Re: Nic Naitanui - Worthy of the hype
At present he's a work in progress, but that progression is moving quite rapidly.
On a big ground like Subi he'd be too athletic for most ruckmen, particularly Hudson & Minson!
Every time I see him he improves a bit more. Not going to be long before he really starts to take games apart, particularly if he can take strong marks overhead.
What he does well is scare the hell out of the opposition, he's like a giant manta ray hovering, you just know there is a shadow lurking. I think they call it referred pressure. He exerts it well.
85, 92, 97, 98, 08, 09, 10... Break the curse!
