Rate a Tiger's year - 47. Ben Nason?

[eliminator]

Capable of kicking goals. A real plus. Tired towards end of season. Good attitude. Hopefully continues to improve next year.

[Stripes]

Is a running machine with lovely footskills but I'm uncertai wether he will still be in our best side in the future. Of course I never thought King would be either so if he can continue to improve, strengthen and find a spot in the side I will be one of the first to congratulate him.

One thing Nason does do well is show that hard work will be rewarded and adds a significant amount of pressure on other players around him to train hard or they will lose their place to players who may not have the same potential upside as they do. This in itself is a huge plus for Nason being about and getting a game for mine 

Good luck Nase and keep fightig to improve!

Gave him a 7
Tired a bit at the end but geez you can't ask for much more from pick 70 odd.
Kicked some goals too which is good.

[nahadaman]

Reminds me of an early Dale Morris, hopefully can become a similar player.

Gave him a 5. The reason being that in terms of rating players for me everyone is held to the same standard so if lids, jack etc get 8's then Ben deserves a 5. Probably wasn't quite as impressed with his season as some others appear to be i don't think getting 15 possies as a somewhat unaccountable wingman is that impressive if your opponent is getting 25. However, did kick some big goals for us provided some run often being the first released from a rebound from the 50 and for his first year it was a very solid perfomance. Don't think he is in our best 22 currently and don't see him becoming a regular in it but definately a good player to have on the list pushing others to perform and i hope his potential is higher than my expectations

3, needs to be a lot more involved

Nason's season rated a 3 lol

as in Dale Morris from the bulldogs?  ???

He will never be a dale morris type, morris is a 190cm super quick hard nosed tank backman. Predator will never have those physical traits

Pretty sure Nason was leading the B&F about 1/3 of the way into the season. Yet he still gets a 3 from you?
Laughable rating for a 1st year player

[sabartooth]

OK upgrade to 3.5. The reason being that in terms of rating players for me everyone is held to the same standard so if lids, jack etc get 8's then Ben deserves a 3. l would rate Dale Thomas 8-9 who plays a similar HFF position. Nason got a few kicks and showed some potential but some of you want to give everyone on our list 9-10 when we keep finishing down the bottom of the ladder. So that's why he gets a 3.5  , needs to be a lot more involved and damaging to other teams.

[Chuck17]

Gave him a five but real happy with his performance this.

Could be a real find if he further develops

leading the B & F after round 7/8. Okay now im convinced you are on the disco biscuits

nason 4
solid from where he came from not great

good selection but needs bulk

[Coach]

The thing that is laughable is the fact that Nason actually was leading our B&F after about 5 rounds. 

Gets a 6 from me... Played a couple of good games but was incredibly bad in the last 5-6 games (which is to be expected I guess). He's 22 next season so I'll personally be expecting improvement after a big pre season.

[julzqld]

Mini-me loves him

[Jacosh]

Well i gave him a 7

6 For how he came along from where he was picked.
I dont hold all players to the same ratings as say lids. They are all different and need to be scored accordingly.
Im sure that if this was a Geelong forum last year we wouldnt be holding ALL players to Ablett's standard.

Ohh almost forgot.  bonus point for the hair.

Was definitely up there, if not leading
Do you forget how crap we were and here was Nason busting is butt all game, so it wasn't exactly surprising to see him poll so highly
