Agree with calls to bring in Cumberland and Sonsie.

Himmelberg solid, Henry meh, but there's just something special about seeing a small jump into a ruckmans head

I rekn it doesn’t look as impressive because he marks it on his chest and lands on his feet. Always thought the great speccys, the ball gets marked at its peak with arms extended and the player lands on his back.

I get ya

Jack used to get me going back in the day

Obviously though it's better for the player to land on his feet. I remember reading about Moorcroft basically stuffing his hip for life in his mark, was never the same again.

Broad 30 next month, KMac just turned 29.

Priority for me would be Broady but honestly if either of them was offered a decent pay day to go I couldn't blame them and they won't be on big coin to stay here.

Tribunal chair Jeff Gleeson said after the decision: “As for the Pickett example, there appeared to be a slightly more glancing aspect to the impact than occurred here.”

McAdam rubbed out. So, he'll miss our game.

Team Tips:

Many Tigers fans were surprised Noah Cumberland wasn’t selected for last week’s match, with coach Damien Hardwick post-game suggesting he played a similar role for the team to Dustin Martin inside 50 and was working on adding a few more strings to his bow. There’s a good chance Cumberland comes in for Saturday’s match against Adelaide, possibly at the expense of Rhyan Mansell. There’ll be an injury watch this week on Robbie Tarrant (hip) and Ivan Soldo (foot) and whether they’ll be available to play, while the Tigers will no doubt have a close look at mature-age recruit Tylar Young, who was close to playing last week.
