Nyhuis deserves an upgrade and a shot in the seniors later on in the season. Big, strong, quick , good skills and disposal and could play on mediums and smalls.
I would have him in front of Ryan at the minut.

Nyhuis is more of a lock down type , Ryan is more of rebounding type with different range of kicking of the footy.

Bought *ing time we had some success with our recruits - all 4 look like they're gonna play a big part in our future
I agree our foward line in starting to work well, however, I still believe we need to target Mitch McGovern if he wants to come home.. blokes a 1 eyed freo supporter and is a contested marking beast.. I fear if we don't, and WCE nab him, we'll be saying the exact thing we are saying about Yeo right now, a few years down the track. I honestly rkn we could play him alongside tabs mac and Kersten anyway.. all are super athletic

1 more thing to note with McGovern is that he has that added versatility to rotate down back if need be. Something You'd be less inclined to do with Kersten & McCarthy.

Disagree on that, Nyhuis has good pace and a good kick. Can play either. PS That big mark he took shows the tricks he has.

What he means is that Nyhuis is not a big possession winner (ATM) and doesn't offer a lot of rebound or intercept marking at WAFL level. He potentially has some of the attributes though. Would be great if he could improve that part of his game.
Where is our current team's greatest weakness? Line breaking pace from the back line, a brilliant small forward, more midfield depth ??
Which players should we sign to become a top 4 side? I believe 2019 to 2021 will be the year we can challenge, but we need to add 2 or 3 quality players who can hit the ground running.

I know what he means but I think he offers more than Ryan. Ryan is essentially a skinny HBF rebounder. Nyhuis has the strong build, is taller ,has the pace to play both roles and move onto a big if needed. Ibbo with more grunt. There is room for both of them though.

He's still more a lock down defender though. I suppose he could play a bit different at AFL level. Hughes has made the transition well.

Nyhuis has the ability to play both roles Ryan not so much.
I agree, I think we need to give both a shot. Who would you have come out of the current B22 for Nyhuis and Ryan?I know what he means but I think he offers more than Ryan.

As much as I like my buddy to be upgrade , I think freo currently really need rebounder like Luke Ryan . Who can kick 60m straight to forward rather than going to midfield. Really need to improve percentage

One at a time to play. Ibbo would be the head on the chopping block even though he has been ok although the way Martin got rid of him late in the last giving Martin the opportunity for that lace out pass and that shot on goal was a shocker by Ibbo. The miss saved him from a lynching on here I think.

Ibbo definitely on chopping block , Ethan upgrade from interchange to play ibbo role .One at a time to play.

He was not alone at not sticking tackles on martin. Don't think I saw anyone stick one on him

Hey Guys,
Since Stone said that Balic's injury is of a 'personal' nature I have noticed a few pics of him on instagram in Melbourne with his Dad this week. Do you think he is struggling with a bit of home sickness? Really would be a shame if that is the case as I think he is going to be a gun. Reminds me of Lachie Neale in many ways..
If he does want to return home at years end, any ideas of a fair trade?

Sorry - should have said that I was limiting my response to regular humans.
In all seriousness though, Martin shrugs or palms off or arches his back so successfully that he is hard to catch. Ibbo's effort was poor but that whole passage of play was ordinary. I was at the game so I struggled to pick out the other player that was in a two on one against Martin. His support for Ibbo was ordinary at best. should have supplied a shephard I thought.
Must admit, this does worry me slightly....

If he really homesick a second rd pick plus a player eg second choice ruckmen will be fair.
How long is Balic contracted for?
