NicNat vs Watts

[kerrazy]

Who do you think will be the more complete player after seeing their debuts?​

 

[whelan=legend]

After one game? You gotta be joking.

Watts didn't have the best debut but still managed 8 disposals at 88% efficiency in what was shocking conditions for a skinny 18 year old KPF.

Not to mention Naitanui is almost a full year older then Watts. Just wait to see how he goes next Friday night vs Essendon at Etihad.

im sorry whelan but

nic>watts

 

[whelan=legend]

im sorry whelan but

nic>watts

I'm sorry but when you judge people on their debuts, Dean Polo > Gary Ablett Snr

 

[kerrazy]

nic>watts

Agreed.

 

[numbat06]

and saying how good watts was

idiot

And i will be bumping this thread many times in the future. Hi everyone in the future reading this

 

[TelkoTheGreat]

i don't know. both have only played one game????

Nick will be an elite ruckman, Watts will hopefully be a good centre half forward who kicks bags of goals..

 

[Power King]

Who is/was the more complete player?

Wayne Carey or Adam Goodes?

Jack Watts is hyped up to become a gun at carey's position.

By many, nicknat a gun for say an Adam Goodes type position.

Carey is one of the best in history, but goodes is the more complete player.

My point is, the player that is more complete position-wise isn't necessarily gonna be the better player.

Why can't both teams be happy instead of measuring penis

 

[Ripper]

Where is the Vickery option?

A more relevant comparison as He probably edged Nic nat tonight.

 

[tesseract]

NicNat edged Vickery more like it.

As for Twatts vs NicNat, both will be outstanding players with outstanding careers. Best wishes to both.

 

[Spluff]

Watts. NicNat may be fast, may be able to clear other ruckman in a single bound, but he's missing the most important ability of all - footballing ability.

 

[Blueboiiz]

Watts is like 10 months younger than Nat but what Nicnat offered today is exciting.

 

[Spitz]

I'm sorry but when you judge people on their debuts, Dean Polo > Gary Ablett Snr

haha denial

 

[Trav 20]

Who do you think will be the more complete player after seeing their debuts?​

a) you're 9 years old
b) you're a window licker
c) you're a bed wetter
d) you're a troll


I choose b)

Who is/was the more complete player?

Wayne Carey or Adam Goodes?

Carey is one of the best in history, but goodes is the more complete player.

Sorry? How did you arrive at this nonsense?

 

[cannons]

To begin with, the question is flawed and utterly ridiculous, as it asks to make an assessment of a player's future completeness based on their debuts. So much can happen over the space of a 10 year career and as a result, the question is futile.

I was impressed with NicNat last night, he showed quite a bit, and I thought he was better than Vickery. His lack of general football knowledge is somewhat worrying, but spending the next 10 years in the big league should go a long way to alleviating that issue.

Watts has also been impressive since his arrival at Melbourne. His composure, speed and agility are quite remarkable, so he has a lot of talent to work with.

In both cases, they should be very good for their clubs. To make a comparison at this moment, though, is rather pointless.

 

[Swampfox]

Silly comparison after one game in totally different weather conditions

Dont worry Demon supporters

They havent seen Jurrah yet

 

[whelan=legend]

It's funny how he asks 'who will be the most complete player' when all three of Naitanuis kicks were ineffective. If you can't kick, then good luck to you.

Watts was playing in horrid conditions whilst Nat was playing indoors and they still had the same amount of effective posessions. Oh, not to mention they were playing Richmond. This thread will be a fun one to bump in the future, let me tell you that.

 

[Australia]

While Naitanui is now easily one of my fav players.......

THIS IS THE WORST THREAD EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

1. You should never judge a career on a debut game

2. They are different players

3. Watts is way younger than Naitanui

4. Naitanui has played WAFL seniors for a full season against men while Watts has played 5 games of footy against men (AFL included)

5. Naitanui got 11 possesions (64% efficeincy - in the dry) and 7 hitouts (none to advantage)

6. Watts got 8 possesions (88% effieciency - in the wet)

7. They are both going to be absolute stars!!! All this Watts bagging has proven who on here knows absolutely NOTHING about footy

8. Really.... they both had pretty unimpressive debuts if you think about, but so does every big man

9. Naitanui was playing against the 15th placed Tigers at Etihad Stadium in the dry

10. Watts was playing against a potential top 6 side in Collingwood at the MCG in the pouring rain

These two young guys didn't do much, there is no clear winner...
This thread is pathetic, the Watts bashing is pathetic, the expectation people have on Watts in his first season is pathetic, the way people are acting about Naitanui's debut is pathetic.

Surely.... with all the facts etc ive put up above.... we can safely say thread over?

You said don't judge them on their first games, why are you doing that?

 

[mattys123]

On what I've seen;

Nick = Buddy Franklin like, basically a freakish player that will rip games apart

Jack = Roughead like, strong marking forward, maybe a little more agile then Roughead but with growth will become a permanent forward.

I'd pick NicNat at the moment just for the excitement factor.

 

[jgb99]

Jack = Roughead like, strong marking forward, maybe a little more agile then Roughead but with growth will become a permanent forward.

Don't think Watts will be like Roughead ... his bodywork will never be a strength, but he should be able to burn off, out run, out manouvre and jump all over just about any key defender in time.

Naitanuis kicking has always been poor though, that's not just from his first game.

Nick = Buddy Franklin like, basically a freakish player that will rip games apart

Jack = Roughead like, strong marking forward, maybe a little more agile then Roughead but with growth will become a permanent forward.

Watts couldn't be further from Roughead. Watts had the second fastest 20 metre sprint time last year at draft camp and the second fastest agility time. He is far more athletic then a Roughead type.

Watts is alot more comparable to Riewoldt IMO.

i wouldnt go taking this poll so literal mate, hes just trying to cash in on a quality first game by nicnat compared to a first up average one by watts, thats all hes trying to do, stirr a few supporters up, not make a logical realistic comparison between the two.

firsts games say nothing, first 10-15 games start to tell a tale

and in all fairness for watts, he did play under wet conditions at the MCG in a side which was belted by 10 goals, nicnat played under perfect conditions at the dome against a much less tallented opposition, for two KP players to make their debuts, one in the wet miserable weather and the other at the dome, is quite unfair to compare.
