To be fair, I think Howe's IQ matches his playing number. Like most, if not all of them. Look at De Goey, for example.

Should have been a free kick for unduly rough play, tackle had been completed when about 3 others decided to pile on.

To me this is really a non-issue, let the players pipe up and make statements that get us invested into the game. At the end of the day, the on field performance has the last say. Players are human, not media robots.. “we were up against a quality opposition”, “we really respect them”, “they really challenged us in the 1st quarter”… how about, “we’d love to [censored] these a$$holes, they beat us twice this year now”, “we’ve got JH’s number in our sights” and, “if Cox even thinks of looking at Gawny the wrong way with those ridiculous shades, then look out!”

Gerard Whately described it as good entertainment. A bloke being attacked, head driven into the ground, elbows and fists on his face, while on the ground defenceless, against 5 players. Yep great entertainment. Stuff the rules.

I think we need some nastiness back in our play.

Maynard smashed Langdon and ANB and also belted Max in the back of the head, in a spoil in our forward pocket. No free to Max of course.

We need to get nasty and ruthless with our tackles and tackle to hurt.

Teams need to know that we mean business.

I think we have become nice guys, helping the opposition up off the ground and joking with them during the game. 

Harden up guys and hit hard and often.

That won't happen Mr Leg and you know it. That's not the way the MFC have ever played. I can't see it changing.

Blow up picture of Langers being assaulted by four cowards, under the pretext of being entertainment.God we must have put some "defective journalists" back in their mirrors after last season.

Does Jeremy see how stupid HE looks now.  Thanks to the above, guess what goes on the Dees whiteboard in the finals.

Nice one Jeremy. 32 years old and still no Premeirship medal, and unlikely to have one with father time closing n.

  What a waste of a career - as Travis Boak said to TMAC in the Power game last year - another 'speaking too soon ' type..

 

Our Ed got one at 25 and a half.

If the shoe was on the other foot, you know we would demand nothing less than what the Pies dished up. well I know I would.

He was an [censored] for saying it - and bought undue attention to himself that left him rattled and ineffective and irrelevant for large parts of the game.

Werridee could put a team together at the rate that these names are being recalled, Redleg

Michael Reynolds could go a bit from memory

The present day ... Melksham, May, Viney, Hibberd (and Fritsch likes a scrap apparently) ... we could bring back Majak (I wouldn't get him riled up)

If you want to talk about Ed's words not being chosen carefully, I don't think Howe's were chosen much better. Really hope this gets us going for next time we play them for a change.

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.
