Player Watch #44: Tyson Stengle [TIGER NO MORE!]

[parmy2balmey]

think we will have to send our 4th along with wombo to get the 3rd back

 

[tugga]

Traded for pick 68



lol

 

[PHX]

Uncontracted player so could've just walked into the draft if we didn't trade him.

Considering that, 68 is about right.

 

[tugga]

Yeah fair call.
We've just basically lost half our VFL side though.

 

[Sir_Loin]

Good player IMO but was just never going to get a game unless we had significant forward line injuries.

The game against port over there was the highlight for me. Like him as a player.

Probably the most consistent small forward we had at VFL but his lack of speed compared to others really hurt him given our AFL forward line relies heavily on leg speed for our smalls.

Good lead and mark for his size. Good footy brain but yes agree his lack of speed is what kept him out of the seniors

 

[tugga]

We still have Bolton and Baker

 

[Tiger2709]

Yeah fair call.
We've just basically lost half our VFL side though.

All players that struggled to ever be good enough for the firsts so really no loss, we now need to fill those spots with players better than those that have moved on.

 

[RFCGloryJC]

Best wishes to Tyson.
He never really made the grade.
It sounds like, reading Neil Balme's statement, they made a pay offer but Adelaide's was better.
No great loss.
More importantly, I am pleased we re-signed Callum Moore and I felt he should have played in the finals.

 

[Infamy]

Probably need to change the title on this one to "Tiger No More!"

 

[TJASTA]

dud delist

 

[PGTiger]

We offered him a contract but he decided to leave - dead to me now.

 

[Dr Tigris]

Good luck Tyson. Hope you're practicing the Power Stance.

Pity he knocked back our offer. But hard to see him breaking into the current forward line.

Great job by Wombat to go from rookie list to being seriously wanted by Adelaide.

 

[Sir_Rancelot]

We still have Bolton and Baker

I'm not sure about Baker, I think Stengle offered more.

All the best, Wombo.

 

[captain cotch 9]

Adelaide have had great success trading for Tigers players........

 

[sante]

I don’t think he’s AFL standard. Never understood the hype on him throughout the year

 

[RunningBounce]

Good luck to him. Played some very good footy at VFL level. I would have given him BOG in a few games, which is bloody hard to win from the forward pocket.

Would have liked to see him more of him in the AFL to see if he could make the step up. I hope he can. Just not against us.

 

[RunningBounce]

All players that struggled to ever be good enough for the firsts so really no loss, we now need to fill those spots with players better than those that have moved on.

That's the art of list management, I guess. I reckon it's now on that group of say BEllis, Towner, Markov, Menadue, Drummond, Garthwaite and Bolton to go past the level Miles, Lloyd, CEllis and Stengle were at in 2018, and push their way into seniors where the others didn't.

(Naish, Balta, Baker and CCJ probably have another season of grace before it's on them, IMO.)

Still, I'll miss those blokes who've left running around Punt Rd Oval, even if they never really cemented themselves in the firsts.

 

[Tiger_Of_Old]

He'll feel like he never left Tigerland during the crows pre-season.

 

[TigerTime_89]

All the best Tyson.
But you wanted to leave, will be booed.

 

[Frustrated Tiger]

Meh...close thread.

 

[JAKLAUGHING]

Eats..roots and leaves...The Wombat!

 

[RichoLedio]

Reckon he'll have a solid career at the crows
