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

Local league footballer who has inexplicably duped 2 clubs into thinking there is something there.

If it came down to Pink v Biggy, you take Pink everytime. At least Pink knows hes playing AFL and not Div12.

I'm sure he's a lovely bloke.

Or maybe just duped one bloke twice.

Like i said after the recent drafting debarcles surely thursfield is on watch.

Pink has zero upside and afl qualities, has duped 2 clubs into wasting a spot on him

Biggie has speed and a big leap, he looked good in the preseason and early on in the season

What a load of rot, looked like a turkey among eagles.

Pink has a semblance of understanding at least.
What games were you watching??
His first was underwhelming, the second was the worst game i have seen anyone from any team play in a long time, if thats your pass mark bar it explains a lot re your wider posting.

Biggie is 23.

He has the size of a footballer.

If he had the ability of one then we’d have seen him at some point post bye.

That he is not in this week tells you exactly where he is at.

Pink is a stop gap measure, but at least he has some ability to run to structure.

Contracts aside I doubt either will be on our list in 2026.

Biggie has been injured for the last month….

So has ccj but dont change the fact they are both rubbish.

Both rejects from the only team below us on the ladder.

Cool.

Where was he between round 8 and round 19?

Big looked mediocre in the first game and then put on two of the most embarrassing games I have seen from a professional footballer in the blue and white.

You are blinkered.

 

[tazaa]

I mean 3 pages on a guy who is no good.
We know he's shit. Move on.

Just pay him out Monday and get someone else in.

Need more than physical attributes to make that.

Big has no want. Who cares if he has a big leap if he does jack shit with it? Pink will crash a pack. Biggie has speed & a leap, and plays like a piss ant back flanker in the mould of Stephenson/Fisher/Stephens when it comes to body contact.

You seriously can’t identify players if you can’t sort this out. Pink isn’t good but he can be plonked at a spot and you know at least he’ll have competed

Arguing about which of Pink or Biggie is better should be done in the rock bottom thread shouldn't it?

It's like discussing if you'd like to be punched in the mouth or nose. They're both horrific choices.

Ha ! So so true & very well said
How low have we become as supporters?!
We are definite bottom feeders if we are arguing on who’s better out of these 2

 

[harper2bastinac]

Pay him out, an 18 year old kid drafted late would offer more then him

Should be discussed on the fools thread.

Pinky aint no world beater but he is a solid vfl slash depth option.

The other bloke is living proof that you dont need to be able to football if your 200cm plus. See also jacob edwards and callum coleman jones.

 

[King Corey]

Biggie is a mystery. 200cm, beautiful judge of the flight with his marking, good kicking and agile.

Yet hasn't clicked.

I can see why 2 coaches have tried their hand at turning him into a regular AFL player.

Based on 3 games i saw i sure as hell cant.

The bloke didnt even know which way to run.

If you want some one that can run and jump get Tim Forsyth out of retirement from thorpdale.

 

[koshari]

Lol

My takes are spot on most times

As comedy

 

[muttley45]

I just compared to him to Mac Andrew on Footywire, listed as 197cm/90kg v 202cm/84kg, rubbery figures ?

He's a big boy. If he can develop enough smarts and urgency there's a project there still.

5 seasons on an AFL list, 2 clubs, it ain’t gonna happen. He’s not starting from a mild deficiency in urgency and smarts, he’s just about the worst in the comp. It’s a long way back. If he was the athletic profile of a midfielder he wouldn’t have even made it onto a list.

Stranger things have happened.

 

[HTPunter]

Plenty of armchair experts here. Biggie has played, currently, more games than any bigfooty gronk will

Surprisingly, I expect more from our players than “better than Bigfooty posters”. Secondly, the teams we play are not made up of Bigfooty posters. Instead they are professional footballers and play like it. Thirdly, if Rawlings & Thursfield knocked on my door to give me a 2 year contract - I’d obviously take it for my own selfish reasons, but I’d still be fuming at their incompetence.

 

[HTPunter]

I was at the North v Adelaide game. Most frustrating player I have ever seen. So far off it. Not surprised a halfway decent AFL coach (who has played AFL Krakouer Bonar !) stamped his papers after that game.

I reckon you can’t genuinely appreciate how bad he is until you’ve been at that game live. So if you think he’s going to be a player still, invent a Time Machine and buy yourself a ticket to Tassie and watch that game and tell me I’m wrong.
