Nic Nat

With Nic-Nat coming out of contract do we give ourselves any chance of putting up an offer that could tempt him? I'm sure Frawley would be looked at by West Coast as a perfect replacement for Glass next year.

 

I reckon he is overrated, would much rather see us pick up mundy for a couple of years, Goldstein is a free agent this year but we'd have to pay overs to get him

He is a gamer changer - how many of those are there in the AFL ?

Even if we drafted him ahead of Watts he would have made his way back to WA by now. He aint goin anywhere

5mil 5 years is supposedly what they were saying on AFL360 iirc

Lol, no thanks

Isn't that the sort of money we're paying Clark and Dawes who can't get on the park?

Not saying I'd go after Nic Nat though.

 

As people have mentioned, overrated, very overrated. I'd much rather us look at getting Fyfe for 800k per year. Gawn will step up and so will the other Max, King, we'll be right with our rucks.


most overrated player in history

Surely Travis Cloke wins that mantle hands down, but I hear what you're saying.

No, there is a bloke at GWS being paid Ablett money, who wins that by a country mile.

He will be west coast for life.

An infrequent one at that.


It is good for us that both Nic Nat and Fyfe are out of contract at years end.

Both WA clubs will have to offer these blokes big money.

The less money these WA clubs have to throw at Hogan, the better.

But if they clear the space in the salary cap and lose either of these two (or a player like Mundy) then they will have $$ to throw about at the end of 2015

I'd advise every club to put in an offer. He's probably not leaving but may as well up the price they will pay him.

Josh Kennedy is a legit top key forward. And they have some very nice solid midfielders in Masten, Selwood, Shuey. But so far Nic Nat is the only player on their list who really looks like a game breaker. Which isn't that amazing we don't even have one player who can claim that and a lot of clubs have one at best. But my point remains Nic Nat at this stage is their great hope. If West Coast take themselves out of future serious quality FA discussion by paying Nic Nat over 1 mil per year then that's great for everyone.

He is just over paid not overrated. Still has potential to be a very good footballer in son emerging outfit. He is just overpaid for it....by s country mile

Yes, he might still come good but I maintain that a person's remuneration is usually directly related to how highly he is ranked and therefore, he's overrated.


I too reckon he's overrated. The year he made AA he didn't come top 10 in his B&F.

That said, I reckon he'd rather drink acid than play for us. Also, there's no way he'd contemplate leaving West Coast. He loves the place.

And it would be a tad embarrassing when we could have had him.

On many fronts this is a disastrous suggestion.

I think Nic Nat is a star but I am not sure you want to pay anyone 10% of your salary cap.

I would go hard after Blicavs from Geelong instead.

I think with the club debeloent over the past few seasons, we could have picked any of Dangerfield, Fyfe, Natanui.. And all would be less the footballers that they are now had they arrived at Melbourne. In which case we would probably be talking about the athleticism of watts running around subiaco, blease tearing up the gabba and the like. I know there have been se disastrous selections, but poor development is the backbone of our struggles now.

 

no thanks

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
