Tigers v Hawks who will be the mediocre lifter?
« on: April 06, 2011, 10:55:00 AM »
As usual, whenever we play someone, there is always one player, of mediocre ability who invariably lifts just for us and gives us a toweling. So far this season it has been Betts & Milne.

So who will be the mediocre lifter for the Hawks?? Gibson? Hale? Bateman? anyone else??

I can see Hale ripping us a new one, we are already running short down back, Hale as a 3rd tall will really stretch us I feel......

On the flip side you could say that our "mediocre" players have been terrific so far this year.

White has been born again as a tagger plus Jacko and King have kicked important goals.

Grigg arrived at Punt rd with not much fan fare and has been absolutely killing it.

Burgoyne, will probably kick 6 and rack up about 30+.

Hale was the first name that came to my mind too TFT. He did sweet stuff all against us everytime we played North but as a 3rd tall at Hawthorn with Hodge, Mitchell, Burgoyne and co. feeding him there's a chance he could burn us given our missing tall defenders  :-\.

Burgoyne, will probably kick 6 and rack up about 30+.

Burgoyne is not mediocre - was BOG on Sunday. Just been injured until this year.
“I find it nearly impossible to make those judgments, but he is certainly up there with the really important ones, he is certainly up there with the Francis Bourkes and the Royce Harts and the Kevin Bartlett and the Kevin Sheedys, there is no doubt about that,” Balme said.
