More than Lynch?
Thought Lynch was great , however I thought the only way the Saints could win was by getting on top in the middle, Nank didn’t allow that to happen, he also pushed back deep and helped the defenders out when the Saints were up and running .

Probably won't get many votes but I might sneak him in. Classic Nank.

Gave him a couple of votes. Thought he was very good. The tractor found another gear tonight. Needs to steel himself for Lycett/Ladhams.

Would have to be one of his best for the year. He was everywhere! Loved in the last how he just rag-dolled Marshall at every ball up.

That he was really good. Best 3 for mine were Edwards, Martin and Nank.

Made me laugh I think in the 3rd, Butler is in our D50, ball bouncing around, looks like he wants to drive into a tackle, sees Nank coming the other way, Butts backs off. He knows how hard Nank hits, not nicknamed the tank for nothing, would have steamed straight through him if he didn't pull out.

Thought Marshall was great early but Nank just got better and better. Can't recall us ever dominating the centre like that - really makes a difference so not sure why we are so dismissive of it

Got pushed around last week, got worked over.

Tonight, he worked over a good player and when it was in the balance he made the difference.

Difference maker. Game breaker.

I have seen him play some good games before, but tonight to dominate the way he did for the whole game was the best I have seen him play - he changed the whole shape of the game which meant we dominated the centre - an area where we were worried was a strength of the saints.
