Ahh yes. You see I preferred “Clockwork Orange” whilst you were watching “The Sound of Music”

 

No Sir, actually that year my favourite was Fiddler on the Roof, closely followed by Klute and the French Connection.

    All good films i must agree

    Klute with Donald Sutherland, must watch that again. 

    With “Kelly’s Heroes” as a double :)

    I don't care whether people think it's right, wrong, or are indifferent, but what I do know is that Watts is just another a-clown cruising through an AFL career.

    Goodwin has shipped off Hogan, Watts, and Bugg, for a reason.  He's a very smart man our Goody and his decisions remind me of the excellent image Gonzo shared a while back written by the great Ronald Dale Barassi.

    so culture is like a tap, huh?

    wonder why jack said he was embarrassed for his parents and sister if it was just a question of fun

    Jack's parents are humble, church-going folk. Wonder what they think of this and his well known like for hookers? 

    He's a grown adult stuck with the brain of a 14 year boy. Glad he's not on our list anymore.

    Organisational culture and setting standards starts from the top and goes all way down. Amazing that it took the Club 50 years to do it.

    No not amazing Ernie. 

    It was a bloody disgrace and the people who held influence should be utterly ashamed. 

    It is not hard to fix....

    Jack Watts seems to be showing   skill  more  style  and go than when he was playing  for  P A in 2018.

    Made the ch7 news tonight.

    Don't care except they introduced him as "Ex Melbourne Player jack Watt"  then briefly mention a statement by Port on the issue.  Its seems he has more profile as Ex-Melbourne than current Port!

     

     

     

     

    Port who?

    Of course the mighty MFC has more profile/relevance than that  backwater rabble.

    I’ve no doubt Jack was up to similar hi jinks when he was with us but it seems Port have something of a culture problem right now. You’ve the Jack Watts stories, Sam Powell-Peper and his two highly publicised incidents, and there are rumours on their board that Dixon came back out of shape and Rockliff is having attitude problems. Would not be one bit surprised to see them drop sharply down the ladder this season

    Rockliff could have attitude problems because of Port's culture? I wouldn't be so quick to judge him. When he was at Brisbane he was clearly frustrated, and the fact they got Fagan in to clean up their mess suggests there was a problem. I'd be willing to cut Rockliff some slack. He isn't he easiest bloke to like but maybe he expects more from others. That probably isn't a bad thing.

    At the time (like other contributors) I was disappointed they gave Jack away or rather got rid of him. 

    On reflection, I now see that Goodie and his crew recognised Jack's long term worth - party boy, uncommitted to doing the hard stuff, etc. Nice bloke but I'm really glad they pist him off/ie/sent him packing!

    And used the 2nd round pick to get the Fritter.

    Clearly, our club is in great management hands.

    I'm still trying to get over Hoges.

    Think Hoges has some issues in this area as well. Apparently made little effort to conceal them which didn't go down well with Goodwin.

    I wonder what the AFL has to say about this?

    It does have a Respect and Responsibility Policy in place and whilst the emphasis is on physical violence and mental abuse of women, it also sanctions activity that degrades women and this is a prime example of exactly that. Forget the woman in the video who willingly took part in Watts’ little escapade. Think of women in general; think of the image Watts is representing and think of the example this sets for young kids who look upon AFL players as heroes.

    As far as Port Adelaide is concerned, they are heading for a fall - neither they nor their player appear to be particularly remorseful. That’s a sure sign that there are cultural problems at that club.

    To his credit, Watts has now belatedly expressed remorse at taking part in the video.

    It’s a bad look even if there is nothing illegal about it. 

    The worst thing is how incredibly stupid Watts is letting someone film it (assumingly with his knowledge). 

    Bad PR and I’m sure Port are not thrilled.

    Not sure why people get so fired up about Watts. What you see is what you get. He is talented footballer and a party boy that commits about 70% to footy. 

    I don’t get Anyone being surprised by this

    Even Malcolm Blight is airing his thoughts on Watts' football career:

    “At 27, you’re supposed to get smarter and better. Of all the (draft pick) No. 1s, five years either side of him … from 2003 to 2007: Adam Cooney, Brownlow Medallist, Brett Deledio, best and fairest winner, Marc Murphy, best and fairest winner, Bryce Gibbs, best and fairest winner, Matthew Krezuer, great warhorse. They’re the five before him, head and shoulders above him. The five after: Tom Scully, works his butt off every game he plays, David Swallow, terrific player at the Suns, Jonathon Patton, when he plays — he’s had some injuries — but a beast, Lachie Whitfield, All-Australian, Tom Boyd, premiership player. That’s his peer group. You know where he sits? Screamingly last. He might be the worst No. 1 pick ever.”

    Wow blighty didn't hold back. But he does make a few good points when talking about players that have gone 31 before him or after him. 

    What confuses me about this though before he snorts the stuff he appears to be looking at the camera and says are you ready. Or is he just saying it to those around him. Surely he could notice someone has there phone recording it. Then today he says he didn't know he was being filmed.

    Leave Jack alone! Australia has bigger problems!

    i would rather blame everything bad on the greedy banks, corrupt politicians and crooked property developers and corrupt unions.

    i think the fun police should let Jack Watts and others have their chance to blow off steam like the rest of us. He even committed the act in a foreign country so a simple apology to satisfy the bleeding heart liberals should suffice.

    • PREVIEW: Fremantle

      A month is a long time in AFL football. The proof of this is in the current state of the two teams contesting against each other early this Saturday afternoon at the MCG. It’s hard to fathom that when Melbourne and Fremantle kicked off the 2025 season, the former looked like being a major player in this year’s competition after it came close to beating one of the favourites in the GWS Giants while the latter was smashed by Geelong to the tune of 78 points and looked like rubbish. Fast forward to today and the Demons are low on confidence and appear panic stricken as their winless streak heads towards an even half dozen and pressure mounts on the coach and team leadership.  Meanwhile, the Dockers have recovered their composure and now sit in the top eight. They are definitely on the up and up and look most likely winners this weekend against a team which they have recently dominated and which struggles to find enough passages to the goals to trouble the scorers. And with that, Fremantle will head to the MCG, feeling very good about itself after demolishing Richmond in the Barossa Valley with Josh Treacy coming off a six goal haul and facing up to a Melbourne defence already without Jake Lever and a shaky Steven May needing to pass a fitness test just to make it onto the field of play.

    • 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.
