Jack Watts in 2016?

Featured Replies

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.

Nah mate.  You have to do better than that.

Does anyone understand footy in here ?

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.

As I thought.

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

No more wasting time with you.

Not quite sure you understand the definition of the word "permanent"....

 

Nothing like a JW thread to bring people together .

 


I pronounce  T.O.D @  10.34

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.

Not yet, no mention of Nazi Germany or Hitler, give it time.

 

 

Edit:- Whoops,  I may have mentioned the war, but I think I got away with it.

 

Religion , politics and Jack Watts.

  • PREVIEW: West Coast

    Saturday’s election night game in Perth between the West Coast Eagles and Melbourne represents 18th vs 15th which makes it a tough decision as to which party to favour. The Eagles have yet to break the ice under their new coach in Andrew McQualter who is the second understudy in a row to confront Demon Coach Simon Goodwin who was also winless until a fortnight ago. On that basis, many punters might be considering to go with the donkey vote but I’ve been assigned with the task of helping readers to come to a considered opinion on this matter of vital importance across the nation. It was almost a year ago that I wrote a preview here of the Demons’ away game against the Eagles (under the name William from Waalitj because it was Indigenous Round).  I issued a warning that it was a danger game, based on my local knowledge that the home team were no longer easybeats and that they possessed a wunderkind generational player in Harley Reid who was capable of producing stellar performances playing among men a decade and more older than he.  At the time, the Eagles already had two wins off the back of a couple of the young man’s masterclasses and they had recently given the Bombers a scare straight after their Anzac Day blockbuster draw against the then reigning premiers.

Friday sees the Saints desperate for a win as well if they are to stay in finals contention and their opponents the Dockers will be eager to crack in to the Top 8 with a win on the road. Saturday kicks off with a pivotal clash for both sides asthe Bulldogs look to solidify their top-eight spot, while Port seeks to shake their pretender tag. Then the Crows will be looking to steady their topsy turvy season against a resurgent Blues looking to make it 4 wins on the trot. On Election Night a Blockbuster will see the ladder-leading Pies take on the Cats, who are keen to bounce back after a narrow loss. On Sunday the Sydney Derby promises fireworks as the Giants aim to cement their top-eight status, while the Swans fight to keep their season alive. The Hawks, celebrating their centenary, will be looking to easily account for the Tigers who are desperate to halt their slide. The Round concludes on Sunday Night with a top end of the table QClash with significant ladder implications; both Queensland teams are in scintillating form. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

  • REPORT: Richmond

    The fans who turned up to the MCG for Melbourne’s Anzac Day Eve clash against Richmond would have been disappointed if they turned up to see a great spectacle. As much as this was a night for the 71,635 in attendance to commemorate heroes of the nation’s past wars, it was also a time for the Melbourne Football Club to consolidate upon its first win after a horrific start to the 2025 season. On this basis, despite the fact that it was an uninspiring and dour struggle for most of its 100 minutes, the night will be one for the fans to remember. They certainly got value out of the pre match activity honouring those who fought for their country. The MCG and the lights of the city as backdrop was made for nights such as these and, in my view, we received a more inspirational ceremony of Anzac culture than others both here and elsewhere around the country.

  • CASEY: Richmond

    The match up of teams competing in our great Aussie game at its second highest level is a rarity for a work day Thursday morning but the blustery conditions that met the players at a windswept Casey Fields was something far more commonplace.They turned the opening stanza between the Casey Demons and a somewhat depleted Richmond VFL into a mess of fumbling unforced errors, spilt marks and wasted opportunities for both sides but they did set up a significant win for the home team which is exactly what transpired on this Anzac Day round opener. Casey opened up strong against the breeze with the first goal to Aidan Johnson, the Tigers quickly responded and the game degenerated into a defensive slog and the teams were level when the first siren sounded.
