Essendon vs Hawthorn is playing out like a cripple fight.

Bombers will be on the end of some massive beltings this year playing such a short possession gameplan in their defensive half.


Still don't see how N.Watson justifies being selected at pick 5 ahead of Sanders, Curtin, Windsor and Caddy.
 
I kinda wish we drafted D’Ambrosio instead of Culley given what we lack off HB
go away gtfo GIF
 
This is one of the worst first game if I've ever seen one and from a top pick 5 in Nick Watson

What a dud. I thought he was meant to be quick. Too slow for a forward pocket and at his height doesn't bode well. I'm going to call it early. Won't make it at AFL. That's right. I'm writing him off after one game

Not a wizard. More like a Wizzfizz

This is a really bad first game if I've ever seen one from a top pick 5 from Nick Watson

Certainly hasn't impressed from the limited chances he was presented with.


Did not rate him highly pre-draft:

I don't get the love for Watson tbh.


Yes, he crafty, has a bag of tricks and great goal awareness - but he's a 170cm forward pocket under 70kg.

You don't waste high picks on forward pockets.


Plus, half the time he does these eye-catching turns etc, it would be simpler to just maintain direction and use the opposite foot.

I suspect his potential ceiling may end up being significantly lower than his highlight reel.


He's more like C.Weightman, minus four inches of reach.


Hope for his sake that he proves me wrong.

Poor man's Ginnivan. Today should knock some of the ego out of him.
McKenzie is still built like a schoolboy and plays like one.

Given his rumoured, and occasionally displayed, unwillingness to depart that shitty little SE corner of Australia I won’t shed a tear if he’s a bust
 
They are going to try to bulk up McKercher's numbers to get him the rising star aren't they?

Got five nothing disposals in the last minute or so there.

More likely Wardlaw wins it anyway since he’s still eligible after playing just 8 games last year
