AFL career
Hawthorn (2015–2022)
After Hawthorn won the 2014 premiership the Hawthorn recruitment officer concentrated on the younger players in the 2014 AFL draft. Howe was drafted in the 2nd round at No. 31.
A mobile defender, Howe made his AFL debut in the ninth round of the 2015 season.[2] On a wet day in Launceston he was named as substitute, replacing Cyril Rioli at three quarter time.
In November 2015, Howe extended his contract to play for Hawthorn for an additional two years.[2]
In July 2018, Howe received a five-game ban for his conduct in a Round 18 game against Carlton.[3] He was given a two-game ban for striking Patrick Cripps and a three-game ban for a tripping incident that left Zac Fisher with a broken leg.[4]
On 30 October 2018, Howe signed a two-year deal with Hawthorn.[5]
After 96 games, Howe was told he would not be offered a new contract for 2023 season and was subsequently delisted by Hawthorn.
North Melbourne (2023)
Howe was selected by North Melbourne in the 2023 rookie draft with selection 33. Ironically, he played his first game with his new club against his old club in Launceston, Tasmania. He played his hundredth professional game at the Gather Round tournament in South Australia against the Brisbane Lions. After eleven games with North, Howe was delisted at the end of the 2023 season.
Since being delisted Howe completed his Bachelors of Arts degree and has played for Yarrawonga in the Ovens and Murray Football League.
