Jack Watts wouldn't get a game at Hawthorn claims Dwayne

Typical Dwayne Russell comment on 3AW just now.  Thankfully Richo and Gerard put him in his place.  I agreed entirely with Richo that JW in a better team would be even better, but I'm just glad we are starting to find form and he is reaping the benefit of time in a particular role.  

He has always had the ability, and as we get better his impact will be even greater.

 

That's hilarious,if Frawley can get a game with Hawthorn,and guys like Shoenmakers and young Sicily,then Watts would be a shoe in.

With Sam Mitchell and Burgoyne feeding him he would probably kick six every week.

The only way Duh-Wayne would be put in his place is with a dirty big punch in the mouth.

PS - Mods, I am not condoning violence, but rather, trying to be pragmatic.

Just another footy media weirdo who hates the MFC for no apparent reason


Dwayne is a bully. He punches down and sucks up. Shocking piece of work.

Dwayne wouldn't get a game at Hawthorn! Even in his heyday (did he have one?) It becomes obvious in his calls that he gets by on a bloated, hot-air approach to life. Unfortunately, Footyinfotainment now supports this lifestyle. Jack Watts is so much more gifted as a player and as a person that it's probably silly of me to even point these things out in my post! I take it for granted that my long standing site moniker is universally recognized as a parody of Dwayne!

Seriously who thinks dwaynes opinions are even relevant. He's an awful commentator and $hit kicker at best.


why do we always waste time discussing duhwayne's look at moi dribblings? who really gives a fig?

Thanks for bringing that to our attention  Itsabouttohappen. I appreciate knowing what certain commentators are saying even though I don't give a damn for

Dwayne's opinions. Twice in four weeks in the team of the round Jack Watts, well done and Dwayne doesn't think he would get a game at Hawthorn?>  Who is Dwayne trying to suck up to now? I know he says he sees it how he sees it yet compared to any other commentator he is the one that I always feel he is talking to someone else, that he has other agenda going on that has nothing to do with what is in front of the rest of our eyes.  An Awful Commentator. His own personal projections always shake you out of the match that you are watching and make you wonder "Where the Hell did that come from ?" As you can imagine the Mute gets used often here. (Footy infotainment supports this life style as WayneRussell says.) And if it wasn't for the real fact that   -  It's about to Happen I think I was about to give up on all this footyinfotainment - and approaching 70 yrs that would have been easy to do. I saw a quarter of the Casey game on Sunday and with 3 or 4 of my favourite players out of the main game on Sunday I am looking forward to a few yeas of good footy viewing

 

Dwayne Russell - 50 games - 51 goals

Jack Watts - 119 games - 92 goals (Projection for whole career - 227 games - 332 goals - 1 B&F, 3 AA's - 1 Top 3 Brownlow)


Watts needs to be consistent and if he was at Hawthorn he would spend a lot of time in the two's.He may end up being a success.

When I saw the heading I thought ,"Oh No! Not someone starting a JW negative thread". So glad it was not that as Jack has done everything right this season. He is showing his true ability now.

Edit :  I now notice the heading has been changed which is more accurate in its meaning.

They all do- and the umpires follow suit.

Dwayne Russell played 5 seasons at the elite level. He averaged 10 games a season, 14 disposals a game, less than 1 tackle a game and gave away twice as many free kicks as he got... hardly a reason to puff his chest out about!


Anyone who thinks Jack Watts would struggle at a top four team just isn't a credible analyst. Everything I have ever written about Jack is now evident to everyone but the those who are more interested in their profile than the evidence.

Yeah Clarko has never really been a fan of players who can kick the ball really well and are quick. 

The million dollar question is who to blame for Watts' slow development, him or us, but his talent has been on show for a long time now. All about making sure it he keeps playing well.

FFS Kyle CHeney got a game. Even Jack Fitzpatrick has gotten a game. DerWayne is the biggest k-nob in media.

Half the Hawthrn coaching staff are from Melbourne. We do alright....

And they would jump at someone with Jack's skills.

 

Reckon watts is benefitting from quicker ball movement. Would rather us move it down the ground and have him one out rather than chipping is down slowly and watts having to take a pack mark

Jack won't have to worry about making the Hawthorn team this year... they will drop out of the top four to be followed by a drop out of the top eight two years down the track!

  • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

    The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

  • CASEY: Brisbane

    The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

    The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: Western Bulldogs

    The Demons lacked some polish but showed a lot of heart and took it right up to the Bulldogs in an attempt to spoil their finals hopes ultimately going down by a goal at the MCG.
