He’s too bloody good.

Game high 10 clearances as well. Kid is special

'doesnt win contested' is really gonna go out the window now he's playing full time mid all season. Such an incredible player

They’ll start picking on him for other stuff he doesn’t do. Tall poppy syndrome at it’s best.

Hope we’re planning life after the older guys retire because I’m really worried that nick will be stuck with nothing around him.

We will get busy in free agency and trade I think

Outrageously good. Could be a 700 disposal 30 goal season type of player for the foreseeable future.

You’d think so. Players would surely wanna play alongside him.

 

[Fadge]

Don't ya love how everyone has jumped on the Daicos GOAT thread on the main board, scared he'll get Brownlow vote/s despite our five goal loss last night?!?

He also seems to be friendly with players around the comp

Bailey Smith, come on down...

Let's take Timmy English too whilst we're there

I’ll never understand the hate Nick gets. I’ve never seen it this bad with a young player.

TALL.POPPY.SYNDROME.

They are in awe of how good he already is, and petrified of how good he can become...

Would be too much money tied up in a ruckman. We won't do that again.

He'll come to us on a discount, because this is my fantasy

So they kinda admit he was really good amongst the chaos. Otherwise, why stress about it? It’s not like he has a history of getting votes off underwhelming games.

It doesn’t take much at all to get some people going.

Is Nicks injury insignificant?

Don't thinks so as heard nothing about it

he had ice on something, but so did half the team.

It looked like he cramped.

Deserves them. He was head and shoulders best player on the ground.

Not quite sure about that, but would be hilarious if he got the 3 votes...

In fact between him, Butters, Sheezel and a few others we’re about to see some new attacking moves in the game which is great and will make it hard to compare to past midfielders on a statistical basis.

Agree with you. I probably would have gone Rozee rather than Butters. But that quick footed lighter mids with the ability to create space and cut through a defence with decision making and ball use is beginning to trump the dominant trait of the last 15 years - the power to burst from congestion.

 

[Sea fog]

Not quite sure about that, but would be hilarious if he got the 3 votes...

Tom Green was the most influential player on the ground. Their forwards would not have made merry without his play and complete eclipsing of Jordy.
