Blake Howes

I think so.

Well, if you run it this way, so Blake Howes against the Suns, that's when it all started to unravel from that point of view.

That's like them missing maybe Cowan, similar types.

I think he's 188, Cowan.

So I would say Colt's number one.

I would say Tommy Sparrow's number two.

And I would put Blake Howes in at number three, personally.

Now, Jake Bowie missed the first nine games.

They clearly need two or three players to top up and they found that with Jack Steele from last year.

You lose Majic, Lever, Van Roy and Blake Howes didn't play.

They're all really important structurally for that side.

So I would have thought overall a real tick for the Demons.

There's so many moving parts.

And, um, obviously, uh, Blake Howes is out as well.

He's a nice defender to have out for us, 'cause if he came in, then maybe they probably don't go with Lever.

That's what I'm thinking.

Um, but our injury list is looking l- you know, a hell of a lot better than it was four or five months ago.

Our best 23-- Well, our injury list is Jed Adams, Jack Carly, Blake Howes, Thomas Matthews, Brodie Majek, Andy Menezes-Wakefield, and Van Rooyen, and probably arguably, I mean, Brodie Majek would be best 23, though with the improvement of Jeffo and, and Van Rooyen, I should say, um, you know, maybe not next season, but, uh, certainly he was when he went out.

So let's count him.

So that's-- And Van Rooyen is out with suspension.

And this is how we're getting so close to shaping up the team.

Like does Viney get a crack over Salem? What happens with Blake Howes? If Blake Howes comes into the team, does he just simply take T-Mac's spot? I think so.

And then the other one who's pushing hard for selection and he's way too good for VFL.

They don't have another game anymore, but it's Xavier Lindsay.
