Nankervis !!

Thought it was Cotchin, Rance, Rioli then Nankervis for best on ground for us.
He took marks when they were needed, particularly down back I thought. Had the 2nd most 1%ers after Rance.
Loved his physicality, just loved it. His tackling was fierce.

He also got plenty of rest - only played 80% game time. Which is good for us for next week.
 
Grigg taking on secondary ruck duties needs a mention here. Sure he didn't compete a lot but he took the responsibility up for the team and was always there.

On at least one occasion he just didn't go up. He just received the tap & cleared.


Cheeky.
 
Legend. Not sure we would have made the Grand Final without him let alone win it.
 
Thought he was very influential.
A great pick up!!!
He bought into the team ethos and look what happened.
 
Around the ground was an extra midfielder.

First quarter and a half Jacobs dominant but Nank wow.

Thank you Swans.
 
Thought The Nank held his own against the taller Jacobs. In fact, reckon he was the best of the ruckmen in the second half.
Was very influential for the Tigers and contributed a great deal to the victory.
Really enjoyed his game today. Such a dependable no-nonsense sort of player who gives his all for his mates and his club.
 
Fremantle mate of mine that was here watching the game with me felt that Nank was so much better than Jacobs because he was more effective when the ball was on the ground, and that while Jacobs won the hitouts, they were of little/no advantage.

Nank the Tank must be pinching himself (like Prestia & Caddy). They LOVE their new family.
