Which Tiger departure has caused you the most anguish??

[mat073]

We all know it's normal for "great" teams to have their fringe players poached or they leave for greater opportunity.

Which former tiger who was part of the dynasty era do you wish we still had on the books ??

I always loved Chol - and he's having a sneaky good season for the Sun's this year . 20 goals I believe. Would of been a natural successor to Jack .

Geoff Raines and David Cloke to the Scum.  Closely followed by Maurice Rioli wanting to go to Sydney

At least Maurice didn't go.

The other 2? More disappointed in Cloke as the Captain walking out with his reasons never having been fully explained. Raines? Well he even admits he made a bad call in leaving.

What happened with Rioli and Sydney for those who remember  ?.

They made him a huge offer. Was going and for whatever changed hid mind

When he came back he requested that he no longer wear number 17 as he felt he didn't deserve to. Moved onto number 27

Rioli was all but gone.  The good doctor Edeleston poached him with a huge money offer.

We refused to clear him though, Sydney couldn't fit him into a already busted salary cap and a stand-off resulted.  He sat out some games and then eventually came back with tail between his legs.

Was never the same player again unfortunately.

What hurt more was that Cloke and Raines had both left because Graham Richmond wouldn't give them a few more dollars to match what Rioli was getting.  We ended up losing all 3 effectively and that was the start of our 30 lost years.

Ottens for me

Was sad to see Brando go. 
Dan Butler also, always thought he was going to be good after his down year.

Raines was dirty because he was the best in the business and was earning $30k/year. Rioli came in on $80k apparently.

I hated it when Sheedy left when he should have been retained as coach
Others have been mentioned but I would add Kevin Morris
It also was a bust when we gave up the Whale, Teasdale and Jackson for Pitura

Won us two flags, kid. You're not a true supporter

Anyhow, Otto for me.
Schulzy well I was disappointed but I knew he was going. Dave Rodans treatment didn't sit right. But yeah, Ottens the only one that actually hurt my soul a little
