The camp I'm now in is - "I cant believe how divided this football club is and how little trust we have in the people employed to run our club."  

Something I hope has been factored into the club's decision on Watts.

Beckham was recruited to Real Madrid to increase jumper sales. They're a much more elite club than any AFL club will ever be. It's a relevant consideration.

Motlop's off to Port. I expect their supporters are marching in excited unison right now.

 

Look at us. Just landed Lever, list full of talent, and a massive chunk of the supporter base is nervously awaiting the next announcement.

On any construction, how has this been well managed?

Gotta love Monty. 

A further minute has just passed.

Results of trade at a minute past.

still the minutes continue to pass.

I am seriously considering mowing the lawn and painting the house, just so that I can both watch the grass grow and the paint dry at the same time. If trade week was any slower, time would run backwards .... ?

Speak for yourself.

I'm stoked with where we are at and our prospects for 2018.  I can't wait to get it started.

In the words of John McEnroe,  "are you serious?"


Self evidently, I am speaking for myself.

But you are super naive if you don't think many of the players you're exciting about seeing next year in the red and the blue aren't currently texting each other in anger and frustration about the way in which Watts is being exited from the club.

Unnecessary brand damage IMO. This stuff impacts on the team settings that served Richmond so well this year, and the Bulldogs the year before.

As Ron Burgundy so infamously once said, 'agree to disagree'.

Sorry Redleg, it's actually 'you cannot be serious'.

Yep.

But I'm not the umpire/decision maker on this though. I'm just some dude in the crowd.

And you know this how...? 

See, this is the sort of 'opinion' that gets thrown around in this thread until people just believe it as true and they can't remember where it originated from.  No doubt I'll open this up in 5 pages time and other nuffies will be claiming they heard that players are texting each other about it and are ready to revolt.

You're better than the above, Ron, so don't stoop to a level that's beneath you.

Apologies and thanks. I stand corrected.

Ron didn't say he had evidence, he said "naive if you don't THINK".  He's just speculating as to what he thinks is very likely, not saying he heard it from a mate of a mate's mother-in-law. Not his fault if others misinterpret that and it then becomes accepted 'fact'.  There have been several examples of that on both sides of this debate.

This post is meaningless.  It doesn't dispute my point, nor does it add to it.

I know all of the above and said as much in my post, and I was making the point that it's posts like his that have been taken as fact 5 pages later.

This Watts debate is seriously a joke now.

With all due respect I hope the club never factors supporters opinions on who we trade in or out - those days are ironically long gone.

Supporters are just not generally professtional qualified to make FD decisions

I find it more like the "Argument" sketch from Monty Python's Flying Circus.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

    It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

    The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

    The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.
