He was very influential when the game was there to be won in the first quarter.
Tassie trade bait
Some bizarre takes here.
Young ruckman starting to make his mark, does an ACL, and is back in the seniors after a couple of games in the 2s due to us having nothing else.
He’s fine. He was still a development project before doing his knee, and is just working back. To write him off at this point is just strange. He has some good qualities and if he gets fit, and continues to develop he could be a long term solution. If not, then hopefully Visentini is able to develop into the role. But conceptually both fit our timeline and will hopefully grow with our young midfield

I know he will take time to find his feet, but against VFL level ruckman and then Balta pinch hitting I maybe expected more…….
Is reliable with the ball in hand and pretty neat disposal.
But not sure he is the player I thought he was going to be.

Against no recognized ruckman, that was a poor game

If only we had played a young gun clearance player to capitalise on him dominating the hit outs.

Average to sub-par
Disappointed in his game. he had no aerial presence at all. he is nowhere near the level of Draper.
He offers very little.
This is the Nick Bryan experience.

Coming back from an ACL. Always going to take time to get his confidence and touch. One thing I will say is that his skills by foot are better than the majority of the team. Uses it well.

I thought he was ok, he’s building after his injury.

Thought he was OK - again willing to give him this season and likely next (combo with HVH?) to see what he offers when gets a run.
Connection with mids was really off, hopefully comes with reps.

I find it amusing that people make excuses for Draper this year because he’s coming back from injury, but not many do the same for Bryan.
