Hows about Howes?

Again no idea about his running capacity, good size for a wing.  I like Bowey as I reckon when he is up and about his ball use is the best in our side.  If I'm JVR seeing Bowey with the ball kicking into forward 50 I would be pretty happy.  At some stage we need to get our better ball users delivering the ball forward.

    Agree Demonstone I like Howes as well he looks a natural winger who can play back, possibly forward as well.

    You want to swap in an ageing British bulldog for a greyhound.  Good luck with that.

    Haven't watched Casey vs Giants yet but prior to that i've seen nothing that would suggest Hunter's performing at a decent VFL level or higher that would warrant a call up.

    I agree with you 100%

    What a disappointing end for Caleb Windsor he has been a bit of a bright shiney light for us all year and timing was terrible. Hope you have a quick and complete recovery Caleb.!!

    Complete trumps quick, unless by some miracle we get to finals without him.

    Howes started off playing wing at Casey before getting pushed to a HB role with others like Woey getting more wing time ahead of him.

    Im not sure he has the wheels or the tank for AFL level here just yet though.

    Is Brown dog another option here at all?  Has some zip and loves to tackle.

    I'd be astonished if Hunter isn't the in this week. 

     

    Not saying it's what I would do, but im very sure it's what goody will do

    Bowey has no aerial ability and he doesn't take the game on very often imo Dr.  A winger needs to roll out and get on his bike pretty quickly without too much hesitation imv.  Bowey tends to over think things a little and by the time he decides, the oppo's got most outlets covered.

    Bowey's pretty good when given the ball but also easily pushed off the ball in one v ones at ground level this season for mine.

    Not the same since his shoulder issue

    Look to reset over the summer break?

    Controversial but I'd like to see what Bowey could do as a small forward going into next year. Alongside koz. 

    Join the queue behind Chandler and Kolt, and maybe Spargo if he recovers fully.

    I believe banner making was tonight. One way to find out if Hunter made the team is to ask our resident banner maker, possibly being his 200th.

    (I have a regret that we left Steven Icke stranded on 198 games).

    I had forgotten that.

    Icke is one of my all time favourite dees, which is pretty remarkable given he played most of his career at another club.

    A brilliant defender who almost always battled bigger forwards.

    Consistent and gave his all as a Dee every single week (compare and contrast with, say, Brent Crosswell).

    Really?

    I feel like it's something he wouldn't do - that's to say allow emotion to influence selection.

    I mean he left jordon on the bench in the GF because we didn't have an injury when not a single person would have begrudged him giving him a run.

    My thought/logic is nothing to do with the milestone, all to do with who else on the list plays and trains the pure wing role

    Gotcha.

    I guess I was thinking a call up on form would be unlikely because he's been poor at Casey.

    Players carrying injuries in the 22 season, injuries before finals in the 23 season, players injured all this season, about time we caught a break, we haven't had much luck for 3 years.

    Jeez with all those flaws how did he hold his spot down back for so long.  The last one about being pushed off the ball 1 v 1 is why I think he needs to be tried in a running position where getting the footy is all about running to the right spots.

    Again no idea if he has the tank to play on a wing, but if he can run it out why not free him up from that backline role and have a run on the wing.

    • GAMEDAY: Western Bulldogs

      It's Game Day and the Demons will be running out on the field with a new Head Coach, albeit a caretaker, for the first time in 3,060 days when they face the Western Bulldogs at the MCG today. What do you want to see from the Demons in the first match of the Post Simon Goodwin era?

    • Thank You Simon Goodwin

      As Demon fans, we’ve ridden a rollercoaster of emotions over the decades; the heartbreaks, the near misses, the wooden spoons, and the endless waiting. But through it all, we clung to hope. And then came Simon Goodwin. Before he ever wore red and blue, he was a champion in his own right. A five-time All-Australian, two-time Best and Fairest, and two-time premiership hero and Captain with Adelaide, Simon Goodwin was always destined to lead. When he transitioned from the field to the coach's box, first as an assistant at Essendon, he began shaping a new legacy.

    • PREVIEW: Western Bulldogs

      Long ago and far away, the Melbourne Football Club replaced its coach in difficult circumstances after the team suffered a devastating loss. In the aftermath, I penned the following words: “Then came the politics, the intrigue, the axing, the sound of the football world laughing at a club, the circling of the media vultures, the reinvention of history, the anger, the irony, the pathos, the hurt on the face of the president, the dignified departure of the coach, and the determination of the newly appointed caretaker.” Today, we’re back in the same place although one difference here is that the coach who was terminated this time is Simon Goodwin, the man who four years ago

    • REPORT: West Coast

      The Charles Dickens novel, A Tale of Two Cities, opens with, “It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, …”  This phrase highlights many of the significant challenges that humanity encounters in life, ranging from experiencing remarkable highs to living in times of despair. This is a concept that should resonate with all supporters of the Melbourne Football Club this morning as they reflect on its comprehensive 83-point victory over the struggling West Coast Eagles at Marvel Stadium. The outcome proved beyond doubt that they are the worst of clubs and that we are the best of the worst.

      With only 3 games to go, all against Top 8 fancies, the Demons face a daunting task as they return to the MCG when they play the Western Bulldogs. Who comes in and who goes out?
