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

What a mess. It’s ugly, divisive and without any sign of good character. All MFC players are on notice that a contract means nudda. Rut?? Inconsistent?? Fruckkkk We cry when Frawley and Scully leave. A loyal bloke wants to stay and he is told to fuc))$off.

Well said. It’s ugly. It’s divisive. It repels what a footy club is about.

Agree. It’s ugly. Just when are on the cusp. Standards. Rut. Inconsistency. Rubbish . 6-7 others would have to go or not be extended contracts. Goodwin can’t say salary cap pressures need a sacrifice.

Yes to Isaac Smith. Would be a huge get.

No mention of good bloke. so on the basis of your theory, if we only look at flaws Vince should be gone. Turnovers. Poor tackle. Poor discipline. Garlett should be gone. Tackles like a fairy. Inconsistent. Tyson should be gone. Turnovers. Going backwards. Lacks pace. BTW forgot the fact that he rucked for 5 weeks, to bigger and stronger rucks in 2017. Watch the Geelong game. More Facts ... Watts stands up when others go missing. Watts kicks straight when others don’t. Watts wins games when others can’t.

Just the facts no 1 pick 2008 draft. 153 games. 9 years. Two years left on contract. 196cm Tall forward. Agile. Skilled. Can play forward, ruck relief or rotate back. Loves MFC. 5th in 2016 best & fairest 2017 - preseason accused of not working hard enough - plays 13 games. Included in best players in 7 matches (afl.com.au) - injured hamstring & missed 3 games - comes back, losses form and gets dropped - comes back and one of the best in a very poor final game loss - coach says ‘go explore your options elsewhere’ (aka you are not required) - Watts reinforces wants to be at MFC and see success I am blown away by the disrespect of the club to Jack. This is so divisive to supporters and players.

10 & 27 for Lever is overs. He is a backman who intercepts marks and punches the footy. Not a star midfielder. Not a key forward match winner. Not a commanding key back. Defender. Townsend (a dumped Giant) and him broke even on GF day.

Yes Jack Graham was strangely a slider to the 50s. Was ready to go and mature body, good decisions, smart but lacked a yard in pace. Who cares sometimes. He gets it. He knows what to do. This year Mitch Crowden is that player. Played senior footy. Solid build. Skilled with a 50-60 metre kick easily. But lacks just outright pace. Who cares. He is not slow. Think Matt Crouch just a little quicker and stockier. Could go pick 30 or 60.

Seen Filopovic play in under 18s. Very surprised he was a rookie. Did not show enough footy smarts. He is athletic and was okay at hit outs and centre square leap. But lacked around the ground smarts and no overhead contested marking. Will need plenty of time or a revelatory experience.

Rohan or Tippett for Watts. I would keep Wattsy.

Agree though Filopovic is only a rookie. Skinny. Raw. No football brain. Doubt he will be a player.

Yes we picked Toumpas over Wines Watts over Natanui Blease over Shuey Strauss over Beams Bennell over Sloane lots of mistakes

Thanks FITB. Surely a forward line for talls of Hogan Pedersen Weid and Tmac. Wow looks patchy.

Omg this is crazy time ins. Lever. Impey. Balic. Pick 64 outs. Watts. Kent. Pick 10. Pick 27. Pick. 45 Impey for Watts. A joke. Goodwin would be happy Pick 45 for Balic. A joke. Lever for 10 & 27. At $800k a year, a huge risk Kent gets us pick 64. The wasteland area.

Betts was only being held by one arm and 5 metres out. How could the Tiger biased umps pay that. Frees 19 to 24. And the Crows got the last 5 from 6 in the last 6 minutes when it was over

This is Goodwin not acknowledging a 3- year contract. Goodwin failed to make the finals. Who is to blame?? Jack Watts ?? Really divisive decision to the footy club. No basis. No discipline issues. Can Goodwin get the best from Watts. No he chooses to tell him to ‘explore options to GO ELSEWHERE ‘. That means I don’t want you.

Despair for all if Watts is traded. We have seen the impact of the decisions on Woey, Green , McDonald and the Neeld years

How does Tyson stay? Training intensity poor. Turnover king. Surplus to requirements. Half pace at best.

Support of the club to explore options at 17 other clubs. That means Goodwin wants him to go. That means you are unwanted. How does he stay? He signed a 3-year contract 2017-19. Then after 1 year, ‘go explore your options elsewhere’. Thats not support. That’s clearly means go elsewhere.

Still trying to remember how the Dogs won 2016 Its completely unbelievable that this Tigers team won yesterday. Heart , pressure and belief. hope we play an interstate team at the GF
