Nathan Brown's party trick was better! . (Just for some perspective)

Think Treloar is better at the moment but it will be an awesome discussion over the next few years
Big win if that turns out to be the case that Aish is better.
Treloar has been our second most valuable player this season and should get better. If Sidey can get back to his best we should have 3 elite mids in 2017 with a possible 4th in Adams.

Club rates Aish ad high as Treloar
Thanks Dekka.
There have actually been suggestions of differences of opinion on Aish within the Club. If you look at the trades, the Club gave up more for Treloar than Aish, but 2 x 2nd rounders for Aish was significant and shows someone (at least) who matters rated the kid.
His recent form gives some hope he may reach the heights predicted when he played in SANFL premierships as a teenager.
Will come with maturity and a sense of belonging, taking more ownership, believing that your output is crucial to the team's success. Once Aish starts to believe he belongs (plus a bit more fitness and size) he'll come to the party. Just hope it's while Pendles is still elite...
It just proves if you have footy smarts you don't need to be quick. The thing that really impresses me is how he uses his body to advantage. He is only lightly built at present, but he takes the hit if needed. Not sure who said he avoids contact if anything he seems to relish it.
Agree with the posters, you can't teach a football brain especially when majority these days are athletes. He is your old fashioned footballer but is also blessed with good skills.
Excellent pick up by the club.

Why bother? Part of the problem with Nick's is that people are too quick to call a player a "spud", or "A-grade" or "finished" or "going to Carlton" etc. Bob isn't alone in that. A bit more reasoned argument and analysis and a lot less "big call" would be a fine thing.
His great asset last night was an ability to pick the ball off the carpet in one fluid movement and take it away from a contested situation. That sounds like the skill of a clearance player to me. He is going to be very, very good.
