Demons' Jack Watts ready to take on the elite


Romey

Recommended Posts

I'm being facetious, as I'm trying to cling to any positives I can find.

2014 is the Year of the Horse....Longmire (Horse) coaches Swans....Roos coached Swans = premiership....Roos coaches Dees = premiership? *Sigh* Mebbe for Longmire.

increase medication now

MAN, we have all been analysing, critiquing, discussing, booing, cheering, applauding, hypothesising, supporting and disregarding this kid since the day his name was read out by the club as the number 1 draft pick. I think it's time we just let the kid play and move on.

I have!

He does after all getto bag a healthy swag for all that he does .

He's not new to this and he has the ingredients of a very good player.. The Soufle has yet to rise....sts.

Dear Demonland, firstly you have no sense of humour, secondly the footy hasn't started yet, lighten up, I suppose you think you speak for everyone maybe we should have a poll

Mebbe the kid should just get out of the media spotlight and play footy?

I'm sure he'd like to do that, I don't think he requested he be under the media spotlight....

Then again, maybe the media spotlight might help him find a bit of mongrel somewhere....

Happy to contribute to the debate:

I reckon Jack Watts could surprise or disappoint.

Profound observational and interpretative skills, Roger. And I totally agree.

The Royal Mail at Dunfeld? Or somewhere closer to Melbourne?

Machsy, if we get rid of those who go off topic who are the overly smug going to complain about? A case in point: I thought Watts and Pendlebury played different positions in basketball. I was wrong but, as quick as you like, you were there to label me a twit. I have no problem with that but If we follow the letter of the law re abusing others, I'd have to think you'd have a spell on the sidelines. To tell you the truth, relentlese teeth grinders such as yourself shite me to tears. It's a footy forum.

Have a great day.

There's plenty to complain about.

You weren't even aiming to be funny when you said Pendlebury & Watts played different positions in basketball.

But the point is, you were slating a player, and the opinions of others, based on something you clearly knew nothing about.

I'd expect to be labelled a twit under the same circumstances.

If we followed the letter of the law, half the posters on this forum would be banned daily.

Including both of us.

I don't grind my teeth, but I find your attempts at humour along with your mates on this forum to be utterly pathetic.

I like humour, but FCS, put some intellect into it.

Apology accepted

Now can we get back to flogging the dead horse that is Jack Watts likely position/potential/physical assets and perceived lack of toughness.

I could train a robot to write various cliches about him to keep on topic and within the rigid structures people have come to expect from this neatly arranged site.

But then Machsy and Co would be redundant.

Long live any "utterly pathetic attempts at humour" in the middle of January when the latest real news we have had from the club is "the boys went training in 42 degree heat and used a fridge on a truck to cool down between drills."

Life as we know it does not depend on the verity and sincerity of every posters intimate thoughts on Jack Watts progress as a player, or lack thereof.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 17 vs West Coast

    It’s game day and the Demons return to Melbourne to play the Eagles at the MCG for the first time in over a decade. A win keeps the Dees finals hopes alive whereas a loss will almost certainly slam the finals window shut.

    CROSSROADS by The Oracle

    Melbourne stands at the crossroads.  Sunday’s game against the West Coast Eagles who have not met the Demons at the MCG in more than ten years, is a make or break for the club’s finals aspirations.  That proposition is self-evident since every other team the club will be opposed to over the next eight weeks of footy is a prospective 2024 finalist. To add to this perspective is the fact that while the Demons are now in twelfth position on the AFL table, they are only a game and a half b

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well

    POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Brisbane

    The Demons once again went goalless in the last quarter and were run down by the Lions at the Gabba in the final minutes of the match ultimately losing the game by 5 points as their percentage dips below 100 for the first time since 2020.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 16 vs Brisbane

    It's Game Day and the Dees are deep in the heart of enemy territory as they take on the Lions in Brisbane under the Friday Night Lights at the Gabba. Will the Demon finally be awakened and the season get back on track or will they meekly be sacrificed like lambs to the slaughter?
