Sounds like he takes after Rex Hunt, Hope he can have as good a football career as him.  Including playing in a few GF's also.

Need to find out the name of the charter company, it could be good for their business.  I for one like going on the odd fishing charter and would be more than happy to use them if i got thursty out on the boat with me.

SNAPPY CUISINE

PROUD hunter of a splendid snapper is Mark Coughlan who, in the company of several Richmond buddies, went out on a boat on Sunday with a group from the Futurefish Foundation that aims to teach young anglers about sustainable practices.

While Coughlan, a keen fisherman, doesn’t look overly happy in this shot, he was feeling pretty chuffed yesterday after enjoying his catch at a barbecue put on by fellow Tiger Andrew Raines the next day.

"He was probably four kilos, but you can say he’s six if you like," Coughlan said.

Incidentally, the weekend outing was fruitful for Raines, Adam Pattison, Kayne Pettifer and Kelvin Moore as well. Only Will Thursfield returned to solid ground empty-handed.

Most impressive of all though was Raines’ subsequent efforts with the snapper in the kitchen.

"He wrapped it in foil and chucked it on the barbecue. He even marinated it, I think," Coughlan said, still sounding stunned. "But that was just trying to impress his girlfriend and he actually forgot to scale it."

Not too sure if it is just the angle or photo but he looks like he has bulked up a bit

Tiger catches on
By Craig Hutchison
Sunday Herald-Sun 16 NOV 2008, Page S07

* THIS photograph is proof that Adam Pattison can catch a fish. (anyone got the pic?)

After teammate Will Thursfield told this column of Pattison's trouble landing a fish last week, the Tiger ruckman has been quick to hit back. Pattison landed the catch of the day last Sunday.

Pattison cruised the bay with teammates Mark Coughlan, Kelvin Moore, Kayne Pettifer, Andrew Raines and Thursfield, along with Carlton's Richard Hadley, fishing for snapper as part of the Futurefish charity.

What did we all think of his comeback game last night?

I thought he went fine
Did a pretty good job on McPharlin until he went off injured
Didn't notice him much after that though

It was an average game by Thursfield. Did some good and some bad but remained competitive. Should keep his spot.

I thought his game was passable.

However I want Rance in when he is ready and I think Thursfield is the one to go.

Couldnt drop McGuane, Tambo, Polo, Newman or Moore so I think thursty might have to make way.

It should be Bowden who gets dropped for Rance

I was disappointed with Will's game - he seemed to struggle reading the play and keeping up with it.

Having said that I'd give him another game next week to see where he is at.

get off joels back, he is still in our best 8 players, and once again played a vital part in our win

i hardly noticed Thursfield. but that i thought was a good thing. i do not think his opponent(s) had much of the Football.

Joel Bowden was not the worst player for us. but i would drop him for Rance.

however i though, Brown, Pettfier, Simmonds, White were worse.

Brown is such a 'show pony' it isn't funny, and i think he should retire!

Simmonds has lost it. (it happens)

Pettifer is just no good!

Absolute garbage, he did one nice pass the whole night to Cotchin who delivered to Morton for the goal, he did sweet FA the entire night. No way would I have him in our top 8 players, not even close.
