Toast Jackson Nelson

[ChampRevesby]

Have liked his mongrel from his first game and he is getting more consistent and has some dash. We need to back the young guys in and keep him, Duggan and Sheed in the side unless they are putrid for an extended period. It will take Duggan and Sheed some time to adjust to AFL again but dropping them back to WAFL won't help them develop. Look how some constancy is working for Nelson.

We need more Chris Lewis.

I wish. I just sighed audibly for the good old days where we showed some mongrel...

 

[archiemoses]

Any highlights vids of his game yesterday? Or should I just watch the match highlights as he'll be the only one to feature

 

[2006_Eagles]

Has mongrel and skills to back it up. Easily my favourite Eagle right now.

I actually felt sorry for him on Sunday seeing how much he was giving and everyone else wasn't

 

[getgaff]

Impressive against the Hawks and enjoying a solid run in the AFL side. Hopefully it stays that way.

Been mentioned numerous times already but he does have a bit of mongrel and a hard edge to him. I like the boy

 

[archiemoses]

I messaged the west coast Facebook page asking for a highlights package of Jackson Nelson. They agreed he had a good game and said they'd look into it

 

[salo]

If we has 21 other Nelsons and still lost I would be a pretty happy bloke. All I want is mongrel and hard at it players, thats ******* football.

yes... and no.

I'm guessing I'm going to say what everyone here is thinking.. That nelson will be infinitely better next season when he has the full man bun.

Kudos for playing out the match (and being one of our best ) with a broken wrist , but so disappointed for him /the club

Haha right on ****ing cue. What a load of bullshit.

Does he have the most skill? No
Is he the tallest, fastest, or most agile? No
Is he bigger and stronger? No
Most experience? Games? No

So you tell me how 20 other ****wits (Barrass excluded) can sit with a 21yr old back flanker who has a fractured wrist being our best player?!

Been a big fan of his for a while now. Overdue thread.

Rest of the team who played this weekend: give yourselves an uppercut to cut all previous ups. This scrawny kid, with a broken wrist, played with more grit and heart than the rest of you hacks combined. Bloke can be in the leadership group next year for all I care.

 

[Crimson King]

Out for four weeks and god knows how long before he will get selected for the seniors again. Our match committee can breathe a sigh of relief as now they can keep making the safe selections.

 

[Brave Sir Robin]

How bad is a wrist injury? Apart from the length of I would think it shouldn't derail his season at all. Shouldn't lose any fitness at least.

 

[mattyc75]

Shame watson is injured,would be the ideal replacement

I put it down to the Carbine Chaos curse. Adamson, Petrie and now Nelson.

Interesting - I wonder if his comeback was successful?

 

[QS]

He tried his guts out to lift the team. That image captures a moment perfectly. Love this kid.

Shane watson is injured,would be the ideal replacement

EFA

Seriously though, this is shit news about both him and Cripps

Cripps is possibly the most underrated player in our side. He's a huge loss.

He's up and down,I dont mind him but get one of hbfers to be a defensive forward and we could cover it.we've got heaps of them
