Word is he is playing across HB in the scratch matches at training but that may be to just fill in for Bachar who is in rehab.


Has been training on the HB this summer- not sure why...

He's a bit like a new GF.  Needs to be tried in every position before deciding whether to hang on to them or not.

Have only seen a few pics of him, but he appears to have trimmed down a bit.

Thought he was never fit and overweight last year.

Still has something to offer i think but needs to lift

You can question his role, you don’t have to mix that 1 sentence question within an essay potting the guy but I guess that’s just what you do.
Potting, Potting your freakin kidding aint ya.More like fact something rose sniffers like you find hard to deal with.
Cmon be honest with all here, what have i said that is not warranted?

1/ i posted Hardwicks comments about him really being inside and he would eventually play there and improve. Has it happened? Answer is no.
2/ Was his 2017 ordinary to average ? Imo yes and as stated a lot around here thought the same.
3/ AS STATED His 2018 was very good playing as a medium fwd  what the #@#* are you complaining about there.
4/ 2019 and 2020 was ordinary or average a lot have agreed but fmd dont anyone dare say one of our own had an average yr.
5/ Lots have complained about him playing on a wing but hey lets never ever criticise the dumb move it was.What the hell is our really big bodied inside gun recruit doing on a wing/ SHEESH THATS TOO HAIRY A QUESTION TO ASK.
6/ People have criticised his body of work as an inside mid. The fact being we have tried to play him every where  but inside.we continue to do so.
Yes he is slow fact. A pretend tough guy who does nothing but gob off or get involved in jumper tugging that has never been tough in my book.
A below average possesion winner fact, A player who for a so called inside player doesnt win a lot of ball fact.
A player who doesnt lay a lot of tackles and wins few clearances both fact.

If any of this is incorrect then please let us all know. Hmmm potting or just telling it as it is.Of course for some tiger supporters anything that doesnt pump em up is potting. :whistle

Thought he was excellent

Amazing what being injury free and fully fit can mean
"Oh yes I am a dreamer, I still see us flying high!"

He’s been played in all sort of positions. I admire his determination in constantly relearning his craft to offer something to the team.

I still would’ve had him ahead of Pickett last season for that wing position.

Just need to make sure he plays on the opposite wing of Brad Hill when we vs the Saints.  :rollin

He doesn’t tackle. Marlion does.
“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.

I’m impressed , looks like he has put the hard work in to regain his spot as the first picked. There will be competition for spots
