Thats another.

I just can't picture Watts spending much time there.

Nor can I but I can't agree that we have an abundance of HBF. In fact at draft time I was hoping we'd pick one up so we could release Grimes to midfield duties.

We are fortunate that Frawley and Garland can play small but the majority that you list are totally unproven.

Having said that, Watts on a HBF is a strange suggestion to me. I can deal with a high half forward and maybe a few short stints in the midfield but I can't see the benefit of HBF. He's a forward, the teams need him to play there and he needs the practice.

As opposed to Watts, who is largely unproven, but also a forward..?

Think you had a "reading the whole post" failure there E.

I did reply before reading the entire post, but then afterwards I read the rest and thought the comment should still stand.

Sometimes he just looks terrified to have a shot on goal, but we'll see less and less of that as he gains experience. Purely a confidence thing. And no, I'm not questioning his decision making or anything, I have a brand new jumper with #4 on the back and I have as much faith in the kid as anyone. He'll be a gun.

Terrified to have a shot? Never.

He doesn't lack any confidence in goal-kicking. Not sure where you gleaned this from.

Probably just looking for a better option, which he often does and rightly so.

If you were responding to me I don't understand.

You said we had plenty of HBF, that was the comment I was referring to. Where does Watts fit into that?

I don't know anymore.

Easier to move on...

The only testing that I take note of is in games.

I want to see Watts use this pace with the ball in his hands consistently.

e25, I think you were of the same opinion as Baghdad Bob several weeks ago at draft time. Because I was of the same opinion being a bit thin on halfbacks.

Jacobs ??

ring any bells ?

Yeah, definitely, but not now that we have recruited a handful of that type.

I'm not sure Watts belongs on a HBF.

If not up forward, then on a wing.

I may have said otherwise earlier, but I've obviously changed my mind on the matter.

I dont think watts belongs at half back, but i think he could do well there and it might be good for his development to spend a bit of time there next year

I don't think he's terrified to have a shot but do wish he'd be more selfish at times .

Often looks for better options when a ping at the sticks is the best option .

Should come with more confidence of his place in the side .
