the also-ran Blues in the Ikon Park double-header.   To mangle McCartney, what does it matter to ya? To have any chance to play next week Narrm has got a job to do and needs to do it well.  We’ve got to give the Pie sheilas hell, say live and let die! It’s Indigenous Round for this game and the chance to celebrate and engage with Aboriginal and Torres

    Had to shoulder more responsibility as the club’s injury concerns deepened but needs to step up more as he closes in on 100 games. Date of Birth: 31 May 2000 Height: 186cm Games MFC 2024: 21 Career Total: 95 Goals MFC 2024: 6 Career Total: 34 Games CDFC: 1 Goals CDFL: 0

    2024 Player Reviews: #35 Harry Petty

    Failed to fulfill the promise of his breakout six goal effort against the Tigers in 2023 and was generally disappointing as a key forward. It remains to be seen whether Simon Goodwin will persevere with him in attack or return him to the backline where he was an important cog in the club’s 2021 premiership success.

    After a bright start to the season, playing mostly in defence, Howes seemed to lose his way in midseason but fought back with some good performances at Casey and finished the year back at AFL level. One to watch in 2024. Date of Birth: 7 March 2003 Height: 191cm Games MFC 2024: 15 Career Total:  15 Goals MFC 2024: 0 Career Total:  0 Games CDFC 2024: 6 Goals CDFC 2024: 0

    Originally an NBL basketballer with the Brisbane Bullets, he moved across town in 2019 to the AFL Lions where he played 19 games before crossing to Melbourne where he was expected to fill a role as a back up ruckman/key forward. Unfortunately, didn’t quite get there although he did finish equal sixth in Casey’s best and fairest award. Date of Birth: 23 February 1999 Height: 198cm Games CDFC: 14 Goals CDFL: 13

    Sadly, had to wrap up a great career in midstream on the back of multiple concussions which culminated in the Maynard hit in the 2023 Qualifying Final. His loss to the club was inestimable over and above his on field talent given his character and leadership qualities, all of which have been sorely missed.

    2024 Player Reviews: #40 Taj Woewodin

    The son of former Demon Brownlow Medalist Shane, Taj added a further 16 games to his overall tally of games but a number were as substitute. He is slowly fitting into the team structure but without doing anything spectacular and needs to take further steps forward in 2025 for his career to progress.

    The clever small was unable to cement a place in the Melbourne midfield and spent most of his time this year with the Casey Demons where he finished equal fourth in its best & fairest.

    Bowey’s season was curtailed early when he sustained a shoulder injury that required surgery in the opening game against Sydney. As a consequence, he was never able to perform consistently or at anywhere near his previous levels.  Date of Birth: 12 September 2002 Height: 175cm Games MFC 2024: 14 Career Total: 61 Goals MFC 2024: 0 Career Total: 6
