This could be the arm that blocked him, but WTF are these flogs looking at anyway. It is Nank's fault for not been on Gawn. At least Broad tried.

Ah cmon. That’s not a block. Please. My 82 year old mother in law could block better than that. The ball is also a mile away from being marked and he has ample time to spoil.
Yeah Broad. Not Vlastuin.
Yeah he was late to the party. We all love his efforts but has too many brain fades at times.
Happened right below us. The guy in front of me watched the build up closely. Vlas and Broad told Nank to move away and that they had Gawn covered. Nank at first said no and according to the guy in front Vlas told him to move off to the "pack" to the side.
Note: He didn't do that in the last and outmarked Gawn at least twice.

Gee, that last pic sure as hell looks like the Melbourne players are holding the Richmond defenders back from the contest. That has never been legal but it happens all too often these days and is a blight on the game.

I reckon that is reasonable- you want your ruckman free to come over and spoil, rather than be tangled up on the line, potentially out of play.
Nank just got it wrong. He was blocked, a little, but he still should have impacted the contest. he looked like he lacked awareness so once his run was impeded just a touch he couldnt get where he needed to be.
and on Nank V Gawn. we beat them every year ( i think) from 17-20. When we were the better team. They have beaten us since, when they have been the better team. Gawn is a great ruck, but when we were good enough he made no difference to the result.
He made no difference to result?
WTF??
If he was playing for us and he was up against Nakas & Naismith we wouldve won.
He was roving his own taps.
Nakas is cooked.
Time to plsy Mr invisible Samson
That's waht I saw, td. He definitely walked at times during the Melbourne game. Conspicuously. I reckon it was later in the game. Maybe for the final 45 minutes. Up until then I thought he was good and we had Narrm's measure in most stoppages.
I'm not sure why he stopped running. Conspicuously. It seems very odd to me. I would assume injury. In 2022 when Nank stopped jumping it was because he was unhappy with his PCL. Burge said at the time that Nank's PCL was as good as it was going to get. But still Nank would not jump. He resumed jumping on 2023.
I am mystified by the non running and injury is my best guess. Corkie? Calf? Maybe soleus. We'll find out.
I reckon Nank was out of position, anyway, wasn't he, tl? Too wide?
That said we don't have defenders who can spoil even rucks at this stage. Gawn should have been easily covered by somebody.
Nank miles lout of position IMO, tf. Way too wide. The shot is after he realised he'd got lost. Was wide of the point post when Gawn took position.
Yeah too late to the party. Kudos to Nank for his efforts but too many brain fades as we need a smarter ruckman in the future Jack. I can see it in Samson already a bit.
I think the Sampervan is still a ways off, tf. I'm just having another look at the Magoos game.
My suspicion is that Nank got a corkie or something in the Melbourne game and dropped off. I reckon he as ok for most of the game. We all agree that he was hopeless later in the game.
