Will be an absolute star. Just a matter of picking when. In the same boat as Dangerfield.

Well I'm hoping for my Euros sake :P I think he has shown with a few of his numbers that he can really rack up when pushed up the ground. This will be more evident as he becomes more mature. Also recruiting Mitch Clark helps too :)

Does Mitch Clark hurt his scoring though maybe next year?? Clark will be the main target and Watts may need some time to adjust

Possibly but i see the reverse effect. I don't think that Watts was the main target anyway, more Jurrah. Watts should moved on the the HFF and then up onto a wing imo.

elephants is right

with the bigger body of Mitch Clarke in the goal square Watts shouldn't be getting the number 1 backman every week

also with his athleticism should produce more marks and tackles (im not sure he will score a heap more goals)

Yer Cic wen u and Ele put it like that maybe he will do alot better :)

If i had a dollar everytime I've heard that in my house, I'd have one dollar. Who calls there kid elephants?

owenbond007

Show glimpses of brilliance last year. Can he become premium this year?

Football Factory


picker_man

thats prolly the problem with pickin him in dt it was only glimpses so will prolly wait a yr or two till he's had a chance 2 show he's more consistant
nd i still rememba his first game against the pies and maxwell came to the wing to smash him in a tackle when he had his 1st touch haha funny times

Windigo

Definitely worth a look. But I doubt many people will pick him this year.

Ziplock

can't justify him with all the midfielders given dpp status...

At $359K I think he slides in below the cost of a lot of "better" options but still agree with Zip he is a hard guy to pick being a Demon. Clark will help him more than any other but he still needs ball and opportunities to score really well.

What really turns me off is this, and if anyone can explain why the inconsistancy and what migh change maybe i'll look more closely at him, but on the back of 2011 he is a firm no for me.

his a young developing KP forward?

its not the inconsistency that's weird, it's who it's against that's flowered

104- stk
106- freo
104- carlton

48-Brisbane
39- GC
48- PTA

what type of flowering forward scores his three highest scores vsing top 8 teams, and 3 lowest vsing the bottom 3????

*note* cant actually remember specifically where brisbane finished, but it was bottom 5 for sure :P

He scored the 39 v Gold Coast because he was the sub. The other games I'm not sure what happened, but it's his poor finish to the season which counts against him. did Melbourne just have nothing to play for by then? Perhaps, but it'd take a huge NAB Cup showing for him to come into starting consideration at $359k. Prefer christensen or J-Brown.

BIGCOLSYLVIA

Surely Jack has to be under consideration, last year was effictively a brake out year considering how bad his dt scores were at the start of the year. He is likely to push his average even higher was some support for him in the forward line, plus another big pre-season for Jack.
Right now i dont have him in my team, but he good be a really good pick this year?
Anyone agree and reckon he is worth the risk?
