Leave the team, leave Tuck alone, he is doing his bit.
I'm inclined to agree with this.  Tuck might not be starring but he is still doing a fair bit of the bullocking work that is generally done best by the older, harder bodies.  He hasn't been our worst in the past 2 weeks (not that we have had that many play poorly) and I think he is earning his keep by taking a lot of the knocks in and under, allowing guys like Deledio, White etc to get out and run.  We still need to maintain balance in our structure, even though the kids are now starting to lead from the front.

He does do his bit, he puts his body on the line every game, found under packs fighting for the ball, puts on the blocks needed for our midfielders to break free. This is why you see Tuck chasing midfielders after his body has copped a huge whack & people want to drop him.
Its not going to happen.
give the player more credit  :thumbsup his doing alot more than some are seeing cause their eyes are following the ball. Take Tuck out & you take out midfield protection which is very valuable

I'd bring Bowden in for Hyde despite the success of his tagging jobs last week.
If Joel isn't a better option than Chris, I'll go hey.

Joel's got more talent but they seem to be making a point with him at the moment.

They're now predicting 16 degrees and the worst of the showers on Sunday. Might make things interesting if they're right.

Yes, go small and run.

I think we can do this.

i remember a game where we beat the dawks by scoring only 4 goals and it was pelting down.

benny gale kicking the sealer or saved the day by marking on the goal line, cant remember

lets hope history repeats and blingers kicks the sealer

Remember it well Round 3 1995

16 with hail on Sunday after a Saturday with plenty of rain.
Buddy may not be a factor after all which will suit me fine if the game is a slog in the slop. The way we tackled and have played tough footy the last two weeks we are not without a yelp in conditions such as those especially with the run we have provided. Hawks coming off 3 interstate trips in 4 weeks also could be a factor in the last quarter on a heavy boggy ground.

We have a good record in the wet too. Kept the Pies to just one goal in a half in 2006.

We'll see how much Buddy (dis)likes contested footy.

Ha Ha - VFL 'Artic' Park - The same day the dogs almost held Carltank goaless at Whitten.

Stood in the rain all day on the terrace, figured I was allready wet once I got there so what the heck.

Went home very happy and soaked to the jocks ......

What the theatre goers of today would of thought about something like that  :rollin
