The Taz Interview

[rose jam]

Just finished on "On the Couch". Was pretty good. Wow, I remember his interviews in his days around 2002-2005 and he always had this hate face on when he was talking to the media, he just didn't trust them. Now, there's a guy who's just comfortable. And why wouldn't you be with massive freaking guns like his!

Any chance this will be uploaded somewhere?

He was good tonight, you can see why Mick says he has matured a lot, to take some of the shit questions Mike and Gerard ask him, and basically answer them with a straight bat was great.

Roosy was the only one asking him decent questions.

But god, you really don't get an appreciation for how highly Tarrant is rated as a defender until you hear people outside the club talk about him, Healy saying he was one of the most under rated players in the whole AFL while at Freo, big wrap.

He is a massive get for us, and he talked about his "meeting over coffee" with Mick which lead to his "coming home", and also stated clearly that he never really entertained the offer from Hawthorn.

Taz will play in a premiership at Collingwood, be it this year or next, he is a massive "get" for us. (Especially with Brown going down).

It's incredible how much more mature and relaxed he is these days.

He's a different man.

I recorded it, encoding it right now, will then upload it to youtube.

Loved how every answer was team orientated.

Said he'll play wherever team needs dictates, also will play on whoever coach wants and doesn't make "requests".

Finally said he'll play as long as the club want him and he understands if they choose to get games into younger players.

Attitude A++

Much better speaker now compared to the "YEAAAH NAAAAH" days.

Anyone see Ablett's interview on One Week at a a Time?...You know?

Yes this was my take on it.

He was quietly spoken, very humble and completely team oriented.

No wonder MM thought he was completely worth the punt after their 'sit down for coffee' together.

 

[Cousin of Daicos]

If Collingwood wins the flag this year and he plays in it, he'll be MORE than happy to retire once his contract finishes next year.

Summed it up perfectly.

It's still a warm fuzzy feeling having Taz back.

Bit different to Sam Gilbert.

"Sam, we need you to play forward for us"

"I want to play back though"

" OK, you can play back then"

Lol!!

EDIT: Mars was too quick for me... but i'll leave it here as i wanted to test out my new satallite card neway. Lemme know what you guys think. No analog capture...

 

[Forgotten Legend]

Shows his massive maturity step he gained going over to Freo and getting a reality check. Really an amazing person and player and shows he is completely focused on Collingwood and would step down willingly if asked too by the coaching staff.

Hopefully he wins a Premiership or two with us.

 

[WakeUpPies]

God dammit I washed my pants just yesterday.

 

[tek87]

If freo dont win the flag i wouldn't begrudge Taz one. I was hoping one of my favourites Paul Medhurst would. such a shame he retired. he was so gifted

 

[Shellz]

Aww he is all grown up!!!!

Lol!!

I laughed hard on hearing that.

Lyon basically forced Ball out of the side, standing to his demand that he play when and where Lyon thought best. He made a big deal about it privately and publicly, yet Gilbert says he feels a little uncomfortable up forward and Ross gives him a hug and bus fare home to the backline....LMFAO ...bit hypocritical.

Gilbert can't stand the pressure of taking some heat off Reiwoldt and being expected to kick goals, while constantly missing. If Cloke buckled under pressure like that he would be the laughing stock of other players, oppo supporters and Collingwood supporters alike for decades.

So much for this feted Saints Footy, the bubble?....looks like it's burst.

 

[Pie eyed]

Anyone else think he looks like Eric Banner?

Cash no...no cash!
