personally, I'm at least feeling some comfort in the fact that Thursfield is back. he's not great, but at least he is a tall defender who can do an OK job. Dawes and Cloke will still prove to be very tough to handle, but at least young Grimes has some tall support this time.

Watch Cameron Wood destroy our Gus.

Wood is a wacko too.

Shame about Mitch, seemed to have a great pre season and finished last year amazingly well.
Hope he plays on the wing in the 2's
Go Tigers!

Miller will be good

Well that tells me in a strange sort of way that we are going in to give it go as opposed to last year when we played Geelong and it appeared at the selection table at least we had conceded the game beofre we headed down the highway

Bringing in 2 taller players, one being a bigger body player is what we needed

One thing about Miller he can play up forward or down back and I reckon he can pinch hit in the ruck as well

Hopefully with Vickery, Miller and Jac forward Nick Maxwell will be made accountable for once.

Interesting that we dropped two relatively mature players while keeping our new recruits in the team. These changes are either directly for matchup purposes or for the two players unfufilling their role/following team rules adequately. I'm inclined to believe the initial reason first though it does tell Morton and Connors that they are expendable in the team currently and need to pick up their games significantly.
