Matty White

[Tiger_Of_Old]

All the focus has been on Newman and his upcoming first final but we should also spare a thought for Matty White who up until this year was one of the whipping boys.He,s turned himself around to be our version of the Super Sub and for him to miss the first final would be devastating if we go out in the first week.Lets hope the boys can at least give matty a fighting chance to play in the 2nd week.

He'll be cherry ripe for Sydney in week 2

He'll be cherry ripe for Sydney in week 2

Lets hope your right on both counts.

With a bit of luck he will be ready for next week, Saturday night at the MCG vs the hawks

 

[rfctigerarmy]

I really hope he can play a finals match this season. I reckon is so disappointing that he's missing this week being a Richmond supporter. He knows the pain.

Hopefully he can get up for next week provided we make it there.

Don't worry boys, theres a Norm Smith with Matts name on it coming up, first sub to win it

 

[a_fighting_fury]

If he doesn't get up for these finals, he'll be cherry ripe for next seasons!

Go Tiges!

 

[beetlejuice]

I feel really sorry for him. He's busted his plus 3 other arses I reckon to get himself into our best 22 and to be the one missing out would be shattering.
I hope he's put it on his team mates to go out and win so he gets a final next week.

 

[prodigy]

If fit and if we win, he is a walk-up start next week. Unlucky to whoever is in his way.

Don't go getting ahead of yourself... Hawks are no certainties.

I am shattered for Matt. He thoroughly deserved a spot in this finals team and I hope the boys win for him.

Having said that, people saying he's a certainty for week two are kidding themselves. How often do blokes just miss a single game with a hamstring "strain" (not tightness)? Sadly I couldn't see him getting back until GF weekend (standard 3 weeks out for a hamstring) and I think even the most optimistic of us don't realistically think we're getting that far.

Matt's season is over, unfortunately.

 

[Tigersman]

We're weaker without him. Didn't think I'd be saying that two years ago. All credit to the bloke. Hope he gets a finals game this year.

 

[Kapital city TIGER]

Would've really liked his pace v Carlton
Super sub
Stick him to Bolton next week, or Cyril if they get up

 

[bigange]

Has had a super year and we will sorely miss his run on Sunday, even more so if they shut down Ellis.

Hopefully he can get up for next week.

 

[Stevi_Tigers]

feel sorry for matty turned his career around and will surely get a new contract now hope he can get fit for week 2 of finals but make no mistake we will miss his leg speed

 

[NUFC Tiger]

The only other downer for this week (apart from Foley missing) is White missing out. His form deserves a finals game. Hopefully he is good to go for next week!
