Feeling the heat: Which Tigers need a big preseason?
« on: November 13, 2021, 03:28:42 PM »
According to Sarah Black on the AFL website:

Josh Caddy - It was another frustrating season for  Caddy, who well and truly has the talent to play at AFL level. When given the opportunity in the seniors (nine games, three as an unused medi-sub) this year, he struggled for consistency on the wing. His best season in Tiger colours came in 2018, playing as a marking forward, but the combination of Jack Riewoldt and Tom Lynch (2019 onwards) has made this role difficult. Coming into the final year of his contract, it's a vital season for Caddy to reclaim his spot in the best 22.

Young fringe midfielders Jack Ross and Riley Collier-Dawkins[/b] will be looking to stake a more permanent claim on an AFL role.

Jake Aarts and Jason Castagna have to be under pressure after both having poor seasons.

Caddy not really. He already has his premiership medal. Probably Ross if anything.

Hmm under the pump for me are the following none would want to start poorly next year.

Caddy, Parker, McIntosh Short, Castagna, Aarts.  To a lesser degree Rioli, Pickett, Miller, Martyn, RCD, Cumberland, Nyuon and Ross.
