Robin Nahas

I am surprised by his selection.

He is replacing a small forward, but has been playing half back for Coburg for a number of weeks now.

The more obvious replacement is McDono who has been playing mid/forward and his form has been as good, if not better than Nakas.

Nakas is playing for his career, at Richmond, or most likely elsewhere, and this often leads to selfish, non team orientated play. This has been my major criticism of his game at Coburg. Gets a lot of cheap disposals running around the back but then simply turns it over or goes backwards way too often for an AFL player. Looks good on the disposal count, but does not help the team.

Will be interested to see his level of team orientated play today.
 
Nothing to lose giving McDonough a run after that effort. As asian said, tried hard, skills gone backwards. Kicking woeful.
 
Shocking game - zero impact. What he had around 9 disposals and gave away a couple of frees. No more please - give one of the young guys a run if Kingy or Edwards are not up to it next week.

... and a couple of turnovers that Brisbane ran straight into their forward fifty. Surely we have someone better than this in the two's.
 
Never thought I'd see him in a Tigers jumper again after the Dreamtime game this year.........I was right to think that.
 
He was embarrassing today. I thought he would be solid but boy I was wrong. Should be delisted now.

In hindsight his selection over a kid like McDonut is a bit baffling.
