G'day guys and girls,
Firstly I am not a Tiger fan (Hawks supporter) but my old man is so basically watch every game and follow them very closely..
Your boys definately showed alot more improvement in this one year under Hardwick then in the whole 5 yrs under Terry's reign! Anyway, Just looking at players that got delisted and are still young enough to fit in with your model, I think Chris Johnson, former melbourne and carlton player who is 24 could be a real asset 4 u guys in defence.
This will allow you to push morton (lets face it the bloke is a 40 plus goals a year player) back upto the forward line to replace collins and Johnson who has a neat kick on him to go down back!
Then with either Houli or grig playing in the middle/wing/possible half back you guys begin to have a pretty quick team on your hands...
Obviously yoyr team is in rebuilding stage but i feel that picking up a few young matured minds (also beau msuton could be an option) who have been in the system can greatly improve your position for many years to come.
Good luck in 2011 and remember its not ur ladder position that counts next year its the experience your young players are learning and how the group begins to understand the new game plan and each others individual strengths that will set you up for a big 2012.
Would love to hear your thoughts on this.
