Paul Connors was positioning his client the best way he could after MFC publicly trashed Watt’s reputation during trade period. 

While I think the club should have gritted their teeth and let Jack's 'publicity tour' lose oxygen, don't think for a moment Jack didn't play the game during that period.

The mysterious 'appearance' at the airport (don't tell me that his management wasn't on the phone to journos), the press conference at the races (because the club wasn't going to give him a platform to air his grievances), his whinge on Instagram about the club 'not wanting good kicks' and his Dad coming out in the Age to complain about Jack being 'publicly stoned' (Jack and his manager would have been sure to have green lighted that) shows he and his management were launching a PR campaign to keep him at the club.

The club went overboard in its response to him and used nukes when a few precise missile strikes could have sufficed. But Jack was no innocent in that situation.

    2008 was a pretty ordinary draft. I wish we decided to pass that year. 

    Not all from 2008 but I still laugh (well maybe laugh isn't the right word) that Port have our 1, 2 and 4 pick....

    Are you kidding me? There's going to be a "The Jack Watts in 2018 Thread" at the top of the forum all year? How about deleting this thread Mods and telling everyone who wants to have an ongoing week to week commentary to go over to wattsland.com/forums?

    What a lot of whinging about nothing.  If it's in one thread it's simple - just don't read it.

    The thread was just about dead, no posts since Sunday. Good bump.

    • NON-MFC: Round 06

      The Easter Round kicks off in style with a Thursday night showdown between Brisbane and Collingwood, as both sides look to solidify their spots inside the Top 4 early in the season. Good Friday brings a double-header, with Carlton out to claim consecutive wins when they face the struggling Kangaroos, while later that night the Eagles host the Bombers in Perth, still chasing their first victory of the year. Saturday features another marquee clash as the resurgent Crows look to rebound from back-to-back losses against a formidable GWS outfit. That evening, all eyes will be on Marvel Stadium where Damien Hardwick returns to face his old side—the Tigers—coaching the Suns at a ground he's never hidden his disdain for. Sunday offers two crucial contests where the prize is keeping touch with the Top 8. First, Sydney and Port Adelaide go head-to-head, followed by a fierce battle between the Bulldogs and the Saints. Then, Easter Monday delivers the traditional clash between two bitter rivals, both desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top end of the ladder. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Essendon

      What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

    • 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.
