Young Aussie - Tick

Full-back but 'versatile' - Tick

Will likely be turfed out in a year for another young and promising Aussie full back  - Tick

Congratulations on being the ONLY person I've seen online being negative about this signing! That's the Nix spirit.

I watched pretty much every Victory game he played - a lot live - and he wasn't very good. I didn't watch as many CCM games, though - did he improve a lot?

I'm very happy we've made a signing, and we've made far worse, but people talking about this signing in the same breath as Burns and Durante is crazy.

The way I measure it is - are any other clubs disappointed they didn't sign him? Not really. Of course, doesn't mean he will bad. Doesn't mean anything. Just means that he still has a lot to prove.

I don't think it's a stretch to be a bit cautious about it considering the amount of young Aussie full-backs we've had.
