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. 

And so was Dunn in his 1st half of his career.  He wanted to only play forward.   He thought he was too good for defence,  and was insulted with that role.  But he was a head ducker.

When he settled into defence, he was a better player.

As was Howe, but still soso.

Jeremy Howe when leaving Melbourne to go to Collingwood. " Nathan has a defined role for me in the Collingwood forward line.

Ha Ha

I found it quite amusing to be honest & let's face it, good bloke or not....he's right. We shouldn't have got rid of him in the first place & as TGR said, he's an AA when in good form.

One of the best aeralists the games ever seen, reads the play exceptionally well & a very good kick. Collingwood have shown more faith in him than we did......

Plenty of players want to leave clubs......Papley, Daniher more recently.

Their clubs chose to not allow them to leave. Obviously MFC didnt rate Howe & that's ok I guess but he has had the last laugh.

Daniher was still under contract at Essendon, Papley is still with the Swans

Based on no evidence at all.

Bit of a joke actually. But i hope the comment is put up in the players rooms as a little reminder 

Winning is always the key to these digs

When at Melbourne it was always "always about Jeremy" It was just that he happened to be the one who could skip around and get easy marks/ kicks. All of a sudden he didn't like it when he was asked to present....back at the pies he is not asked to put in just yet but he will be. Probably the easiest of easy "skirting around" players we have had. The reason why i know, because i was asked to present too, and i couldn't.....i remember though.......

Howe is a decent player. But as a lifelong Pie Supporter he always wanted to end up next door

A shame we didn’t get more for him

I sure hope we beat The Filth in September. His mates will remind him for a long time

What, other than watching him weekly,  with high hopes for him.

One of his first games was against the Cats,  as I recall,  in a night game.  Maybe a Friday night game?

He was played at CHF, didn't like close attention when going for his overhead marks.   Nothing much changed for sometime,  and the club searched for his rightful position.  Eventually as a defender.   He didn't like that at first.

Isn't the point of being AA that you do it for more than a few weeks? Howe hasn't done that, or else he would have been an AA by now.

Howe is a amazing intercept mark. That's all. Not enough to be AA

So you have based that on what you see on tv.. right..

So in your initial comment you said "he wanted to play forward, he thought he was too good for defence" so he never directly said that to you did he, or any quotes that he stated . Again, how do you he didn't like that at first? 

You're just making yourself look silly here by making stuff up.

Based it on watching him live in his early career;  seeing him duck his head and drop marks.  For the first few years, unit l got sick of him trying to make it. 

The debate was on for some time, Re where he should play,  back or forward.   This is why he became a defender.   It's the position he could handle.

Meantime the club was wasting time going in circles.

Wow.. ok.

So next time I see Lever or Gawn drop marks or duck their heads i will know for a fact they absolutely hate playing in their currents positions. Got it.

Could have sworn he plays for Port. 

Yeah he does, but according to @MyFavouriteMartian Dunn was traded by Roos because he was part of this week culture that we had lingering. If that was the case, then why didn't Roos do the same for Watts? Only took Goodwin 1 year to realise Watts should have been traded years before that. Roos got rid of Dunn to make way for none other then Oscar McDonald. That was a poor decision.

No respect for him either on these cyber boards.  I recall many here thinking he was absolutely dispensable.  Jeremy Howe is a bone-fide All Australian key back.  They don't grow on trees.

 

We give it, but can't take it at all.  Quick to highlight a negative prediction from a journo, but won't apologise when the journo is inevitably correct.

 

 

 

I wonder if Demonland will give Jeremy a warning point for inciting negativity and rage.

Com on mods we got kick this non demon support off demonland, use ever post to put sh@t real demons

Why worry what an opponent says. He takes a good grab that’s about it, not sure he helped us win any matches directly. 
unlike say JW who kicked that goal against the pies, encouraged by jones , a really great goal. 
JH never really invested in the MFC,

I expect to have a much better year Go Dees 2020

    DEFUSE THE BOMBERS by Meggs

    Last Saturday’s crushing loss to Fremantle, after being three goals ahead at three quarter time, should be motivation enough to bounce back for this very winnable Round 5 clash at Windy Hill. A first-time venue for the Melbourne AFLW team, this should be a familiar suburban, windy, footy environment for the players.   Essendon were brave and competitive last week against ladder leader Adelaide at Sturt’s home ground. A familiar name, Maddison Gay, was the Bombers best player w

    BLOW THE SIREN by Meggs

    Fremantle hosted the Demons on a sunny 20-degree Saturdayafternoon winning the toss and electing to defend in the first quarter against the 3-goal breeze favouring the Parry Street end. There was method here, as this would give the comeback queens, the Dockers, last use of the breeze. The Melbourne Coach had promised an improved performance, and we did start better than previous weeks, winning the ball out of the middle, using the breeze advantage and connecting to the forwards.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.

    REMATCH by Meggs

    The Mighty Demons take on the confident Cats this Saturday night at the recently completed $319 million redeveloped GMHBA Stadium, with the bounce of the ball at 7:15pm. Our last game of 2023 was an agonisingly close 5-point semi-final loss to Geelong, and we look forward to Melbourne turning the tables this week. Practice match form was scratchy for both teams with the Demons losing practice matches to Carlton and Port Adelaide, while the Cats beat Collingwood but then lost to Essendo
