Player Watch #35: Nathan Broad

[JAKLAUGHING]

I thought that last night's game was by far and away his best. Constantly broke up Crow attacks and barely wasted the ball.

Shame...thought Broady was on track to being BOG till his nasty facial...

 

[SumTingWong]

The turn around in this mans game in the last 18 months is astounding!

 

[Westicle]

Just when he was coming on in leaps and mounds it has to go **** up for the great man.

Has proven the knockers wrong this season, watching him rack up possessions whilst making forwards his bunnies.

Swift recovery Broady, stay off the cans and see you back on the park soon.

Nice fulsome praise for Broady!

 

[Grechy]

I don't think we need to rush him back with Houli and Vlastuin ready to come in. I think the Jack Graham injury hurts us a bit though. Hard to replace tackling bulls in the middle like him.

For a second there thought I was in one of the old carry on movies

And i can hear the Benny Hill music in the background as well...

 

[Spluff]

Forgot how good he was in more of a loose role. Hopefully only misses one week.

 

[telsor]

If we were lacking coverage, play him if possible, but with Garth waiting in the wings we can probably afford to be more conservative.

What a bloody shame he got injured , thought his last fortnight was Career best and showing whys he’s a valuable member of the side ,could not have stepped up any more to fill vlas shoes , intercepts , hot contests and running hard to create options , bloody good game , should only miss a couple they’ll put a plate in

 

[NUFC Tiger]

Amazing to think he's only played 20 odd games too. Very composed and plays his role like a 100+ gamer. Should only keep getting better too you'd think with more experience under his belt.

 

[Bojangles17]

One of those player delivering overs for what’ he’s paid

 

[Heisenberg_]

Hopefully he makes a quick recovery and is back to his best in time for finals.

I imagine broady will be back soonest being non weight bearing injury , 3w off maybe good result , happened to richo once , I think he missed like 1 game , boy was he swollen up though

 

[Rezza Tiger]

Broady's doppelganger lol

 

[Grizza]

How good has Broady been this season

 

[Bojangles17]

How good has Broady been this season

Good and getting better

 

[Muddiemoose]

Good and getting better

How good has Broady been this season

I remember when he was recruited and I was like who the f*** is this flog he’s never gonna get a game in the srs

Never been happier to be proven wrong

 

[Drofder]

Going great guns and getting better. Tough as nails. Sacrificial. Knows his role. Trains his guts out and loves the football club. Whilst he made a mistake, those in the know understand that whole tit gate thing was a disgrace regardless and he got himself through it ok and didn't lose his sh*t throughout. Very popular in the club.

Good on the bloke.

 

[THE_GUN]

I have watched broad closely in a few games and thought to myself , s**t i would hate to be the player he plays on

Tall enough to play on big/small (not monsters)
Speed
agility
leap

But the thing you notice the most is just how tough he is, Broad is a real campaigner

 

[Tigers_fan24]

Perfectly suited to be he utility defender role in our backline. Really like how he’s progressed.

 

[Squibbs]

So many blokes that have been on our list and come from absolutely no where - Broad, Lambert, Short, Butler, Castagna etc.

A lot of these guys taken in the rookie draft or 4th, 5th round of the AFL draft, nobodies turned into extremely valuable cogs in the RFC machine. It's awesome

 

[wegetpumped]

I don't think this guy is going to make it as his foot skills and awareness are too elite for our team
From the 3 i rate this guy our best chance.

Ohh I recall this at the time people were rubbishing him eg cant kick so on How things have changed campaigners

 

[Ancient Tiger]

Can play on bigger guys and has the speed to go with smaller guys. Is good overhead. He's not a half bad photographer either!

 

[captain blood 17]

Has Broad re-signed yet?
