Guys,
Thought I would ask this, seeing as I live in Canberra and dont get to see what is always going on ..
Nic Dal Santo was good tonight. Got a lot of easy possies and used them well.
BUT
Something that just struck me tonight everytime I watched him, and I was wondering if others had noticed it as well, watching him live and being able to keep an eye on him more closely.
He never seems to pick up a man defensively. If he does, he goes about it half arsed, lies off his opponent, doesnt really make them accountable .I dont see him in the mix, making tackles, smothers etc. I dont see him working hard enough in close like Baker, Hayes and Ball do. A couple of times tonight I saw hm just slide of his man across the mid field and slow down to a jog .
Is it just me that see's this.
I think we all have high hopes for him, he is just stuck behind the superstars of the competition. It hurts me to say though, but he is working hard enough at BOTH SIDES of game to make him an elite player.
