I think he needed to put on some muscle but he moved well and was pretty tidy, I thought he was a clever pickup and if he develops his physique could be another one to come out of nowhere like nahas and kingy.

I didn't think Nahas developed his physique he developed a greater understanding of the game plan and a much greater work rate to add to his footy smarts.
Sadly for Nason he has a good work ethic but he is not smart enough to regularly get the foty and evade tackles and hence he gets rag dolled.
Good luck to the kid anyway.

Good point bout the game plan but Nahas was exactly the same early on and was constantly bashed up when he went near the ball.  He has developed some good smarts and I think Nason is also capable.  Nahas is always going to be a wirey bloke but he will still get stronger.  Nason could fill out considerably still.  Seen blokes like him fill out late.  He looked quite soft when we got him.  Good development and he should be hard as a coffin nail.

Just checked it out

SarahNason22 is her nic-name and she's Ben's biggest fan but no relation

Wouldn't put much faith in her tweet  ;D

Yeah she may have got it wrong as a number of tweets are saying bye-bye to Nason.

The only thing Benny has tweeted is this in reply to Farmer:

bNason47 ben nason
@mitchF15 hmmmmm Bali has a good ring to it #rigsout #summerglow

According to this Collingwood poster on BF, Nason has been delisted and will be training with West Coast in the hope of being picked up.

Ben Nason delisted (Adelaide Advertiser)

Nason has been delisted....


The Bulldogs are however hopeful of young wingman Ben Nason returning to Elizabeth after he was delisted by Richmond this week.

Nason played 23 games in the past two seasons at Tigerland and Grant is confident he will be at Central District if not re-drafted for next season.
