What a star.
Just goes to prove that anyone who voted against him in the favourite player game isn't a true Tiger, in fact I would go so far as to say they are most likely fair weather supporters who are seen in good times and never in bad, probably don't buy memberships and buy their AFL gear from K Mart.

Well done and yes he is a champion of the club. However I refused to vote for him in the favorite player thread for one simple reason.
He is not my favorite player.
Isnt that what the vote is about?
-
Stick to the topic ppl! >:(

Well I wanted to vote for the BAKE or Tuck, but nooooo everyone wants to vote for the Justin Beiber pinup boys. I kid I kid, Lids will rip it apart with support in the midfield, he wont have every bastard hanging off of him because they have a couple to chose from now. He will be contender for the coleman slotting em all all day running in from the midfield.

his abilty to not miss games is 2nd to not many people over the last 150 years.
This alone is deserving of respect.

Very true Bents, let's hope his resilience continues for another 150.

For memory I think they said he hasn't missed a gam esince 2007
And is 2nd of current day players of consecutive games
-
We'd certainly miss him if he got injured (touch wood).
Personally I really like Deledio off HB but am happy to see him spend more time in the middle.
Hopefully he kills it in 2012.
