Re: Ya gotta love Cuz
Hard to believe he is actually underrated in the AFL
To think he is compared to Michael Long is laughable, he could do it all!!!!

Re: Ya gotta love Cuz
I think he is the nearest thing to the complete footballer.
Apart from Plugger he is the player that has given me the most pleasure over more than 50 years.
- excellent ground skills
- elite kick
- superb tackler
- afterburner speed
- endurance
- spectacular leap
- magnificent mark
- played tall
- great evasive ability
- courageous
- fair
- and a hell of a nice guy
I remember after he got that long term suspension for kneeing Dermott (who was trying to choke him) - at the B&F that year at Moorabbin he apologised for losing his cool and went round every table and shook everyones hand.
On another occasion we were billeting a 16 year old aboriginal boy from the Tiwi islands who was down for a schoolboy carnival at Glenferrie. I asked Nicky if he had a minute to say high to him after training but he generously chatted to him for ages and took him into the change rooms to meet the other players.
About the only things Nicky couldn't do was ruck, win a one on one wrestle with a monster defender, and manage his money.

The rest of Australia can wander mask-free, socialise, eat out, no curfews, no zoning, no police rings of steel, no illogical inconsistent rules.

Re: Ya gotta love Cuz
Oh my...this is glorious.
Should be in the VCE curriculum.
Played in hospitals..
Thank you.
And Enrico, nice comments...what a champ..can you think of one player, and granted the era, had something to do with it, for we were crap, that invokes such a rush of blood.
You're quite brilliant Shane, yeah..terrific!
