FAREWELL JEREMY HOWE

Featured Replies

Greg Denham on SEN with KB this morning said that the Howe move to GCS is off he simply wants too many dollars.

At his asking price there are no current suitors.

Love him or loath him Denham has been correct a lot of the time about the MFC.

do you really listen to SEN old dee?

Yes Ernest I really like the KB show.

Parliament is funnier....


Looks like the GWS 'cat amongst the pidgeons' offer on the final day of trade-week has had the desired effect and absolutely farked with Jeremy's head.

I would say he still has offers at hand, but maybe not watt he was hoping for in terms of 4 Yr contract length,,, & the dollars to some extent.

Retract the offer demons. Show him whose in charge

Can see him crawling back for a 3 year deal so after that he can test the market to his hearts content.

Make him come back through the Rookie list ...

 

Probably should've given more of a [censored] this year, Howey. You ruined your own currency with disinterest.

Better yet, drop the price. He comes crawling back, we give him at least 150-200k less than what he wanted. Then let's see how he goes.

From what Roos has spoke of the club haven't officially put any contract to him as it was Howe's decision to test the market first.

I think the club have played this flawlessly. They knew Howe would test the market and be in for a shock.

We didn't take his bluff by putting forth an offer that was overs.

Exactly & they are probably quite happy to have him hooking himself round as he is one of the only players on our list who has trade value to other clubs but is expendable in terms of impact on our list.

Scoop said Melksham, 24, was heading for an Essendon exit in a move that will only intensify speculation over the future of Demons high-flyer Jeremy Howe.

"Howe's been waiting for a contract offer from the Demons for 10 days," Scoop explained on Sports Today.

"It's fair to say he's relatively miffed with Melksham getting the same amount of money he has asked for.

"He's not feeling the love at Melbourne."

I'm not suggesting the above is wrong, but, there has been so much speculation about Howe that nobody can make sense of it. One minute there is an offer on the table, next minute there is lots of interest, the next minute he asking for far too much money and will come crawling back to us, now apparently there is no offer even on the table.

Who knows what to believe.


Obviously the bloke with 'Scoop' as his nickname. Probably signs off emails with it now and is getting it embroidered into a hat as I type. Introduces himself at work functions as 'THE Scoop McClure'. Sounds like one of those horrible newspaper comics from the 50s.

Old Scoopy McScoop.

If Howe isn't even being offered 400k then it would be interesting to know as to why as I rate him higher then Melksham

Brilliant. Would work wonders for the club in a game when things started to go wrong. Can't imagine anything better than having a player [censored] off by that insult wondering why he is bothering during a match when extra commitment suddenly becomes required. Offer him what he's worth and leave it at that.

Howe, by his own efforts ( or as result of his manager's) has come totally unstuck. His decision making off field isnt much better than on field it would seem.

I would imagine the club will have a very frank discussion with him/them. Not nasty just a what-is tete a tete ; clear the air and see what is best path forward. Maybe he stays at Melbourne, maybe he doesn't. Either way he's now currency.

Well done Howey...kicking goals...all own-ones !!!


This has gone on for too long now, and I think the Club must have serious reservations about whether Jeremy Howe is fair dinkum about playing for the jumper and with his team mates, which might sound old-fashioned but still much more important than playing for the dollar. I think he has done his dash now, and I reckon the Club should trade him.

Maybe his preferred club is still playing finals and wear purple jumpers.

 

Swap Howe for Aish that's a fair deal and both club keep there draft picks

As has been stated by others, I don't really blame the players. Jeremy like all others is looking to set himself up financially. Given the mercenary nature of the market and also that of the clubs, who can blame the players. Just ask all the players recently delisted, As you point out, perhaps it is his managers fault. These guys are like real estate agents and will talk up a trade or sale for their own personal gain.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: West Coast

    Epic battle alert.  This Sunday, Casey Fields hosts a coach’s showdown pitting the wits of the master Mick Stinear (92 games, 71.7% win rate) against his protégé Daisy Pearce (16 games, 43.8%). Still early in her coaching journey, Daisy’s record doesn’t yet reflect her impact — but she’s already the best-performed coach at West Coast.Dais’ is mythic.  Like Katniss Everdeen, everyone either wants to kiss her, kill her (sporting metaphor) or be her.  Toothers Daisy Pearce is a role model, someone admired for their heart, humility and humour.

  • AFLW REPORT: Port Adelaide

    Well, that was a shock. The Demons 4-game unbeaten run came to a grinding halt in a tense, scrappy affair at the sunny, windy Alberton Oval, with the Power holding on for a 2-point win. The Dees had their chances—plenty of them—but couldn't convert when it mattered most. Port’s tackling pressure rattled the Dees, triggering a fumble frenzy and surprising lack of composure from seasoned players.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

    The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

  • CASEY: Frankston

    The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.
