The punching seemed to be across the board tonight . Was it a tactic?

He is a disgrace to be called a captain IMV. The dropped marks and lack
of leadership is what cost us tonight

If anyone think that’s harsh well FO

I’m with ya.

Dropped some crucial sitters.

Samson was crap too but he’s a kid.

There was at least half a dozen more but if I was Dimma I would have brought up
4.30 mins to go and your captain drops a mark he shouldn’t have.

Seriously embarrassing he has become and play like that cost us a win. He didn’t deserve a game so why bring  him in?

Ryan looked good in that number one ruck role with Miller backup and this was my fear we abandon it to make room for Nank because his a captain poor coaching for me.

Nankervis has really struggled in the last 2 years and his biggest downfall was the EF last year. Terrible game.

He hasn’t played well since 2021.

I can’t believe how much he has lost the ability to take marks
The club that keeps giving.

NANK STILL THE TANK

News that Toby Nankervis was being sent for ankle surgery after the round 4 loss would have rattled Tigers fans. The game’s big men take time to recover from ankle and foot issues, and Nankervis is certainly big.

But the co-captain showed no signs of being underdone as he had a huge impact through the middle of the ground and floating back behind the ball.

Nankervis had 11 disposals and a game-high 10 hit-outs in the first half, with Bombers duo Sam Draper and Andrew Phillips struggling to make an impact.

Show the clip with 4.30 left in the game as well as about 8 others.

Nank is finished as a captain. Dump his sorry arse.

Are you happy to dismiss his whole year as well?

I don’t agree gig with your comment because he has been pathetic all year. He is not a captains a hole, and neither is grimes for that matter.  He doesn’t stand up when we need him.

He’s been very ordinary all year
The mark at 4.30 isn’t as bad as you are making out
But with you on him being very ordinary since getting the captaincy

Hasn’t worked out at all

I think if we did a highlights video on his game it would really show how ordinary he was all over the ground. Sadly his form has been horrible for 2 years now since taking on the captaincy. He needs to step down from the captaincy and find form in the VFL.
