Past #28: Bigoa Nyuon - delisted end '24 after 3 NM games - thanks Biggie

[koshari]

Not adverse on continuing to play him given the void of alternatives but sheesh dunno for how long.

 

[Reagan Smash]

Not his fault we are negligent in our list management

 

[koshari]

Not a single redeeming feature.

Absolute negligence from whoever watched him and thought ‘I reckon we could have something here…’

I did get almost forgiving as opposed to seduced after a couple of effective disposals but the following 5 clangers definitely had me reeling in reverse.

Yeah he's not even the the third worst player in our backline lol.

 

[ChairmanZia]

yep, fair call. Embarassing that our talent acquisition watched him play and wasted a draft pick on him.

Pathetic that Clarko picked him then after last weeks effort picked him again.

Well just like ccj, if not him then who else? we need to have someone in those positions.

 

[RossHenshaw]

We should never ever trade with Richmond again

So not true , he made me laugh watching him attempt to play football.

That’s one redeeming feature. I also laughed when someone quipped is he high.

So wrong mate. Bigoa is in the side for comic relief.

 

[gokangas]

Rawlings - any players available over six foot?
Yeah, Bigoa Nyuon at Tiggers.
Go get him now.
OK - signed him.
Great - can he play?

 

[BlueandWhiteinmyBlood]

He was about to be delisted but we threw them a pick because we're good blokes.

The reason we traded for him was because if he came as a free agent it would have diluted the compensation we got for Mckay, pick 3 (4)

He’s a good athlete, can mark and spoil and kick, and looks fine when he’s concentrating/playing accountable footy.

Nfi what he’s doing the rest of the time though. Never seen a player appear to put in as little effort as he sometimes does. It’s really bizarre.

He really is puzzling. Sometimes he looks like exactly what we need him to be for now (doorstop fix for our KPD crisis) and then other times he plays like he just found out what footy was yesterday. Jogging after his man, caught way out of position, late to contests, etc.

I was worried when he was rushed to debut off of the Dawson injury more than any strong VFL form (I'd had a bad feeling that he was going to be a total dud for us) but was pleasantly surprised by how he went in the Geelong game. Then it all went south with him.

Genuinely hard to choose between him and Pink now. Biggie's best is superior, but his worst is SO bad. Pink is more just a normal, consistent kind of bad. Who knows, who cares any more.

 

[Roosurgence]

This bloke has NFI. Was the Geelong game a miracle?

After all is said and done as crap as this bloke is, I would still play him in front of Corr.

At least he gets the odd spoil in.

Pretty sure delisted free agents aren't included in the compensation formula.

 

[Zondor]

Can you please email Rawling with this information? :stern look

 

[Roosurgence]

 

[Ischenko]

Reckon he should be tried forward. When Dawson is back.

 

[King Corey]

Don't mind him. Sorry.

 

[The acurate one]

Don't mind him. Sorry.

I accept your apology and thank you.

 

[CBSlogger]

Lol were such desperate lot.

Debating which flop is slightly better or worse, under certain occasional, less important circumstances, than an other absolute flop.

Were so far away from having a competitive group of talls is not funny. It's utterly deflating.

Our current group may collectively be the worst in history.

I'd like to think I'm not desperate, more realistic. And personally wouldn't bother playing anyone who hasn't a future with our club.

If that means play short.

oh well

 

[Merlin007]

Don't mind him. Sorry.

don't be - esp. against Hawthorn, imo he was mostly found out by the ball going over the back after the zone in front of him collapsed

 

[Errol Street]

Sorry but we dont believe in playing players forward.

 

[Arthur Cloke]

If Biggy starts looking elsewhere, am I right in assuming we won't receive any compensation for him? Any idea what sort of deal he is on? And would we have the opportunity to match it?

Well yes but if there’s a bidding war which is likely we may get the goose that laid the golden egg

 

[RHLK]

Not sure what this bloke brings that Will Dawson can't deliver.
