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.

Correct me if i'm wrong but am i to understand that our number one draft pick, (who has been nothing but under whelming since the day we drafted him) is waiting to see if the club (who has been patien

The only quote - which is from his manager and not Watts himself - just says they're waiting for a coaching appointment. It says absolutely nothing of the sort regarding threats to walk. But by all me

Watts' time at Melbourne: 1. First game is played out like the second coming of Christ. He is introduced over the loudspeaker as the team runs out onto the field. He has absolutely mauled by a pack o

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
