Jay Nash, whats he capable of?

[acursi08]

He will mould into a "McVeigh" type. A good hard player that I think will become consistent as McVeigh is.

Will be a good player playing off half back and through the midfield.

One of my favourite, if not my favourite play of '07 was when he took down two Adelaide players in the one crunching tackle. Wouldn't question his commitment after that.

He's definitely developed (recovered?) after being destroyed by Chapman and Buckley in two of his first games

 

[Azzballz Deluxe]

Yes but there is a difference between skill and decison making/concentration under pressure. It is not that he has to improve his skill. It is that he has to use the skills he has to their maximum more often. I dont think anyone could teach him to be more skilled. Their isnt anything really technically wrong with his kicking and he is easily the most skilled on both sides of the body that we have on our list. It is more of a mental aplication issue than an actual pure skill issue.

Very good point, Ant

I'm impressed

Good kick, good mark...but way too loose. Was cut up playing at half back against Dale Thomas and Jordan Lewis late last season. I'd have him just outside of our best 22 at the moment, but if he can learn to play a bit tighter, there'd be a spot for him.

I think he's a fantastic reader of the play, and has excellent disposal and skills. His ability to break lines by his choice of foot disposal was outstanding in my view.

The issues as I see them are his accountability (absolutely useless as a defender) and whether he'll pick up enough ball in the midfield.

Fair summation. Wonder what he's like on the speedball?

 

[Longy413]

Shane Heard had raw toughness, I don't reckon Nash has that.

 

[albion]

Will be a star - still haven't decided whether he is more of a running defender or a winger however as it stands i'd pencil him right in on a half-back flank.

 

[Blueinblood]

Very good dream team value...had him in mine saince his first game of last year
