Could jack watts win our best and fariest

Fair chance. I'd say it says alot about our leaders though.

I think he will definitely finish top 5, may finish top 3 but probably wont win. In saying that though, I would love it if he did win in front of one the older, front running, players like Moloney.

He won't poll in the first four games, which will make it very hard. He may be the highest poller from then on, but i doubt he could actually win it.

Few have been as consistent as him. He should poll well

At last year's B&F I got Jack to sign my ticket for me. I told him I'd bring it back and get him to sign it again when he won the B&F. I hope he wins it this year, the first of many awards he'll win. And he'll be our captain... he's showing all the attributes of a born leader.

From the MFC website... Mark Williams' rundown of our Round 20 players. It reinforces what many are saying on Demonland:

Jack Watts: Jack was probably our best player. He kicked two goals and had 21 possessions. He also took nine marks. When he was in offence, he was lively, and presented really well. And when he was down back, he took some solid intercept marks under immense pressure. He directed play very well by switching play, and with his run and carry. He has had a very consistent season.

Moloney, Jones, Watts, Trengove, Frawley or musical chairs with those 5.

Opposition supporters have certainly calmed down on the Watts bagging this season. I think Jack is starting to scare them a little. Big 2012 for him.

Not sure about the fariest. He's no fairy.

I reckon he'd be a shot at top 3 to 5 in the best and fairest, though. Lot's of good and very good games, but not enough BOG performances (probably only two or three, including last week) to take it out.

Moloney will win it, even though he's had some shockers he had a great first half to the year. Watts will be in top 5 maybe.

Lot's of players who have only had partial 'good years'.

Moloney no doubt thereabouts. Jones for his consistency. Martin for not only really stepping up in simple quality, but also for (IMO) playing quite a hard-woking team game in general. Watts would be up there, so would Trengove who has quietly gone about being solid over and over.

Jordie McKenzie if he'd played a full season, gien the votes are coaches votes.

Damn... the process of thinking this through has really highlighted how many people we've had out with injury for long periods or who have been waaaay down on form.

Will there be any more than one or two carry-overs from last year's B&F to this one?

    FROZEN by Whispering Jack

    Who would have thought?    Collingwood had a depleted side with several star players out injured, Max Gawn was in stellar form, Christian Petracca at the top of his game and Simon Goodwin was about to pull off a masterstroke in setting Alex Neal-Bullen onto him to do a fantastic job in subduing the Magpies' best player. Goody had his charges primed to respond robustly to the challenge of turning around their disappointing performance against Fremantle in Alice Springs. And if not that, t

    TURNAROUND by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons won their first game at home this year in the traditional King’s Birthday Weekend clash with Collingwood VFL on Sunday in a dramatic turnaround on recent form that breathed new life into the beleaguered club’s season. The Demons led from the start to record a 52-point victory. It was their highest score and biggest winning margin by far for the 2024 season. Under cloudy but calm conditions for Casey Fields, the home side, wearing the old Springvale guernsey as a mark of res

    POSTGAME: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    Once again inaccuracy and inefficiency going inside 50 rears it's ugly head as the Demons suffered their second loss on the trot and their fourth loss in five games as they go down to the Pies by 38 points on Kings Birthday at the MCG.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    It's Game Day and the Demons are once again faced with a classic 8 point game against a traditional rival on King's Birthday at the MCG. A famous victory will see them reclaim a place in the Top 8 whereas a loss will be another blow for their finals credentials.

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an
