How'd the Hunt experiment go Halfstep? About as well as when you brought back Morris? Funny that... :shh


...and of course we don't dare drop the stinking "big fish" that cost us pick 6  & 750k.....#standards #appaerancesbeforeresults

Thats right blame a young kid like Stengle for the loss and drop him :banghead. I can't believe Lloyd keeps getting a game.The biggest blugger out there and selfish and doesn't even kick goals.Elton should have come in after his good game last week give as another target.

"Oh look this group got us into the top 4 and we're not going to make wholesale changes after one bad performance....we have every confidence it'll be a quick bounce..."

Lloyd must've found some incriminating photos after the Sydney match....

The Tigers expect Dylan Grimes to take on Brisbane on Sunday despite the key defender being concussed in an incident that saw Tim Membrey suspended.

Miles and Grimes both playing according to Dimma.



Hardwick has injected some grunt into his engine room to combat Zorko and company, with contested-ball specialist Anthony Miles to play only his third game of the season after blistering VFL form.

Hardwick also confirmed Dylan Grimes will play against the Lions after overcoming a heavy knock sustained in an incident that saw St Kilda’s Tim Membrey receive a two-match suspension.

I just relieved that Lloyd has finally been dropped. Been exceptionally disappointing for a number of weeks

No surprise with the others

And like you a liitel perplexed by Broad a fortnight ago agoant the Essendon he was average and that's probably beijg generous

I know he hasn't shown much in his few AFL games for us so far but Townsend has been in fantastic form all year. If you are looking for hardness look no further.

Yeah but he was dreadful with ball in hand.

Post by: Diocletian on July 14, 2017, 05:50:59 PM
Haha ...right...and yet Prestia retains his spot....seriously, if that's why he was dropped then there's at least half-a-dozen who should've gone before him....

Surprised Bolton not recalled. Glad Miles recalled. Interesting to see where Broad will play. Agree with comment that there were numerous players whose disposal was no better than Menadue's last week including Prestia.

Totally agree poor move by coaching panel.

Post by: Lozza on July 14, 2017, 06:47:46 PM
Can't believe they would drop Menadue, just seemed to be gaining confidence and they do that when at least half a dozen players at least more deserved to get dropped. Maybe it's team balance but yet again another baffling selection move.

Actually not surprised at all that he's been dropped

Still havent watched the replay but at the game from my seat I thought he was poor.

Throw in the fact he wasn't at the player sponsor dinner Tuesday because he was crook, then again no surprise

Post by: tony_montana on July 14, 2017, 07:44:41 PM
The only reason menadue should've lost his place is bc of illness

Agreed...
His last 3 weeks imo have been his best for the club.

Lloyd's not playing in the VFL today. So he's the 23rd spare man for tomorrow.
