Out of contract... I rate this fella very highly. Can play multiple positions.

I prefer to chase Sicily rather than pay overs for Lever. 

2nd round Pick (26-30) & Watts for Sicily?

Or

1st round Pick (9-12) for Sicily and Howe (rate this guy too)? 

I can see Howe playing his career as a big bodied mid.

Thoughts?

Hawks would want more than Watts and that pick. Why would they trade a marking forward who can play back, for a confidence player and a pick? Granted they probably want to stock up but Watts is barely a depth player, he's either top 22 or a deck chair being shuffled in and out. Hawks will be looking to add useful depth to replace injuries.

I can't believe this has even been raised.  Sicily is the number one [censored] in the game, I couldn't stomach him in a Demon guernsey!

You're right. We have all round good blokes like Bugg.

one of the hawks favourites, no way they'd let him go.

Totally agree. Being out of contract he has to be gettable though. His choice...

Not a very good player and a fake tough guy.  

Seriously! He would walk into any side... I dont know who you are watching. Lol

Reminds me of his twin Clayton Oliver. Looks like him and is a competitve beast.

I believe it! He is a gun... ?

Sicily maybe more affordable than Lever.

Lever has consistent soft-tissue injuries.

Sicily has proven he can play multiple postions very well. He thrives on playing on the edge.

Not a crazy idea. Would be nice to have a marking option and he hasn't been bad out of the backline this year. The Hawkers would be pretty keen to lock him in though

Hawks will want to keep him, thus wanting a bit more than he is worth.

But surely they will be keen to get back into the early part of the draft in some way.

Problem is I don't think he is worth your 1st round pick whatever that turns out to be, but he is worth more than your 2nd round pick.

We gave 2nd round for Melksham and then Hibberd, and now we're giving it AND Watts for Sicily? Watts is not steak knives because of a few bad games and an untimely omission, a club would take him on the proviso that they could get the best out of him, and his best is elite.

Sicily is not elite, this is what we'd offer for someone who is a gamechanger and addresses a serious need. Like Isaac Smith for instance. The Hawks need defenders and would probably want Frost. Sicily for Frost, straight swap as Sicily will assumedly have nominated us. (If Lever fell through)



Watts will be selected against Brisbane and Collingwood and will get another opportunity to redeemon himself if we beat the Saints.

Genuinely shocked to hear him being rated on this site!  He is a very, very average footballer in the mold of Brad Miller.  That's no slight on Miller, he had a good career for a player of his ability - but I'd say Sicily's just about peaked; what you now see is what you get.

Average key forward, average tall defender.

(plays for free kicks way too often too)

He's a very good player. He's not that tall for an AFL player (1.89m).

2nd rd pick and Watts or a 1st rd pick. 

You must be talking about a different Sicily to the one I know.

    There were a number of Demonland Trackwatchers at Gosch's Paddock this morning to bring you their observations from Preseason Training. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS They were going hard at each other. The sims were in two 15 minute blocks. The second block finished a few minutes early, they gathered and had another 7 minutes at it. I think they were asked to compete, as they would play against an opposition. There was plenty of niggle, between some of them. At the end o

    Better late than never … and quite frankly, there’s very little to report other than that training took place at Casey Fields this morning, that Tracc was there nursing his rib injury and that some photographs are on the club’s social media including this one of Clarrie in Raging Bull stance that gives rise for confidence. The other news is that the club has a new train on player in 185cm Dandenong Stingrays midfielder Noah Hibbins-Hargreaves (love the hyphenated name which is just so fitti

    Welcome back to Demonland for those like me who have been on vacation. I’m posting this with some trepidation because of a certain amount of uncertainty surrounding the return of preseason training in 2025 after a flurry of weddings including those of our coach, one of our superstar players and a former premiership champion player and bloke, not to mention the recent mysterious incident that occurred on the Mornington Peninsula.  I believe that the team reassembles this morning at Casey Fie

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session. BLWNBA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I arrived at around 1015 and the squad was already out on the track. The rehab group consisted of XL, McAdam, Melksham, Spargo and Sestan. Lever was also on restricted duties and appeared to be in runners.  The main group was doing end-to-end transition work in a simulated match situation. Ball mov
