Lewis is making us worse in 2018 so this will work out in our favour.

Players like Jesse Hogan want to play at the MCG. Not saying he won't leave, but my bet is it won't be to a Perth club.

Franklin left, hawthorn did alright afterwards...

Remember watching him in a practice game at Visy Park in his first pre-season (coincidentally the day Mitch Clark kicked five against us playing for Brissy). Was clearly something special even then. Just an outstanding mark even at that early age.

That's not true. Neeld has not destroyed Jack Watts' confidence. He has proven unable to cope with the demands of being a number 1 pick in the short time he's been in the AFL. Neeld has attempted to help him by releasing the shackles of being a lone forward in the worst club in the land and given him a role playing on a man down back. One which he has excelled in for the most part when fit. I am a huge Jack Watts fan and I am dissapointed that he has not yet reached his potential but I also realise he is 22, and still learning the game... In that Bombers game he was being buried by self doubt on the field. Neeld taking him off was merciful. But let's make one thing clear... Jack Watts is responsible for Jack Watts' performance, no-one else.
