Jack Watts Keep or Trade ?? The Poll

[Fork 'em 6,983]

and is a pretty good mark when his on song.

He can mark.

When he's 5meters in the clear.

Prefers to avoid contested situations altogether.

Never seen him on song though.

[Bobby McKenzie 2,385]

I just dont get why anyone wouldn't want to keep him

Simply because he is one of a handful of players with skills on our list. Not every team member has to an aggressive bull with very poor disposal. Every team needs outside as well as inside players. I think Jack's defensive game is on the improve. A lot more tackles starting to happen.

if I was to make a prediction :

No, that's not a prediction BB, just a personal hope.

[beelzebub 23,376]

not entirely.. Mouse still favours him I think , and his ego is such that Im sure he thinks he can extract the gold no one else has to yet.

[dee-luded 2,959]

I'd trade Jack Watts Now if I could for a swap with Chris Yarran, as I suggested around this time last season.

trade for me, for any good Win/Win trade.

[What 18,810]

He probably should have been dropped a couple of times this seaosn

I think Roos has kept him in the team to keep his value as high as it can be, knowing full well he will trade him

[dee-luded 2,959]

if I was to make a prediction :

Nice, nice fit to BB.

very nice

[Coq au vin 755]

Nice, nice fit to BB.

very nice

interesting quotes from Roos at the foot of the post. Not much has been acceptable lately.

We all say JW should have been dropped at times this year but if we are honest who would we replace him with who do any better?

The cardboard is bare .

We might as well keep playing him

when making a principled stand you would play a one legged player first if the principle demanded it to introduce the value system. the tail has to stop rocking the dog, the tail has to learn that wagging isn't fun without the big platform from which to wag.

no, not really, but I wouldn't mind being taught comedy. is that what I right analogies. I find it easier to get a concept across that way.

I think george la pell just earnt himself a job anywhere anytime, as a freight consultant with integrity ? or a truck driver. Older women will be safer having him about, that is for sure.

lol. i dunno d-l there is a few blue rinsers in burwood who still think gorgeous george is the bees' knees

It's all about trust. When you're on the footy field, or any other sporting field, you need to be able to look at the guy next to you and see he is giving his all. When it's your time to go, you go hard. That creates a special bond between players. Jack Watts is not an AFL footballer. He's a touch footballer where tackling and physicality are not necessary.

In a team that wins more than it loses his touch could be the bond.

I drift from one side to the other with Jack, but as of this second, I think our current lack of team affords some time, the idea being, that as we get really good, the ducks will line up.

[Dr. Gonzo 24,216]

If he hasn't learned by now that body contact won't kill him and he has to keep his feet I don't think he will. Would make a standout state league/ammo player but you need more than talent to make it in the pros - you need the mentality and he does not have it.

What good are his elite foot skills when he's always looking to offload the ball with dinky handballs? You need more than one string to your bow and most players with elite foot skills also need to take the game on and break the lines with their attack. He doesn't do that at all and always runs to the contest/ball instead of running through it.

That's all Carltank need -another flaky forward
