Demons' Jack Watts ready to take on the elite

Featured Replies

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.

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....

You drive a hard bargain Ben - but no.

Seem to have got you down from the 40s though.

20, 61 and a couple of pygmies ?

I hope so.

Maybe the kid doesn't ask for the spotlight. The club knows everyone is interested.

Yeah Jack Watts' i's 'great.'' '''

an' that.

I think you'll find it's 'dat'.


Nurse!

Happy to contribute to the debate:

I reckon Jack Watts could surprise or disappoint.

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

good, as have i. Wanna hit the pub? I hear the Royal's lovely this time of year.

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.

Light as a feather.

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.

Happy to contribute to the debate:

I tend to agree and disagree in equal measure.

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

  • CASEY: Frankston

    The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.
