What an absolute fun this kid is becoming…

He has absolutely gone up a gear and a half since he re-signed, was an absolute beast in the second half and how sweeeeeeet was his goal on the last when it mattered.

Steady as you like and never looked like missing

Love the kid

Collingwood only has one Nick Daicos, but we have both Sinclair and NWM.

Yeah he’s been anxious with his set shots but he was cool as cucumber with that one

Legit since signing on he's exploded. I wonder if he was not in the best mental space, both getting used to being away from home and thinking about whether he's going to request a trade. Now with a clear path for at least the next two years he looks so much more focused and comfortable.

He was a liability with the footy quite a lot in his first year and I was very critical but I'm all in on NWM now

I reckon we get Bergman from Port and he plus half back and NWM plays permanent wing. He will kick more goals and will lace up King for years.

Kid is special.

I think he’s had just as impressive a year as Owens.

Fantastic group of young players assembled in a couple of years without having to completely bottom out!
Was Windhager any good last night?
He had middling type stats but they don’t always tell us the full story.

A few dud kicks in Q1, but there were 44 players in that boat.
Shut down warner when he was towelling us up.
Good fight in and under the contests when needed.

Not a ball magnet (yet) but will be a solid member of the midfield.

His evasion and bullet pass on the boundary in the second quarter gave me Gilbert McAdam flashbacks.

He also does that thing quite effectively where he takes possession, wrong foots with a fake handball, darts to the left and then just applies the after burners to get round his opponent. Did it a few times. Always looks silky.

I always like point out with these observations (noting you weren’t having a dig)… 29 disposals overall trying to thread the eye of the needle… chances are that a bunch of them are going to miss the target. It’s sheer probability at that point

He kept Warner pretty low for his usual 30 possessions and was pretty clean going forward. He laced up king in one passage of play.

Definitely the most complete game Nas’s played..what I liked was his greater intensity at the contest.
He, Owens, Phillipou and Windhager are certainly exciting prospects!!

Absolute class has poise and balance you cannot teach.
Moves beautifully as well he is an upcoming star.
2021 draft best draft we have had in 20 years.
Owens NWM and Windhager!!

You can say that again!

+1 re. Nas

A few Sandringham prospects still yet to debut for us. I'm looking forward to seeing our young crew grow and build in the next few years (similar to the youngsters in 2004/5 who stuck together and played off in Grand Finals)

Speaking of the 'Prospect'...Rowan was exceptional and one of our best on ground against the Swans
