People on here still seem to think he is a top bloke

Given it was 2pm on a Sunday afternoon I'd doubt it'd be alcohol or drug related though.

    Yeah, cause no one drinks or does drugs on a Sunday afternoon. Especially AFL footballers.

    A comparison between Jack and Travis would make for a depressing thread.

    But there was real talent in them two blokes.

    Looking forward to seeing them both in the stands as Yze coaches an MFC premiership in 2022

    perhaps throw in Colin Sylvia

    Once your in the limelight you cannot afford to get into any trouble or you end in the public eye and you cannot hide.

    YOU WILL BE CAUGHT!.   It is like Hollywood.   Poor Jack I feel for him.

    He is a football player so who knows.

    To do a runner there is clearly something behind the scenes that would be alcohol or drug related. Why else would one do it?

    Oh Jack. I don’t think there has ever been a MFC player that I wanted to really achieve higher standards more than Jack.

    I’ve always stuck up for him but he really does continue to crap the bed and tarnish his “good lad” reputation.

    I thought he always tried to avoid contact?

    Jack  Watts would be the ideal person to help with the all round kicking skills especially  goal kicking . I wonder if he would be interested.  Would have a lot to offer., after all he is a true Melbourne boy. 

    Much loved by many at the Dees.

    Yeah, he was probably just snorting more of that Wiesn Koks

    I wouldn’t be against it (I think I may have suggested it earlier!) but hearing about him being involved in that car accident, sounds like he still has some growing up to do. 

    I hope the club reaches out to him though.

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      Melbourne and Hawthorn who face off against each other this week have more in common than having once almost merged and about to wear a blue jumper with a red v triangle and an embroidered picture of a bird on the front.  They also share the MCG as their main home ground, their supporters are associated with the leafy suburbs of Melbourne and in recent times, James Frawley graced the colours of both teams. Even more recently, both have bounced back from disastrous five game losing streaks to start off a season. Of course, the Hawks turned their bounce into a successful leap from the bottom of the ladder into a finals appearance, making it to the semifinals in 2024 and this year, they’re riding high in third place on the AFL table. The Demons are just three games into their 2025 bounce back, and are yet to climb their way out of the bottom four although they are sitting a game and percentage out of the top eight. However, with the current sportsbet odds of $3.90 to win this week’s encounter, it seems a forlorn hope that their upward progression will continue much longer.

    • REPORT: West Coast

      On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

      The Demons return to the MCG to take on the High Flying Hawks on Saturday Afternoon. Hawthorn will be aiming to consolidate a position in the Top 4 whilst the Dees will be looking to take a scalp and make it four wins in a row. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.
