Nankervis !!

I know that a lot of positives get lost in the manner we lost, but I love this bloke.

Beaten for most of the day and then lifted magnificently in the last.

He won a quarter-high five hitouts-to-advantage as well as two clearances and launched a quarter-high four scores.

Also up till the Neale clearance and Mundy goal, tigers had 11 more clearances in the quarter and scored 28 points from those clearances.

We are all gob smacked and things could and should have been done differently but sometimes $hit happens.

I thought Martin Riewoldt and Rioli were also terrific in the last and Caddy lifted as well.

Not always on same page as him but Lamby has nailed it here

Caddy had 3 touches in the last. The soft free he converted (lovely kick) the hacked kick to jack and??

He does have a knack of a goal at the right time (has he kicked the last goal twice now) that makes supporters remember him perhaps more than he deserves.

Should have had 3 goals but for a shonky disallowed goal, so did ok, certainly a lot better than many others on the night.

Caddy s kick to Jack was due to his strength to stay up in the tackle and get boot to ball. He can't run but at least he used his streghth to advantage us. And blokes who keep bobbing up for last quarter goals hold their spots a lot longer than those who go missing.

No, should have been 2, he stole Jacks by playing on in the goal square and kicking it. Should have been Jacks goal.

Nank was definitely the driver of our comeback.

just re-watched the last.

Nank was the crank. Caddy and Kmac the conrods. Jack, Dusty and Drioli the pistons.

Sheds was the mag wheels.

Who was the brake?

it pains me to say it, but probably Chimp.

Him not being in the guts at the last bounce (where was he?) and directing the wingers to the back of the square was culpable.

I thought he lifted after a poor 1st quarter.

on those clearance stats, looks like the match committee got the selection of our mids right. we won the clearances despite Sandis ruck work.
