Watters is a very poor coach!
Yes we won but put it in context - with an opposition like Melbourne he shouldn't have been satisfied with nothing short of a 15 goal win! Our insistence on looping the ball backwards to go forward is a completely negative tactic. To me we are playing a soft WAFL style of football with most players unable to win one on one contests. Our defenders are poorly coached as are our mids on top of our forward delivery we have become a very ordinary football team ! The way we finished that game off is indicative of a team with no hunger or expectations.
I have said it before and will keep saying it until Watters improves or they replace him - Watters is a very poor coach!

Hmmm why am I surprised.....well not really as I have said before you have it in for Watters. Even after a week from hell for the club and we still come out and win, you still think he should go.

Re: Watters is a very poor coach!
Certainly need a bit more time to come to that conclusion.
More worried about the assistants,they seem lame.
We really need to show some improvement , which hasn't happened this year,kis or no kids.

100 goals in 14 games...Lockett is the key
Re: Watters is a very poor coach!
There is a lot of aspects to coaching an AFL club.... He is very good WRT some of those....
Tactically he is struggling this year.....
How did Jack Newnes end up at FB on Jeremy Howe in the third quarter??.... Roberton, Dempster, Gwilt???

Don't win one on one contests? Pretty sure we won the contested possessions count today!
Going backward to go forward. Hmmm can't always kick the ball fwd if there isn't a target there.. Ever heard of the switch tactic?
Defenders poorly coached - I think they are doing a good job considering we don't have a genuine 'key' defender at the moment.
Once we were 50 points up this enabled Watters to play Murdoch on jones, Webster on a wing and Dunnel Ross newnes and milera through the middle. Yeah we didn't blow them away, but we gave the kids big game time in important positions. Important for our DEVELOPMENT. Unless you would prefer Dal, Joey and Jones on the ball the whole game? Yeah we'd win by more, but would be developing our younger players??!
How about you give us some real substance as to why Watters can't coach. Didnt hear much from you when we beat the blues???

We have a skill edge on them but their effort was 20% better than ours tonight.

How do you come to that conclusion? 16th V 17th and the game is won after 10 minutes.
