it doesnt look to me like watts is the type to line players up and clean em up. if thats what you mean by physical or tought then maybe he doesnt have those things.

but it doesnt look like he will shirk a contest, he can use his pace and agility to evade instead of needing to crunch and has shown he is more than happy, and able, to take big marks in physically contested situations like packs.

why clean someone up if you can pick the ball up and step around them?

    I believe that we will take Naitanui at one!!!

    Last week.

    A conversation.

    A couple of the West Coast heavy-hitters were in Melbourne and were asked how they thought the draft would unfold. Without hesitation one of them replied "Melbourne will take Watts, because if they take Naitanui, we [WC] will have him back within three years."

    nkvd.

    100% hearsay.

    100% true.

    Give or take a preposition, comma and/or a dangling modifier.

    judging by how 'starstruck' he was at first.

    Always a bad sign.

    Yeah, I thought that was odd when I originally read it.

    WHo thinks Saint Nick is tough.... He is a great player without cleaning anyone up and I would love him in our side, I think Watts will be a similar player to him rather than someone like Brown

    Yeah, i started writing a post to that effect before i saw yours.

    It took Reiwoldt a few years to bulk up too, but he became a hulk.

  • Quote

    I know this thread is not really Reiwoldt but I reckon he's the toughest guy in footy with what he goes thru and puts in. Tough is about what's hard to do and that's not taking someone out because they're better than you.

    Watts a sandy boy

    Oswald a Sandy Man

    Oswald strangely decided to quit his post of two weeks as development coach for MFC

    Something fishy is going on?

    Perhaps Oswald disagreed with MFC on draft selcetions?? in particular number 1

    :huh:

    Suggest that you go out to your local newspaper repository and by a copy of the current edition of Inside Football which quotes Lee Harvey Oswald on Watts (twice). I think you'll find he's pretty happy with Watts and I doubt we're going to pick anyone else. Even if we do, it's not his job to recruit and if that's the reason for him pissing off (highly doubtful) then that decision is a great one!

    SHAFTY i think you will find that he has a good grasp on the talent coming through champion....... more than most i would suggest!!!!

    and i do think he would be sitting in on meetings to discuss draft choices..... yes!!!

    and i do think that perhaps that he didnt see eye to eye with the current MFC recruitin/football dept.... hence him leaving after two weeks.......

    Well done Goose. Never let important facts get in the way of idle speculation. :rolleyes:

    No need to see it now RR, Goose gave you a preview. You said yourself. Never let good facts get in the way of idle speculation.

    I did write a reply, but I think you're getting far too much of a reaction as it is.

    Back in your box princess.

    Incorrect again Goose. :lol::lol:

    I'm glad it puts a smile on your face champ. ;)

    PS. If you put your a## on the line and actually backed it up with hard facts, you wouldn't face ridicule from fellow posters.

    Moment of truth Goose, prove Naitanui is mfc's No.1 pick then.... ;)

    http://www.afl.com.au/News/NEWSARTICLE/tab...px?newsId=69782

    From the article: -

    Fremantle has not commented on its selection so we don’t know yet if they are genuinely considering Hill or just leaking information to bluff opponents.

    And bluff Goose.

    oh and for the record i hope my view on natanui is wrong.. trust me i really do... i have made that clear!!!!! so much so i would happily cop it from you and anyone else if we do go watts!!!

    Yeh right.....crystal clear. :wacko:

    If I was in Goose's position I wouldn't name a source (regardless of whether I had one).

    Understandable to cop flak for it though.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

    • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

      A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

    • CASEY: Frankston

      The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

      Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

    • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

      Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.
