Master Watts to debut for Casey Next Week

Featured Replies

Posted

According to the MFC Website JW will play with Casey next week - WATTS UP FOR CASEY DEBUT.

That seems a whole lot sooner than originally discussed.

I'm tipping a spike in the Scorpions gate takings for next week!

Hope so; they'll have to be non-MFC members though to boost the gate takings.

Match is at 7:00pm next Saturday night v Port Melbourne (who beat last year's Premiers [North Ballarat] today by 78 points).

It's our only night game for the H&A season.

Something tells me there might be a half decent crowd at the game next Saturday night...

 

I'm pretty excited about this! Where is the game? Port melbourne or Casey?

It really disappoints me that this isn't a saturday arvo game so we can't sit in the comfort of out own couch and critique and dissect his game from home. He're hoping it all goes well for him!

It's at Casey Fields @ 7:00pm under lights.

Reserves are at 4:00 pm.


what number will he be wearing this is exciting news!

He's listed as number 60 in the Scorpions team list (Casey players are numbered 1 to 45, then Melbourne players from 46 onwards)

Good Luck to him..... Hopefully he just takes the pressure in his stride.... Plenty of time to worry about tearing up the paddock later in the year..... Just enjoy the game!!

Not really, he has said he would play for Casey in 2-3 weeks in Round 1

Hope he can play good footy there, then push for senior selection in the second half of the season. But since he is playing for Casey earlier then there`s a chance If he plays good footy at Casey then he can get into the senior team earlier than expected. Can`t wait to Watts gets a run in the seniors. Like Robbo said, "The next David Neitz".


Anyone know if this will be his only game? (he goes back to school in a week or 2)

Won't he still continue to play for Casey when he goes back to school?

He may.

I know he was able to train more with the group during his school holidays (from an article/interview with Bailey) so I'm just wondering whether he'll play for Casey the next couple of weeks and then go back to the previous routine of school etc or continue to play for Casey and just train while he can

I've read somewhere that they're yet to map out exactly where he will play his footy during this season. It will be a mix of Brighton Grammar and Casey, but the club is yet to negotiate with the school from what I read.

Regardless of where he plays his footy, he'll get a debut at some stage with the Demons. You'd imagine the earliest opportunity would be during the June school holidays, after he's done his mid-year exams.


not happy cannot be there but will be waiting with baited breath for reports from casey scorp and anyone else who cares to put their thoughts on Watts and all the others

Spewing that I've got something on that day, but will be checking my iphone every two minutes for updates from Demonland.

It'll probably be the best game of football Melbourne supporters are likely to see this year.

Not just your regular phone, but your "iphone".

  • AFLW REPORT: Port Adelaide

    Well, that was a shock. The Demons 4-game unbeaten run came to a grinding halt in a tense, scrappy affair at the sunny, windy Alberton Oval, with the Power holding on for a 2-point win. The Dees had their chances—plenty of them—but couldn't convert when it mattered most. Port’s tackling pressure rattled the Dees, triggering a fumble frenzy and surprising lack of composure from seasoned players.

  • 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.
