Has anything like this ever been seen before in regards to a AFL footballer?
This is legit the leading number 1 story for PerthNow. Nic Naitanui had a costume party, Someone on the radio mentioned that The West Australian has posted 47 articles in the last 60 days about Naitanui including things like him having a baby, his babys first day at the beach, his babys first trip to a winery, his babys first trip in a car, how Naitanui wishes his mum could have met his baby with zero quotes (so a opinion piece on what Naitanui might be thinking)
I could get this obsession if he was say the Michael Jordan of the AFL but the bloke isnt even in Eagles top 5 players at present, wont be a top 10 Eagle of all time, his personality while nice is fairly subdued.
So why the obsession? Is being black and having dreadlocks all that is to it? I feel like someone handpicked the guy to be a poster boy and have continued with it even when it is now no longer justified. The whole practice is weird to me and as a Eagles fan, I find it pretty embarassing to watch.
