For the same reason we want to spend pick 2 for Rockliff, Shuey, et al.

Skip the dev stage, give the bloke a role and watch him become a star.

I would trade him an established mid, but he has the skills to be Ryan O'Keefe. Get Roos to help him with his finger that's up his arse and get him to work hard off a wing/hff.

I can see where you're coming from with this comparison, rpfc, but IMO Howe's field-kicking is nowhere near O'Keefe's. Work-rate and discipline can be worked on, but field-kicking has that ceiling.

He really looks like a ROK type player...

No.

Pick 2 for Shiel is pretty much correct weight.

I would have thought so...No need for embellishing or dealing past the sale .

thats right, the last time we allowed one of our players be exploited by our marketing brains-trust, we almost destroyed his career before it even started.

Ohhhh so now it's the marketing team's fault Watts has struggled.... FMD

Frawley for Shiel Simple really!He wont sign so off he goes to GWS!

Its time all at MFC stopped having love-ins over players they are just a means to an end in a ruthless competetive business enviorement

The important thing here is the clubs' future not about any indivigual player

If Frawley wont sign then trade him don't wait and lose the opportunity

when did people fall out of love with Jeremy Howe?

He was our bloody leading goal kicker this season in an area that the ball rarely came down into and when it did it was kicked atrociously?!

Will be much better with some key forwards on the park to take much of the focus off of him.

Get a clue people.

I don't think anyone wants to get rid of him because they (we) think he's rubbish. It's more about the fact he has currency and is surplus to our needs up forward. If he can develop into a genuine midfield role I'd prefer to keep him, but I don't see it - he's more of a forward flanker type, something we have an over-abundance of.

Agree

I support the club not the player - don't get me wrong love Frawley and he's a gun.

THis club will remain a [censored] kicker until it gets ruthless in all aspects of it's operations

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an

    ALAS SPRINGS by Whispering Jack

    I got the word on Saturday from someone who knows someone inside the Fremantle camp that the Dockers were pumped and supremely confident about getting the W the next day against Melbourne at TIO Traeger Park in the red heart of the country. I was informed that the Dockers were extremely confident for a number of reasons. They had beaten the Demons on their home territory at the MCG at their last two meetings so they didn’t see beating them at Alice Springs as a problem. They belie

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,
