    What is this, pre-season training for MFCSS?

    A bit of practice self-flagellation so you're primed and ready to go in round 1 if he kicks a bag?

    Great player? I must've missed his B&Fs, All Australian, Brownlow's. 

    In all seriousness I wish him well, he put up with a lot of scrutiny throughout his career at Melbourne but I can definitely see why he was traded. 

    Time to move on now.

    The boy is looking fit, it will come back to bite at some stage, never forget the night Farmer kicked a goal after the siren to beat us when he moved to Freo, heart breaking...

    Wouldn’t be the first player to have a renaissance at his second club, but I reckon we’re still better off overall.

    No it won't it what it WILL point out is in the player management stakes Roosy and Hinkley will be better player managers.

    I'm tipping some "Serious" Mental disintegration of Demonland people when he has a "Stellar" Season which I firmly believe he will have!

    Settle Picket. Breath in Breath out. 

    Repeat....

    Please.

    After all that's been written, give us a break.

    Its all been said, written about or thought about.

    We must have other things to discuss. 

    Please.

    I hope he does. Easily in our best 22, matchwinner on his day, (was) the best kick in our side. Deserves success after the [censored] he went through at our club.

    Watts will haunt us to our final day of judgement

    Jack, you can talk yourself up all you like, but the fact remains you just didnt care enough to get the best out of yourself while you played for MFC.

    That, and you were afraid of the contest.

    Dont think you will be greatly missed by anyone who values effort above being a nice bloke.

    • POSTGAME: Essendon

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

    • GAMEDAY: Essendon

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      As the focus of the AFL moves exclusively to South Australia for Gather Round, the question is raised as to what are we going to get from the  Melbourne Football Club this weekend? Will it be a repeat of the slop fest of the last three weeks that have seen the team score a measly 174 points and concede 310 or will a return to the City of Churches and the scene where they performed at their best in 2024 act as a wakeup call and bring them out of their early season reverie?  Or will the sleepy Dees treat their fans to a reenactment of their lazy effort from the first Gather Round of two years ago when they allowed the Bombers to trample all over them on a soggy and wet Adelaide Oval? The two examples from above tell us how fickle form can be in football. Last year, a committed group of players turned up in Adelaide with a businesslike mindset. They had a plan, went in confidently and hard for the football and kicked winning scores against both home teams in a difficult environment for visitors. And they repeated that sort of effort later in the season when they played Essendon at the MCG.
