Robin Nahas [merged]

[Muscles]

Nahas got brushed aside too easily, too many times.  He can chase, tackle, harass and run around the outside, but he won't win too many one-on-one contests and he isn't any good in traffic.

He is not an inside midfielder and never will be but as a wing man running into space he was terrific.

I respect your view, Stripes, and I agree that he is not an inside mid, but he is still too small and gets brushed aside too easily in any sort of traffic.  We need an upgrade on him and we need it fast.  He lost out in too many contests last night and cost us around stoppages, regardless of where he was supposed to be playing.

I agree regarding his size around stoppages but he showed he was a valuable commodity for our side last Night when we desperately needed players with pace, endurance and elusive capabilities. Perhaps you are right we do need a player with greater size and strength who can fufill this role as well but at the moment I'm happy to keep his around on a wing or forward pocket until that young player come along.

Fair enough point, Stripes.  I thought, on balance, and I wasn't at the game, he cost us as much as he contributed, by being unable to do his share of blocking the stampede of the Carlton midfielders.

Nahas was fantatic last night.

All those who continued to heap poo on him (in an utterly boring and repetitive manner) before the season had even begun, need to grow a backbone and acknowledge his good work. Instead of constantly seeking out mistakes from our fringe players.

great work Nahsty. Keep it up!

Well said!

Nahas seems to have been given the role to run and carry at every opportunity. It's a high risk/high return role and during the pre season games he was not that effective. He has though got better each outing and the other night he was very good.

Playing this type of role he will at times get caught and look bad or selfish but it is one of the most effective ways of breaking up defensive zones.

I prefer our young side running and trying to take the game on. Its better than us chipping it around the backline until we cough it up.

[Judge Roughneck]

26 touches is a
bloody good effort. On top of all the 1%ers.

Might be the birth of robin tripod nahas.

Best game for a while, made a couple of clangers but went hard all day.

[Oiafi]

Would be a soooo much better player if he fumbled less. Doesn't go to ground as often as he did and that's why he's improved. Needs a little more composure and cleaner possession and he'll be a real weapon. I think he can learn and improve. Looks better around the midfield. He is not the small forward we are looking for.

[Penelope]

he's improving, is the little big man.

From the diabolical port game last year he has come a long way and may yet be a serviceable player.

[Stripes]

Thought he was fantastic last night. Kept running all night, provided run and was clean by foot. Was a major reason we won last night.

Nason is the new Nahas, plays like he's doing the 100m backstroke

Full credit to Nahas was told he needed to improve or will be gone by years end.

Must be his new mrs he has aquired, which may i add is an absolute piece.

Nason well how many times can he get thrown to the ground before it gets embarrassing. Too skinny for my liking. I put him in the Edwards category, although his left foot is pretty descent.

[bojangles17]

nahas has clearly been told for him to have any impact at the level he needs to attack the pill at full pelt and then carry it at full pelt. to that end he is doing very well, to critisise 1 or two errors as a result is a bit unreasonable. at the rate he ahs worked for the most part of this year he has made a contribution, NO DOUBT

[Jackstar is back again]

Credit where is due, he was very good last night

Well we all know what she's in the relationship for
