This was literally his 1st full game. He had 2 goals, set up another, couple of big grabs, good disposal, 5 marks, 7 contested possessions. Pretty good I'd say.Solid win, and more importantly, Saints won which made it a free hit. However, it's hard to take too much out of that one seeing the season is dead.
Main highlights were:
Fog getting 5 in game 100.
Thilthorpes multi-goal game streak extends to 5.
Keays and Rash got another multi-goal game.
Worrell held up against one of the form key forwards in the competition
And most importantly: Curtin gets 2 goals. Tough season for the kid and this one gives him a bit to take out it.
Ah, the non-statistical role. Lets cool the jets here, Curtin barely got 7 touches in his time in the midfield (he picked up another 4 once he switched to the forward line) despite considerable minutes. He's nowhere near ready for it, and would be nowhere near the top 10 in the rising star, let alone contending had we started him as a midfielder since round one.
He may be that player in the future, and there is a lot of upside in his profile. He's not that in the present.
People aren't seriously going down the Nicks didn't have the players at the start of the year path.....
6 goals from centre square bounces, even Bevo was impressed. For a team that got smashed strange that Bevo mentioned he'd struggle to find a play that won their spot?It was a very good win but are the returning posters ignoring they kicked 9.18, we were smashed in inside 50s and we lost clearances despite dominating the hit outs?
Thankfully 2 weeks in a row our excellent forward line were deadly when we got the ball in there.
Big difference when Worrell & Murray are back in the side.He was much calmer and more composed than usual.
Too many on here must be fans of Men in Black...I forgot did we have a massive injury crisis the first month of footy?
That was very good, but you’ve got to admit we were smashed for inside 50s and had they kicked straight we would have more than likely lost and against a team that not many players won their spot….6 goals from centre square bounces, even Bevo was impressed. For a team that got smashed strange that Bevo mentioned he'd struggle to find a play that won their spot?
Part of the coach's job is getting consistency out of the players.If it’s always Nick’s fault when we lose then it has to be down to Nicks when we win.
You can’t say it’s the players when we win and Nicks when we lose. You just look like an illogical idiot. I’m sure you’re not. But your position makes no sense at all.
Haha well he certainly asked plenty of questions but it didn't start off on a good footing.Was Rooch the only Jurno there
I'm not a Keays fan, but he's contributed so much more than I expected of him this season. Good on him.Good - Keays got us off to a quick start... which we have rarely done all season.
He's had a very good year.
And forgot to mention Rachele.Ugly: Nicks specifically named Murphy as one of the dangerous players we have up forward. Wut.
Of all the forwards we have and he mentions the least dangerous!Ugly: Nicks specifically named Murphy as one of the dangerous players we have up forward. Wut.
How much more proof do we need that he he is not very smart...Ugly: Nicks specifically named Murphy as one of the dangerous players we have up forward. Wut.
It appears Nix is only keen to praise players who should be dropped.Why is Nicks so reluctant to give Curtin praise? It's always with a caveat, or a backhanded compliment. Just say the kid had a good game. He played his role in the middle, and kicked two goals when put up forward. It was his first full game.
Dangerous for us or the Bulldogs?Ugly: Nicks specifically named Murphy as one of the dangerous players we have up forward. Wut.
I really liked what I saw from Berry. Really developing into a valuable player.
