Happy to see how he played the rest of the year out. Doesnt matter to some though, he could kick 10, with 15 marks, 8 inside 50's and 10 tackles and he would be treated the same as if he didn't get a touch. Ah... the blindfold gang. :snidegrin

Blokes who can play forward and pinch hit in the ruck are hard to find.

I suggest they keep looking. He can't do either

Have to laugh when he pulls out of ruck contests....

Don't believe me? Watch Saturday....

Not that I don't believe you but for him to make it I reckon he has to become a permanent ruck. Does he have the balls and the fitness? Probably not but he's a proven spud forward. Not bad around the ground as a ruckman.

Agree....always looks better on ball even if he can't ruck for shyte...like an extra mid, is good in traffic and can't hide.....easier to rove when you know your ruck is going to lose every hit out out than when it's 50/50 anyway...

....anyway....no doubt he'll help himself to a bag of Joe's against Brisbane's hacks & kids and all will be well again..... :gotigers

Needed to be dropped.

Look at the two guys dropped this year - Miles and Griff. Both came back and are playing very good footy.

Why couldn't Ty be dropped to set a standard for him to achieve like the other two?

I think this is Hardwick's worst trait - setting a standard of excellence that is consistent for all members in the squad.
OER. Calling it as it is since 2004.

Disgraceful. Small efforts in a few contests otherwise useless as usual.

Nah apparently dropping those two had absolutely nothing to do with their form

After listening to Hardwick's presser all TV has to do is provide a contest and thats his role and apparently did what he had to do today. He aint going out of the side unless he gets reported or injured from what i can tell.

Why try to win or even provide a sufficient run of win on wins when you can 'provide a contest' against 17th for a pass

5. Vickery's moment of magic

He's so often the whipping boy, but Tyrone Vickery gave Tigers fans a reason to smile when he snapped his team's ninth goal of the game. Using his left boot, he floated the ball through to provide what was arguably the contest's best highlight. Perhaps even better was his response, a small shrug of the shoulders to the crowd before turning to celebrate with his teammates, as if to signify that he, like everyone else, wasn't expecting a goal either.
