Missed a soda shot on goal from 30 metres out.

Dead set looks like he struggles to kick 40mtrs

Not sure what we are doing with him in the team.

Not his fault he keeps getting picked

I like his commitment, and I’m sure the coach does too, but I don’t think he’d be seen as a long term solution. Structural placeholder for Steely Green or Seth Campbell would be my guess.

Definitely provides a lot more bite and spark than MRJ and Ross. Good selection to keep him in, great spirit and tries a lot

You've changed your tune. You were gunning for him to be punted in the first few rounds.

He may be one of those players like George or Kamdyn that plays a role that has benefits the average punter doesn't notice until they're more established.

Yeah I thought I would try a different tack, wasn’t easy to type that..!
Too frustrating otherwise. If can’t beat em join em etc.
I honestly don’t understand how he gets a gig ahead of Ross and MJ , especially Ross who has been torched

He is miles off what Kamdyn does, athletically as well. And he can’t bring what George bought at his best either

I agree, it's a left field from my perspective but you've got to have faith that the coaches see something in him to warrant selection.

He may be right now, but Dimma seems to highly value things like running patterns and pressure acts over disposals or goals which I suspect is why he's still getting games. Reckon the latter will come in time.

MRJ goes. Nigel stays. Works for a living. Not much more to report.

Obviously the 28 times we handed over the ball in the forward line in the first half last week were not seen as Nigel's fault in the coaches' minds.
