”You missed by that much”
Love Nank but he has been a liability at times this year.
He should not be captain because it doesn't look good when you drop the captain.
He is great around the ground and has suprisingly quick hands but I am sick to death if being belted at clearances.

Probably saw the jumper and automatically thought it was a reportable incident.
Is it him? Or is it the mids?Reckon the problem with clearances would be negated if they played a little more one on one at least your not second guessing where the tap goes.
He had 3 frees paid against him after that report in the space of 2-3 minutes.
He was clearly the best ruck on the ground yesterday. dont think i will ever watch a minute of that game again, but live it looked like he was paid frees against 3 times at CBs for doing things that happen every bounce. and evidently he never kneed a roo in the head.
The report was ridiculous. The umpires were gunning for him on the weekend. Everything he did they had him in their sights. I wonder if his physicality has been discussed at HQ?
Could we bring Griffens back? He was ear marked for 2nd ruck in 2017.
So Nank....reported and a fifty against...but not guilty.
Stewart. ..reported...no fifty paid...found guilty.
Draw your own conclusion.
Rank amateurism umpiring...or is it ?
I read that Nank copped 6 frees against after that report. Another witch-hunt.
I am sure the club are very disappointed they were not able to contribute to the AFL's holiday fund this week now that Nanks has no case to answer
Yes 3 in a row . He was very confused by those decisions.
Absolutely no doubt he was targeted and then punished by the poor quality , pre-directed umpires to set an example.
We have seen this multiple times previously.
Very very poor and unprofessional umpiring department at AFL.
I just couldn't stand the arrogant tone in that number 31 flog's voice when reporting Nank. It's like he was 100% sure he committed a crime.
Wow clearances have suddenly become a Nanks issue. Average clearances per opposition, 2022 15th, 2021 18th, 2020 16th, 2019 16th, 2018 18th, 2017 11th, 2016 12th, 2015 11th.
We didn't recruit to be a gun clearance team. And that hasn't changed. How many of our younger guys are inside bulls? Tap rucking is over-rated, the cattle at ground level is what counts. Perfect example, Demons have one of the best ruckmen going around, won the hit out count easily but they were smashed in clearances by Port 27 to 40. Our pressure game was taken away from us by the AFL. You recruit to your game style and this can't be changed overnight.
It's not a Nanks issue, he is getting more hitouts than ever in his career but he was never recruited for that to be his strength. Our issues run much deeper than that.
