My concern is that he is a bit of a one trick pony .He certainly can take a speccy but that only gives him one possesssion even if it is a memorable one .Has features of Russell Colcott about him and like Russell if he doesnt develop a more of an all round game he will become a one man highlight reel with a short career .

Has the yips, Big Time!!! That's why he handballed into trouble after taking MOY. Just needs to settle a mite... A great pick up. You don't take those one touch grabs week after week if you haven't got something special. The reason he is a keeper of the highest order is his pace and endurance. An inspired draft pick... amongst the gloom

He's played 17 games?

C'mon, cut him some slack.

Better kick than Parke.

Barry Bourke on steroids. Parke was a bigger unit who used his body strength to take contested pack marks. Bourke used his agility and spring to play above his height.

He is becoming the excitement machine that Jurrah was prior to his injuries and "other issues". To me he is a Robbo, plus teamwork.

If his kicking for goal was as good as his marking he'd be our best player this year.

Jones has him pipped just.

I could not care what great marks he takes if he continually misses set shots from 25m and has brain fades on landing. The marks are great as is his effort but the goal kicking and decision making needs to seriously improve.

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?

Nonetheless, this is the Jeremy Howe thread, and it's how I feel about Jeremy Howe at the moment.

Needs to stop kicking off one step, he does such hard work getting the ball and then kicks off one effing step...

He is a talent, a talent that might translate well to the role we all hope Sylvia doing but he needs to get rid of a few lazy things he does.

Great talent though.

I like a lot of what I see from him, but he is frustrating the crap out of me with his set shots of late. He has missed some very simple shots recently, and our rot on Saturday started with the first shot of the game being from him. Given our lack of opportunity, we need to make sure we take every chance we get.

Plenty to like about him, but a long way to go.

Jeremey Howe is proof white men can jump!

He made Good Morning America's "Play of the Day" - http://www.worldfoot...012052210064722

Great catch PMan.

Nonetheless, this is the Jeremy Howe thread, and it's how I feel about Jeremy Howe at the moment.

Fair enough.

Agree with most here but whats strange is that last season his kicking was top notch, it seams to be this year its taken a backwards step. His miss on Sydney meant we were a goal down insteand of a goal up and the game was over (which is an indication of where were at - but thats for another topic)

However take nothing away from him, hasnt even played a full season yet and hes one of the very few reasons to watch the club these days. Already has 5 nominations for mark of the year

Don't forget, Cloke was bagged as an awful kick as little as 18 months ago, and now many on here are clamouring to sign him up for next year.........

yep, needs to kick the easy goals before i get too excited. but do love the way he goes about it.

I think he is an ok kick at goal but when he takes a grab and immediately whips around and kicks off one step I cringe.

A terrific Tasmanian talent who just needs learn to cap of his feats of brilliance. One of the few on the list we managed to draft at over the odds, 38th or thereabouts. A ray of sunshine in all the gloom.

The difference was that Cloke kicked well at training so his poor accuracy was considered psychological.

Jeremy Howe has provided some rare highlights for us so that is enough for me at the moment,

The difference was that Cloke kicked well at training so his poor accuracy was considered psychological.

Is he a poor kick at training as well? I do remember last year him being a pretty good set shot, so it surely must be a confidence thing.

There's a lot to love about Howe and he has stepped it up in pretty much all areas except for goal kicking... which must have gone backwards because it's brutal this year.

It comes across like he is thinking himself out of kicking goals with set shots.

Few articles about this kid recently, one about Neeld thinking he can be an elite-mid fielder. Personally I think that he needs to improve his kicking before he can be put on this level

Another one was about the Dees trying to sign him, does anyone have any information on this? How many years or on how much? Any other teams trying to lure him? I hope we get the deal done quick.

I think Monday's game showed he can take a strong contested mark, while not launching for a hanger. My only worry is him and Clarke both going for every mark in the forward 50, as we all know Clarke is not going to pull out....
