    Indeed they will.

    Watts will be a buzzword in the AFL , even if he has a few shockers .

    There is an electricity about him ever since he came on the circuit .

    Whether hes on or off , Watts is a power-player.

    Does he have current form or are we looking for a spark from him?

    As long as his form isn't just static

    I think he could provide an alternate current to goal unless he plays deep in which case he could be a direct current .

    Agree he needs to switch on .

    Could be a lamp lighter for us .

    Just needs proper supply .

    Ohm my god! Usually I will just switch off, but I must say it's good to see a thread that is generating positive energy as opposed to all of the negatives we usually see on here.

    # PS: Top picture, a characature of Watts, Trenners & the Skunk after the 2008 draft.

    Howe times move on.

    OK, so the deer is Watts, the rabbit is Trengove and the skunk is, er, gone. So who's the butterfly? I'll say it's Jaded.

    Maybe he needs to transform the way he conducts himself .

    Away from the puns - did anyone watch AFL 360 last night with Hall and Mooney ? They talked about KPP's and especially as forwards and how it took it both of them until 23 until they really could see what was coming at them from down the field and how it took that long until they felt comfortable in the position. They also mentioned that players like Franklin and Carey who matured very early were not the norm.

    I understand that and my expectation is that the improvement that Jack made in the middle part of season becomes the norm and his better games improves further than that.

    My criticism of our players is that they may show us something quite early on what they could be but dont continue to improve and take that next step. At various stages Sylvia, Bad-mo-boy and Bate to name but three have shown plenty and then stagnated or gone backwards.

    I'm putting it out there - I am not convinced we draft poorly - I think we have failed to develop players.

    Whoever it is, it's paying a little too much attention to Bambi's butt for my liking.

    What's with the surge in negativity?

    No idea. I believe he will be one of our most postive charges on the circuit this year.

    i think there is some truth in that. Why though, is not so easy to explain

    must be a short circuit somewhere?

    Edit: to add compulsory pun

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
