Who would you have in your 22?
-
All duel premiership players.
Rance
Richardson.
Pre broken leg Brown
Deledio

And if I had my way I would have the push up king in any Tiger team.

Gaspar yes but only if your allowed to put your hands in your opponents back.
I still remember a pre season game at Kardinia Park when that rule was introduced he gave away about 12 free kicks and it kind of ruined him after that.
-
Foley. Deledio, Cogs, Richo, Brown. Krak, Tucky & Ottens were our only pre-premiership players worth a damn this century.... :shh

At the start of this year, we asked you to help us come up with the Tigers’ Team of the 21st Century so far.
The votes have been counted & we can now begin revealing your line-up, thanks to @Swinburne.
Nick Vlastuin is the first back pocket in the side.

This is a nonsense. Only Richo as a non premiership player should qualify. So its 21 premiership players and Richo only.

Dave Astbury a bit stiff. Hands in the back rule affected Gaspars career and never the same after this was introduced. Gave away too many free kicks.
-
Wayne Campbell has been named on the other wing.

I had Ottens in my team, but as first ruck.
Buggered if I know who will be the first ruck then...surely not Nankervis or Maric.

Might as well...team's already a joke with One-Way Newman & Sideways Sikorsky Campbell in it... :shh

Lol get outta here. Love the bloke but he wouldn't be in my top 3 rucks of 2000+

Dusty named as ruck rover.

IMO, Ottens got in this side on the back of one good year for us (2001). Otto's best years were at Geelong from 2007 onwards. While Ottens overall career is ahead of Nank's, as Richmond players I would have Nank first in terms of his consistency and contribution to the team over the three years he's been at Tigerland.

Cotch named as rover.

Backup ruckman 😁
-
Why doesnt Knights qualify and tom lynch has only had one season but that season easily places him among the top 3 tall fwds if not fwds we have had this century.
for me no squib it ups like Houli or Ellis.
Only three kpds to pick from one has been a great and the other two so so.
Apart from Brown No small fwds for me either. what a limited bunch to pick from. Mostly Soft or ordinary wingers and fmd the ruck stocks are slim pickings as well
Anyway for me id go like this
Vlastuin - Gaspar - Grimes
Cameron - Rance - J Bowden
Wanted Deledio at H/B but i needed a decent wingman.Prefer Bowden to Houli or Newman as a flanker.
Grigg - Knights - Deledio
this shows how limited the wing selections are.Its either those two or Freakin Brandy softie Ellis, cant find the ball and fumble when i do McIntosh or possibly Greg Tivendale lol. Maybe they should have put Caddy there lol.Grigg may not be everyones cup of tea he certainly aint mine but i reckon hes the best of a poor lot for the second wing spot.Knights imo does qualify 63 games not enough.
H/F Brown - Richardson - Lambert
FF/ Edwards - Lynch - Riewoldt
Lamenting we dont have an all round small goal kicking fwd out of about 7 or 8 so went with mids come fwds in Edwards and Lambert.
R/ Ottens - Martin - Cotchin.
Fmd we have had a dearth of quality ruckmen at the club since the General. Ottens is easily the best of the rest weather you think him a traitor or not.
INT/ Prestia - Foley - A fit Coughlan - Campbell maybe, Tuck maybe always had a soft spot for Tucky. Johnson maybe was never a real fan of him.
-
Tuck at his best was a effing elite tackler and extractor. Huge soft spot for me. Modest and decent guy too. Appreciated every minute he got out there.
-
Kane Johnson gets the last spot on the bench.

Foley, Tuck at their best are stiff. Kellaway too.
Happy for Jackson to miss, I liked him personally for my own team but he really did only have one stellar year. I liked his hardness.
Bowden making the team is fine.
Nankervis is wrong IMO, as much as I am fond of him he probably only gets the nod because he's a dual premiership player. I don't think he's our best ruck at the moment - Soldo has gone past him and I can see CCJ doing the same. I also think Maric was better and in some ways I preferred both Stafford and Simmonds. All of the ruckman listed would be premiership players if they were playing in 2019 but arguably Nankervis' competitive spirit (akin to Maric IMO) was one of our key driving factors in 2017.
