Past #16: Aiden Bonar - drafted by GWS #11 '17 ND - traded to NM end '19 - 25 NM games - thx Bon

[DuckYeah]

Can we play LMAC in the midfield once he’s back? With Bonar doing such a great job in his absence..

Lmac can have JZ’s spot. Bonar looks good there.. I cant see how he is moved from there

 

[Usayed Givashe]

Loving his turnaround.

Played incredibly well.

Alongside Powell, the biggest positive about the season so far.

Go get ‘em Apocalypto/Justin Olam!

[Uncle_Leo]

Very good again. Found his spot.

 

[Friday Night Lights]

Excellent game. With his attributes he’s probably only scratching the surface of what he can be. The versatility to play on bigger bodies or someone as small and agile as Rankine is going to be so valuable.

His kicking is beautiful too. He and Young need to be our chief users out of defence.

 

[TennisPlayerAndy]

Would like to see him link up through the midfield after his initial possession.

Great kick of the footy.

 

[Heaps of fun]

A pleasant surprise early in the season. There will be a few more of them.

 

[susurrar]

huge potential as a defender. kicks the ball a lot better with some time and space.

Josh Gibson anyone?

 

[Caracas]

Watching the replay, it was Bonar’s most impressive game - at least, early. That’s the very best we can hope for right now. Big tick...

[ChoppyGun]

Very impressive game.

Such a great athlete and build.

Onwards and upwards hopefully and can settle into a position.

 

[TennisPlayerAndy]

A pleasant surprise out of the shitshow that has been the first two weeks.

 

[Long Live the King]

Like many others we tend to forget the kid has only played a dozen odd games.

 

[Uber Roo]

Well done Aiden

So happy for the kid, he’s showing self belief and he belongs
For those who remember my Peter from North Clyde story( the drunk , angry bloke I drove to the parlours) , who coached him in the juniors and drew comparisons to Cripps, it’s starting to come together.

Keep going son !

Stingrays or Seaford? My brother in law coached him at Seaford.. funnily enough named Peter

 

[DarkPhoenix]

Loved his game.

Hugely composed when most of those around him were running around like chickens with their heads cut off.

 

[The acurate one]

We're not dropping the "s" just yet but good signs.

Josh Gibson anyone?

Was going to say exactly this.

I know he's a vile turd, but the closing speed and decisive spoil is very similar.

Drives a Porsche Panorama if you had any doubt.

 

[Friday Night Lights]

Stay away from the bathtub, Aiden.

 

[shinboner magic]

Has the makings of becoming an AA defender. The pace, size, skills and aggression.
Will bookmark this but he has all the attributes.
Could become a forwards nightmare.

Has a strong body and needs to use it more often.
If he’s flying at an opponent- no one is stopping him.
Think with him and Jack down back, we only need two kpd.
Otherwise we are to slow

Virtually the same in height and weight too.

 

[Snake_Baker]

Stay away from the bathtub, Aiden.

He doesn't strike me as the type.
