Paddy Naish - where is he at?
- Thread starter Tenacious
- Start date
Is there a spot now?
DLTD Grimes Flossy Balta Broad Baker Short.
If we go another small such as Naish then we,re too small. Less flexibility and unable to release Dave or Noah into 2nd ruck.
Dimma seems to think that defensive lineup is a bit tall. It works when we don't have two rucks though.
Poor bugger missed a year of development last year, along with a few of the others.
Maybe Dimma was being tactful instead of using the word receiver.
But hopefully he takes the message on board and is serious about changing his style.
Would have been the perfect game for Naishy. Wide open MCG sized pitch with I suspect not as much pressure as a proper game. Well done , but must do it in the heat of battle with hardened bodies smashing him. I keep going back to the game against the Giants in Sydney last year where he was just not competitive against real hardened players. He needs to step up this part of his game or there is no spot in the team for him.
Does Naish come in to calculations? The more open style could really suit a player with his foot skills.
We need better kicks in the 22 & Paddy has a skill set that may just suit. If not then papers are stamped.

Like-for-like with Egg in terms of the contest. I really don't trust him based on the little I've seen in the pre-season matches.

If Naish comes in it will be for KMac I reckon - he’s a pure winger, the question is whether he can run hard two ways and defend when needed.
Not a bad call. These new rules could save his career, if he could defend a little bit.
His foot skills are totally overrated.
He’s average on most fronts. A modern day Tom Roach and not much else.
Tend to agree. Haven’t seen that much from him that excites me to be honest. His time is now though - we need some pace and flair...he has been in the system long enough.
He doesn’t have genuine pace either. He’s just average on that front too 8ball.
Average kick, moderate leg speed, mostly outside (which is fine if you’re a great kick but he isn’t), lack of strength, smallish at 182. Most vfl games I’ve seen him in he’s just accumulated cheap, short pass offs in the main. Not much of an impact.
He’d want to have found a lot, and quickly, to be a chance to stay on the list after this year.
Stranger things have happened I guess. The current style of play at AFL level would definitely help him a bit.
