Unfortunately, because of a lazy, inept Geelong defense who coasted thinking they were already in a prelim final, it elevated one N.Davis to cult status for his 15 minutes of fame (actually 14-1/2 minutes according to dodgy AFL time clock). As we know, the rest is now history.
However, being a strong mark, great thumping kick and a good crumber doesn't neccessary justify labelling him a brilliant footballer. Brilliant footballers don't go missing for weeks on end like he does, then hit form with cameo quarterly appearances!
Should he arse his team to back-to-back flags then i'll gladly retract this statement.

I haven't read any hand wringing in the above posts, i think we've well and truly gotten over the guy. Personally I posted the article because i thought it was an interesting insight into an ex-magpie and "the brain of a footballer". If you think it's a waste of time then maybe it's best not to read such posts. _________________ McRae for Governor-General! |

Maybe, maybe not - but you have to admit - he is a talented footballer. |

As much as i hate Nick Davis...and hope he burns....ultimately his decision to leave Collingwood will put him in the record books as a premiership player.
In 50 years, thats how he'll be remembered...not for the average player he has been for all his other years at Sydne _________________ There's more to life than footy.........just not much more. |

Premiership player yes...but he will still be remembered as an average player.
Can you tell me all the average players who've won premierships? I can't. You know why? Because they're average. No difference between Nick Davis and some random who played in a premiership side in the 1900s. |

I reckon the Gold Coast would be the only team interested in him. |
