Footy Show Bags Jack Watts


Recommended Posts

Posted

The footy classified show tonight with Mathew Loyd bagged Jack Watts saying he has been " gifted 100 games of AFL Football " No work effort not hard and desperate . Garry Lyon says he has no excuses anymore .

Anyone want to comment on their comments ??

Posted

I agree. He should be at his peak now but he still looks to be developing....how many of his 200 game career will he spend developing.

Hopefully not as many as Sylvia

Posted

Time is running out for him I feel. Even his most staunch supporters, such as myself, grow weary of his lack of development or inspiring performances every 6-10 games which invoke feelings of hope that he may just turn into some sort of good player.

Sadly the clock now ticks for Jack.

Another Jack Watts thread. Oh dear...

Actually I'm not interested so much about Jack Watts but more about what these two said , we are all aware by now where Jack Watts is at if not then we have Rocks in our heads.

My questions is are they right to say what they said or aren't they? Gifted 100 Games ???? No excuses now ??? The thread is about these two more then Jack and there ability to shoot from the sideline . And are their comments more damaging to Watts improvement, or are they more damaging to Watts bringing him down

I didn't want to turn it into a Jack Watts Thread per say so I apologize if it turns out this way :(

Lloydy finished by saying he's stayed in the team while having bad form due to a lack of depth.

He also acknowledge new players like Brayshaw and Vandenberg who are earning there spots.

I Agree with what he was saying tonight but it's nothing we don't already know

100 games in, and while he has a position on the team, he still doesn't have a position on the field. He's had very limited success as a defender/onballer/utility. Wish he'd just be given the keys as a lead up forward.

Is it too soon to invoke Godwin's Law?

Spot on, kid has talent, but he just isn't hungry,

Big difference between wanting to succeed and refusing to fail.

Indeed no, t_u, but seeing as it's happened...

"Gifted 100 games of AFL football": Is there anyone on here who could compile a list of all the current players in the AFL with 100-ish games, so we can make our own assessments where JW might be in the present-receiving queue?

Sam Jacobs

Taylor walker

Pearce Hanley

Matthew Leunberger

Jack Watts

Andrejs Everitt

Nathan Brown

Ben Reid

Dyson Heppell

Jake Melksham

Trent Mckenzie

Dylan Addison

Rhys Palmer

He's certainly not in the top half of that list. I think looking at that he should be ashamed of himself.

When I saw the thread title, I thought it was about show bags based on a Jack Watts theme ... :blink:

Andrejs Everitt is a pretty good comparison, he's flirted with good form but remained an all-round average footballer. Only he's already gone through the Dogs and the Swans.

Leuenberger and Palmer have been highly touted but failed to deliver for years. Mckenzie hasn't really developed like the rest. M.Brown and Addison haven't reached any heights. The rest on the list are a decent bunch of players.

Thanks for reminding me that channel 9 have two horrendous footy programs.

I bag Watts alot.

But this is a very stupid thread. We all know the truth. No need to start a new thread but..

I suggested trading Watts years ago n got shut down for it. If we had it could've been a master stroke.

That said we MUST trade him this year as its his 7th year and will be our last chance to trade him out before he becomes a free agent.

Not sure if serious or keyboard warrior...

Anyway, all these threads aimed at JW are simply becoming pathetic.

Too many posters with sad, lonely little lives who get a kick out of constantly berating a player. Clap clap.

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the
