Ahhh, I only got to watch it from about 20 seconds before wagers tackle... if you've got a link -- id love it.

1. Wagners tackle on Selwood 2. Wagners tackle on Selwood 3. Wagners tackle on Selwood

The opposite of love isn't hate - its apathy - and I can see there is still so so soooo much love for Jack on this forum... keep kicking goals Jack, for you are the gift that keeps on giving! And my own personal view is - 10 years into his career - Jack needed a change of team (environment, culture, coach, teammates) for him to give himself the opportunity to be more consistent. It was never to happen within the team of Melbourne - the factors that drive the inconsistent behaviours are well spoken about, from development and support, but its not MELBOURNE as an entity that did this, its a range of individuals over a decade, including Jack himself .

Can this thread (and thread title) be used for all Jack Watts related correspondence for the rest of his career? Just your one stop shop for all Jack Watts.

The interesting part for me was Jackson's comment that, "only one real offer was made, and that in itself says something."

correct weight sir.

@stevethemanjordan - Agreed with all of this, and enjoy most of your posts...

It may have been mentioned before on the thread (and certainly I am repeating myself to myself) - I genuinely think he is as talented and will be as durable as Shaun Burgoyne.

Bloody hell mate... Harsh as - thyroid issues has had a significant influence on his trajectory.

please elaborate...

what's d schwarz up to now? got a new gig eh?

Erm, looks like the guy on the left with modified hair...

are you part of the football department, support or ancillary staff?

I also knew a player when I saw one- J Gysbersts vs the cats - what a gun... alas, I was wrong...

I hope the commentators are right with their allusions to 'think Boomer Harvey' due to his stature... I can also think of Ben Ken, David Bain, Robin Nahas and maybe Ricky Jackson Welcome kid.

I'd concur, he came good at Carlton - I'd love Stinga, and he got too injured too frequently to really be consistent unfortunately, (does anyone else remember the time in WA where he side stepped to eagles players (one ready to shirt front) and they collected one another...could have been the same game as a chris lewis bite...but hey I'm sure its not and I'm throwing all my WA memories into one basket...

That's much like me - I hear from some sources Im a bit of a [censored].. but others think Im ok... and yet the FD decided to go for him with all their resources and business acumen... wowsers F.L.O.G was censored... amusing stuff indeed

ahhh me neither...

can you tweet @texwalker13 please

I disagree with this notion, correlation doesn't equal causation - I think they're mutually exclusive events... For all the players that have left Adelaide - there are plenty that stay even when they're not in their state of origin. I would love the stats over the last 7 years (Gen Z's and Millenials) of how many who are not playing in their home state, have requested trades back home, vs those that haven't. Further, (and this is one of my biggest gripes) - for those who post on here that players who want to go home are 'soft' etc etc - family, friends, lifestyle just about always trumps working for an organisation when its based interstate - be it football or otherwise.

Please explain...

And Deano was just delisted

Beyond Jakes role, is another train of thought that he frees up Hunt to ‘break lines’ and hit targets further up the ground on a wing? Is that too simplistic?

Evidence please?

My exact thoughts at the time...
