There were mainland tigers. Certainly one was spotted regularly around East Fremantle in the mid nineteen nineties.

beats playing hard, contested footy.........
i loved the article. call it nostalgia but its nice not to forget all those who played. i bumped into mark austin the other day and said i remember him from his blues days. he saw himself more as a dog but its still kinda coolCouldn't really understand the point of this story. Seemed to have none. It was like jumping in your car and driving to your neighbours house.
apparently didnt take care of himself during offseason. i love a drink but when your afl career is on the line be disciplined for 3 months!!

I wonder what Holman is up to?
Be a good replacement for curnows role
With recent comments about a "few" that we have delisted, which may/should of remained on the list. We have actually moved on 40 players not 42 (Sheehan and Galucci, listed twice from delisting and redrafting, then delisted again)
Firstly, despite not being everyone's best 25, this is what was voted as a possible indication of what our best side would look like, before the start of the season
Consensus 2018 Lineup
FB: Ciaran Byrne (98) - Liam Jones (156) - Lachie Plowman (161)
HB: Caleb Marchbank (164) - Jacob Weitering (156) - Kade Simpson (150)
C: Sam Petrevski-Seton (175) - Ed Curnow (157) - Marc Murphy (175)
HF: Charlie Curnow (150) - Levi Casboult (108) - Jarrod Pickett (143)
FF: Matthew Wright (119) - Harry McKay (101) - Jack Silvagni (135)
R: Matthew Kreuzer (181) - Patrick Cripps (183) - Matthew Kennedy (177)
I: Tom Williamson (76) - David Cuningham (67) - Zac Fisher (64) - Paddy Dow (67)
EMG: Darcy Lang (66) - Jarrod Garlett (39) - Aaron Mullett (19)
Players in bold, have missed some or all games due to injury, not to mention guys like Rowe, ASOS etc that may not have been selected as best 25, but we could all concede would be current reliable fallback selections
Now this is the list of the delisted 24 out of 40 list changes over the last 3 years. Doubt anyone would have any of these guys as best 25, at the start of this year, if they were on our list
Blaine Boekhorst (delisted)
Dylan Buckley (delisted)
Matthew Dick (delisted)
Tom Fields (delisted)
Jayden Foster (delisted)
Andrew Gallucci (delisted)
Cameron Giles (delisted)
Billy Gowers (delisted)
Nick Holman (delisted)
Kristian Jaksch (delisted)
Blaine Johnson (delisted)
Rhys Palmer (delisted)
Fraser Russell (delisted)
Ciaran Sheehan (delisted)
Billie Smedts (delisted)
Clem Smith (delisted)
Liam Sumner (delisted)
Jason Tutt (delisted)
Dillon Viojo-Rainbow (delisted)
Brad Walsh (delisted)
Robbie Warnock (delisted)
Matthew Watson (delisted)
Mark Whiley (delisted)
Simon White (delisted)
IMO, I feel confident SOS understands what talent, is required for us to be a successful side again

So 6 traded for value ...
Gibbs, Tuohy and Henderson still playing and best 22 at their new clubs, Bell still playing not best 22, and Yarran and Menzel delisted.
And 3 delisted free agents in Holman, Gowers and Buckley.
The vast majority retired / finished as far as AFL level footy goes. No other club took Boekhorst, etc.
Already 3 players acquired and delisted in Palmer, Smedts and Gorringe.
Agree with your earlier post that SOS understands what we need. It is an incremental improvement in the quality of our list:
1 top end though the draft (Weitering, Charlie, Harry, SPS, Fisher, Dow, O’Brien)
2 other draft picks to improve on players 20-35 on our list (Cuningham, Jack, Macreadie, Polson, Williamson, Kerr, TDK, Schumacher, Garlett). It takes little imagination to see they are upgrades on who retired / we let go (in order, I say Boekhorst, Jaksch, Giles, Ellard, White, Everritt, Gorringe, Buckley, Sumner). Williamson and Jack have jumped up into the 22.
3 targeted trades (Kennedy and Lang) who address / will address our needs.
4 DFAs so Wright and Mullett currently. Gorringe didn’t work.
4 depth players (some of whom we are currently forced to play due to injuries) O’Shea, Mullett, Shaw, Lobbe. Last year it was Smedts, and Palmer got just the 1 match.
It’s a work in progress.
Agreed, no recruiter gets it right every time, but it is poles apart from Rogers/Hughes

That incremental improvement is the bedrock of our depth and future strength. We always had talent at the top end..just the middle band of players really fell away alarmingly.
