    Mega Thread Nick Daicos - Can he be the GTWEB? Part 2

    No. I'm suggesting Nick reads it off the ruck man's hands, reacts really quickly and gets first possession a lot. You're not allowed to play like Luke Ball used to. So smaller players with great hands like Nick, Neale, Butters and Serong often get to the ball quicker than the big aggressive guys...

    Mega Thread Nick Daicos - Can he be the GTWEB? Part 2

    I brought up the topic. You're arguing against the point I brought up and turning it into back flank to midfield, which is about 4000 players. It was elite outside runners into elite clearance players. There's probably been a few who could have been either, but you had to be one or the other...

    Jeez this has triggered. So triggered that you're imagining that Chad Cornes and Tom Stewart were outstanding outside runners who became outstanding clearance mids ... I actually don't think you could have been an outstanding outside runner and big clearance in times gone by. Blokes dived on...

    He's a genuine gun. I've been agreeing with that. He's just not a big first possession at stoppage player. Just as Nick isn't an aerial player, whilst Dawson is bloody good in the air.

    Nearly all blokes who play centre square start off on flanks - half forwad, half back or wing. I'm not talking about blokes who go from a flank to the centre square - that's the vast majority of midfielders. I'm talking about dominant outside runners who suddenly or even gradually become...

    So you don't know how Crows set up and the stats suggest that Dawson doesn't win a big number of clearances - yet you're arguing with someone suggesting he's not a topline inside mid

    My wife has banned my from making stock after putting on a pot of stock, getting pissed and then getting up at 12 the next day to a ruined Le Cruesset pot.

    Cruel. Way too close to the bone NMBB.

    That's the beef pho thing. They cook that stock forever, but barely cooking.

    I'm having a crack at becoming a social influencer too. Videoed myself shaving with a running commentary and then put it on tiktok. Noone has clicked on it yet, but surely it's a matter of time before it goes viral and the millions roll in.

    I think you're underestimating what NWM did as a mid last year - to me it was similar to when Nick moved into the midfield in 2023. Good clearance numbers too. Too small a sample size though. It'll be interesting to watch when he starts copping a defensive focus at stoppage.

    I'm absolutely serious. The top inside mids get 50%+ more clearances a game than Dawson. Dawson is an absolute star, but he's not an inside mid. The bloke impacts in a heap of ways, but winning the ball at stoppage isn't a significant part of his game.

    Star. Gradual build, who as a mid is still not a stoppage gun. He's just not a big first possession clearance winner and at 28 probably never will be. Not a great example. Try again.

    NWM isn't yet. Who are these plenty more examples?

    No I haven't. I haven't seen an outstanding outside runner immediately become a top first possession clearance winner when switched to that role. I'd be curious to hear some examples.
