Yeah thanks Howe, could have decided all this crap before you went to Bali you [censored], now we have to continue to wait on you while players are traded and signed all week, could miss a big fish while you decided which club you want.

All the comments about Jeremy stuffing us around seem to miss the more likely point that we are forcing his hand and leaving him with little option.

As another poster alluded to, he is the opposite of Watts in that other clubs perceive his value to be more than what we do.

Exactly my thoughts

I suspect Mr Howe knows where he's going. Has done for a while.

This is Reality Footy 101...you know...where nothing's real.

Really not the sharpest tool in shed is he.

OCTOBER 12, 1.58m: HOWE NOT GONE YET

AFL.com.au's Nick Bowen reports Jeremy Howe hasn't walked out on Melbourne just yet.

"Jeremy Howe remains more likely to leave Melbourne than stay but is yet to request a trade, his manager says.

"Reports on Monday said Howe had requested a trade from Melbourne but the high-flying utility's manager, Ben Niall of Scopo Management, told AFL.com.au his client had yet to decide his future.

"Howe has received offers from Gold Coast and North Melbourne, while a third club – believed to be Collingwood – is also likely to table an offer this week.

"The 25-year-old Tasmanian is on holiday in Bali, but returns to Melbourne late this week.

"Niall said his client should then be able to compare the offers from the Demons and his rival suitors, and decide where he wants to play next season."

Late this week? He's kidding isn't he?

Make the call and let's get on with it. This is getting silly.

I have a nasty feeling that we're going to regret losing him.

I don't. Think you'll find club will ramp up the process now he's been nudged out the door.

The more I think about it, the more I realise that Howe isn't an important part of this club going forward. Played some really good games for the club but he was always one of the first to go missing when the heat was on. I'll miss his marking ability but that's just about it.

So other clubs put offers in early then Pies come along at the 11th hour and hold up the whole process!

They may not even put in an offer this week or may drag it out to next week and it gets held up by the Aish/Treloar/Freeman trades. Then we scramble to get other trades done at the last minute.

I'll say it again I don't trust the Pies nor their motives.

I am concerned that GC and North take their offers elsewhere and we are stuck with only a Pies offer!

Mr Nial, they have phones in Bali you know!

MFC, give them a deadline and stop this stupid shadow dancing!

I don't trust the pies either. They are the shonky used car salesman of trade week! (no offence to car salespeople)

probably means nothing but thought i may post

From reading a few of those comments, it really helps if you have an IQ in the negative to post on those Facebook pages.

Just complete trash.

God no. NO.

I agree M5

Suns seem very keen on him which suggests, with the interest from other clubs, that they might be willing to part with Pick 3 for Howe and Pick 6. Moving up three spots allows us to take who we believe to be the best midfielder in the draft, or gives us a little extra power in terms of trying to pry an A grade mid loose from somewhere.

Either way I think it's in our best interests to try and send him to QLD.

Maybe I am looking at this hypothetical deal the wrong way, but unless there was a pick coming back with 3, that we could use to get say Bugg, I see it as a poor deal for us.

Anyway it is hypothetical only.

    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

    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.

    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.
