Waiting for Watts to come good is like waiting for the second coming of Christ. It's never going to happen (i apologise to all believer's for both Watts and Christ). But that's not his problem, he's still gonna get extremely well paid for doing SFA, which will no doubt please both himself and his mummy.

I have it on good authority that the Dangerfield and Kennedy deals were almost over the line. All we needed was Jack Watts traded for a second rounder to complete the trades, but Roosy got wind of this thread and tore up the contract right before signing it.

Well Mahoney ain't going to come out and say he was shopped but everyone laughed in our face, is he?

No one with any sense of professionalism would say that.

He could simply have repeated the line that everyone was on the table for the right trade. He didn't. He say NO.

Watts has value to this team going forward. And I'm convinced Roos realises that.

Sorry fellas - many of you are completely wrong on this one.

Wouldn't have any reservations about that deal. Get it done.

I think Richmond might.

It is not necessary to stoop to derogatory and disrespectful references to players whether you like them or not.

It's says more about the author than the target.

And I'd rather hear intelligent and thoughtful comments about the targets ( the players).

But each to their very own.....

Rarified air up on your horse ?? No one really cares about such pomposity, but they do like to see real endeavor on a football field... Jogging half arsed and falling over doesnt inspire.

I have it on good authority that the MFC are shopping Jack Watts around, with Adelaide and Gold Coast the leading contenders.

I cannot believe we are seriously considering trading Jack.

If the MFC could properly develop Jack he will be an out and out A Grader.

Jack needs to be locked inside a gym for the whole of pre-season and force feed to build his frame.

The only thing Jack needs to be a gun is muscle and strength.

He has elite skills and elite vision.

He needs to be up around the 98 kg mark and he will dominate games as a key mobile forward.

I also have it on good authority that he doesn't want to be traded and that he wants to stay a Demon, unlike others.

As such we need to keep players that actually want to stay at the club, as this may prove difficult moving forward.

I will be furious if we trade Jack against his will when it's been our fault that we haven't been able to properly develop him to his optimum.

Great now we are stuck with Watts. Another year of pea hearted efforts and zero intensity coming up

hope youre happy

You're hardly Einstein picking out a players faults on the field.

It just doesn't need the derogatory references about player no matter how much self fulfilment it must clearly give you.

But as I said each to their own.

A win for the J Watts fans

Common sense prevails! Anyone with a tiny amount of football knowledge would not want Jack playing AGAINST us. I wonder how much footy his detractors have played and at what level?

His skills are sublime and he is improving the defensive side of his game. Think of the telling mark in defence when the Bulldogs were within a few points in the last seconds of play last season. Who was in the thick of it in the pack when the Bombers were in attack in the last 20 seconds of this years win?

The only common sense was by the other 17 sides in the competition who have shown they understand his real value.....zilch!! Don't quote 5 second involvements in play when he avoids getting involved for the rest of the game.

The opposition see what he is like, their coaches know what he is like and now after this trade period it is blindingly obvious that we couldn't even give him away.

Wait for the delisting at the end of his contract.

Let's pat ourselves on the back Demonlanders. We and we alone, put a stop to whatever they had planned.

People power wins in the end!!!

By the way, what exactly did we put a stop to? :wub:

Serious question HH Have you played footy at the highest level? If not, what right have you to criticise those who have? Support your team mate! Get behind the players not bash them.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea
