That's a very low percentage given we were down to two on the bench for a quarter and a half

He was going to be subbed before Rohan got hurt so I guess it really isn't

I'll keep Dankervis for if he becomes a sociopathic and incompetent liar.

Yeah, Nankervis needs to build up his tank that's for sure, and he isn't quick. Don't expect him to get regular games just yet. Still, it was his first game, and he's not a potato. This is good.

Looked the goods, had presence. In the last quarter (I think), there was one piece of play where he didn't mark or gather the ball but just got a hand to it which kept it in front to which we crumbed the ball. Was impressed by that. Kicking looks good and goal kicking action is easily improved. His effort is pretty good too regularly putting in 2nd and 3rd efforts.
He is extremely slow though (looked at least the same if not slower than Pyke) and will need to improve his speed to be a truly dominant tall (though his other strengths can make him a handy player another step or two will allow him to cover more ground). Obviously his tank will build, another preseason will help and he now knows what it takes to play AFL footy.

Heard Vankervis was from Canada as well. Pyke has a buddy.
He's a ruckman, so surely the obvious one is Lankervis?
Dont let the woman get hold of him or he might become Spankervis

Not a bad debut at all but getting pumped up a little to much , still a fair way off being selected week in week out. Fitness still looks to be an issue

Was at the game so didn't really notice his rucking but his general field kicking looked good and there seemed to be a presence about him. Was he effective in the ruck?
Nice start to an AFL career ..... no pressure, no high expectations but a bloody good, solid first game.
