So how did we all rate Tom's 3rd year?

Meh! = 3/10

For mine Hislop would drastically want to improve and show something more if he wants to be around in 2011. Just didn't do enough for a small in his 3rd year. Lucky to survive to be honest thanks to being contracted IMO. Make or break in 2010. If he can't step up under Hardwick who would like Hislop's hardness then I can't see him at Punt Rd beyond next year.

or should the question be how much does he need to lift to keep his spot for 2011?

Simply put a lot! Right now he's just an expendable fringe player.

3/10 for me too.

Based on what I saw from Hislop this season, we yet again paid well over the odds.
Lucky for him there are so many to go before him otherwise I would seriously have considered cutting him.

Fleming mk2 only not as good.

I'd play him out of a forward pocket. Does alot of one percenters smothers tackles and is aggressive. He could fit the bill to help keep the ball in the fwd line. Was coming out of our fwd line way too easily. Can bob up and kick a few goals.

I gave him 3 also. In a crap side like ours he stands out as being deficient as he doesn't get enough of it.

He was recruited as an inside mid and on that front he has failed to deliver.
Heck you can pick up forward pockets in the rookie draft who'd deliver more than Tommy did this year.

I am not having a crack Tucker as I know you marked him harshly but this player is quite simply a very slow dud.

another recruiting masterpiece by Jackson, Cameron and Wallet.

Hislop is an absolute joke of a footballer. A thug with no skill whatsoever.

Agree with 3 out of 10 MM.  Only thing I will say in his defence is that he was hardly tried as an inside mid. If Tucky goes then he might get a fair crack at it and then we get to see if he can cut it in there or not.  I'm not confident but he is staying regardless so who knows.

If that was to be entirely ineffectual and rough up a few players, then yes he was very good at what he was asked to do.

would there be a chance of him becoming a tagger.
or like in the collingwood match he'll get to distracted by tryin to take the man out and not tryin to stop his effect on the game.

Agree, 5/10 for mine too, he passed in that he did what he was told and performed the role he was given. I think next year will be a big one for him . . . and personally I like the bloke for giving it to Maxwell in Rd 20  :bow

Anyone who gives it to Maxwell is worth an extra vote!! Still I only give him 5 then with the extra vote.  He would need to improve next year.

4/10 for mine.

Is not quick enough to be a small forward offensively or defensively. Was recruited to get the ball and fire it out to the other midfielders yet has not been given a chance to do this role as yet. The same can be said for Thomson - if you recruit a bloke for a specific role why not play him there until he has a chance to prove his worth either way!?

Hislop needs to pick up his game to become a long term players. I think he should start with improving his attitude and work ethic.

thats all good and well if you can actually win your own ball effectively.

Hislop was a useless hack at the Bombers and was thrown to the only that club that wanted him. Richmond.

Once again we have a list clogger/loose cannon on our hands.

Seriously daniel, let's see what Dimma can get out of him - I reckon he may surprise a few people in 2010

If he doesn't improve he'll be gone

Just cause Jackson and McGuane are hard at the ball does not grant them the tag of "hardnut". I think Harro is thinking more along the lines of a player who roughs up his opposition and doesn't back down from a push and shove, a la Campbell Brown.

You're kidding me?  Jackson and McGuane are as antagonistic and confrontational as you would wish for - and both have more common sense and ability to carry off to advantage than the other 2.
