Roosy was banging on about him as our Jarrad McVeigh On The Couch toward the end of the season, mentioned it more than once. Highlighted a few of the bits of play you would've been referring to in your earlier post as evidence of slowing the game down and choosing the right option to open up the game.

Jack Watts. Love a good spooner one!

Not actually my surname!! (maternal side) Could tell you a few more stories about his career... and his bone dry sense of humour (the story above is a good one... he was a ruck, so Barassi didn't pinch his spot!!)
Risking outing myself here but Alan Krause is my grandad. Bloody small world!
The Hogan trade values him at pick 2. The Beams Trade values him at pick 9 (assuming Pies top 4 next year) with the late pick swaps. Assuming GWS and Bombers both 5-8, Shiel valued at pick 5. We did better than the Bombers, that's for sure.
Menagola wasn't on anyone's radar kicking dew around the WAFL. Geelong scouted him and got him. Well done. But in reality we got Fritsch in similar circumstances. Ben Brown had an unspectacular junior career and North took a chance on him as a 21 year old. He'd been playing more as a ruck and was only the season before he was drafted that he switched to a key forward. Again, see Fritsch. Hulett didn't make, but he was a fourth round pick based on needs moreso than best available. Similarly, it's a bit of a stretch to call a bloke who's played 30 games across 4 seasons taken a pick 40 a bust. There's plenty taken in the third round that play precisely 0 AFL games.
