Past #28: Robin Nahas - delisted by NM - 34 games for the club - thank you Robin

[DCS OO7]

Well, I disagree with it. First, how can you argue he is 'comfortably' best 22? He struggles with skills and decision-making, problems that are not outweighed by his commitment and endeavour.

Second, there is no basis for alleging people dislike him / judge him harsher just because he came from Richmond. I would estimate that I am in the majority of North supporters who doesn't give a flying f*** where a player comes from in assessing their current worth to our team.

He is in our best 22 because he by far has the most impact on a game compared to the other few players who are not getting a game at the moment.
Tell me which other player would have more of an impact on a game that currently is not getting a game? Answer is NO ONE! You can name anyone in the reserves and they would not compare to Nahas and the type of role that we seek from him.

He is/was disliked or judged harsher than others, I've heard a few choice words sitting in the members area, and as DarkPhoenix pointed out, his clangers are straight away mentioned in his name title of his thread.

Stopped reading after the first line because it completely fails the logic test.

Whatever, could not give 2 shits what you think. Go and learn about football and get back to me.

 

[DarkPhoenix]

I'm not sure how Nahas doesn't do enough when his stats are almost identical to LTs this year and I doubt you'd find anyone that doesn't include LT in the 22.

LOL. Touchy.

To be fair, who is not in the team at the moment that plays the same position as Nahas and would have a bigger impact? There's really only Turner and Harper isn't there?

Turner: A better tackler but isn't the goal threat that Nahas is, also doesn't get as much of the ball. will get there but is inconsistent at this stage.

Harper: Nahas had more goals than Harper had possessions in the VFL the other week and it's not as though that's an isolated performance. Nahas has been fairly dominant at VFL level this season and no matter the love towards Harper, Nahas definitely deserves it more than he does.

Some on here would make Harper TOC Captain if he had stats like Nahas.

 

[Lavy_Panther]

The Nahas thread is just like any other thread on this board. You just have to know whose posts to read and whose to throw in the bin. Funnily, they're always by the same guys.

 

[TwentyNine]

It's disturbing to think that so much of the board would rather play a guy who hasn't done anything in two years than a guy who's averaging 1.5 goals per game for us this year.

Stats are just to add to the discussion. of course, stats aren't always everything and can be misleading.

 

[Benno_900]

Enough with the Harper nonsense.

I don't care how talented he is - if he can't work out how to find the footy after six seasons, he is useless. Nahas is a far superior player.

 

[TooUglyForFugly]

That line of posts only told me that everyone who wants to trade out Swallow deserves a punch in the dick.

As for Nahas, he's doing his job. No complaints here.

So much for Turner tackling more than Nahas.

Nahas needs to improve disposal but is producing more than any small forward not named Lindsay.

 

[TooUglyForFugly]

Honestly every tackle average below Bastinac is rubbish anyway.

And Dumont can't get a game.

 

[TwentyNine]

After yesterday's game the idea that anyone wanted him dropped borders on ludicrous. We would not have won without him.

 

[ThePezDispenser]

I'm thinking he reads bigfooty. Always plays better when the board consensus is to drop him!

Therefore, Out: Nahas In: Harper!

 

[Gorman2Geister]

So glad he didn't try to walk in that first goal, because you know there's that one guy who tried to do that...and...

Go on muppet, tell me now he is not in the best 22?
I'm still waiting for you to just name just 1 player who would have more impact that him.

On another note, bloody well done on the weekend Robin, fantastic game!

 

[scooby1279]

Love Nahas, been a very good pick up. The play in the third quarter running on the wing with Pearce chasing him under pressure instead of blazing forward he stopped, looked around and pin pointed a pass to Petrie? Give his all.

Calm down, precious. No need to get sooky.

Garner, Turner, Wood, perhaps Harper and McKenzie. We need to have a better look at these guys at senior level.

Not denying he had a good game. Indeed, he was excellent. But he is a limited footballer (like Gibson) and I think our team can only improve by playing the better footballers.

Garner, Wood and Turner have potential, but none are currently better than Nahas.
The big thing that helps Nahas is that he knows how to find the goals.
