What has happened to Dan Nicholson?

Recommended Posts

I dont really know.

The last thing I saw of his was "The Bucket List"which was a pretty schmaltzy kind of "48 Hours" for retirees.

Nothing since the 70's has really been any good with him.

I enjoyed "As good as it gets"

Last I can see is jaw injury - Nicholson to miss up to three weeks - from the 30th July.

He would be a chance this week.

Thanks Paul.

He seems to be a forgotten man as he hasn't and doesn't appear in any injury list and nothing was mentioned about him in this week's Burgan/Misson injury update video.

Maybe we are keeping him as a smokey for the finals?

Rather than take five easy pieces he's been working on his game down to the last detail and by all reports is simply shining. Expect his game, if he is named as one of a few good men in the final squad, to be as good as it gets. He's no easy rider is our Nicho!

Randall Patrick McMurphy is the one most Demonlanders can probably relate to .

One of the best roles ever,

Nicholson just needs to work on.......

The Last Detail-What a freakin classic bit of film that is.

My favourite Nicho lines:

"I want you to hold the chicken... between your knees" (Five Easy Pieces)

"He wanted the cheese melted" (The Last Detail)

Got to agree with the "five easy pieces" one hardtack

Still think it is the best ever JN movie.

Surprised you know it from memory that was 1970

Great year for the pies as well

'68 i think. His first feature role

Wouldn't 1968's Easy Rider have been his first feature role? Five Easy Pieces was 1970. He and Dennis Hopper were two of my favourite psychos... Nicholson in The Shining and Hopper in Blue Velvet.

And how could we forget One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest!!

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,

    GALLANT by KC from Casey

    The world “gallant” is not one that is readily acceptable to losing teams in our game of football so when it was used in the context of the Casey Demons’ loss to Sandringham in yesterday’s match at Casey Fields, it left a bitter taste in the mouth.  The Demons went into the game against the St Kilda affiliated Zebras with the advantage of playing on their home turf (not that this has been a major asset in 2024) and with very little else going in their favour. The Saints have close to a full

    MEANWHILE by Whispering Jack

    … meanwhile, at about the same time that Narrm was putting its feet on the accelerator to obliterate the long-suffering Euro-Yroke combination, I heard someone mention in passing that Kuwarna was leading Waalitj Marawar by a whopping 46 to 1 halfway through the second quarter of their game over in Adelaide. “What is football coming to?” I asked myself.  In front of my eyes, the Demons were smashing it through the midfield, forcing turnovers and getting the footy to their forwards who w
