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.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.
