Can anyone tell me how moneybags is going? I heard his got real big promise and is defiantly pushing for selection. His a tall midfielder and looks similar too pends a little.

Nuggets needs a bit more time in the ressies, probably needs a bit more bulk to his frame aswell. Will be a good contributor but never a star in the team.
I stand by what I said last week, could be anything! He is 190cm plus, which is a bonus! Just see how he develops this year, he played tall and small last week. Keep in mind, Shannon Cox took one year to break into the senior team and he was a mature recruit.

One game at Willy ressies (where he was listed as BOG)
One game at Willy (where it was generally reported that he did some good things, put himself in, laid a few good tackles and showed he had plenty of dash to get to a contest)
So encouraging enough and it will be interesting to map his progress at Willy throughout the year.
Reported to be very quick for his formidable size and doesn't mind the tough stuff

I've only seen one game by Nuggets and I was pretty impressed. Remembering he's had an injury interrupted pre-season, as well as it being his first AFL pre-season (did train with Dawks for a bit last year though without getting rookied).
As stated, he is named at full back for Willi, which may hint towards the role we want him for. On Saturday, he did play defence, but not key. More third tall in spurts off the bench. But maybe we are hoping to mould him into a Scarlett type full back (not saying he'll be at that level).
What I liked most was his never give up attitude. He'll fight for the ball until told to stop at ground level and he wins heaps of it below his knees.
Also, he takes players on and loves a run. He got found out twice getting caught and disposing of it in a rush, but that was his first ever game at that level, so I think he'll be wiser for the experience.
He has very good awareness of where other players are around him and seemed to choose the best option on most occassions, in order to clear the ball. Pretty good by foot and a good mark.
He has a bit of rawness, but perhaps not in the same league as Toovey. I reckon Goldie has less question marks than Tooves, although both were overlooked in at least one draft.
