Jack Watts panelist on The Footy Show tonight

Featured Replies

Nothing exciting. Haven't met Neeld, haven't met Misson. WIll tomorrow. And he also picked WCE over Geelong.

Footy show - thats about all that happens....

 

Missed the show, what else was said??

The team meets Neeld tomorrow.

Newman referred to us as the Titanic

Some crap about Gary

good luck to the kid

 

Has already shown to be more comfortable in front of the camera than any Melbourne player i can remember in the past 10 years on the footy show. Go Jack


Just said Dawes was out of contract at the end of the season and looked sly about it......

 

Just got hushed by Garry Lyon when he mentioned that Chris Dawes was coming out of contract....is there smoke here?

No Doubt we are into Chris Dawes bigtime after that exchange.

Jack Watts is that polished tonight he could be hosting the show


Honestly, if this Club manages to snare Chris Dawes, it'll be the biggest signing since, since, Moore and Templeton?

Must be some sort of a legend this Dawes character....

Agreed, this Dawes bloke must of kicked 50+ goals at least once before...?

He has a gun midfield feeding him and gets the 2nd best defender...

Give me Fev anyday.

Jack said - I'm really looking forward to Neeld coming. "With a game plan and structures in place we can't help but improve." Just a bit damning of DB!

Must be some sort of a legend this Dawes character....

He's pretty good, big and strong and could become better if he was the main big bloke up forward, we need someone just like him, only 23 as well.

Fev's finished

Just to stir the pot, I did notice that Jack and BJ looked very chummy on the panel...

Pardon my ignorance, but who is BJ? I haven't watched the show in years, so I don't know the regular player panelists

If BJ is Brendan Goddard ( BG) it's no wonder I couldn't work out who he is ! As I said, pardon my ignorance. (no offense to RM , perhaps BJ was a typo ? )


not a typo. its 'bj'. well known actually...

He's a very relaxed media performer and I'm sure TFS people can see that, but the last thing I would like to see is Watts becoming a regular on that 'nudge, nudge, wink, wink', mindless piece of carp. I watched the first twenty minutes last night to see how he went. On the odd occasion that i watch it I feel a mixture of shame and embarrassment (that I am watching it) and anger at the culture it perpetuates.

Funny how jack said that the whole club had changed since neeld's arrival, yet jack is yet to meet the coach.

My only fear re Dawes is that he may be another Miller... shows a lot of promise but is unable to deliver it except for a few all too infrequent glimpses. Then again, I still believe he is definitely worth a go.

I haven't met Neeld either but I know the club has changed quite a bit since he has arrived...

  • PREVIEW: Hawthorn

    Melbourne and Hawthorn who face off against each other this week have more in common than having once almost merged and about to wear a blue jumper with a red v triangle and an embroidered picture of a bird on the front. They also share the MCG as their main home ground, their supporters are associated with the leafy suburbs of Melbourne and in recent times, James Frawley graced the colours of both teams. Even more recently, both have bounced back from disastrous five game losing streaks to start off a season. Of course, the Hawks turned their bounce into a successful leap from the bottom of the ladder into a finals appearance, making it to the semifinals in 2024 and this year, they’re riding high in third place on the AFL table. The Demons are just three games into their 2025 bounce back, and are yet to climb their way out of the bottom four although they are sitting a game and percentage out of the top eight. However, with the current sportsbet odds of $3.90 to win this week’s encounter, it seems a forlorn hope that their upward progression will continue much longer.

  • REPORT: West Coast

    On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

  • POSTGAME: West Coast

    Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.
