From Barrett's 'Sliding Doors' column:

IF ...
Nick Vlastuin's 2020 Grand Final was wrecked when knocked out by Danger and his round one game this year ruined with a knee injury ...

THEN ...
he's at least due to complete a game. Good to see him back for the Friday night game against the Cats.

Really wish Barrett would rename this little piece. He doesn't get what a sliding door moment really is. This is more Barrett's musings

Good to see him back but Our whole defence didn’t have their best night.

He looked under done. Shame he was going in while Grimes was dropping out

Sure was one off his worst games. Probably needed a run before coming back into the side but with Grimes going down they rushed him back. Hopefully he returns to his previous best soon.

Looking for positives.

Floss' best game since he's come back from injury. Kept Darling quiet despite being undersized and was back to his intercepting best in defence.

Apart from that howler in the last,  the kick in straight to an Eagle

I though he was our best tonight

A howler there that's for sure. Agree he was in our top 3 apart from that.

Did a great job on Darling. would not want to see him punching out of his weight division all the time because someone will get a hold of him.

Backs:

Nick Vlastuin showed great endeavour in a disappointing performance from the Tigers; he was a shining light for them in defence.

Dimma said post-game that Floss copped another knock to the same spot where his corky wise.
