75 metres gained
2 score involvements
1 goal
76% time on ground.

Has definitely shown AFL traits among his 6 posessions at this level so far but was on a hiding to nothing tonight.  Throwdogs were up the other end most of the time and there wasn't exactly silver service when it did come his way.

I'd play him for the remainder of the season as a forward

Beautiful set shot for goal

Agree, but not as a KPF. He's a 3rd tall, flanker.

Honestly we should play Bradtke, Ryan and Bauer all forward for a bit.

Rest Jack.

[Diocletian]

Well we only have two games to do it now because unless he's going around again next year (hopefully not) there's no way Jack won't be playing the last one.

Yep that should be his farewell game.

Bloke needs a rest. Play the kids and get jack cherry ripe for a 6 goal send off

Agree but it does not have to be as a fwd. Lets see what a Nyuon has to offer as a fwd  before we delist him and see haow he JR and Ryan go  together. Nothing to lose and plenty to be found out and hopefully gained.

Agree atm he is not a kpp but would make an awkward third tall or flanker match up.

After Nyuon's efforts (and i use that term very loosely) on Saturday in the VFL are any indication he won't be getting a game any time soon and rightly so. Looked totally disinterested

[Diocletian]

Biggy probably knows he's gone. Personally think we've missed a big trick not developing him primarily as a ruckman.

McQualter commended the efforts of young Tiger utility player Jacob Bauer, who booted two goals in just his third AFL game.

“Jacob showed some great signs up forward,” he said.

“We got him some minutes down back late in the game as well. We know he can play both ends.”

Thought he competed really hard which is exactly what you wanna see from a young player. The goals will come

The Undroppable: Jacob Bauer

He might not have had a heap of it, but the Tigers must persist with Jacob Bauer.

With Jack Riewoldt potentially nearing the end, and while Tom Lynch remains sidelined, the club needs to find a competent mid-to-key sized forward.

Bauer at times looked decent against the Saints, returning two goals from nine disposals and four marks. He is definitely a threat in the air and will only benefit from more exposure at the elite level.

The 21-year-old must be kept in the senior side for the next two weeks as the Tigers begin to look to the future.

Beautiful set shot for goal

Reminds me of Jeff Hogg
They also liked swapping ends with Hogg
Looking forward to the Olympic Stand riots whe he starts at full back
