Welcome to the Tigers Nathan Broad

Very good 3rd term from Broady there that'll upset the haters.

Some very important contested wins and no turnovers actually going at 76%.

Actually having a good game thus far apart from 2 poor kicks.
 
Great comeback in that 3rd quarter.
Earned a fair bit of respect there.
Very impressed to see him take 2 correct shorter options from dangerous turnover spots near CHF and hit them.

Well done. Now finish it off.
 
Broad had two shocking turnovers in the first half, one costing us a goal on the siren when he should have pumped the ball deep into our forward line. Other than that, he was very good. And he got the goal back with the pass to Floss.
 
Wasn't alone turn over wise especially in that nervous 1st half. Also thought he did well. Was in the right place at the right time to take some very handy marks. Good footy instinct. Happy with this bloke.
 
Two turnovers aside he played a good game 15 - 16 odd touches at 80% efficiency and won some important contests.

Again did his job and has done it every week since he's been in the side.
 
The turnovers stand out because he's got an awkward kicking action but he does a lot of good too. Dusty can burn it too but is prettier looking when he does it.
Broad stays in. The backline is functioning extremely well as a unit and he's now an integral part of it.
 
I'm a fan these days. His mistakes can be spectacular so he gets plenty of flak for them.

I like five particular things about him. He is a brilliant athlete - great closing speed and air. He's suicidal. He wins the ball rather than neutralising, even when out of position. He's there all the time. (Good numbers.) He's aggressive.

He done pretty good in his tenth game.
 
Releases vlastuin having this bloke cover the opposition medium Fwds. Yeah horrible turnover. But geez he has played a handful of games. Still a baby. Unfashionable but getting the job done back there.
 
Still settling into his role. Some mistakes in a high pressure environment, but reasonably good overall.
Developing some self belief and confidence, 10 games into his career.
 
Considering it was his first final, he played a great game. His intercept marking kept the ball in our forward 50 all night.
Good kid
 
Showed some real kahunas to win some crucial contests in the 2nd half. Could have gone into his shell but didn't. You get so used to failure in big games that you almost expect it. Kudos to Mr Broad.
 
The VFL coaches' assessment video when he came into the Firsts was spot on. Great intercept mark, backs himself like Rance to get to the contest, fearless, quick and runs hard with the ball.

He's done good the kid.
