Sorry guys went camping on the weekend and had no internet access
GWS - Pick #29 - Toby Nankervis
Position:Ruckman
Height:200cm
Weight:100kg
Born:12.8.94
Home club:North Launceston
With the slow progress of Downie and Phillips, we decided to take Toby who we believe is the best ruck in this year's draft.
As with all young ruckman, he will be a long term prospect and be given the opportunity to develop by having Mumford and Giles holding down the ruck duties for at least the next couple of years.
Toby is a very strong and athletic Ruckman with a great vertical leap. He is very strong overhead and is very comfortable in a deep forward role. Toby averaged 18 possessions per game in the Under 18 championships and in one game bagged 5 goals. He was overlooked in last years draft but his improvement in the last 12 months has proven he has the ability to take the next step.
