Reckon Clarko will play TT across half back and give him a set role to focus on. Has the attributes to be an elite hbf, tough, good mark, excellent hands/ skills and can tackle.
Just think he needs a clearly Defined role to get him going and build up his confidence. Will end up a utility player.

I’ve thought this for a while,
TT also has the potential to have a massive preseason under Clarko and walk out in ‘23 as our best mid.
One to watch

Shaun Burgoyne. That is all.

Would just like to acknowledge how hard Tarryn appears to be working right now.
Im sure there are others out there (like Powelly & Will for example) who are likely also working their backsides off, but perhaps just don’t have the same social media presence. But TT became somewhat of a whipping boy around these parts for a fair chunk of the 2022 season & I hope the hate is just fuelling the fire that appears to be burning right now.

As a side note, training along Mitch Creek can only be a great thing for Tarryn. He’s one of the hardest workers/trainers in Australian sport. A true pro who leaves every ounce of his being out there on the court. I was spewing when the 36ers lost him a few seasons back, but am stoked to see him working hard along side our boy TT this off season.

He's putting some serious work in. Very exciting to see.
 
Tarryn would be itching to make amends for a very disappointing year. Great to see he is putting in the work to make this happen.

He may have gotten a little ahead of himself, after his form in the back half of 2021 - he, like most of us around here probably assumed the natural progression would see him become a star in 2022.

Injury & personal issues certainly played a part in his poor year.
I think the mental fatigue of it all took its toll towards the end of the season, which is why we told him to play the rest of the year out in the VFL & come back fresh & ready for a big 2023.

I can’t wait to see what he can produce with improved fitness, strength & better application on the track.
If Clarko can get the best out of him… Look out!!

I hope he can become Clarko's Burgoyne at NMFC

Spot on. Just listening to Cripps the other night gives you good insight into the mental fatigue of poor seasons. Sh!t ton of work to do but I think we'll see improvement in nearly all players just on the back of some mental fatigue being lifted from a new start.

What happened with the charges against Creek? I was disappointed when I heard about it, but then it seems to have gone away?

Yes and he is contracted and another who didn't do much last season.
So happy if he stays or he leaves we get a top ten pick. The old either or.

Looks like we may have 3 top ten picks this yr.

The only issue with having this good a draft hand is...we don't have a recruitment team.
