Surely he is the alpha male of AFL ruckmen?

Nankervis is the bully who bullies the bullies. If the AFL was a school yard, Nankervis would have all the lunch money by mid-morning each day, including that of the school principal, all the teachers and even the maintenance guys.

Nobody eats unless Toby says so.

I think it was around the wing/half forward area and he wrapped up some Aints bloke.
He was just about to absolutely smash him to the ground when the whistle blew for a ball up.
So close.
Thanks Swannies. What a gift.
Love the Nank.

Nanks is going a great job but if we are not careful we will 'Maric' him by wearing him out before his time. We have to start looking at CCJ to give him a spell when we can. When Soldo is back fit and Samson comes good then we are set

Going from no opposition to the best in the comp in a week. Huge test for the big fella this week.
Gawn does not like physicality.
Nanks won’t be happy with how things went in the practice match earlier this year even though Gawn had a month longer preparation. He has a long memory and will relish the opportunity of revenge.
Nanks must intimidate him and then break him.

I don't reckon Toby is too keen on spells.

Not sure there is a footballer that takes more pride in their own performance than Nank. He doesn't allow himself to be below par 2 games in a row. His smashing of St Kilda was entirely predictable.

This bloke is all heart and soul. But we will send him to an early retirement if we don’t give him a chop out soon.

Yep Soldo is a massive loss for us this year. I reckon a bigger loss than anyone would have imagined.

Agree. But we have a player in the VFL and refuse to play him. Even early days last year we tried the one ruck system and we looked at our worst. Once we played a two ruck combo we were much more damaging.

His physical work tonight was immense. Took every, and I mean every, opportunity to hammer Gawn into the ground. Gawn was barely walking by the end and not very happy about it. That said, Gawn has become a genuine champion and still carried them to a comfortable win. Thank *smile* it’s only round 6.
