Fremantle heads a pack of eight clubs chasing disgruntled Melbourne defender Jack Watts.

The 2008 No.1 draft pick is expected to request a trade at season's end.

Wonder who the other 7 are?

Hope we are not one of them, too much baggage has young Jackie

Still can't believe the Dees took Watts over Nic Nat  ;D

disgruntled Melbourne defender Jack Watts.

 :lol defender??

I wouldn't even call him that, drafted as a forward, stinks it up wherever he plays on the field.

He's another Tambling, this one isn't due to development or lack thereof, this guy is a pea heart and doesn't work hard enough and never will.

At least McGuane punches from behind at a minimum.
Not a defensive or tough bone in Princess Jacqueline's body.

A bad McGuane long term is a safer bet than Princess Jacqueline Tambling Watts.

But watts under Hardwick would improve a lot, he's tall, can run, take a mark, read the play.  He has just been badly coached.  I see potential, just don't expect him to play like Wayne Carey.
