Or maybe he's just not as good as Nix fans would like to believe (or hope). Mostly on the pine under Talay in his last half season with the Phoenix.

Lots of opportunities at Plymouth and now Mansfield, without as yet making a strong impression. Same with the All Whites.

He's a home grown Nix product, and very humble/likeable, so we can be a bit blinkered as to how good he is, or should be. He may still 'crack it' at L1 or Championship level, but he's be 24 next June. As others have said he's got an ex striker and decent coach at Mansfield in Nigel Clough.

Waineo can also look towards his 36 yr striker team mate Lee Gregory as an example of never giving up. Gregory was bouncing around the National League (5th tier) and even lower until getting a chance with Millwall at age 25-26. Since then he's fashioned a very decent career between The Championship and League One.

Edit - Gregory has 7 L1 goals this season, in 923 mins for Mansfield
Waine 1 L1 goal in 304 mins.
