Out of the young kids, I would really love to see Griffiths, Taylor, Contin and Jakobi find there way into the side at some point during the year, I think the club will give Taylor a couple games in the 2s to get some match fitness and when Griffiths comes back from injury will be played in the 2s also.

Macdonald, Grimes and Post should all get game time this year, would really like to see how a forward line of

Taylor - Riewoldt - Macdonald

Helbig - Griffiths/Vickery/Post - King

I think that forward line could have some potency and trouble a few times with height and forward pressure with the speed of all 6 players.

Out of the older blokes Moore, King and Farmer should come straight back into the side after they recover from injury and Kings suspension.

Derickx I think will come in at some point, could maybe replace Gus to give him a rest for a couple of weeks and have a ruck combo of Derickx, Vicker/Post for a few weeks to see how that goes.
As it showed last night in the third quarter, if we get the footy into our forwardline quick and with some direction we have some decent forwards. And to those who wanted to move Jack away from the goal square, it just showed how important he is at FF.
God i enjoyed that third quarter!!!

Those who think that are either on drugs or need to watch that 3rd quarter again.

We just need to find someone who can play alongside him. Its worrying though BT, that Richo turned games in our favour just as Jack did last night and look where that got us.

Thought Morton's last half was average last night, after starting strong

I really think its more about how it gets into our forwardline than if we have good enough players to kick a winning score... The more 'good' oppotunities we give these guys one on one the better we will become.

You will like this Daniel, had a hundred on the Tiges at halftime at 12 bucks. Made the third quarter even more exciting!  :lol

Go Tiges!!!!  :thumbsup

Yeah mrs found out i had another account in her name during the week she started calling me Fevola..lol

Last night wasnt about winning money i just wanted to run all over those idiots, especially after the half time sms's i was copping from Cartlon mates declaring the year over for Tigers already.

Was quite happy with how we played overall. Beating the Saints will be just as sweet as winning last night.

Lmao
Yeh, great idea.
Post the pinch hitter. 
Says a lot about our ruck stock.
It's like putting a gay band aid over cancer.
Keep watching the footy,tiger


Ask Leigh Brown how his pinch hitting went, he won a flag.
Go Tigers!

I cam see up seven odd changes from last night team.  

I would be happy to drop:  Jackson. Houli. Connors. Nahas. Edwards. White. Graham.


I would not drop
1st / 2nd year players at this stage.

People might be against dropping Jackson but tuck would give you similar output.

Options to come in:
talls;  Griffiths. Derickx. Browne. Moore. Post. Thursfield. Gourdis. Miller. Rance*. Mcgaune*
Small.  Tuck. Jackobi. Dea. Nason. Orielly. Hislop. Macdonald. Contin. Webberly. Farmer. Hicks.

What will the 22 be when we win our first game? What will team look like by round 22?

agree 100% with you there Jack. Nahas in particular had a hand in about half our goals.
“For My thoughts are not your thoughts,
Nor are your ways my ways,” says the Lord.
 
“For as the heavens are higher than the earth,
So are my ways higher than your ways,
And my thoughts than your thoughts."

Yahweh? or the great Clawski?

Connors, very much over rated.
Cant play in my opinion.
Wouldnt get a game in a top 4 team, so whats the point.
Kicking is ordinary, hits up opposition "'lace out"'
and continues to run himself into trouble.

There is always the box Jack - Nahas was very hard at it last night laid around 12 tackles and had pace in the wet
Jackson solid as always

Couldn't possibly drop Nahas or Jackson after last night - was almost Nahas' best game for us and I was staggered when he wasn't in our best in the media report I read.  Jackson and Tuck play different roles and Jackson was ok last night.  White has been excellent for 2 weeks so can't get dropped on one game.  The others you mentioned - maybe, but in my opinion you missed the one that really needs dropping and that's Morton.  Has not played anywhere near well enough for a player of his talent so far this season - needs a set role and a kick in the bum.
