Unfortunately it was a question not a statement mate. Sorry to break it to you

lol oh ok.

 

[jokershoppe]

Is this the dude that cant get a game at 2 clubs now

shit close the war chest.

 

[Tiges1229]

That was right below me, and I reckon I was the first to stand up and yell my support. it was huge, but I'm pretty sure that he hit him in the head, even if it was a hip and shoulder and all tucked in.

That was a great game .

That was a great game .

Best barracking day of my life. Was only 8 and 10 for 80' and 82'.

 

[Nostradumbass]

Unfortunately these days you just cant run thru these players any more. What Moons said was fine in his era, but these days you simply cant iron out players.

You can work them over though, it all adds up.

same as me mate Haveto agree with you that game always sticks in my memory because of the fact we were so far behind and still won.

Knights became a Tiger legend that day, carved them up.

I've said it many times, he's massively underrated.

Essendon fans rate him highly, on and off the field

Essendon are just a passing joke these days. Lovely area though.

Was about to hurl abuse at you for calling Chris Knights a Tiger legend then i remembered your talking about Matty Knights

Chris was a good player befor injury

I don't know how old you are but watch the game if you haven't seen it. Knights destroyed them. Turner's hit as has been mentioned was epic.

Jeez, 20 pages. What have I missed?

Nothing.

 

[SumTingWong]

Jeez, 20 pages. What have I missed?

 

[Rodney Dangerfield]

Why? Because he didn't perform after playing one game in the last nine including zero in the last six because of injury? Strange.

Just a feeling.

Real estate is rediculous

I look forward to one hell of a multi quote

Yup. I wouldn't live there myself, trams shit me and I like being near the beach but there's some very nice houses and old terraces out that way.

 

[UpTheGuts]

Back on it...

Bennell
Lamb
Treloar
Ruckman
Danger
Yarran
Stevie J
JOM

is the linked-to/ wish for list, I think

 

[TigerRoar2012]

Could we trade our 15 & 16 #1 picks for Bennell and JOM?
Bennell is a massive risk off the field but is a freakish tallent that we havent had at our club for years!!! He is worth our 1st pick this year.
JOM has big injury problems but has been compared to Judd. A good inside player and just as good outside. He is worth our 1st pick next year when its a better draft.
IMO it isnt impossible..
Espicially if JOM wants to come to Vic to expand his property portfolio....

This would be the greatest trade ever for us. Might as well throw in Swallow, Ablett and Lynch in there too.
Would love it - but would never happen.

Hah, nup, can't be arsed.

I reckon we keep pushing on Treloar, knowing Collingwood will still likely get their man. Make them pay as much as we can. Then at the last minute we turn around and offer our first-rounder to help them get him.

How about this:
Our 2016 first and 2015 third pick for Witts and Collingwood's 2nd pick. Gives us a 209cm, 113kg beast of a 23-year-old aching to play first ruck.
Collingwood's 2nd-rounder for Yarran.
Our 2015 first pick for Bennell and Saad. Might have to throw in our second-rounder.
Brando for Carlisle. Or our second-rounder for Mitch Brown from West Coast.

For me its not the last game , unfortunately these seem to be regular stats for griff for one reason or another.

I'd count my losses and trade him, i just can't see improvement.

Ty is looking better in the same position, and we need a genuine ruck. Let him blossom elsewhere.
