Past #15: Atu Bosenavulagi - drafted #77 '18 ND by CFC - traded to NM as part of Stepho/BBB deal - 8 NM games/1 NM goal

Looked really composed as well as bringing the hard stuff when required.

I think he and Hayden might end up fighting for one spot in the 22.

Cheeky nab nomination?

Has Hayden covered.

Hayden is one the biggest butchers in the comp, let alone our side.

I was a Hayden fan last year, but this year he looks a mile off it.

Anyway I really like what Atu brought today and as posted above, seemed to be really composed, even in heavy traffic.

How’s the courage when he went back with the flight in the last and ended up in his back? I think Geelong ended up with a free kick there but he never took his eyes off the footy

He went to bench after his "not-a-mark of the year" contender, and the medico's were checking his ribs and back. He came back on which was a good sign, I hope he pulls up okay today.

Loved his game

Switched on and held composure under pressure

The rapid rise of Atu Bosenavulagi at North Melbourne crashed through yet another ceiling on Sunday.

one word about his debut game........."impressive"

 

[Hatchy1992]

What a debacle from the Pies to palm this guy off to us.

I think he's going to turn into a mainstay in our defence for the long term.

true, but then it would have been hard for collingwood to be handing out contracts to fringe players while they're offloading Treloa, Stephenson and Phillips.

Good recruiting on our part, for sure

My Pies mate was probably more upset about losing Atu than losing Treloar.

Mine are the opposite. Probably influenced my opinion of his game yesterday tbh. There’s been a lot of positivity around Atu’s game on here so I think I’ll have to rewatch the game without bias because I thought he just had a crack but didn’t play well at all.

FMD, that shows two things:

1) Stupid courage.

2) Hayden lacks football smarts.

 

[Reagan Smash]

3 on 1 and Hayden gives away a dumb free

 

[Val Keating]

Not enough talk or something there. Don’t need our own players taking each other out

Fatui Ataata?

Fatui Ataata !!!!!! circa 1984. Mate, you must be as old as me!! Not sure too many would remember him, even Pies fans. Well done.

HAHA...I remember a picture of him on the front of Inside Football back then.....actually saw him play for Coburg at one point. Big Unit. Not much good.

I had a mate that was seriously pissed at losing him. As much as Stephenson.
