The problem with people who think they are funny is that they are not. Leave the jokes to the professional comedians Howe.

 

Thankfully his trophy cabinet is as bereft of premiership medals as he suggests the MCG was of crowds during his Melbourne playing days.

True, but one of the funnier ones on here to be fair.

That is ok with the comments you came out with Jeremy.  The thing is that  the Melbourne boys are competitive as all the clubs are. they do not forget certain comment at the club. 

The  problem is that they won't forget it and will use it for motivation.  It will be just what we need.  It could cost  the wobbles a spot in the eight in the end of things.  I wouldn't be too disappointed  if you injured yourself somehow. 

You played 100 games for us and became an automatic MCC member for the achievement. You don't get that from a feral football club as the one you are playing for.  

 

Meh, cheap shot. Beat the pies on QB and make sure he knows all about it. ?‍♂️

So why did he keep Jack Watts?

He didn't, as far as can see  Roos cut Watts some slack, on a few occasions,  because of Jack W's talents. 

Roosy and PJ were unhappy with JW's efforts in 2016,  and when at Edihard stadium, watts was dragged and dropped,  'iirc',  for a time.  Watts came back with better attitude/form,  gaining an extension on contract, until after Roosy was finished.

 

2017 was it for  'JW',  and really should have been much,  much earlier than that,  in hindsight.   We would have gotten a better trade for him, if offered up earlier..?   If after a season under Roos, (2014),  we would have gotten a good deal for 'JW'.

This would have put us right back into the early 2014 National Draft.  https://www.footywire.com/afl/footy/ft_drafts?year=2014&t=N&s=P

 


I’m all for it. Just a bit of cheeky banter. I prefer it to dull, “everybody’s great”, p.c bollocks. 

Took the kids to training at Casey when Howe was still with us.
The players were great with the kids with an exception.
Yep, Jeremy Howe.
Far too good to give any kid there the time of day.
Really stood out to me as a phlog.

Jack Watts and Colin Sylvia on the other hand were 1st class.

Howe was given every chance when at MFC. He was and still is  a selfish player who would rather play where he wants to rather than be a fully fledged input at a Club....  I have no time for him or his sadistic comments. 


If you are not with us, you are against us. Im sure it was Jest, but i love my club and if you are taking swipes at it i will get my backup regardless if its  a joke or not.

TBH not sure why people are outraged at people been a bit peeved off over the comments... It’s a Collingwood season launch, the question has nothing to do with Melbourne as a footy club, he left the club 5 years ago. Cheap pot shot at a club that gave him a chance in the AFL and if it wasn’t for us who knows where he would be, certainly not running around in front of “mass crowds” at Collingwood.

Must run in the family because cousin Matthew Wade is a crap bloke that the Aussie team don’t like.

Let the return home to Perth jungle drums beat ?

He’s a decent footballer. He’s also an absolute div. You’d find more intelligence in most peoples stools.

please chook, don't insult bar stools. have spent many a wondrous time on a bar stool.

Well to be fair, Howe does play in front of a ' thick' crowd each week. He plays for Collingwood .

This is actually pretty funny. I can't believe people on here are getting upset.

Thats cos hes not saying it in a humorous way

He hates our club.   He ran like a coward to the biggest team in the country cos he wants to be Mr Hollywood.  Total clown.

Can not stand the bloke... Totally unnecessary comments

 

And yet the smallest Melbourne crowd has twice the IQ and far less gaol time than the largest Collingwood crowd


What a top bloke!

Taking a swipe at a team he has good mates at, and the only team that took a chance on him and gave him a shot at AFL when he was just a scrubber down in Tassie.

Heheh that’s quite a funny quip! Can’t wait to beat them this year ?

yeah I'm also one of the few on here that just finds this a funny light burn. Also kind of true....

I can see why others are taking offense and agree with all the sentiments directed to Jeremy. But he's also kind of right I've been to every Melbourne MCG game for the past 15 years and there's definitely been some empty stands during those years we shall not speak of.

  • GAMEDAY: Richmond

    It's Game Day and the Demons return to the MCG to face the Tigers in their annual Blockbuster on ANZAC Eve for the 10th time. The Dees will be desperate to reignite their stuttering 2025 campaign and claim just their second win of the season. Can the Demons dig deep and find that ANZAC Spirit to snatch back to back wins?

  • PREVIEW: Richmond

    A few years ago, the Melbourne Football Club produced a documentary about the decade in which it rose from its dystopic purgatory of regular thrashings to the euphoria of a premiership victory. That entire period could have been compressed in a fast motion version of the 2025 season to date as the Demons went from embarrassing basket case to glorious winner in an unexpected victory over the Dockers last Saturday. They transformed in a single week from a team that put in a pedestrian effort of predictably kicking the ball long down the line into attack that made a very ordinary Bombers outfit look like worldbeaters into a slick, fast moving side with urgency and a willingness to handball and create play with shorter kicks and by changing angles to generate an element of chaos that yielded six goals in each of the opening quarters against Freo.

  • NON-MFC: Round 07

    Round 7 gets underway in iconic fashion with the traditional ANZAC Day blockbuster. The high-flying Magpies will be looking to solidify their spot atop the ladder, while the Bombers are desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top eight. Later that evening, Fremantle will be out to redeem themselves after a disappointing loss to the Demons, facing a hungry Adelaide side with eyes firmly set on breaking into the top four. Saturday serves up a triple-header of footy action. The Lions will be looking to consolidate their Top 2 spot as they head to Marvel Stadium to clash with the Saints. Over in Adelaide, Port Adelaide will be strong favourites at home against a struggling North Melbourne. The day wraps up with a fiery encounter in Canberra, where the Giants and Bulldogs renew their bitter rivalry. Sunday’s schedule kicks off with the Suns aiming to bounce back from their shock defeat to Richmond, taking on the out of form Swans.Then the Blues will be out to claim a major scalp when they battle the Cats at the MCG. The round finishes with a less-than-thrilling affair between Hawthorn and West Coast at Marvel. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

  • REPORT: Fremantle

    For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

  • CASEY: UWS Giants

    The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

  • PREGAME: Richmond

    The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?
