Jack Watts - 3 more years

[demondavey]

Announced today that he has signed for another 3 years at Melbourne. Personally I am pretty happy with Jack this year, he has improved a lot and I think the latter part of his career could be his best. He is never going to be a brownlow medallist or a power forward, but he is going to be a more than serviceable and above average contributor week in week out.

 

[BallaratBulldog]

Never thought he would leave after the club persisted with him for so long.

Why is this even a thread on the main board?

Melbourne board is that-a-way >>>

 

[Rion]

No offence to the guy but he gets way too much media attention, both positive and negative. Who cares?

There have been a number of threads on this board over the years maligning him so I don't see any harm in a good news story on him and his future and the MFC rewarding him for it

How is this any different to the JJ thread?

Jack Watts....that's why.

 

[McRobie]

Ouch....

 

[TedDougChris]

Greatly improved player this year, hope it continues....

So every player who resigns gets a Main board thread?

So every player who resigns gets a Main board thread?

Nah, only those who pull their finger out for half a season to dupe their team into giving them another contract.

No, but those who re-sign do...

Will we get two seasons of mediocrity before his next 'contract season'?

Followers of baseball will know what I mean.

Credit where it's due...That finger was a LONG way in, and quite firmly stuck.

 

[Hawkboy62]

Good for him! Has had a good year and is a skillful player. I'm sure that he would have attracted quite a few decent offers, including some from contending clubs.

 

[Ron The Bear]

Had written him off as poison but he's come good this year. Good luck to him.

 

[WhiskeyTangoFoxtrot]

No, but those who re-sign do...

Seriously, whomever decided to make re-sign and resign mean completely different things should be shot. Probably the same person that came up with bi-weekly and couldn't decide whether it meant twice a week or once every two weeks!

The importance of a hyphen!

 

[Collins-Langford-Ayres]

Always thought he'd come good. Jack Watts polls need to be replaced with Tom Boyd polls.

 

[Big Fresh]

The JJ thread was stupid too.

 

[Sando22]

Every man and his dog has given his opinion on Jack Watts so I don't have an issue with this Thread

 

[t_94]

Why are people making a new thread every time someone from their team re signs?

Sounds like Waite back in his Carlton days.

[La Dispute]

What position is he playing this year?
