ProDee, you use the club's b & f as the litmus test, then you use goals, then you compare Watts' output to Gunston's....

Make up your mind, lad.

Watts is having a fantastic year and he's been an integral part of the team's progress.

Time for a hug.

    That's just waffle from a well-known lightweight.  You haven't addressed one aspect of what you're disagreeing with.  As I said, you've been hogtied by your own incompetence.

    As I said preseason, goals per game was a worthwhile parameter for his new role.  Naturally you scoffed, because you lacked vision. He had to impact the scoreboard and he has.  You couldn't see it coming, which is why you call it a "stringy" objective.  That's how dopes defend their earlier lack of insight.

    And thanks, I'm going to have a wonderful day.

     

    Is there an echo in here?

    Aren't you busy replying to Nasher telling how mean he is ?

    Another non-thinker.

    Clearly a B&F result is a litmus test, as is goals kicked for a permanent forward (i.e. Watts role this year).  

    There's a reason Jeremy Howe is a failed forward and plays down back.  He doesn't impact the scoreboard.

    Some of you have been posting here for a decade, but haven't grown an inch in that time.

    Honestly ProDee, all internet wars aside, I think you need to accept that not everyone will see things the same as you. Doesn't make them a "dope" and doesn't mean they haven't "grown an inch", just means that they don't agree with you, no matter how many posts you use to insult or thrust your "logic" down their throat.

    Have a cuppa mate.

    Watts' role this year has not always been the permanent forward. So, wrong...

    Further, it still grates on you that you've made some outlandish commentary about this player's future and been found to be....wrong x2

    So, admit that you're wrong x3 and let the healing begin.

    If you didn't potshot from the sidelines with your gifs and inane comments you wouldn't know how to participate on the internet.

    It's little wonder your lightweight views get held to account.

    No, he is a permanent forward.  The fact that he drifts back at crucial stages or at the end of a quarter doesn't change this.  It's called modern footy.  Rest assured, he's a permanent forward in 2016.  Even more to the point, be thankful he's finally playing his best role.  Not only don't you seem to recognise this, you even want to deny it.

    And clearly enunciate to me where I've been wrong about this player.  Remember, put some effort into it or you'll come up short.

    Except when he is in the ruck or playing back or on the wing.

    I won't pander to your challenges, PD....I'm busy. You are wrong about 2016. 

    You scoffed at my observation that this player is finally exposed to a coaching regime that's got a clue....or, you'll refute that too?

    Suffice to say, he's playing fantastic footy.

    I'm going to sit back and enjoy the ride. I suggest you do, too.

    Other than evidence you mean? You clearly have your biases as we all do, I disagree with you. When everyone disagrees with you it is possible that they are right.

    Yeah mate, and Hogan isn't a permanent forward, because he goes back too.

    No more wasting time with you.

    Stuie he is an augmentative strop, a little like you, and me and many others here.

     

    Edit:- I meant argumentative strop but I like augmentative that could work.

    • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

      Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

    • PREGAME: St. Kilda

      With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

      Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.

      The Dees ran another clinic for the second week in a row as they easily accounted for the Tigers in the lightning interrupted shortened match at Mars Stadium in Ballarat.

    • GAMEDAY: Richmond

      It's Game Day and the 2026 AFL Premiership season is almost upon us as the Demons take to the field for their final practice match before the first ball is kicked in anger in 16 days time. What are you expecting to see from the Dees today as they take on the Tigers at Mars Stadium in Ballarat?
