I've agreed with Machiavelli twice in the last five minutes! Somebody pinch me!

Carlton have midfielders coming out of their ears. Lets trade Watts for one (or two) of them, I'd be rapt. Obviously we're not going to get Murphy, Judd, Gibbs, or Brick, but I'd take the pace of Armfield, the ferocity of Robinson any day. In fact, let's bundle up Watts and a late pick and have both of them. At least they influence the contest and do the team things.

I would be absolutely RAPT to trade Watts in on a good midfielder. His pea-sized heart makes me ever so angry every time I watch him play. (Not saying he won't end up a good footballer, but I think the number one thing we need right now is heart, and he has none of it. I would trade him - and it pains me to say it - for Mitch Robinson).
