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.

    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.

    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.

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

    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.

    • CASEY: Sydney

      The Casey Demons were always expected to emerge victorious in their matchup against the lowly-ranked Sydney Swans at picturesque Tramway Oval, situated in the shadows of the SCG in Moore Park. They dominated the proceedings in the opening two and a half quarters of the game but had little to show for it. This was primarily due to their own sloppy errors in a low-standard game that produced a number of crowded mauls reminiscent of the rugby game popular in old Sydney Town. However, when the Swans tired, as teams often do when they turn games into ugly defensive contests, Casey lifted the standard of its own play and … it was off to the races. Not to nearby Randwick but to a different race with an objective of piling on goal after goal on the way to a mammoth victory. At the 25-minute mark of the third quarter, the Demons held a slender 14-point lead over the Swans, who are ahead on the ladder of only the previous week's opposition, the ailing Bullants. Forty minutes later, they had more than fully compensated for the sloppiness of their earlier play with a decisive 94-point victory, that culminated in a rousing finish which yielded thirteen unanswered goals. Kicks hit their targets, the ball found itself going through the middle and every player made a contribution.

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      Hands up if you thought, like me, at half-time in yesterday’s game at TIO Traeger Park, Alice Springs that Melbourne’s disposal around the ground and, in particular, its kicking inaccuracy in front of the goals couldn’t get any worse. Well, it did. And what’s even more damning for the Melbourne Football Club is that the game against St Kilda and its resurgence from the bottomless pit of its miserable start to the season wasn’t just lost through poor conversion for goal but rather in the 15 minutes when the entire team went into a slumber and was mugged by the out-of-form Saints. Their six goals two behinds (one goal less than the Demons managed for the whole game) weaved a path of destruction from which they were unable to recover. Ross Lyon’s astute use of pressure to contain the situation once they had asserted their grip on the game, and Melbourne’s self-destructive wastefulness, assured that outcome. The old adage about the insanity of repeatedly doing something and expecting a different result, was out there. Two years ago, the score line in Melbourne’s loss to the Giants at this same ground was 5 goals 15 behinds - a ratio of one goal per four scoring shots - was perfectly replicated with yesterday’s 7 goals 21 behinds. 
      This has been going on for a while and opens up a number of questions. I’ll put forward a few that come to mind from this performance. The obvious first question is whether the club can find a suitable coach to instruct players on proper kicking techniques or is this a skill that can no longer be developed at this stage of the development of our playing group? Another concern is the team's ability to counter an opponent's dominance during a run on as exemplified by the Saints in the first quarter. Did the Demons underestimate their opponents, considering St Kilda's goals during this period were scored by relatively unknown forwards? Furthermore, given the modest attendance of 6,721 at TIO Traeger Park and the team's poor past performances at this venue, is it prudent to prioritize financial gain over potentially sacrificing valuable premiership points by relinquishing home ground advantage, notwithstanding the cultural significance of the team's connection to the Red Centre?

      After kicking the first goal of the match the Demons were always playing catch up against the Saints in Alice Spring and could never make the most of their inside 50 entries to wrestle back the lead.
