Jack Watts
Green was not a naturally hard player...head over the ball player. But he was crazy brave at times.

Jimmy Toumpas
Probably not. Wines is turning out a lot better than most thought imo. Deja vu Rich? But Toumpas very good yesterday. Won't turn into a Franklin/Tambling disaster.

Jack Watts
Watts was an absolute bottom age draft. He should have waited a year, but would have certainly gone to GCS. Thus he went into the 2008 draft. Didn't want to go to GC. A wandering talent since.

Mark Neeld's Spray on Morton.
The AFL web site highlights a video of the Morton turnover and subsequent "interaction" with Neeld on the boundary. The video is called "Coach killer". Says it all. Ed: reckon its a real turning point; the footage - game and with Neeld - will be replayed for eternity (like the footage of Morton and Lade from 5 years ago).

Mark Neeld's Spray on Morton.
Hahahahaha.....good one....a joke surely? FFS He's had more than enough. Hahahahaha..even a bigger joke I would not ignore him...that's for sure. FWIW, I don't think Neeld gave him a spray in the sense he was yelling abuse at him....looked more to me like he was making a comment about using his preferred foot (guessing at lip reading). G Lyon absolutely bagged Morton on the radio; intensity, double and tripple fumbles etc. Wrote him of really. Morton only has running ability as a plus. 5 years now (and no Bailey plugging for him). Done and dusted; doubt he is of much trade value either (especially give the Morton family history).

Neeld pours heat on Demons
Watts for one was getting game time because "the young players needed to get games into them". I was never convinced, BUT who else do you play? There is/was not a lot of players knocking on the door. "Getting a game because you deserve it" is a cliche dependent on there being (suitable/adequate) players available. Seems Neeld has a "crash through or crash" view on things. Interesting times ahead. Ed.: spelling

Neeld pours heat on Demons
Music to my ears (re Davey): "He's got to get himself fit enough, make sure he's taking in all the education about those roles, and we're going to give him the chance to put his best foot forward. "If he does, no problems, he plays, plays really well and the supporters will love him. If he's unable to do that, he simply doesn't play and the supporters at Casey will have to love him." An outsiders view of MFC's "best"? The comments in the press re Watts are certainly strong. Ed.: Does this mean players have to earn their spot? Shock...Horror!
