Great highlights package. He's a great kick from outside the arc.

Having a win was big, having an interstate win was massive. Next two games very winnable, Dogs and the Tigers.

JONES

Can't remember the last time we won interstate.

Must admit I was having a sleep, woke up and turned on Triple M, first thing I heard was "Watts may have done hammy chasing".....thought I was dreaming.

Someone will write "where are the Watts haters now?" Have a crack....wow look what happens.

sadly some of the rot have a year or two left to run on their contracts and they are untradeable.

Have you read the VFL review?

cheers, I'm not across the points system. But that being the case further highlights what a stupid bloody system it is .

Great point. Combined ticket sales from all 18 clubs across all games gets divided by 18 at years end. The Geelongs of the world still own the catering rights. Clubs need to become competitive to get the "exposure games" but all money is shared. Will never happen.

Like Hurleys? He seems to have stalled as well.

I like/agree with a lot of stuff you post but we can't be on the same page here. Watts is naturally athletic, very quick, would be in the top bracket of AFL players in terms of skill/disposal. He would pick up new game plans/styles with relative ease. Were talking about the basics of the game, many of which can be done without the ball. He reads the play well, if these things are not getting done it's purely because he chooses not to do them. Let's no over complicate this.

Watts had one foot out the door last year, Roos signs then Jack signs. Everyone knows Roos wants to play tough, accountable football. I'm assuming they spoke before Jack signed. I'm guessing 3/4 time on Saturday night wasn't the first time Roos has ever spoken to Watts. So what's the problem? Injured? Don't think so. You either want to put in or you don't. Has till years end to prove his worth or we take what we can get for him.

You can't be serious, continual progression of what? If Watts tries any harder to avoid the contest he'll be out in the carpark.

Not a good draft year for many teams.

This year, hasn't had any serious injuries I can remember. As I mentioned earlier we had to give him a chance under Roos, he is flat out of excuses. Only problem is now his trade value has dropped from first round.

So if Georgio repeats the action, he misses a game. Two separate trivial incidents which don't warrant suspension by themselves have their powers combined to total x amount of points which warrants a player to miss games. I always wondered where the Pluck-a-duck wheel wound up.

The whole system is a joke. Not a fan of carry over points. This is a perfect example of why the system is flawed.

I raised the boxing last week, he needs something. Running out of options.

Last year I was on the "trade him bandwagon" but then when Roos signed up followed by Jack I could see how it could work. Watts must be stupid, Roos coaching is half the equation, Watts applying himself is the other. His deficiencies were known to all before preseason started and yet nothing's changed. What worries me now is other clubs would be thinking to themselves the skills have always been there, if Roos can't get inside his head enough to motivate him to realise his potential who bloody can. Last year we could have got a first rounder for him, now any club that sees themselves as challenging wouldn't bother touching him. Would be interested to know how much were paying him.

I was thinking more Nick Reiwoldt but a better kick.

Again.....read post above.

Fair call, I don't even agree with my own comment. I had a big four days.

Tyson has played all of 20 games, Salem a qtr and a bit. Some great kids who will develop together. Dunn's been brilliant. When Garland comes back Pedo might be dropped. Yes he's improved his game but he is depth for the list.

T-Mac stays, Toumpas stays as does Howe. McDonalds disposal isn't as bad as people make out. Toumpas is a 2nd year player. Would like to see him off half back. We need some class from the back half. Howe needs to go back up forward. When Garland comes back this should happen. Still undecided on Grimes/Trengove Watts......my main concern is he's alright. I'd hate to see him put out for a second.
