as free agents.

All that has to happen to get them, is for them to make the choice to come to us and it's done! Wow! That would be grand.

I'd actually welcome Silvagni (if the price is right) given his form in the backline. He's been one of a handful of Carlton players that are actually not spudding it up this season. Would be a handy short term Howe replacement.

His body is a worry though.

Given the form Frampton only take Silvagni if Howe retired.

 

[sr36]

Think we will probably recruit a journeyman to cover Cameron if he goes down. That is essentially what Cox is atm. But I think Cox will retire. Frampton can do it but he is doing a good job down back. I think the Coaching staff have doubts about Steene at AFL level as the main ruckman.

I think it's a certainty. Suspect Frampton was viewed as offering depth in both ruck and KPD, but with him having nailed down a KPD role, we'll need ruck depth.

Timing isn't right. Howe will play on. JSOS would be mad to move somewhere that he isn't a lock in the back 6 - and I don't think he would be with the way Frampton is playing.

 

[MagpieExcalibur]

I'm pretty certain he will play on. Great player

no doubt a fan favorite but some favorites have to be axed to reduce list age however could be a delist and re-rookie scenario which would be beneficial to all parties imo

 

[Nepotism]

Howe will play on with Collingwood and then go and play for the Tasmanian team in their first season.

You think Howey got 2 more years with us in him and then more with Tassie?

That is his aim. He wants to play in the inaugural Tassie team.

He is still playing great footy. Has not gone backwards one inch.

I hope you’re right really. He’s still very important to us and if his body holds up he’ll definitely go around next year again

 

[Nepotism]

The lure of playing in the first Tassie team is huge for him and then possibly a coaching berth down there with all their young kids. Sets him up for life.

Even if he’s well past his prime physically he’ll be invaluable for their backline as a leader early days

Where have you gotten this from, ie. that his aim is to be playing footy into 2028, a season where he would turn 38 mid-season?

 

[HFF]

I think the most vulnerable veteran is Cox.
His form is really not worthy of going around….
Especially if the club has confidence in Steene to push Cameron as the back up or if we even decide to bring someone else in during the off season too

These days 38 isn't that old assuming no serious injuries. Especially as the Tassie team will be full of kids and no leadership. Perfect for Howie even if he loses half a step.

He wants to set himself up for life as an assistant coach in his home state. They have put out some feelers.

 

[WakeUpPies]

You just reeled off a whole bunch of players that haven't played a game or less than you can count on one hand. Reality is only a few of those will make it

People really need to stop pushing out Brownlow medalists ahead of players whose only redeeming quality is they’re young.

Not that anything we say matters, thank god.

Sorry but 38 is indeed old as a football player by any metric. What you’re saying could apply to the 30-33 bracket, but there have only been a handful of players in history who have made it to 38 or older while still playing.
I appreciate that Howie might want to be involved in the new Tassie team, but I seriously doubt he’d be going down there as a player.

Yeah but we're the oldest team going around so we need to

That there have been one 40yo and two 38yo players this century would go against that contention.

Are we an old side? Haven’t heard it mentioned in the media at all

 

[sr36]

If he doesn't get injuries he has. It'll only be injuries that stops him being able to do what Vlaustin does for the tiges in a couple of year's time.

 

[Vinnie Vegas]

Yes, 38 isn't that old these days, it's just multiple years older than every player in the AFL currently (aside from Pendlebury), and only 4 players since the turn of the century have played a game at the age of 38 - Other than those minor issues, pretty much everyone is playing when they're 38.

Don't worry, you'll get your second wind in another 20 or so years
