Howe to Pies

I would try and go Howe and 25 for pick 10 ( goldcoast pick from port for Dickson )

Curnow at 6 and wiederman at 10

Gist of the article is that it is not a done deal. He is considering all options next week (gets back on Saturday). But seems to allude we'd get Kennedy and a second rounder? or just a second rounder and not Kennedy. Very vague. Seems like he went to market early so he could have the scoop.

MELBOURNE high-flyer Jeremy Howe seems headed to Collingwood in a deal that gives the Pies the two most spectacular marking players in the game.

The Herald Sun understands Collingwood’s interest in Howe dates back more than a month, with the Demon meeting with coach Nathan Buckley several times.

Both Howe and Buckley have been in Bali in recent days but the Pies actually made their play to the Demon weeks ago in a detailed presentation.

Gold Coast have given up any hope he will be heading north, with the Pies set to hand him an official offer overnight or today.

A deal will likely involve a player swap for Collingwood midfielder Ben Kennedy, who is determined to find his way to Melbourne.

A deal of about $400,000 a year for four seasons would see high-leaping Jamie Elliott and Howe uniting in the Pies forward line next year.

Would not be happy with Howe for Kennedy straight swap.. Think Kennedy + pies 3rd rounder which we can on trade the 3rd rounder to GWS for bugg.. Bugg & Kennedy for Howe, that'll do me

FMD.

A final middle finger to the club. Bugger off Howe.

A return of two fringe players (Kennedy and Bugg) for the only guy we had with currency is a horrible outcome.

Not happy if true. Will be time for us to play hard ball.

Kennedy & a 2nd round pick or PSD.

So much for Parish!

Would this be a straight swap for Howe?

What does that mean for us?

Trouble.

PS. However, time to play hard ball. We tell Pies the deal is Howe to you, Seedsman to GC, Kennedy to us, our 6 to GC for their 3, a pick to Pies for Seedsman which goes to us, or they give us one to get Bugg or Melksham. Also deal has to be done this week, or we put him in the draft. They would lose Howe and have an unhappy Kennedy.

Would rather try and keep him than him going to the pies. Really what can the pies offer us

Apart from a player that our recruiting team has shown keen interest in?

No indication, but IMO pick 3 is the best outcome.

Chaser J is pick three that much better than pick 6? I haven't seen the kids at all but it's a deal that doesn't appeal to me.

Same here, all this talk that its an average draft isn't helping my case, pick 3 can't be seriously better than pick 6

    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.

    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.
