SID DRAPER | 2026 SANFL Rd 12 vs PORT POWER A very promising performance from Sid. Might be time for a call-up... 25 disposals 8 clearances 1 goal #weflyasone 🇷🇴🤞🏽🇷🇴

I hope he makes it, but right now he needs a few more games like this.

Him coming good, and perhaps Zac Bailey and we’d be pretty potent

Won’t work in our midfield if he plans on hitting the ball at pace like that at the centre bounce.

Quality, as usual Vards!! Thank you. This has to be a much better watch! 🤣

Indeed, although 7plus is pretty painful. They play 8 ads after every 2-3 goals!

My favourite part was that last play in the video where he bursts onto a ground ball and hands it to Billy… That’s his weapon, and will be super deadly at AFL level.

Love too see it. Building confidence and hopefully he can stay injury free for a while

@Big_Dan82 See the game from Blake Drury?? That’s a few times he’s torn a game apart this season! Amazing he’s not on an afl list!

@Big_Dan82 Yeah he's having an impressive year. Some of his passing was elite

Nicks doesn't refresh the team, he never has unless he has to either by necessity or overwhelming, outstanding form. Successful clubs give young blokes a decent go at it even if it's just for experience in case they're needed later on.

He's getting there VM glad they took their time with him. Named as an emergency for the Eagles game, but I have a feeling They believe he's ready and they Will give him game time.

Sanfl game at Elizabeth tomorrow. If he misses tonight, will be interesting to see if we get him back in time to play. He needs momentum

Ha ha you may not I really hope he plays and does great. He's the package just needs to get his head around it

What r those weird things he was doing in the middle, I think they r called centre clearances? Haven’t seen those from the ones for a while!

Apparently not

@Txsk4 bit of hornet about it

Looks like the type of midfielder the crows are missing

I'm not sure whose spot he would take at the moment It is encouraging to see him showcasing his strengths adding depth to the Crows arsenal The crows are probably close to their go to team at the moment So I'd like to see a few games with the same players together(if possible)

He's ready

Going on Nicksy's selection criteria, that could be R17 2027!🙄

Starting to find some form and confidence, now just needs to string together some more quality games. Think it more likely he gets a recall in rounds 20/21 against Pies or Bombers if it is to happen this year. Nice to see him finding his mojo

Best ive seen him look since he came to the club!

Clearance king in the making. Get him in. Time to shut that guy up that keeps calling him a bust.

Get. Him. In.

Thanks for sharing. Injury and confidence has been his enemy. Perhaps now he is fit and more mature he can start to believe. Some impressive highlights.

If he can do it again for another fortnight I'd be bringing him into the 1s at the business end.
