Rate a Tiger's year - Shane Edwards?
« on: October 22, 2017, 07:02:09 PM »
Next up is Edwards.

Shedder played 20 games in his 11th season. He missed 5 games between rounds 3 to 7 due to a hip injury in our win over Collingwood. His best performances were left to when it mattered - 24 disposals, 6 marks, 4 tackles and a goal in the Qualifying Final, only topped by 25 disposals , 7 clearances and 8 inside 50s in the Grand Final. Shane also had 19 possies versus GWS in the Prelim. His other 20+ possie games came against Freo in round 8 and against the Power, Saints and Lions between rounds 14-16.

Played really well at the business end of the season but as usual had many underwhelming games.

His handpassing in the finals was special.

His finals series was sublime.
Justified the rants of the apologists, made the bitchers look like nuffers
“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.

Stood up when it counted the most. Handpassing and clearance work in finals brilliant. Tackle on Cameron in GF brilliant.

Stood up in finals. That's all that matters.

He's now a better player than Deledio. Fact! 
The club that keeps giving.

Always been elite with his hands. So glad he delivered on the big stage, I always had belief that he could.

Easily our most underrated player. One of my favourite Tigers, onya Shedders!

Depends who you ask. Some think he's a dud, some think he's in and out of games/form and some think he borders on elite. I think that sums him up perfectly i.e. you just never know what you're going to get

After watching the game multiple times, this bloke was A grade on the day.

Those handballs were lightening quick.
