Talia.... Why isn't he getting the love he deserves?

[cmndstab]

Great news for Talia and the club...just can't use Jenny DT for mine.

Just on the issue of FB...a left field nom...James Craig, built like a brick sh, good leap, reasonably quick. Everyone seems to have Talia as the heir to the FB throne. Rutten started as a forward. Don't know how he is travelling, but can't see him getting in as a ruck.

I always wondered if Young could be the eventual replacement at FB but his run with injuries has been atrocious. Still, the same could be said of Shaw, so perhaps he's still a chance?

NAB Rising Star nomination for the round

 

[Jars458]

Well deserved DT. He actually could be a smokey for the award as he has been super consistent and the GWS rookies all have their differing charms.

 

[xamol]

Great news with Daniel getting the RS nomination this round. He keeps improving each week. Will be a very good key backman for the next 10 years.

 

[jackster83]

Will we drop him this week then?

 

[Wood_Duck]

Will we drop him this week then?

No, we don't have a senior fringe player to replace him with.

No, we don't have a senior fringe player to replace him with.

 

[Hank93]

Great news with the RS nomination. Has been great all year, and for my own personal gain, I hope he can win the whole thing! ($5 at $67)

 

[Freddy Bassett]

Great news for Daniel and the club. I wonder what those peanuts who were bagging him after the game on 5aa are thinking? Do they realise they have no idea?

Also great to see 100% of Bigfooty supporting the young fella on here. Not a bad word said about him... Would be great if he reads this

 

[SugarShane]

No, we don't have a senior fringe player to replace him with.

Symes would be quietly confident of a call up.

 

[Bacon8]

Think we can all see why Carlton tried to poach him now, after his first year here. (Remembering they drafted Lucas instead of him)

 

[MarcusP2]

New Presti.

Did you know when you said this that his nickname around the club is actually Presti?

 

[cmndstab]

Great news for Talia Well deserved, too. He's been doing a great job.

We really do seem to be able to produce key backmen at will at the Crows.

 

[PyroCrow]

About time.

In a few days, I think it's on Wednesday nights AFL 360, can someone please upload the NAB rising star segment Alistair Lynch does.

I have seen a few during the pre game Sunday fox coverage but don't get time to watch the week night show.

 

[FantasticShirt]

Did you know when you said this that his nickname around the club is actually Presti?

Yes. The players have been calling him that on Twitter for weeks.

 

[OldCrowBloke]

Great to see Daniel get the RS nomination.
Listening to his presser, and interview on AA, he sounds like a ripper young bloke.
Has an Adelaide girlfriend, loves the beaches and loves life in Adelaide.

Big week for him when you include the Golden Fist!

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

Really pleased for him

Having a great year. Just the tonic after Davis left. A 200+ gamer if ever there was one.

I've got to admit that I was originally a little doubtful when I saw the haircut but he has assuaged those fears. I'll no longer worry if we draft a player who looks like a complete spanner

He does that on AFL Insider tonight. I'm not home, but I'm sure someone on here will be able to do it. They also replay it a few times throughout the week (just the RS segment), so I'm sure you'll see it at some stage.

 

[Footypie32]

Firstly, well done to Talia.

Now to the OP:

Reason #1: He's a defender.

Reason #2: He's a defender that doesn't get lots of pad stats.

Reason #3: He's a defender that doesn't get lots of pad stats and he plays for Adelaide.

I think that just about sums it up.

 

[OrdinaryJoel]

Talia has been a revelation for us this year! I remember the draft where we drafted Talia and I saw his junior credentials and it said All-Australain U-18 backmen I think... Anyway I was very pleased we drafted him and thought he was always better than Davi$. He has the length, speed (deceptive), athletic tools, marking ability and nagging abilities to shut down any forward! Where ever he plays, either CHB or FB in the future, he'll be the epitome of a solid defender!

How do you feel about Dylan Orval?

As stated it was on tonight, he's conceded 13 goals in 11 games. Huge effort.

 

[cmndstab]

How do you feel about Dylan Orval?

With a hairdo like that I'll bet he plays reserves for the whole season

 

[JP Sauce]

His expression is worse than his hairdo.

Is weed on the banned substances list?
