he seems pretty mature hey! he did really well.. good answers!

funny he outlined that crazy goal he kicked in the last quarter for caseys was a fluke he was aiming for the centre!

also said he is good mates with both butcher and scully.. he paused for a second almost as if to say it would be good to have both join him in the dees..but held off haha

thanks for the heads up nugget jones!

Young Master Watts has just become the player that I would most like to haver at a dinner party. He dealt with the hosting panel with ease and almost completely free of sound bites. Yet another example of what an impressive young man he is. As Hutchinson said, he is likely to be hosting the show in a couple of years and who would doubt it. He seemed to lick his lips at the prospect of Scully and Butcher coming to the club

just saw it...

speaks very very well. He was interviewd on "TAC Cup - Future Stars" which is a new show on channel 9 (i think it might be a one off). Hosted by Hutchy.

He was asked about his program and he talked about his time management and how he has Thurdays off school. He says he didnt mean that goal for Casey, and how his eyes were looking inwards.

Talked about having two protein shakes a day.

He is good mates with scully and butcher.

Wishes sam blease the best in his recovery who just had surgery...

Watts is a fantastic media peformer. Lets hope he is as impressive at AFL level - but I have no doubts he will be a champion based on what I have seen of him so far - Elite junior at both Basketball and AFL - not to mention leadership skills!

Can't remember, but the whole program looks to be a weekly fluff piece.

All filler, very little real content.

Terribly boring interviews with kids that act like a deer-in-headlights.

The most you could possible glean is a name, position and see a couple of poorly packaged highlights.

Let's hope it improves, but when you think about it, how can it?

They have little to work with other than hype and all they seem to do is make it more apparent that this is all it is.

Its also important to remember that it is a TAC Cup show -- they are only focusing on Victorian kids.

When you consider the top 10 from last year's draft - 4 from WA, 2 from SA - it only highlights how pointless this program is.

have no idea what you guys are on about. It had a ripping interview with Jack Watts (the best Watts interview that's been done), a good interview with Sam Mitchell, as well as a funny bloopers clip from his recent tv commercial...not to mention footage of Watts at the aps game, footage of butcher on the weekend as well as Christensen...footage that is practically unavailable anywhere else. loved the show

Well then you are easily pleased and content isn't on your list of priorities.

Mitchell told you nothing insightful in that interview (he has come a long way since a junior? really? wow), seconds of poor footage from APS and TAC Cup games that showed nothing of any players football ability, and then it turned into a 15minute infomercial for TAC. Tell me - whats their new slogan again..?

Obviously you just enjoy getting sucked in with the hype.

The only bit of real interest was the brief Watts interview and being able to glean a couple of extra names to keep an eye on.

You probably like So You Think You Can Dance and Fattest Loser too, with all their contrived drama and minimal substance.

Anyway, I shouldn't complain, if I don't like it, I just won't watch it - I'm just disappointed its an hour of my life I'll never get back.

That and the fact I should've known better.

Kobi Stevens from Gippsland Power and Jordy Gysberts from Eastern Rangers.

Interesting call on Gysberts.

Almost a 100% guarantee to be drafted but there's a lot of people around that don't think his "AFL potential" quite lives up to his U18 record.

Still a good player though

    REDEEM by Meggs

    How will Mick Stinear and his dwindling list of fit and available Demons respond to last week’s 65-point capitulation to the Bombers, the team’s biggest loss in history?   As a minimum he will expect genuine effort from all of his players when Melbourne takes on the GWS Giants at Ikon Park this Thursday.  Happily, the ground remains a favourite Melbourne venue of players and spectators alike and will provide an opportunity for the Demons to redeem themselves. Injuries to star play

    EASYBEATS by Meggs

    A beautiful sunny Friday afternoon, with a light breeze and a strong Windy Hill crowd set the scene, inviting one team to seize the day and take the important four points on offer. For the Demons it was not a good Friday, easily beaten by an all-time largest losing margin of 65 points.   Essendon threw themselves into action today, winning most of the contests and had three early goals with Daria Bannister on fire.  In contrast the Demons were dropping marks, hesitant in close and comm

    DEFUSE THE BOMBERS by Meggs

    Last Saturday’s crushing loss to Fremantle, after being three goals ahead at three quarter time, should be motivation enough to bounce back for this very winnable Round 5 clash at Windy Hill. A first-time venue for the Melbourne AFLW team, this should be a familiar suburban, windy, footy environment for the players.   Essendon were brave and competitive last week against ladder leader Adelaide at Sturt’s home ground. A familiar name, Maddison Gay, was the Bombers best player with

    BLOW THE SIREN by Meggs

    Fremantle hosted the Demons on a sunny 20-degree Saturdayafternoon winning the toss and electing to defend in the first quarter against the 3-goal breeze favouring the Parry Street end. There was method here, as this would give the comeback queens, the Dockers, last use of the breeze. The Melbourne Coach had promised an improved performance, and we did start better than previous weeks, winning the ball out of the middle, using the breeze advantage and connecting to the forwards.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los
