Opinion Nick Dal Santo?

[Sco80]

I'd rather go for Jaeger O Meara. Just formally announced on Sun's website - http://www.goldcoastfc.com.au/news/2016-08-25/club-statement

Hell no. His body is a poo poo. We don't need another freeman

 

[Sco80]

It's better than having someone like Maynard do it, try to play on and slip on his arse... kick outs should be taken more seriously... it is the beginning of 15-20 forward thrusts per game... the difference between a poor kick out and a good kick out is enormous....

Del santo gas list his pace like others have mentioned. Harvey has not

No because injuries but god that is a snarky club statement. If I was Jaeger I'd call their bluff and nominate for the draft with accompanying press release sighting mismanagement, unrealized potential (as a club) and poor attitudes (as per club statement) toward player welfare.

Something along the lines of "Waah waaah waah"

I nearly spit out my beer when I saw this thread. Spare me please.

 

[100volt1]

We just love picking up spud players that have already been delisted from two Clubs, so why not?

 

[30yearpie]

Hey boys, Just wandering if Nick would be worth it for a year or two? Maybe run him in half back and bits in the middle? Cool head, great player. IF he was up for it i reckon he could go another year. Check out these stats over 2016..

I am not saying we go and get him, I'm asking you folks on your thought of acquiring him? and maybe even if you think he will be resigned?

Here's one out of left field..........offer boomer a 1 yr contract for $200k and play him as a crumber down forward. He would kick an average two goals per game.....still a clever player and could teach a few of our young guys where to lead etc. If elliot and fasolo come good, then he can play in the 2s...why not? still in the best 6 players at north

 

[left at home]

no disrespect to knightmare, no! much rather play aish more up side for years to come

 

[76woodenspooners]

Buckley did say that he wanted Swanny to play on next year so he could kick goals in the forward line.

Sadly that's not an option. But Boomer is. Not trying to compare Swanny with Boomer (what's the point) but Boomer did kick 34 goals this season which is a lot more than anybody in our team kicked.

Our forward line has been bereft of leadership. Travis Cloke was our forward line leadership rep this year - says it all really.

An ex club captain who knows how to kick goals is surely what our inexperienced forward line needs. Moore, Cox, Crocker, DeGoey, Philips, Wills, plus a couple 2016 draftees would no doubt benefit from his presence in the forward line.

Plus the bloke clearly knows how to look after himself. Might give our players some tips about how to be able to play over the age of 30.

Yeah pretty great idea too, I agree. I think though even Dal Santo would offer experience which would be nice sometimes.

Hmm is that what we really want....
