Tobias Thoolen Future

[Dave The Man]

Can't really see a future for him past the Rookie List. Done nothing in the Pre-Season. Has played as a Tall Forward and Defender. Did nothing in Defense but he Did kick a few goals but goes missing too much in games and does look lost.

Was picked ahead of Geartner and Gugliotta so they must see something in him.

Your thoughts

geartner and Gugliotta are more then likely also no good

We choose thoolen as he responded to being given the arse, he is no good but at least he responded.

Give him at least half a season before writing him off. Not all rookies succeed and not all rookies make an immediate impact.

At this time exactly 12 months ago we were saying the same things about Macaffer. Luckily the club doesnt listen to us armchair experts.

I am not Writing Thoolen off but I am still stuggling to see what they see in him

FFS it's not even round 1 in the VFL where he has to start.

'Tobias Thoolen' sounds more like a Charles Dickens' character than an AFL player. I can't see him making it with this name. If someone told me I was to man up Tobias Thoolen, I don't think the name itself would strike fear in my heart. I would be too pre-occupied thinking how I could use the name as inspiration for a constant verbal attack on him during the game.

Tobias Thoolen's future ... "sifting through the classifieds and looking for new employment"

He showed me enough in the Tiges practice match to suggest he's worth the wait until he grows into his body. Two very tasty goals. I was skeptical unitl that match and Brownie gave him raps for that game as well.


45. Toby Thoolen (3k, 3h, 2m, 2g, 3t): Toby played at full back and centre half-back and his intensity and urgency to the ball was fantastic. He has stepped up from last year.

I have the utmost respect for your football intellect but you're wrong on this one. Tobias is a developing big man with a big future ahead of him. Tall, athletic and moderately conservative, he insists on organic produce and free range eggs. We only want good people at Collingwood.

Gun, future captain.
