After a restricted preseason Nic Nat made his way back into the lineup however his lack of a proper preseason and match fitness was evident as he started off the season quite slow.The fact that West Coast was playing 3 rucks didn`t help much either and Nic was managed during the season with a couple of rests.By seasons end tho he started to recapture some of the form he showed us in 2012 and with a full preseason and Coxy`s retirement he could very well get back to that form in 2015.Is a possible chance to regain forward status

[_wato]

Will average 110+ next year! Will be the premier ruck man with Lycett.

[kilbluff1985]

price will be the main factor for me

[Big Mac]

price will be the main factor for me

[_wato]

Based purely on average he'll be priced at around $490k

[Ricochet]

Would love to start him but might be a few cheaper ruck options next year like Leuey and co.

[Jukes]

If fit, lock him in.

Any injury concerns at all would make me nervous, we've seen how low he can go recently.

Not a good footballer, but SC scoring suits him extremely well and could go 110+ again, maybe even higher.

[RaisyDaisy]

Didnt start him this year because he had an interrupted preseason

If he completes a full preseason, then he is a LOCK.

If not, then I wont start him

[meow meow]

Averaged 107 in the second half of a 'bad' year and is priced at 90.8

Loves a niggle; probably won't play every game

A MAYBE at this stage

[Pkbaldy]

Not my style. Unless super cheap.

[Holz]

He is in my squad unless he gives me reason not to.

Going pretty pricey in the rucks next year which is risky but both him and Goldy could pump out premo midfielder scores.

[elephants]

G-U-N

Lock him un and let the rippa scores roll. Jet.

[Spinking]

If fit he will be among first picked. Will be a reasonable price, and will need to step up without Cox in the frame.

[Capper]

Should start the year about $520k and can only be considered for SC (not a DT player).

Dont see him getting DPP with Cox gone and needs to step up in 2015.

2015 could be his year

[Dayze]

If fit, lock him in.

Any injury concerns at all would make me nervous, we've seen how low he can go recently.

Not a good footballer, but SC scoring suits him extremely well and could go 110+ again, maybe even higher.

Ive heard this not a good footballer stuff before and im seriously confused. I understand CD love him but that is his contested stats.
Explain please Jukes. Is it the same way Gary ablett is a touch overated??
