without getting on the bandwagon too much ... NN looks like he is already a very good player and I get the feeling he will improve so much yet ...

Re: [News] Eagles push forward with Naitanui 

 I think it's still too early to tell. He is obviously incredibly athletic, but more time is required to see whether he can develop the instinct and intuition required to be a great footy player. Don't peg me as a knocker though, I want him to be great, just not quite ready to take my seat in the band wagon.

Re: [News] Eagles push forward with Naitanui 

 What do you think the chances of him playing his entire career at the Eagles is?

I know it's way too early, but does anyone think he's a contender for a leadership type role at the Eagles?

Way too early, MrWalker, way too early. Couldn't help noticing the URL under your name and wondering whether you were trying to reignite the great AFL tanking debate before the season even gets properly underway. Got me to click on the link anyway. :)

reason I asked is because I remember when Cousins started as a young hopeful... And look where he ended up...

Before he... ummm... ended up...

 

And yeah... Different kind of 'tank'... At least advertising works! :)

All hot air. Hasn't done anything yet ... Doesn't have the footy brain to do anything in the future ...

Re: [News] Eagles push forward with Naitanui 

 That was a particularly nasty comment.  What about giving him a fair go - he's just a lanky kid at this stage.

My comment about him would be - he is looking great - bulked up a bit and definitely more intentional around the pack.  Kicked three goals too - one superb and one super goal.

Roobar will be no use at all if he can't get to the play but runs around like a headless chook.
