Apparently Jake was seen taking a dump on the side of the road just before crossing the SA/VIC border. can't relieve my sources on this one, sorry

this is hilarious! Adelaide behaving like children. I really am still in shock that we are a destination club. the fact that he hasnt considered Hawks/cats/pies etc... Go Dees! bring on the game against the crows next year!

I agree with some of your post. In reality only Goody knows the reasons. But as he has been put up for trade you would have to imagine he has burnt the trust of the coaching staff one too many times

Fascinating that so many of us can see this so differently. Goody wants to lift the standard at the MFC. I'll be sad to see Watts go but he is not committed to our mission enough. Look at the crows, no superstars just 100% committed players

How good is it that we are attracting the best young talent around! would have been Geelong/Hawks maybe Pies a few years ago as for crows wanting more that they got for Danger? HAHA!

SOURCE???!???!

I'm glad he wants to stay and his manager has said MFC have handled this well so far. the fact that he is surprised by this after being dropped twice this year - almost missing round 1 and the last couple of rounds says a lot. you dont know what you have until its gone - or almost gone. My heart wants him to stay and do well but my head says he will continue to be inconsistent. my liver wants me to stop drinking but my spleen is up for up... confusing times indeed!

anyone hoping Watts will stay is dreamin he has been told to leave. there is interest. if need be, Dees will take what they have to take for him

Depends on how many schoolgirls are in attendance

my comment was around Tippett being shyte I know Watts is going, I'm supportive and I think a 2nd rounder is fair. This club no longer wants to carry players who are not driven to succeed, despite their obvious talent

run for cover dude

Mate, I told you to not call me Shirley! and I'm being Frank

I'm more worried for us supporters who are we going to blame for being rubbish if he leaves? it can't be all Dom Tyson's fault!! Simple for me - if he doesn't put in as much as is required and commit to the team rules he is out. Goody will not bend and I like it

To every Tigers supporter that ticked GF guarentee last year, - respect

Wow if we are relying on Watts to be our back up Ruck we are seriously struggling. T Mac / Pedo can do the role if Max goes down. Hogan/frost is desperate we fwd/ruck should be high on the recruiting list. maybe Trengove will come in as cover?

no top 10 draft picks in the Crows line up. Goody and crew are concentrating on culture and attitude and it's the right way to go Chin up Ox

Anyone actually watched Hartlett the last couple of seasons? average.

Watts is currently worth about a 2nd pick. Hard to negotiate when you drop him twice and bag his attitude id prefer Watts to a second round pick. He will never be perfect or tough. But he is very talented player dont blame him for wanting out of Melb though

yeah...that, or there have been 3 KPF that have won either CA or MVP in the same time when zero won a brownlow you know, just using information to back up my argument

you neglected to give some examples of hard players No-one more well liked than Viney and no-one harder in the league

haha the Dees under salary cap pressure? due to all of our stars we have in their prime? we've only ever had pressure to reach 92%. 4-5 years time will be different but there is no way we need to off load anyone to pay Lever's wages

how would dropping Jones from the captaincy improve our leadership? after everything he has and continues to give to MFC, we need to handle him Extremely carefully. he stuck with us when not many would have. He leads well onfield and sets the example off-field with training standards etc. Obviously Viney is a born leader - I think the two complement each other.

don't agree. The coaches more a lot more than the umps 2 key forwards won the coaches award - Barry Hall and Treadrea Reiwoldt won an MVP defenders seemingly get screwed by everyone!

I remember Scarlett getting 3-4 votes when he won the BnF for Geelong (pretty sure this is right) The Brownlow is a joke. Umpires clearly don't understand the game. Buddy/Carey can't win one but Priddis/Woewodin do?

details!!? what's the young man's name??
