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.

you need the killer instinct, to have the nasty edge to do what it takes. jack is just too nice a boy.

People are bagging Frawley for his pathetic attack on the ball in the 2nd half of the season saying he has 'checked out'.

Its a cancer in a team and causes others to say 'why should I be bothered chasing when my team mates don't' blah blah.

Watts has been doing the same (but for different reasons). heart/desire/effort/intent/intensity - take your pick.

He has to go.

Amazed at how many posters dont understand cancer that infiltrates a team,And how hard it is to get rid of.

Dont forget JW played a good quarter one day this year.Maybe it will reproduce itself next year.

PR,im sure will cut out the cancer with no emotion whatsoever.If not we are rooted.

I should have included another choice in the original question.

Keep , unless a really good trade is offered

That is ..might as well keep him unless something just too tempting is placed on the table.

I dont expect any to do so , but I'll add it and if any want to change their vote they can.Its still a "keep'" just with a rider :)

so you haven't really got the results you wanted? So you'd like to change the poll so you do...lol... Maybe your way of thinking is just not the way the majority here think...

youre an angry little man arent you

DC summed it up well.

If you were capable youd understand it was simply a choice not offered where as it ought to hace been I.e correcting an error.

It wasn't about suggesting or imposing a view more about seeing what the board thought.

Watts has always divided supporters and this bears it out. Really as simple as that.

he has been pushing hard for a jack watts trade, for a while now... Then he made this poll, where the result opposes his view and now he'd like add new options?

I suppose it could be merely a coincidence...lol...

If Jack has a good game tonight, opinion will sway again. If he has a poor game, more people will rule a line through him.

People change their view on Watts like no other player. The "swinging vote" is probably sitting at about 40% plus (not on this poll, but on how he is viewed generally)

Many of us are torn between his potential and his actual output. He gets a lot more leeway because he was the no.1 pick and because Roos has tried to take the pressure off him (previously)

Also, he's one of the best "kick to position" players on the list amongst a sea of poor disposers of the ball. The other important aspect is what we would get for him in a trade. We're almost compelled to keep him.

It certainly does Macca. Hence a poll on him as opposed many an other player.

Strangely and probably to a supporter all could not want more than Watts to play a screamer. It is after all about team success not individuals per se.

oh no! he's got an opinion :o

I was going to suggest we trade Watts to the Saints for a pack of Skittles and a can of Coke but I realise now that's way overs

maybe a skittle?

should have been dropped after the Swans game 4 months ago

Opposition players just laugh at him, he is a joke. Least respected player in the AFL

So far short of a decent AFL footballer. Trading him isn't the answer to all our woes, but if we can get a pick in the early second round for him it is a step in right direction.

I agree. I don't think Watts will make it.

He is slow off the mark. For a guy who tested well in the draft camp - he has shown very little of most attributes he excelled in.

    There were a number of Demonland Trackwatchers at Gosch's Paddock this morning to bring you their observations from Preseason Training. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS They were going hard at each other. The sims were in two 15 minute blocks. The second block finished a few minutes early, they gathered and had another 7 minutes at it. I think they were asked to compete, as they would play against an opposition. There was plenty of niggle, between some of them. At the end o

    Better late than never … and quite frankly, there’s very little to report other than that training took place at Casey Fields this morning, that Tracc was there nursing his rib injury and that some photographs are on the club’s social media including this one of Clarrie in Raging Bull stance that gives rise for confidence. The other news is that the club has a new train on player in 185cm Dandenong Stingrays midfielder Noah Hibbins-Hargreaves (love the hyphenated name which is just so fitti

    Welcome back to Demonland for those like me who have been on vacation. I’m posting this with some trepidation because of a certain amount of uncertainty surrounding the return of preseason training in 2025 after a flurry of weddings including those of our coach, one of our superstar players and a former premiership champion player and bloke, not to mention the recent mysterious incident that occurred on the Mornington Peninsula.  I believe that the team reassembles this morning at Casey Fie

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to
