I'd be very surprised if Watson isn't traded at the end of the year.

And yes, Rowe can mark. But he's too frightened to do so. We are 6 rounds in and have won two games. If he doesn't have a biit of confidence now, when will he get some?

The character of his group is really developing. That comeback was one of the best last qtr efforts for a very long time.

Important to note that we turned this game around in the final qtr without Judd, Carrazzo, Curnow and lost Yazz at a critical stage.

Best win in years.
Our mistakes and poor use of the ball nearly cost us the win. The usual suspects of course. Robinson near the end with a stupid pass. the bloke can't hit a target at the best of times let alone under pressure. Rowe and White were not our worst tonight, and I thought White improved a lot from last week. Rowe still makes too many mistakes but was better today.

I was very pleased to see Mick tear strips off Thouey for his cr@p play.

But, all in all, a teriffic win,aqnd BUCKLEY, will be a great player for this club.

GO BLUES

Thought Rowe, Jamo and White were very very good.

Jamieson was good, White a huge improvement on what he's been serving up.

BUT, while Rowe used his body a lot and was good in that area, he dropped an easy chest mark, he could have taken an overhead mark uncontested, but went with a double fist punch, he couldn't hit a target in the third quarter with his kick and kicked the ball out of bounds, even though he had plenty of time. He's a panicker and lacks confidence.  If you are not nervous when he's one out with an opponent, then you haven't been watching him.

I keep saying this. I would love him to succeed and take his game up a notch where he becomes as reliable a defender as a Maxwell, a Glass, even a Jamieson. But, I doubt that he either has the football brain or the attributes to do so.

Sat near the bench. Malthouse tore strips into Thouy. Thouy walked up the boundary, came back to the bench, then Mick flayed him again. Gold.

Watson needs to actually show something to be traded.

Lost our run but found it again to snatch victory from the jaws of defeat.

Getting the win in those circumstances could well prove to be season defining.
