Class cost Tigers, says Hardwick (RFC)

[Carvels Ring]

Buddy was underdone and mcguane still couldnt keep up with him.  Mcguane was terrible and those last line of defence errors cost us.  He is hopeless and only was retained due to our lack of big blokes.  Thursty was good, moore was OK but mcguane was embarrassing

[Infamy]

Given Moore was on Rioli, I wouldn't say he was that great

[the_boy_jake]

Only highlights the problem we have with 3 talls who aren't especially tall or agile. We will struggle with a power forward on their day and struggle with an agile small-mid sized forward on their day.

[eliminator]

We need a centre half back. We have a full back in Will. Until we have a centre half back we will struggle down back. Hopefully Post will develop into a centre half back. McGuane should be the third option not the first option for that position.

[Tigermonk]

l would have rested Moore & brought in Kingy to tag Rioli, Rough him up & biff him a few times,  Even if he got a week or 2 suspension his done his job. All they using him for is Coburg & wasting another good player for another club to pick him up to come back & bite us.

i agree with hardwick we lacked class and polish. the thing is we will never have enough of either with the likes of graham rance mcguane nahas jackson tuck polak white edwards all in the one team.

imo we were competetive because we went into the game with enough height and size. big bodies enable you to compete but it wont help you win if you have too many who lack that polish.

From where he was standing at the start of the year Edwards is currently the clubs most improved player.

He has certainly improved over the last 4-5 weeks, it's a pitty Connors stuffed up off field as he was looking good too and they both could have been the surprise packets of the year to date. Lets just hope Edwards can maintain the form.

hmm i reckon the last few games last yr saved his bacon. and i reckon hes been servicable in games this yr.
my trouble is when it comes to players like edwards for wont of a better analogy  you rarely see a leopard change its spots, not for long anyway.
the jury is out thats something.
