Nankervis !!

Sydney-supporter friend who knows their footy is disappointed to loose this guy, FWIW. Rated him.

If it comes off, it will be an example where buddy and tippers big contracts have pushed out more players from Sydney

Be a great result if he could become a finals-psycho-bullock like Mummy.

Sure hope Sydney dont draft a dual brownlow medalist with 46 8-
 
for the price, and considering our ruck stocks, I'm rapt to have him. Really happy with his aggression, seems like a bit of a lumberer though, we'll see.

Hammer will still be first ruck.
Nank will play Vickery role (but with effort and heart)
Don't think Hampy will be, we didn't go out and get a ruckman on a 3 yr contract to play vack up to Hampy.
 
In the short reel I saw from Nankervis, he actually gathered the ball and gave it to Mitchell 4 times. His action really upgraded Mitchell. The hawks don't have a ruckman, how is mitchell going to get his kicks?

Vickery will be tapping them down his throat.
 
Not sure why, but I am more happy about this trade than Prestia.

Time will tell I suppose, and I am only a novice, don't know anything about either of them except their names... ;D :help

Great value get, at only 199cm he is a small ruckman, an upgrade on Hammer for sure
I agree. In the past people on this site have reckoned Maric was too small for a top ruckman at 200cm but it appears we are replacing him for someone smaller.
I know nothing about Nankervis so have to assume he has some mobility around th park so is an upgrade on or ruck stocks. Time will tell

Same here snakey. He's got a big frame but skinnier legs. Bit of an awkward kick, but doesn't matter as rucking's the no. 1 priority.
 
love the reel on rfc.com

He has a touch of the mummification about him.

tackles to hurt.
