I think we have a very valuable player on our hands, who might (now) be worthy of pick one in that draft.

How valuable is up to Jack.

He potentially has 7-9 years left, so he has plenty of time to stake his claim as worthy of a top 3 draft pick, or even numero uno.

If I could give Jack Watts one gift what do you think it would be ?  

A pen and a blank piece of paper.

The note would say, "How do you want history to remember you by the end of your career, Jack ?"

How I'd like him to respond ?

"I know how history will remember me,  because I'm going to write it."

Agree on all three points. The second game against Gold Coast is a great example of what he can bring to the table. We were woeful that day and he was the only one who really performed. Apart from the fact he kicked the winning goal (a difficult kick, particularly given his record from that spot was poor - 1 goal 6 - according to the fox stats), he kicked 3 in a low total and gut ran throughout the last quarter. His match winning goal came soon after terrific contest with 2nd and 3rd efforts on the wing (at the two minute mark of the video below) and he was knackered, sucking in the big ones just before he marked it.

As is is often the case (because he makes good decisions and doesn't turn the ball over) he was put back late in the quarter and made a match saving mark in the GC goal square.

This video gives a great example of what he gives us. He stood up when it counted, willing us to win that game and it is worth remembering our late season charge at the finals would have not got off the ground if we had lost the GC game.

Wow, you should coach the Oz cricket team.

Mark Waugh would have loved you.

But Mitch Johnson and Shane Watson would have gotten into trouble for not doing their homework.

No.  My disappointment is based on output.

One good year in 8.

A horrible disappointment.

Goodwin is going to cop it big time from us and the media if the following events happen:

• We lose to St Kilda
• Our forward line is dysfunctional
• Watts is running around in some meaningless minor league scratch match
• Weideman gets 3 possessions and 0 marks
• Vandenberg has a disposal efficiency that matches his jumper number 

I fear the last 2 may occur if things go south and Watts misses the match.

I fear the last 2 might happen regardless BBP
