Welcome Bigoa Nyuon

[Berwick boy]

Another Sudanese boy to develop. Pinched from the saints academy.

 

[Ghost of Punt Road]

"Biggy" according to Hocking. He'd know. He does a lot of fan feedback.

 

[spook]

This is a great pick. Even more athletic than Chol and just as skilled. 2.86 for 20m, leaps small buildings. Can play either end and pinch hit in the ruck.

 

[ToraToraTora]

Does everything Chol can do in 1min of highlights plus shows some balls.

 

[ToraToraTora]

Athletic numbers are off the charts.

 

[DavidSSS]

Tall enough to ruck?

Could be planning to use him as a defender or forward I reckon.

Yep. Aliir Aliir type.

 

[tigermike]

Looks better than Chol already in kicking, marking, desire to win possession and judging the flight of the ball.

 

[fastin bulbous]

Can mark, can kick, can run fast, can jump high, works hard. No problems. I recon we’ve decided to go for pure talent over match ready. A great luxury.

Formally pronounced: Big-wa New-on but it looks like Biggie's the nickname:

Fun fact: his elder brother Gach Nyuon played for Essendon, I think the same rookie draft as Chol, but was let go after being charged for allegedly threatening to kill an Uber driver.

We got the better Grimes, Dow and Nyuon.

Yep, absolutely amazing family...... single mum with 8 kids.
Heard him interviewed last week. Clearly the most intelligent of the 3 people involved in the conversation!

Biggy Nyuon on SEN Breakfast (20/11/19)

I like the look of this pick the most of the lot. Some very exciting traits. It may actually help Chol's development too.

 

[spook]

What a great story. Our club really embodies everything that's best about this country.
