I thought we were after Balic, not Impey. The former likes contested footy (apparently), the latter us a bit of a flake. We don't need flakes.

    Deep down I always compared watts to goodes

    As much as I love Watts' strengths, this is just nowhere near reality. Goodes did some annoying things, but was a match-winning superstar with few flaws in his game. He could play forward, back, ruck, midfield and possibly his most important trait; he was a finisher, a goal kicker.

    Watts COULD be this, but his lacks something (I don't know what) that holds him back from his full potential.

    I thought our QB game was our grand final.  He stood up there rather well.

    Ya as others have noted, it might be a big game for us it isn't a final and certainly isn't a granny. Look I'd love to see how Watts, all our players handle finals let alone be in a granny but it doesn't look like that will happen (for Watts) with the Dees.

    Mates into me last night about Wattsy trade. 

    Hawks and Pies supporters happy to take him for 2nd rounder 23 / 24 pick. 

    Bombers supporter said a definite yes to pick 28. 

    Seems many others happy to take a 150 game, 27yo agile 6’4 forward, skilled with excellent goal kicking.  Can play spare back or ruck roles. 

    Fair few of my mates who support other clubs seem to think that he will do better anywhere else than Melbourne.

    Why do you think that would be?? What am I missing? Surely its up to Jack how hard he trains ,how much he cares ,how committed he is.

    What's some other club going to give him that Mfc hasnt. He has been looked after with kid gloves here.

    Been a while since I've been on so I haven't been able to comment on the Watts situation, but, after seeing his interview at Adelaide airport on Channel 7, I can say that I am 99% sure he won't be playing at thr dees next season, kept saying that we are a great club that is heading in the right direction with a lot of young talent, which to me seemed like he was referring to the point that the club will be fine without him

    Goodes was a powerful runner who just kept moving to give options. Watts doesn't seem to know how to continually present, especially when the Dees lack cohesion, and demand the ball.

    Id have thought it not so much he wasnt where he might need to be ( as it seemed to me he was one of the very few among our lot that actually knew where to be )   It was that he was often not honoured..and i mean OFTEN.

    Mentioning Watts in the same breath as Goodes is ludicrous, but I do agree with this observation.

    Rumour I heard yesterday from a guy who has a good track record is that we have asked the question on kade Kolodjashnij as an outside midfielder. 

    I really rate him as a player and very much hope he’s on the money here. 

    I hope this true. As an outside mid would be fantastic who can also play back. Best rumour posted yet!

    I would prefer Kade over Gaff. Alot more upside and versatile. 

    His brother would be a great get aswell.

    What would a trade look like to get Kade to the Dees?

    • AFLW REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Well, that was a shock. The Demons 4-game unbeaten run came to a grinding halt in a tense, scrappy affair at the sunny, windy Alberton Oval, with the Power holding on for a 2-point win. The Dees had their chances—plenty of them—but couldn't convert when it mattered most. Port’s tackling pressure rattled the Dees, triggering a fumble frenzy and surprising lack of composure from seasoned players.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

    • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

      A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

    • CASEY: Frankston

      The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

      Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.
