Oh did we? Guess we cant recruit him now!, A bunch of demonlanders dont like the idea.

You guess right. In case you missed the last 20 odd years, light, outside, undersized opportunists who go missing when the heat is on have seen us lose pretty much every game in which hard-nosed, big-bodied, head-over-the-ball competitive animals were needed to stop us getting monstered.

Nahas appears to have fallen out of favour with the coach, like Ball did with Lyon and more recently Savage with Clarkson.

Had kicked 97 goals from 77 games coming into this season and he's 25.

I'd be happy with getting him as a Delisted FA.

I don't know about Savage falling out with Clarkson, I don't see any evidence that he did, but I do know that Ball, fallen out or not was, is and always will be much better footballer than Nahas.

Nahas can't get a game with the tigers because he is a greedy little ego-brat. can't see his team-mates for the goal-posts.

Agreed - forward pocket isn't just a position for rotating midfielders.

i think a few coaches might disagree with this especially this season as the rotation cap comes in

wouldn't be surprised if it is further reduced in coming years

forward flankers and pockets will be increasingly used as midfield rotations

some specialist forwards (non KPF) might survive but they will become rarer

If you want Nahas, even as delisted FA, then you have have list space to fit him in and therefore be prepared to give up pick 57 or Jetta or Nicholson for him.

Not worthy of pick 9 and unlikely to be available at pick 40, how exactly would the "gamble on Garlett" happen?

If we can get him at pick 40, great! And its a gamble on attitude. If not available, oh well!

I'm not sure I'd even give up Nicholson for him. Nahas is a complete spud. How this has gotten to 4 pages is amazing.

Not certain this is a criticism Wretched. Robbo and Brad Green for example weren't noted for giving the ball off if they were within a taxi trip of the goals. Milne and Harvey likewise ( even though I hate both those rats) did likewise. In the past Kevin Bartlett was called Hungry - it goes with the territory.

Ridiculous comment... hope we take him just to p!ss you off. I for one think he would be a good get if he costs us nothing.

He definitely adds something that we don't have, a small crumber with genuine pace.

No point talking about it anymore.

Actually we quite often revisit threads like this one when said player carves us up and we passed on an opportunity to sign them for next to nothing.

Complete Spud???

In his best year 2012 (22 games) he averaged 1.6 goals a game from and average of 13 disposals around 36.8 goals for the year (23 rounds), well above our best foward for last year and definately better than any of the existing small forward options mentioned. He made 83 tackles averaging 3.8 a game. Both of these stats are incidently higher than Jack Kings. He is definately not a spud and crumbing around our talls kicking 36 goals for a late draft pick in my opinion would be a good thing.

There is obviously a reason King is preferred at the Tiges but I back in Roos to make him the player we need and I recon he would be a great pick up for the Dees.

Clearly missed the earlier post where he joined North.

Nahas might have been handy but I'd rather develop an extra midfielder each week. Plus I think we really need 3 draft picks in the ND.

I wouldn't be using King as the benchmark for anything, the Tiges are going nowhere until he is moved on.

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.

    2024 Player Reviews: #3 Christian Salem

    The luckless Salem suffered a hamstring injury against the Lions early in the season and, after missing a number of games, he was never at his best. He was also inconvenienced by minor niggles later in the season. This was a blow for the club that sorely needed him to fill gaps in the midfield at times as well as to do his best work in defence.

    The first round draft pick at #13 from twelve months ago the strongly built medium forward has had an impressive introduction to AFL football and is expected to spend more midfield moments as his career progresses.
