Anyway, the 2 players that I want from Melb are Petracca and Weideman which is well documented on here. Both those guys are out of reach. Sadly.

I'd still take Watts if the price is right. If pick 36 got it done, I'd take it.

I've flipped a bit over the pick 6 for pick 10 and Watts. I think we could get more for pick 6 if we were to trade it. Originally I was more than happy to take this deal.

It's funny because however many years ago he was the most talented kid that you could go after if you went to the draft instead of trading for rejects.

So apparently we've enquired. Change of club might be the kick up the arse he obviously needs. A third round pick?

Howe and Dunn will have the inside juice on Watts - if we go after him it will be because there is more to his story than hits the papers.

Watts is an absolute elite user of the ball, his delivery is second to none, and he always makes good decisions. All we need is Bucks or someone from the club, Maxy perhaps, to get inside his head, and he will be amazing for us.

Yep, much happier with Watts than Lever.
If we could leave trade period with Watts and Stringer, we'd play finals. Simple as that... But I know we're not after Stringer, crazy.

lever better then watts and way younger.

Collingwoods name gets thrown at players every trade period.
If they are trading for a VFL spot, then go for it. not in our senior list.

If we can get the best out of Watts like we have with Howe and Dunn it would be a big plus. I suspect that under the circumstances he could be the bargain of the trade period. He is a good user of the ball, has some speed and his old team mates would have an understanding of his potential

You sound like a Melbourne plant trying to ruin our Club !
I love this club and I hold anyone in contempt who does not think it is worth fighting for.

Watts would really like to come to the Woods, and join Howe and Dunn, that's my gut feeling !
