[Tassie Cryptik]

A 3 and 2 in the coaches votes.
He has arrived.

 

[smish]

Careless conduct, high impact to the head. How long?

 

[Tassie Cryptik]

Another good game with a few overhead marks thrown in for good measure

Nash was stationary from memory. Libba fell into his knee.

Nash was stationary from memory. Libba fell into his knee.

Yeah. No problem for Nash. Pure accident.

 

[Sixpence]

Nash was stationary from memory. Libba fell into his knee.

Should have been a free to Nash for diving below the knees. Could have broken Nash's leg.

 

[smish]

All good guys. I’m just being facetious.

 

[SSSSSS]

26 touches - 13 contested. 8 clearances.

Kept Bont to minimal impact.

Gives our midfield much needed balance.

Mr. Reliable.
His grunt work has been a huge reason why our midfield unit has transformed into one of the best in the league.

I loved listening to Worps on the radio the other day hated lining up against Nash at training being close to 200cm ……. amazing talent given he is a midfielder.

Imagine how good it is for everyone to have Nash and maginess constantly on you at training

 

[Braidz]

Criminally underrated season outside of these hawthorn walls. I’ve loved watching him this year. Has made the midfield his own and aren’t we so much better for it.
Can’t wait to see how much further he can go.

 

[cryptor]

Day mentioned on the Dyl and Friends podcast that Nash sometimes gets the nickname ‘Brackets’.

Makes the 11 on his back stretch ( )

 

[Judd2Sewell]

Seems to be the antidote to The Bont. Nash doesn't need to tag, he just needs to use his body to force players off balance and get in their way. I daresay he can do the same to all the big bodied midfielders like Cripps, Dunkley, Wines, etc.

 

[Nugett]

Hopefully signs an extension in the off season. Need him for our next premiership tilt. Huge upside for him

 

[Roddy]

Been flying under the radar a little the last few weeks, Nuke, Worps and Day getting all the attention, but still getting the job done.

This is a telling comment - it’s quite amazing how quickly Nashy has become reliably effective and consistent. As you say a huge reason for transformation of our midfield.

 

[Slainte]

Nash averaged 15.5 disposals last season and is averaging 24 this season. Hit outs might have dropped a bit but they never amounted to much. He also does an amazing amount of inside work to keep the ball in contention - most of which does not rate a stat.

Mitchell had him as sub Round 1

 

[daniel23]

I'll put my hand up and say I would never have predicted the season he is having, unbelievable what happens when a coach believes in you.

 

[Tassie Cryptik]

Mitchell had him as sub Round 1

And not once since. Your point is?

 

[grumbleguts]

All good guys. I’m just being facetious.

One of two words with all five vowels appearing once each in alphabetical order. (The other being abstemious.)

For those playing at home who include y as a vowel, the words are facetiously and abstemiously.

 

[hawkman]

And not once since. Your point is?

Just pointing out Mitchell didn't have been best 22 round 1 either. I thought it was crazy at the time but it wasn't just a number of posters on here that thought he wasn't best 22

Still think he is underrated as everyone talks about Newcombe, Day and even Worpel while he gets barely anything. Nash is as important as any of them if not more as he allows the others to look good

 

[f4zz]

Nash with a game high 15 contested possessions- same as worps. Doing a great job and flying under the radar.
