Hopefully he can have a pretty good season with werribee, and if he does play anygood maybe play him in the doggies seniors in the later rounds. But i dont think he will make the seniors this year, There are a lot of players ahead of nick at the moment.

Nick has a few probs....hes really tall and far too skinny and he is really susceptable (if thats how you spell it) to injuries.

If he can get off to a good start in the Werribee Seniors and can hold that form he could possibly pop up as 3rd ruckman or a tall forward for periods...he needs to get a good start at Werribee though.

He knows what he has to do, now the coaches have to let him go out there and do it!

Without accually seeing him at training for myself, he was apparently supposed to be travelling very well. I personally don't think he has what it takes, seems to be very awkward and hasn't really forced the issue of selection either.

I would expect Skipper and a few of the bigger fellas that were picked up this year to go ahead of him.

i think nick bruton will be ok if over comes all his injuries and gets more game time for werribee seniors he will grow in conferdence and will be a good play for us cause he has height and as mels says he will give us option too have 3rd ruckman and another tall forward in the forward line if takes his grabs i hope improves cause will be a great player if he doe.
