Just heard on the news we are looking at tying petracca up until 2018 as well...

Jonesy said on Game Day out of all the young guys, Petracca is the one he's most excited about, and I took that as including Hogan. Pretty big wrap.

...he then went on to mention every other kid too though, like a good captain would.

Egh John Ralph never opens his eyes the whole way. Looks like French Stewart from 3rd rock from the sun

he's just a disingenuous shyte stirrer. toss in a greedy player manager with a big ego and a desperate sports media editor and we get this carp.

Best footy is still a couple of year ahead of him and in a couple of years time we will be much better as team, that's why he should stay.

I think Howe is underated by us. But mainly becuase he scares the daylights out of opposition coaches.... :)

I'd say opposition coaches probably just say run off Jeremy Howe. He won't chase.

hopefully hes not a pea heart like Rivers and Frawley

Clark...

Incidentally, I wonder whether Clark will look for another new team now? Surely playing for a bottom four side will adversely affect his health.

Don't be ridiculous. Everyone knows the best cure for a chemical imbalance like depression is changing where they work... to do the exact same job.

Rivers served his time and had plateaued, was probably best for all that he moved on.

Have to say that despite all the other wonderous upsides of Geelong falling off their perch this year, having Clark be thick amongst it while we are looking ok is the best.

......and?

You don't think this is good news? You'd rather they left it til he was out of contract next year, so everyone can speculate over whether he is staying or going?

The figures are likely 20% more than the reality,bloated by his agent.

If we gave him 3 at $550k a year it would do.

Plus we can guarantee him a new car per year!

No i ment what else was mentioned? Did they say he would sign soon.

Howe has been called overrated by so many on here, I think it has got to the stage where he is now somewhat underrated. The truth is probably somewhere in the middle, and he is definitely a required player.

All they said was that it was a big show of faith from the club, considering he's done his knee.

Think the players stand a little taller with Howe on the field . Pay him what he is worth , keep building

500k

I live in a part of the country that can be troubled by cyclones in the summer months. We have found media will always take the most sensational and easiest route to report them. This year they used unattributed file footage of crashing waves, driving wind and rain on the news in Melbourne with a reporter doing the audio over the top. In reality that same beach had calm seas and was bathed in sunshine for most of that day.

No doubt the reporting of Howe and others contract negotiations are subject to the same level of quality journalism. I really would not believe anything that has been reported aside from the fact that neither party has signed

It all depends though. If packaged with pick 8ish in exchange for Hannebury (or someone that good) he is less required

Yep, Howe and our first round pick for Shiel and their second round pick, Frost becomes a permanent back, Shiel takes Cross' spot and we draft another premier ruck and were finals bound

Howe's a required player.

Sign him up.

Definitely agree with you on this one. Stay classy!

Tim Watson on SEN this morning has said he's good mates with someone involved in a recruitment/list management role at an AFL club and he has told him there has absolutely been calls from Howe's manager about a possible move.

    TRAINING: Wednesday 13th November 2024

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.
