Update from Mahoney

http://www.melbournefc.com.au/news/2015-10-15/dees-on-track-in-trade-period

“We have gone down that path with Gold Coast Suns, after Jeremy had met with them. Right now that is the best trade option for us as a club, if Jeremy was to decide [to leave].

“We’ve had no other club approach us about a potential trade for Jeremy at this stage.

“We also have not received any indication from Jeremy’s management on other interested clubs.”

Given that Coll and North interest has been splashed around for a while it is incredibly disrespectful of them to not keep mfc informed.

But then there hasn't much respectfulness from JH and his DH manager!

Mahoney also said in that article"...(we) made it clear that the club had started negotiations with Gold Coast Suns."

That is a strong statement!

Doesn't sound like we are going to make it easy for him to get to Coll.

If he wants to go there we should make Coll match the nearest best offer ie GC's.

This message from Mahoney is so strong and I love it. Getting on the front foot to the HS rumours and just slammed them. Interesting that Nial hasnt spoken to the club about a preference to go to the Pies. Thought that that would have been the first call this morning. Game on.

I thought Mahoney was part of the f**king useless Football Department that just gave up 25 for Melksham?

How long does Jeremy think he can wait to make up his mind?

At this rate he'll find himself in the PSD or making $300 a game at Melbourne.

what a load of crap put out by his manager saying he is fielding offers from lots of clubs.

Looks to me like everyone has got cold feet and Jeremy has inflated ideas of his worth.

Glad we're playing hardball.

1. 3.45pm: HOWE TO FLY WITH PIES

2. Melbourne jumping jack Jeremy Howe has accepted an offer to join Collingwood, according to The Age. The deal is rumoured to be in the region of $400,000 a season over four years.

Bye-Bye Pick 3!

Hello Kennedy and a swapping of draft picks (most likely)

Well this is all going swimmingly.

   Now the clubs just need to nut out a trade, possibly involving Ben Kennedy and maybe a pick for the Demons to let him go.

   
   

   I'm hoping for something like 26 and Kennedy for Howe and 43

400k for 4 years

They better find a top 12 pick to trade to us if they rate Howe that highly. Hes worth marketing $$$ too with his high marking gimmick

Collingwood need to deal with us, what have they got to offer?

[censored] him. If Gold Coast offer us a better deal than Collingwood then trade him there. He's not a free agent.

What, the same way we coughed up a top 12 pick for rating Melksham as a 400k a season player?

Howe and 4th rounder for Kennedy and 2nd rounder (Seedsman). Get it done Melbourne.

Did you miss the part where I mentioned Howes marketing worth? The moron Pies supporters will scoop up his merchandise cos he takes a hanger every few weeks

Yeah and they need the extra money ....

Not sure if the amount of Jeremy Howe merchandise that is likely to be sold would be a factor in trade negotiations, happy to be proven wrong though!

We’ve just spoken off-air to Jeremy Howe’s manager Ben Niall, who confirmed he has agreed to move to the Pies. Buckley relationship the key

How can they do this when no deal has been done with MFC?

As at 4.00pm the official MFC website still had Mahoney talking about Howe being traded to the Gold Coast. Obviously he is not logging on to the AFL website!

MFC isn't respected by anyone involved, Magpies can just get whoever they choose

I don't get this whole situation.

If he's out of contract, how come we get to trade something for him?

How do we own him at all?

Where the hell does he get off being able to call it.

I call bullshlt !!

Grow somw Melbourne ffs

They can't however we have a choice try and deal with the pies or cut off our nose and send him to the draft which would see him at Carlton or the Suns.

At some stage, you'd have to think we'd grow a pair. Howe can either agree to go to a club that provides the best deal for MFC - or try his hand in the PSD.
