optomism is a Hogan and Weideman forward line double act. Would be a great outcome if it can be delivered

Agree. A summer of gym and an angry tablet. Not unlike Wattsy. Big talent. Always excelled at all junior levels. Not the most dynamic trainer. Great skills.

The Crows can fire truck off

Prefer others. Brooksby is a better potential backup option to Gawn

Agree pick 10 & 45 for Lever

Thanks DD. Might be a good move bringing him home

Great article November 2015 by Paul Amy on Balic I also recall Balic training with the Dees in the 2015 preseason

Balic had a medical at MFC today

Balic for pick 64. That’s the deal. Otherwise put him into the draft.

Menzel. Blicvacs or whatever. Stanley. No no no Ffs. Watts is 10x a better player. of course Dangerfield would welcome a classy tall forward. Cats can get stuffed.

Yes absolutely. Roos was always one to respect the club and achieve through the footy club ethos. You need all types. Hard workers. Match winners. Skilled. Tough. Class. Sheer determination. Manage both on and off field. He was spot on in his comments. I am sure he probably still knows what’s going on.

No also not looking at the Dees.

Andrew Brayshaw testing very very well. His second half of the year was superb. Top 10-12 pick. If only we could welcome him but I fear highly highly unlikely.

No no no He looks good then goes missing. Just is a finisher. Can’t accept the clubs stance of trading out Watts and getting someone like Hall. That would be shocking hypocrisy at its finest.

Jack Watts equal 9th in Demonland player of the year 2017. We must all be rubbish judges. Though looking at the list, I think it was a fair outcome overall.

Thanks WJ. Busy day again Just a query. Wattsy.... “performances not up to grade expected of a 150+ game player”. Vince?? 200+ games and offered extension?? How. He was so very very poor in 2017. I thought McCartney and Goodwin said Watts was stuck in a rut, then too inconsistent and then off field example and training were poor. Now not up to 150+ game standard. We would be lucky to get a 4th round pick with all these issues. How can they talk him down then expect trade value pick at 20-25. Strange.

It was a rut then inconsistent. I can quite Goodwin if you like. So things won’t change. Then ... Vince has had two poor years of turnovers and poor discipline. Going backwards. He cost us badly. Is he to be dumped. Tommy Mac makes poor decisions and clangers. No improvement there. His kick out to Cox in the final game was a joke. It happens far to often. Is he to be dumped Tyson is always making poor decisions, turnover king and not turning into the a-grader we were hoping. Poor start and took time to get into ‘17. Is he to be dumped. Col Garland was poor in 2016 and injured all 2017. Not part of any premiership 22. 12-month contract to save him ?? Or Is he to be dumped. No dump the guy with a further 2 years to run, 9 years of loyalty, class, skill and goal kicking.

Well done.

Roos was class. He knew how to get the best out of players. He never blamed the players. Goodwin had done it after 1 year. Goodwin was unprofessional. First it was inconsistent play. Then it was Watts was in a rut. I’m not slamming anyone else. Get the facts. Is it now training standards and example setting? Ok then it’s a third reason trotted out. Or maybe free up salary cap room for Lever?

Half is more than nil. Crazy trade ideas from Wiseblood. Watts for pick 14. But he says Watts is unprofessional and has broken standards. More insults? That’s 1000 insults. Nil content. Yawn

Swans give up pick 14 for Watts. You are giving a ludicrous trade idea. Are you allowed to ? Oh it’s Wuseblood again. The one who says Watts is unprofessional and has broken standards!!

What was incorrect? Or just more of your insults again and again.

Agree. Tippett is useless. Melts like butter

1 Clear lack of professionalism by Goodwin. 2 What was the lack of professionalism by Watts? Not training hard enough.? What a joke. No heavy drinking or breaking club rules. 3 Standards? Try loyalty - Watts has it. 4 standards? Sticking to a contract. Try that. Kent Bugg Vince should all go now. Not adhering to standards Wiseblood again is wrong. Again very very wrong. I’ve lost count. Getting tedious. Big insult from a little man shows lack of your professionalism

Yes Scully Frawley and Howe all left for $$$$$. Watts stayed for less $$$ due to loyalty to mates and the club. What a disgraceful act by MFC
