I had the pleasure of watching Jack Watts' first interview as a Melbourne player in the flesh.
He is a wonderful speaker and if his football skills are as good as his interview skills, he is going to be a dead set star.
I predict he is a future Melbourne captain.
The media was in rapture with him, all the questions were directed to him or Dean Bailey about him.
Sam Blease, who was also at the table, didn't even get a look in, prompting Bailey to say at one point "I thought you would have got a question by now Bleasy".
Watts' interview skills had one hard bitten hack commenting "kids get training in this sort of stuff, but that's something else".
You're my only friend, and you don't even like me.
