So he can play second fiddle to Draper? Seems a bit strange but if it happens he'll probs just be the chop out Ruck I'm guessing?

Must be a good 1 or 2 year deal. I'm sure he understands he's at the end of his career and will be played as required or he's been spun a web of lies. 😉

Yeah it'd be a decent deal if he only had to play when Draper was injured and the rest of the time he was in the coach's box or something, was decently paid for the duration.
I'd imagine Draper could become an awesome Ruckman with some experienced ruck brain imparting their knowledge onto him.

And it took this long for the first utterance of “Moneyball” on trade radio. Surely with all the dead air to fill and to keep the advertisers happy, then finally a dissertation will be provided clearly explaining the theory behind Moneyball and the application to AFL teams. :ROFLMAO:

I think Bucks got a "moneyball" out within the first hour or so of Trade Radio this morning, and it was then that I truly knew we were into the o***eason.

NORTH Melbourne utility Daniel Howe has announced his retirement after nine seasons at two clubs.

Drafted by Hawthorn in 2014, Howe played 96 games for Hawthorn – including three finals – before joining the Kangaroos in the 2022 rookie draft.

WHO’S CALLED IT QUITS 2023’s retirements and delistings

Alongside ex-Hawks coach Alastair Clarkson, Howe played 11 senior games in 2023.


He retires with 107 AFL games to his name.

"Dan has only been at the club for one season, but he's had a significant impact on the group in his time here," North footy boss Todd Viney said.

"He brought a professional attitude to his training and preparation, and gave his all in every game he played, whether at AFL or VFL level.

"At the end of the season Dan had a chat with Clarko about what 2024 looked like and he decided it was in his best interests to prioritise life beyond AFL football.

"We wish Dan all the best for his future endeavours and thank him for his service to North Melbourne."
