Nankervis !!

Just a big competitor that busts his arse.

Fantastic season a major factor in why we are playing in September this year without a doubt.

Has impacted the side in a similar vain to Ivan when he arrived.

I just hope we don't crock him like we crocked Ivvy.
 
Nank goes a long way to proving the over-value placed on ruckman. A strong ruckman that can break even in hitouts but can play as a ruck-rover just adds to overall blend of pressure and speed

Was killed in hitouts. Smith had 51 to his 32, however the difference between the two for hitouts to advantage was only 1 (8 to 7). 2nd ruck Blicavs had 10 hitouts and 4 to advantage. But as we have shown over and over the ruck contest is over-rated, you can counter it if you set up correctly. The worry always is of course if Nanks gets injured during the game.
 
A big reason we're successful this year. It's more about his attitude and tenacity than it is about his ruckwork. Provides great cover for our mids
 
How lucky were we to get him. He played in the Semi final last year and then got dropped for Tippett in the Preliminary final. A fair chance he'd still be with the Swans if he hadn't been dropped.

And ironic that Tippett now can't get a game.

At the ground it felt like he halved the contest. Which is just fine.

Jacobs will be a handfull for him ( if we get that far)
 
How good would the big Nank be feeling, he's gonna play in a massive Prelim final & his ex team mates aren't :clap
 
Got us back in the game second half.

Brutal.

Lobbe ? Didn't want to compete as did in the first half. That knee into the stomach sorted him out!
 
He's got some ticker this kid, lobbed had enough in the end, couldn't handle it physically.
