Mitch can play.

He can kick a nice snap occasionally from the sidelines.

I agree entirely with Dimma's distaste as a player. Very selfish footballer IMO.

And Reiwoldt isnt selfish?  All forwards are selfish, Bartlett was one of our greatest and he was called "Hungry" need I remind people.  There is more to this than being a selfish footballer.  His muscle mass stops him from being a crash and bash mid fielder and the defensive side of his game is poor.  But he is a good kick for goal.

I just think Dimma has fallen out of love with his lack of tackling pressure, in a side without a lot of big heavy hardened bodies he is just another defensive liability that the side doesn't need.

You are both  arguing the same point, just in differing ways.

No interest for him. Do we delist him or try and get him to stay at club?

He overrates his own talent. Not good.

When has he overrated his own talent?  I haven't heard him do this.  He may just want to play football and earn a quid and he isn't getting much run time on atm.

The Tigers have thrown up forward Mitch Morton who, like many fringe players on club lists, is yet to draw much interest.

At club level, the expectation is that there will be more interest in moving and purchasing players today now that the 17-year-old trades have been completed.
