Sounds like the best 8 posession game i've heard of. Petterds 14 tackles (13 in the forward 50) on Saturday must be one of the all time great games if we judge by the same criteria.

You have already stated that you didn't watch the game so stop commenting on Naitanui's game or actually watch it and then come back and say what you thought of it. So tackles is all that counts now? Naitanui also had 17 hitouts and a goal not that it'll change your mind about his game.Sounds like the best 8 posession game i've heard of.

I did not see Watts yesterday so cannot comment but I still don't believe he has the desire to be truly great.
For some reason I sense a bit of panic from certain Melbourne supporters when the whole 'Watts/Naitanui' thing comes up.
You could say exactly the same about a lot of WCE supporters, but I can't figure out why.
Naitanui was good yesterday. Not great.
Was brilliant in the ruck and a good defensive presence.
But he needs to affect more marking contests as a 200cm player, just my opinion of course, as well as putting his athletic ability to better use.
Outrageous talent, but like Watts is no where near what he could be.
We have nothing to worry about, we didn't have the first pick.
Nicnat might just be one of those freak talents, or he might not. At the very least it looks like he'll be pretty bloody good, one way or the other. Watts also looks to have a very bright future too, but ol' Nic might just be something else ...
At the end of the day I love watching him run around, and if the Dees and the Bombers feel the same about their respective players, there are no losers, are there?
Three very different players. All will be very capable of turning games on thier ear.
Watts to do it the most consistently, Naitanui to do it the most emphatically.
Love Hurley but athletically inferior to the other two and as a result more stoppable.
please, one minute you Melbourne fans are saying
simple fact
so far Hurley's best is much better then Watts best. yet Hurley has played nearly his whole life as a defender, just learning how to play forward now.
yet Hurley has still had better games then Watts at CHF.
simple fact
so far Hurley's best is much better then Watts best.
Haha, what a myth.
Just cause you say it, it doesn't make it true
Hurley's best performance is better than Watts' so far, but not by THAT much IMO.
It'd be awesome if Hurley was to play on Watts next time we play, stars of the future going head to head
Really? I know you like to agree with opposition supporters on points to seem impartial, but what Hurley game has been better than Watts' against St Kilda this year? Or Watts against Freo? Even against the Tigers he was given BOG by many journalists etc, and it wasn't even his best match to date.
