Over their carrers. Michael easily.
As a North supporter Watt has frustrated me greatly over the years. However, now Laidley has realised that he is not a full back he has been played as the third tall off half back. This is his best position as he can match it strength wise with a third tall and use his explosive pace to provide us with plenty of run.
He still tends to make really decsions and will often butcher the ball by foot rather often. He will probably cost us a goal a game on average just through his own stuff ups.
That said he has taken on and significantly beaten the likes of Lyod, Johnson and ................ i'm sure there are others. The key is that he should never be played on the Gorilla fowards.
Watt: 1998 Pick 14 (same draft Matthew Scarlett pick 45) Emphatic LOL.
Carroll: Never done anything worth judging.
Michael: Exposed as the dud he is now he isn't protected at Brisbane by actual good players.
Wouldn't take any of them in a fit.

No, I don't think there are others, and I wouldn't mind some specific details on him beating Lloyd and Johnson, because that is a huge statement.
Made a disgrace of the full- back position over his career, almost laughable, that he went pick 14 in the 1997 pre- season, and even more laughable he is still in an AFL guernsey.

Micheal win very easily. 10x the player of Carroll and much much better than Watt.
and I wouldn't mind some specific details on him beating Lloyd and Johnson, because that is a huge statement.
A big statement or it may mean you just haven't watched that much of him. Has played on Lloyd twice and both times held him to 1 goal. Played on Johnson 3 times and held him to 4 goals, total. In 1 of those matches, Archer's 300th, Johnson kicked 3 of those 4 goals.

Did you read what he wrote? He isn't a FB and only played there out of necessity after Martyn left. Has played as a tall HBF for the last 18 months and his input has improved. And he was recruited from the Ballarat Rebels where he was playing as a ruckman. But he never grew. Fairdinkum, is it possible for some people to actually do some research before commenting?

Hahaha. :o
Carroll is barely an AFL footballer let alone a decent FB. He got on the team bus once and nobody bothered about him. Thats why he's still on their list. Another pearler from the wonderous "expert".

In any other situation I would do some research, but I'm certainly not going to waste my time on Shannon Watt... I mean c'mon. LOL.

Is there such thing as a nil all draw?
but yeah as much as it pains me to say it, at the moment its Carroll.
Michael shits over them both career wise but he is an absolute hack now as is Carroll but he is higher (..or lower im not sure) on the hack scale.
