Past #26: Daniel Nielson - won't be offered a new contract - thanks for your efforts Dan

[The Nostradamus]

The delisting will bite you on the arse!

lol not 1 afl club wanted to even waste a rookie list spot on him

 

[TheLoungeLizard]

It's probably the greatest draft night shock in draft history

 

[roos_fanatic08]

Under Chocco Williams as well. Assembling a strong team.

They have picked up some exceptional young AFL listed experienced talent.

Collins & Corbett will be huge loses but they are doing wel so far

 

[Dan]

Anyone know how he's going at Werribee?

 

[andana]

Doesn't seem to be doing much

[Flawed Genius]

Hasn't lost any of his courage

Almost killed himself in a first quarter contest at Werribee today

A 'dour' defender like Neilson probably shouldn't be expected to smash the stats sheet. He looks to have been named in the bests for Werribee a few times.. maybe not as dominant as he was alongside Ben McKay for North's VFL team last year.

But upon looking at Werribee's game stats this year, it looks as if fellow ex-North player Oscar Junker isn't even cracking into the VFL firsts.. bummer for him, and worse recruiting for us

You always knew what you’d get with Neilson, ultimately though he was just another Luke Delaney. You need to be more than a pure stopped in the AFL these days.

Junker could’ve have been okay had he not broken his leg early in his first pre-season. Only training one day a week with Werribee and is enjoying playing local footy.

Wonder if Nielson would be on the list if Shaw was coach and the change came last year

 

[TheLoungeLizard]

Godson would have been tearing it up under Shaw

 

[Only Forwards]

Shaws coached 4 games.

All with Tarrant and Scooter fit.

I'm doubtful Nielson would have been anywhere near the ones.

 

[kangaspurs]

Personally, I never saw the same ability or potential as many others in Nielson. Didn't surprise me at all to see him cut. He just wasn't good enough with the ball, and wasn't a good enough stopper to make up for those limitations. In fact, I remember having a couple of arguments with people on here when I said that Durdin was a much better player and prospect. And I don't think much would have changed under Shaw. Actually, I'm delighted that he seems to be a fan of Durds and has given him a bigger opportunity.

In saying that, I'm sure Nielson will carve out a very good career at the level below, which is absolutely nothing to be disappointed with.

fairly certain neilson stopped gray from port a few years back pretty well....showed some great agility for a bigger guy.

Was just about the only highlight that day for us sadly.

 

[Themanbun]

Had a huge day out for Werribee Districts with 28 disposals, 16 marks and 13 goals.

The EVW pick was no better.

Went to the Werribee Districts v Deer Park final on the weekend. Neilson is genuinely unrecognisable these days. I had no idea it was him until I got home and looked up the lists. Plays at FF and kicked 2 from very few possessions.

The 13 goals was against my mate's team a month or so back and they were hugely depleted.

was in the best for Deer Park and played a super game. He copped a few big hits but doesn't lose his footing. Tough footy in that league.

Hooker might want to venture into that comp and try to ruffle his hair again…

 

[Harvs29]

Returning to the Vermont Eagles in 2023.

 

[hotchilli]

Kicked 3 in a losing grand final for Vermont at the weekend.

EVW's body wasn't up to it. Still think he would have made it. Smart defender with good skills.

This pick still annoys me to this day

We picked durdin then reached for this spud instead of getting another position

Nah that's bullshit. Blowing up a knee has never ruined a player!

 

[Arthur Cloke]

Watched his highlights tape and he really knows how to find the ball and take a grab.

Very nice pick up !!!!!

Agree
