In terms of trading Watts I don't see it as being about Watts - more that we have many options in defense and in the forward 50 already so where does young Jack fit?

we need run and mids like a man needs a drink after 4 days lost 400kms from Alice Springs.

Me three..... Reckon there are quite a few Demonlanders from the APS system, certainly the old breeding ground of demon followers, what's worse is I do drive a land rover (with a stereotypical liitle square demon jumper sticker!) and love skiing...... :)

Blacky High boy here.

Played against Mark Lee and Dale Weightman when they were playing for Melbourne High.

They towelled us, but I got a few in!

Wouldn't be unfair if they suspended it to all except about 5 players this season.

And Watts wouldn't be one of them... :cool:

Unreal,is this where we slag off Watts because he is not Fijian and bag his ticker?

Sadly, he's our best player.

He is worth about 350-400 a year.

You DO mean Dollars not Thousands of dollars ??? Just "arksking" :)

Every Time Watts is mentioned he reminds me of three characters out of the wizard of Oz who are looking for three things

Lets hope the Melb Football Club can find our own Wizard (Coach) who can help Watts find what he is looking for ! :unsure:

Anyone considered that maybe we just havnt offered him a contract yet as he is prime trade bait and his manager is trying to twist the tables in the media abit to raise his profile?

Are you trying to say that the club is growing some kahonas??

Agree with Breretons assessment, Watts hasn't earned the right to hold the club to ransom.

If he thinks he needs to leave, make sure we get a decent trade as he is not likely to find any courage on the way out the door.

Hey Jackie boy keep playing like that and you want have to wait Please at least try and look interested even if you are not

Trade Watts? If we can get something decent, I won't lose any sleep.

I reckon his career will just be like a set of waves at the beach. He'll have his ups but mostly downs, today being a prime example. He isn't a leaders shoelace and his intensity and passion is just deplorable. Jack Watts just makes me angry now.

Pls trade this [censored] hearted soft football player..

Have always stood up for Watts, and I do still hope he stays and gets it going, but he was PATHETIC today.

Today he played like the Watts that everyone who doesn't rate him thinks he plays like.

Watts was good in the first half and average in the second half.

Not Robinson Crusoe either.

Still in our best today easily.

This isn't the humour thread.

Cam Ling just said an offer has been made to Watts from Carlton. I say don't play him for the rest of the year if he can't commit verbally. Time to take a stand.

Three Number 1 picks isnt enough?

We Ll take Murphy thanks.

How not so strange...eh Mick !!

Watts on offer Mick ?? Even I will listen to offers now.

If Watts want to go Freo/Carlton, they have to offer us their first rounder and or a player. We need to start being like Collingwood and demanding a good trade!

That's the spirit.

I just mean it doesn't look like he wants to play for us, he has probably been treated fairly poorly on the most part unfortunately, if he walks i don't think it would be the end of the world.

Clearly not.

I'm sure you will see to that.

HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today.

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
