How does blake howes look? Do you think he is a round 1 smokey?

He is currently a part of the rehab group. I'm not sure what exactly his injury is but he did participate in the non-contact parts of training and was doing some work in the makeshift gym they have in the shed adjacent to the oval.

From what I have seen of him previous to this session there is a lot to like and whilst I don't think he will be a Round 1 smokey I think he will play this year as long as the powers that be are prepared to play some kids this season.

    I think we are lucky to be in this position. The down side is players leave if they cannot get senior games e.g. Bedford.

    Maybe they are referring to the ball's (its) highest point of intersection with the outreached arms of the player? Either way, its splitting hairs

    Which is the highest point of HIS leap, not the highest point the ball has reached, which was the premise of the original discussion.

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      Not long ago, the narrative surrounding Melbourne was steeped in pessimism. There was some concern among the pundits (and even some fans) that the club would arrive at the AFL’s Gather Round still winless, vulnerable to a familiar adversary in the Essendon Football Club, and facing significant scrutiny from an ever-critical media on a national stage. Things have changed.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      Steven King astutely identified the issues that had plagued the Melbourne Football Club over the past two and a half seasons when he auditioned for the newly created coaching role. The side that had claimed the 2021 premiership had become stodgy, slow-paced, and hesitant to take the initiative.

    • PREGAME: Essendon

      Gather Round is upon us and the Demons face off against the Bombers who are on a 17 game losing streak. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons put four quarters of hard contested, fast running and high pressure football to knock off the ladder leaders and early premiership contenders the Gold Suns by 20 points at the MCG on Easter Sunday.

    • PODCAST: Gold Coast

      I’ll be away for the next few weeks, so Binman will be holding the fort for our podcasts covering the Suns, Bombers and Lions matches. As a result, there will be no live podcasts during this period, and we won’t be taking calls or voicemails. Binman will still be dipping into this thread to select a few questions to answer, while also combining the long-form Stats Files podcast with the Demonland Podcast for these shows. Your questions and comments are a huge part of what makes the podcast work, so please post anything you’d like to ask or say below and we’ll do our best to give you a shout-out on the show. Please try to keep each post focused on one specific topic or player to make podcast preparation a little easier. If you have multiple topics you’d like to raise, please put them in separate posts.
