Would you take Jeremy Howe back?

A hypothetical.... Let's just say we continue along the path we are currently on and win the flag or come bloody close. Collingwood decide to trade out players with currency wherever they can for their rebuild. Collingwood are open to trading out Howe. Would you take him back?

    I absolutely wouldn’t, the bloke has done nothing but have cracks at the club since he left.  He deserves to finish out his career in the bottom 4 (hopefully with no crowds watching).

    Not the way he left, the way he has conducted himself since he left nor on injuries either.

    Good question. No.

    Our current glue is a selfless team ethos. That is not Howe's style. Let him stay at Collingwood to languish at the bottom if the ladder, where he can take his hangers before turning it over to the opposition and I don't have to care about it.

    On one hand you could argue it is hard to blame him - he escaped the club when it really wasn’t a great place to be. 
     

    On the other hand you could argue he is a Judas. I’m with this hand.

    No DH policy at Melbourne for a while now. He just cost his club $20k for getting De goey to grab his phone for him. So a NO for me.

    It has always upset me that Howe is playing for Collingwood. It has also always upset me that Collingwood is praised for turning Howe into a backman. I'm glad he missed a flag in 2018. He should still be at Melbourne, but would he fit into our system?

    He was a reason to go to the footy when we weren’t winning to see another mark of the year contender. 
    He also said some nice words ahead of Chunk’s 300th last week, so I’m not sure he’s a complete dh.
    But now we’re winning. He won’t make us a better team, nor does he have the pressure attributes IMO. Absolutely a no from me.

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

      The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
