This thread has gone horribly askew.......

[praha 11,240]

It was a joke people. As if to say we MIGHT be hyping him up over nothing, or that he might not even have an opportunity on the day to make the hype worth it.

Some people take things too personally me thinks.

Quite the fisherman.

Jesus, it'd want to be good to be worth sitting through that god-awful Turning Japanese parody about Ben Cousins.

If you were to hit the Chaser boys over the head, five hundred times, with a claw-hammer, you'd get the Footy Show writers.

Terry wallace likes to honestly answer the hard questions.

Go away you sponge. What a waste of time!

[agent 99 71]

Bring on Jack!!!!!!!!!

[agent 99 71]

Jack Watts " The MCG is OUR home ground".

I'm so big Kev right now!

[45HG 1,539]

I hear that when Jack Watts goes swimming he doesn't get wet, the water gets Jack Wattsed

I've heard that everytime he blinks, the Melbourne Football Club signs a new member.

[JJJ 1,303]

was there anything of interest to report?

[agent 99 71]

Crop circles are just Jack Watts saying that ,sometimes corn just needs to lay the f**k down.

My friend asked me about the swine flu thing, and I tired using the Chuck Norris analysis (you know, Jack Watts doesn't get swine flu, swine flu gets Jack Wattsed), but they didn't get it.

Stupid inbred Carlton supporters!

That has to be the most painful two hours of my life, and the five minute interview they had with Jack was hardly worth it. The kid is awesome, but the Footy Show is a disgrace!

was there anything of interest to report?

Well his mum is a nurse, and had a swine flu scare, so they tested her, and had to wait for the blood test results to come through before they could make the announcement that Watts was playing (and Watts himself also had to wait). Apparently they were going to announce it on Monday and try to plug the game a bit... don't think the two day delay has hurt the publicity though :D

Lucky it's not every time he sleeps - because Jack Watts never sleeps...he waits.

Jaded, you spoke to a Carlton fan?

Fairly stock-standard for anyone who didn't see it. When asked if he's ready for AFL footy, said he felt that he was ready to play HFF or on the wing, but not to play KP. My favorite part of the interview was when Gary asked him if, since joining Melbourne, he's developed an appreciation of the proud history and tradition of the club. Said it was a "great honor" to play for Melbourne, and that (I'm paraphrasing, mind you) "the MCG is our home ground, and hopefully in the next few years we can get back to where we once were, when other teams FEARED to go to the MCG and play Melbourne".

There was more, but nothing too memorable. That said, he gives a very good account of himself, is obviously very mature and intelligent for his age, and will be a great spokesman for the club in years to come.
