I think he'll be a good player.I thought that too until he played a shocker vs Port....his lack of body on body work for a bloke his size is terrible, his U18 rebounding ability hid his lack of defensive ability and its back to basics to get him up to speed and that could be a couple of years away..Spot on EB.....exactly my thoughts. I went to the Port game thinking Watson had improved immeasurebly, left that game thinking the opposite. He was putrid. Probably the only bad game though he's played and seems like he might've had an injury. They're all putrid at some stage of their careers.If you thought he had imrproved, and i'm sure you wouldn't have been imagining it, then you can't just suddenly write him off after one game.He was bad Jim...that was the old Watson when he first arrived, slow, lacking any defensive plan on his opponents(maybe the coaches fault) and his lack of ability to lay body on Westhoff in particular was U18 kids football stuff.. He arrived late to contests and applied no pressure, when your man is 199cm you need to be pushing/shoving and using your body to upset him.I would have dragged Watson and told to him to stop playing like a wimpy big girl and get physical.....He played crap like many others. Hasn't played many bad ones in the seniors. Not sure Westhoff was the right match up either. Quote Selected

Make sure we are focused for 4Qs and the game is played on our terms. Quote Selected
