Stringer would have been a yes from me but not at 600k a year like Essendon offered.....
Would they want to play for us?.....Stringer wanted the dough and I think Watts wanted the 3rd banana role and got some good advice to choose Port who pay well and have the list to make his life easier and play to his strengths....
Watts in our side on the weekend helps a lot.
He can play forward, or run around on a wing.
We lose Casboult from our forwardline, we'd still have the height of Watts to go with Curnowfides.
If Kreuzer plays, Watts goes onto a wing instead of Polsen. Surely an upgrade there.
Not saying he is/was the answer, but he allows us some versatility and cover for situations like what occured with Kreuzer in R2.
