Let's go back to winning a few taps (which hardly go to advantage) and conceding a position on the field with a player who hardly kicks goals, lays tackles or takes marks around the ground and stands there with his hands on his hips. Brilliant :clapping
Sounds like your man Griff you so desperately want back in the side. Brilliant  :wallywink

I'd take a number of players before Griff and Elton but you'd have to be a complete stuffwit to think any of Chol, Moore or Soldo is going to get a game before them two. So I guess you probably believe it, ey? Oh well, you keep believing whatever it is you want to twist that conversation into. Enjoy having Elton not contributing in the ruck or the forward line :wallywink

Griffiths is the second coming of Paul Salmon compared to Hamspud...

Haven't you been listening to Big Note? It's Elton or nada. If you disagree then you must think Griff is a superstar and want him straight back in the team

Nankervis has been huge. People talk up Ordinary efforts like Caddy's as the reason why Martin and Cotchin have got better. The main reason is this big fella straight after a ruck contest his follow up work has been huge.
Still not sold that he can play fwd he can drift fwd as a ruckman and kick the odd goal.His gretest asset to us is virtually as another  big inside mid.

On Elton and Griffiths both should be given the flick.Though  I am happy for them to give Elton a few more opportunities he has not had many over the yrs would rather see if the 6 gamer can improve instead of the what 70 gamer.

I still argue why not Chol he showed a fair bit of promise in the off season game he got and i believe he has done okay in the ressies as well.

We are winning games atm playing Griffiths and Elton has not cost us too much so why not Chol as well.

Big Nank laid seven tackles, I usually have to wait a season for our ruckman to get that many

Loved his chase where he showed some serious leg speed and then laid 2 big tackles to lock it up, what a play.. and let's not forget he's only played about 20 games!!!

Love the tank

I'm sure his stats would have him in the upper echelon of Ruckmen so far this season. Such a relief to have him.

Loving Nankers. Not the prettiest player going around but just love when he pops up when you don't expect it, taking a mark in defence, crashing a pack, laying a tackle etc.

If we could find a taller ruck, Nank would be great at CHF.
