Nick Vlastuin

Houli's having a good game. Grimes saved us more than a few times already. Went off after a knock but came back and is doing well. Vlas is getting there.
completely agree. We are building! Our back six played really well and were under pressure by our silly mistakes (kicking across goals, 50 mtr penalty, 100 mtr penalty against Dusty's soft tap, not clean enough in our forward line). I thought Nick came good in the second half.

I think Father Time is catching up with Bashar. Fantastic servant of the club but I believe his time as a player is coming to a close.
Id rather him go with a bit left in the tank than just limp into retirement one year too long.
He’ll still have plenty of scope outside of playing the game

I find it interesting that they point out Nick , however it’s there network that aired it
Guessing the staffer on the five second delay dump button was napping again. There's a hundred times a game you can see players obviously dropping the F bomb, but it's never heard because the umps mic's are off or they are to far away. One gets heard because the broadcasters aren't doing their jobs properly and suddenly it's the players fault.
Broadcasters love sneaking one or two of these types of incidents in every year because it simply creates massive hype n click bait for their products.

If that results in a fine the AFL would then be compelled to review every bit of audio that isn’t broadcasted for every game. This happens 50 times a game.
AFL likes us to make a weekly donation to SHockings annual Maldives trip , if they can’t fine tooth a fine from a nasty incident they’ll pull the old “think of the children card” with a obscene language fine, most likely around the 20k mark
 
Was definitely a step forward this week Red.
Yes. Especially as the game went on. Took some solid “under the flight of the ball” marks.

One of the gutsiest players I’ve ever seen.

Like our backline in general the last 4 years, totally underrated.

From my re-watching the game I thought that as the game progressed Nick's intercept positioning was improving all the time. The real Vlastuin is close to being back

it looks pretty clearly to me that nick is offering "explanation" to druggy #33 - but the nuffies on twitter are describing it as umpire abuse and trying to get nick suspended. ffs! you can even hear the umpiring defending nick's attempt at spoil
