Watts out

Featured Replies

Dunn in for Watts

I'd like to see either Magner or Couch in this week.

Fitzy next week for me...

 

Just as he starts to look good, maybe a couple of weeks off will do his mind some good, see if he is desperate to get back or not

Everyone is expecting us to get belted, i wouldn't be happy but i'd accept 40 points and a good effort from the boys, a win would be fantastic but it would take our best game for the year by some way and carlton off their game abit

 

Big thrashing coming up for Neeld....

Seriously WYL, you're the fourth post in to a thread about Jack Watts...

Getting boring. There are whole threads about this coming round where you can post your predictions and opinions.

Pity, I was hoping to see how he performed with Dawes in the forward line

Starts to look good??? What? A couple of goals in a half of footy from chest marks, one was out of bounds when he marked it.

Got dropped after getting subbed the other week. I'd hate to see bad if Watts was looking good

This is crunch time for Neeld. We lose by 100 again and then next week comes Gold Coast....

I don't understand why you constantly refer to the MFC as "your" club. Are we not all supporters here of our club. Maybe why there is constant sniping from you because it isn't "your" club.

I wouldn't get so excited about whether I am using a possessive adjective or a pronoun - I am just stipulating that the glee with which wyl talks about Neeld's Thrashings are occuring at wyl's club, and my club, and your club, and our club.

Understand?

And don't call me a sniper.

No.......Not just Neeld.....maybe the club??/.......But either you are a part of the club or you're not.......It's not just the coach....

Watts not playing will have zero effect on the result.

Amen, could almost have a positive result if he was planning on playing backline

Rubbish, our losing margin just went down.

That's the spirit. Way to support a player of ours who just turned 22.

Don't any of you DARE ever talk about "culture".

Weak.

If Neeld consider CWS & Melbourne to be at the same stage of development, then GC should start favourites.

GC have a better midfield than Melbourne.

Comparing the two teams, GC are slightly on top.

Stuie.....Just wondering why you give young Jack the benefit of the doubt but wont give the same time to Neeld.????????

Agree with you stuie... great way to support your club & player there.

Kid gets injured and you celebrate, p*ss poor form

Fair question. In my opinion (which I know differs to some), Jack has potential and Neeld does not.

What are you on about. Get off your high horse. If we can't talk about players who are underperforming and call it how we see it then what's the point.

And I've got no idea what age has to do with laying a tackle or putting your head over the ball you can figure that one out for me.

And what about culture. The culture of the MFC and the culture of this board are completely different things. I go to games and cheer the guys on to give all they have. I pay my membership and vote if i feel the need to vote on the board.

I know you were impressed with Watts when he went forward and think the rest of his game was good. I disagree but you can't argue his game against GWS was poor or any of his other games this year have been outstanding.

Watts has every tool required to start the year just like a Dean Terlich has. Instead he's floated around and genuinely not played at all well.

I never said I was happy he was injured. I wanted him to have yet another chance this week to impress me and failing that go back to the VFL. But I don't want him injured.

I suspect he'll be eternally grateful for you pointing out the bleeding obvious.

It's funny that we all have our favourites....I too think Watts will become a very good player but I think that what Neeld has started will also come to be good for the footy club.......

Yeah you're right, you pay your membership, so that gives you a right to constantly put down one of our young players trying to find form in a very poorly performing team.

Agree with you stuie... great way to support your club & player there.

No one is celebrating. Other like myself just don't think Watts is best 22. I bet everyone would rather him playing either in the VFL or AFL than injured.

FFS the quicker everyone sees Watts as just another player rather than a special case the better.

He's actually not one of my favourites at all, I just feel for the bloke and how much he has copped, a lot of which has come from so called "supporters".

This is actually the crux of the matter, for both sides.

No signing up this forum does unless I break the rules. And maybe we won't be a poorly performing team when we stop handing out special treatment letting a number 1 draft pick bounce around positions and never establish himself as a player.

We "LET HIM bounce around positions" do we?

 

Why do some posters feel the need to tell other forum users how they should support.

I'll please my frigging self.

Try Pederson at full forward, lets see what he is made of.

  • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

    Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

  • PREGAME: St. Kilda

    With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

  • REPORT: Richmond

    Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.

  • POSTGAME: Richmond

    The Dees ran another clinic for the second week in a row as they easily accounted for the Tigers in the lightning interrupted shortened match at Mars Stadium in Ballarat.

  • GAMEDAY: Richmond

    It's Game Day and the 2026 AFL Premiership season is almost upon us as the Demons take to the field for their final practice match before the first ball is kicked in anger in 16 days time. What are you expecting to see from the Dees today as they take on the Tigers at Mars Stadium in Ballarat?
