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.

"Checking my iphone"

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

  • POSTGAME: Carlton

    A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.

  • PREVIEW: Carlton

    Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.
