I thought basically it was the Moo-lay, he just didn’t pull it off. He should have pivoted to a mhan boon and tried to reinvent himself.
He was a tweener. Stuck half way between Nick Cave and a glam rocker - making him useless. Ryan is pure glam rock, which should hold him in good stead.
 
I would agree with that. He has impressed me the most. His fitness is insane. Isn't a stick either, so I reckon he has the body to impact.
Naicos played without a body as did Daisy Thomas in his first year…and beyond. Smarts and skill can carry you a long way. Keen for him to have a crack round one if he has earnt it.
 
I think this guy will win our best 1st year player. Reminds me of a young Dean Laidley.

I’m surprised not alot is said about him.

Showed on the weekend that his got some AFL traits - lovely side step and either anticipates or reads the ball off the boot extremely well - great first game and agree with TradeDraft that he has the skills and style to fit into the senior side seamlessly. Wouldn't say he's ready ATM, but showed clear signs that he will develop into a senior player - great signs for our depth.

Was a bit worried about him after watching the praccy match last weekend but Saturday's game against Coburg has eased those concerns. Has really good pace and his 1v1 defensive pressure is 1st rate. Disposal a work in progress. Can be precise, can be completely the opposite. Had 2 OOF’s and another that was as good as that landed just inside the boundary line when he had time and space to be more precise. Needs a hair cut.

4-5 out on the fulls in the first half? How many cans in were you?
