Nate Wright - what went wrong?

[saintspremiers]

Was a superstar got injured recovered but then was crap.

Or didn't he fully recover?

Did he go mentally softer at the ball?

Will we see his hardness and gut running again in 2014???

[saint6709]

He is about 19 years old

Or was this post just a baited hook ??

I think I'll go with question 'B' please Eddie.

[bergholt]

Baiting or stupidity, make up your own mind.

[SaintPav]

Didn't play after he got injured so he couldn't have been crap.

[plugger66]

Whhat the hell isthis thread about?

[Spinner]

?

[chook23]

He certainly was or is no superstar.....................saintspremiers

showed promise...good pace /had a real dip

injured......form/confidence appeared to drop a bit

is only 19 so form will be up and down

showed promise but requires time/experience/hard work just to cement a spot

worry about your superstar claim in the future

talk about unreal or unfair expectation on your behalf at this stage

[joffaboy]

how can you mentall go softer at the ball?

You can only physically go softer at the ball surely.

Another "look at me thread"

[dragit]

Mentally soft thread.

Ok sorry that's what I meant and no it's a legit thread he was fantastic pre injury but never came back into the 1s only the 2s.

Go look at his Saints games to see what I mean.

Surely this post was a wind up.

He busted his jaw then did his ankle didn't he ?

He didn't go to Colorado due to surgery.

Didn't he play several games for Sandy at the end of season though?

So whats your point. Didnt Dal play at Scorps in his first year. Wasnt Milne a supplementry player at Essendon. Wright gets injured and comes back in the reserves. Seems very normal to me.

Maybe I underestimated his ability to recover or the extent of his injuries but his form for Sandy was way below that to his early season form.

Anyway if he's as good as this time last year it will be massive.

[PADDLEPOP1001]

Hurt his back ,it is still impeding him over pre season ,having said that evidently he is a ball ofuscle so back can"t be to bad if he"s been hammering weights!

[defacto]

i thought he did very well for how green he is. broken jaw didnt help then the other niggling injuries

[SENsei]

Hopefully he will come good and be wright this season.

You ever had a broken jaw, then an ankle and back injury, all in the one season, then put your head over the ball?

No me neither, so how could you or I possibly know how to go about it?

Players aren't machine straight off the production line. They just dont come back and play exactly the same every single match, especially after physical injury.

I could start a thread, Sam Gilbert, what went right, because after his extended lay off the last four games of the season by him were amongst the best he has played for the club.

Facts are, players get injured, lose condition while injured, then maybe lose form or are playing with a bit of a restriction when they come back.

[busso mick]

Hopefully he will come good and be wright this season.

Two wrongs don't make a right, but two Wrights made an airplane.

Young Nate will be a ripper for us, he could easily get a Rising Star nomination if his injuries are under control.

[gringo]

We were about 3 meters away from Nate when he got flipped over against the Bulldogs, we thought he would be going home in a wheel chair- his spine went on the most unnatural angle I have witnessed.

[cwrcyn]

He's going to be a really solid player for us. Great speed and attack at the ball.

[lloyd21]

Probably suggest supporters go to training if want to see him flying

Good to see, look forward to seeing his progress on Saturday
