QuoteWest Coast big man Nic Naitanui says he's being unfairly impeded by rival ruckmen, but hopes he will soon be given greater protection by AFL umpires.

Wah wah wah - Go and ask Sandilands how often he has been jumped in to at ruck contests. 
poor form there in my opinion mate, Naitanui is one of the nicest, most level headed players in the competition, you don't need to go around bagging him out as whining, if you listen to any of his player interviews he's all about "if they say its fair, its fair, its just part of the game"

Sounds like someone wished they had NicNat not Sandipants....

Absolutely not - NicNat is the most overrated palm tree in the competition.  I am just sick of the whining from WC and the WC-centric media jumping on board.  The best news article for me was after Walters played his 1st game for Freo this year the back page was "NicNat helps Freo to finals".  All because NicNat and Walters grew up together and Walters rang NicNat for some advice.

Sandilands has always had "extra" tactics employed against him for his entire career - do you hear him whinge about it?

He was talking about centre bounces where you cant have a 3rd man up.  I thiink NicNat needs to learn the rules because you are allowed to go over the centre line to tap/ruck the ball.  You just cant cross the line until the ball has been bounced.

You're a hack - Take your silly whinging and return to the purple forum and where you can count your premierships with the rest of the purple and green hacks. Gold Coast will win a premiership before you guys do.

Naitanui is a gun.

Its funny how one simple put down seams to silence so many Dockers supporters.

I was going to say Dockers for premiers 2013 but trading Broughton was a fail.

The Broughton trade was horrendous. Looks like they'll lose Robertson cheap as too...
