Competitions 2017 Predictions

[Godfather32]

In particular looking forward to seeing
- Mitchell's influence
- The continued development of McGovern and Barrass
- Early schedule bit light. Early tests will be interesting against improved St Kilda, Hawthorn in transition, Sydney and those purple bastards who improved over trade period but will undoubtedly counted the chickens and be thinking they're a top 8 side again, probably a smokey top 4.
- Potential top 4 finish
- Donny from Spearwood's call into 6PR after we win the flag?

Question marks for me:
- Ruck stocks
- Hope not, but will this be the year Josh Kennedy starts to show signs of age?
- Midfield, short-term looks ok. A ton of questions surrounding the mid-term future of our current midfield makeup.
- Not a question as such, but after 2015 GF and last year's W1 finals debacle, would like to see some heart in this year's finals campaign.
- Will NN play again? Based on his Instagram account, only rehab he looks to be doing is prepping his triceps for festival season and looks like he just turned 42.

I'll admit I've never frothed over NN as much as most of us. As good as he is, don't think he's come close to reaching his potential. Seeing him out and about, compared to seeing that big purple bastard Sandi come into the gym on an off day to sneak in an extra leg workout, just don't think his heart is in it. Now I can't help but think about when he will come back and at what percent health. Wouldn't be ideal if he returns and is Majak, without the athleticism.

How do you know how much work he's been putting in? You don't have a clue what he does other than one day he went fishing on his holidays.

Bullshit.

Absolute bullshit.

Sandi didn't snap his knee in half
Footballers do have lives outside the game, bit unreasonable to judge a bloke by a holiday snap.
He's the best tap ruck in the game, chases down mids, has won us many games off his own brilliance and you say he's no where near his potential? Do you expect him to fly? Oh wait he does that too, mark of the year contender every year.

Your kidding yourself if you don't think NN is important for us. More so than Sandi is for freo. Our whole team plays better with him out on the pitch

Never said he's not important. If he was coming into this season healthy I'd love our chances for the 8.

Most would agree that he's going to return in 2018 past his peak physically and athletically, so let's hope he can finally develop a football brain or the game might pass him by very quickly.
