We all got a glimpse of Nick on the ball last night.
He’s a sublime talent. His composure and ball use under heat was a joy to watch. He’s always been a goal kicking mid as a junior and he continued those qualities with a ripper last night.
We are indeed, very blessed to have both of Peter’s sons representing the club for many years to come.

He has also got the angry competitive streak in him. His old man and Josh are/were similarly calm, Nick has some fire about him to go with the skills.

Yep and his composure in all situations is way beyond his years.
I can't believe how good this young bloke actually is. Exceptional talent.

He could be the most precise kick of a footy over 30 metres I've ever seen in B&W. FWIW I'd have Bucks over 40 metres.

Yeah, I noticed he had some feistiness about him last night :lol: He was itching to get in close when the Ginnivan incident erupted.

His first goal at AFL level was an absolute pearler.

Yes Pyranees, was a goal from the second it left his boot, and split the goals right down the centre.

Absolute top drawer from that angle.

It's going to be a treat watching all the ones that follow

He has all the attributes of a Judd, and dare i say it, a Dusty. A gem.

In Quaynor and Daicos, we seem to have at least two players capable of being named AA every year for a very long time.

Add to those two, Moore, Elliot, Grundy, DeGoey, Crisp and Adams all of whom are elite and we at least have 8 players on whom we can build for a tilt at the flag in two-three years.

Note: i have excluded Howe, Pendles and Sidey cause i dont think they will still be elite by the time we are serious contenders for a flag.
