Lol at Melbourne fans trying to spin if Watts is consistent this year it’s on him and not how shit an organisation they are and how badly they treated him.

Lol. If they can't get the best out of their players, it's on them.

Jack was great today..classy player..3.3 should have been at least 5.1 but he will do that next week no probs.

Tight race there between Jack and Jack.

Jack Watts.

 

[Macca19]

He looked and acted like a leader out there today

 

[LittleLika]

Will the real Jerka (Watts) please stand up

 

[TheFVK]

Only his 2nd 20 & 3 since 2011.

Solid start

 

[TeeKray]

Reminded me of Big Dix's first game for Port against the Saints. Kicked his 3, could easily have had a couple more. Looks refreshed and glad to be playing in a proper team for once.

 

[gtrxuone]

Really solid game. 12 kicks,8 hand passes,4 tackles and 2 hitouts and 3/3.Sucked his defender out of the back 50 a number of times.Leaving a very open fwd line for the fast moving midfield and half back flankers.

Just watched the replay. Melbourne are ****ed in the head giving us this guy for a 2nd rd pick. Unbelievable

Main board Melbourne fans - He often put up those performances for us, but then did nothing other weeks. 2nd time in 7 years. They generally like Watts, but they really are clinging to the farcical view that Melbourne as a club ran things well and it's not the clubs fault. It'd be like us saying Port 2009 - 2012 was a well run club on and off field, despite all evidence to the contrary. I think one of the things I like about our supporters, at least BF supporters, is (unlike the defunct The Power from Port groupthink), we haven't bought into the sipping of the bathwater when things were shit, like Adelaide, Melbourne and Essendon fans (to name three obvious offenders).

Hmm, looks like Jack is on top this morning.

It's amazing. All they had to do is recognise and use him for what he is: a 2nd tall supporting the main guy (Hogan for them). They probably still don't see it.

 

[Holden Hillbilly]

Watts and Marshall can kick goals from 40 metres out and on an angle.

We need that to win finals.

All Australian lock it In

When have we had those capabilities...? 1999?

Greatest player of all time

Greatest sportsman to wear the number 23.

Roos saw it. He actually had a really good year playing second banana to Hogan in 2016. Then Goodwin took over as coach and ****ed it all up.

Great get. Goodwin and Viney never understood Jack's running off the ball to try to open up the forward line, because they never played that way. Was really impressed with Marshall's off-the-ball running too.

Lol at Melbourne fans trying to spin if Watts is consistent this year it’s on him and not how shit an organisation they are and how badly they treated him.

They are not a shit organisation and should do well but perhaps played him in wrong position and Goody was able to use him as a scapegoat. I agree it’s a bit rich of the supporters to now say that if he does well at Port it reflects badly on him. I think it more reflects he’s a better fit for us and Kenny is able to get the best out of him. I guess they would just be disappointed that’s all.

Yes he's a clever footballer.It was to to move on from theDees.Marshall a lovley kick of the footy.

I've finally relented after all these years and ordered a Foxtel installation. Jack Watts is a major reason behind this move.
