Plus i'd say the leadership group.. not sure who else

That can't happen under the AFL rules, only the expansion teams were able to do it when they first entered the competition

lol.... Doesnt mean it hasn't happened....

maybe resign might be the right word here.... I am a supporter of Watts... But I've heard that he is already commited to another team....

He can commit all he wants but unless that team is GWS or he is prepared to leave to go to a team down the bottom of the ladder then the team he may have committed to has to deal with s favourably.

This is our best our best chance of seeing if Watts can become the player we all want him to become. As much as it may pain some posters on here, we need to take Roos at his word and trust that when he says Watts is an important player for the club he knows what he's talking about.

There's lots of other poorly skilled dead wood on the list that needs to go before Watts.

Not my favourite player, but let's see what he can do for a couple of years with an experienced, successful practitioner at the helm.

I don't understand why somebody would verbally commit to another team during the season? I just don't see the advantage in it, or why it would occur?

new start

guaranteed contract price

chance to play finals

stable environment

6 years of rubbish,maybe

value in your stock at the time

other than that , maybe the new club has to make their list final and their trades ready

Hopefully Little Lord Fauntleroy will now agree to stay. However, it would be nice if Roos pulled him aside and told him we want him to play for us on the proviso that he is not a massive soft [censored].

Love it that Watts thinks he is so friggin' important that he needs to be spoken to by the new coach before Roos had signed. If Watts wasn't a number one draft pick no one would care that he is out of contract. This is like Jack Fitzpatrick coming out saying he needs to know who the next coach is before he re-signs. I'm a fan of Watts and I have defended him many times but he is starting to annoy me.

think hes already done that

and the hun this morning alludes to that also

"but he would play better and go in and get the hard ball now that r"o"os is coach"

don't you think he would be tuffer now that paul is here,yeah I do rrrrrrrrrrrrr

ppppfffftttt,you cant shovel gutz into cowards

Jazz a, I just think he may never has the intensity required to play a huge role for us. Hope I'm wrong. I watched the match last night and every one of those players were making second and third efforts as if their life depended on it.

Funnily enough, I don't think our improvement next year is as tied in with the likes of Watts and to a lesser extent Sylvia as it is with taking blokes like Pickles Evans and Fitz to the next step. For mine, Fitz is our Westoff ( in style and appearance) and Evans is a ball magnet hampered by injury.

    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.

    TRAINING: Wednesday 13th November 2024

    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

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.
