Troy Taylor

[mcuzzy]

Apparently he is starting to get a little more comfortable at Punt road these days and seems to get along with lots of the young guys more than he used to.

Got a feeling he might just turn out to be a pretty loyal player for us, hopefully he doesn't get too home sick (must be hard).

Dimma seems to have lots of faith in the kid which is promising!

I'll look to see if any have been posted on the RFC page, surely there would have been a player raging after yesterday.

edit: nope, looks like their privacy hasn't been invaded

That's great if true because he is an super talented footballers, just curious where you heard this?
He has had me worried with the things we have heard about him struggling, that really was to be expected and sitting on the sidelines injured really wouldn't have helped him.

I was actually considering starting a thread about TT...

For those of you closer to things than others, where is he at?
Did he play for Coborg seniors or 2nds on Saturday? Is he fit? Is he showing some form?

After getting a sniff of it for 2 games earlier this year I was hoping he would be ready for some more minutes for the Tigers by now...

 

[mcuzzy]

shame he got badly injured in his first bloody game, that was a major setback both mentally and physically for him

 

[Mario Speedwagon]

Get it right Richmond. Make he most of it Troy, because you're a star in the making. Don't end up **** knows where, 30 years-old washed- up and full of regret.

Sorry if already mentioned in another thread, but what's the go with his court case? Has that been heard yet?

Is great to hear he's enjoying Melbourne a bit better. Now he's a bit more settled, once he gets through the winter and gets to tear it up over the Melbourne spring/summer he won't want to go anywhere....

Should be in the starting 22 at the start of next year.

is he fit enough to try and sneak in a game this year?

Form memory, he has to face a judge some time around mid August.

Played seniors at Coburg last weekend, so another game or two and you'd imagine he'd be ready to go if DH wants him.

 

[richoatthedisco]

He won't play this week but I wouldn't be surprised to see him any time after that.

 

[lovetheg]

Played in the seniors this week, was really impressed. Also very impressed with Browne, he is a good type who must be very very close. Morton was okay kicked 3. Hardwick was there with Vickery and Nason and Polo was there but nowhere near hardwick?

 

[mcuzzy]

Good to know we are developing some depth in the side (slowly)

 

[Danog]

Where'd you hear this from, cuz?

 

[mcuzzy]

it's not even an 'inside source' really

just someone who gets to spend more time observing the players because he is a tiger fan living near punt road.

Polo ?

Would love to see this guy come on over the next couple of years. Too much talent to go to waste. I keep thinking of a couple of goals he's kicked, where he got the ball to boot so damn quick and just slotted it. That shows class in a small forward - and he's not even that small!

If we get his head right, He will be very hard to match up on. Espicially when we have Griffiths, Riewoldt Astbury and Post kicking goals up there.

met taylor.gus.collins and griffiths at the airport about a month ago waiting inline to go through the scanners at melbourne airport & spent about 10 minutes chatting to the boys.

they all seemed fine & chatty except troy & i actually asked him how he was going & if he has gotten used to melbourne

before he could answer griff replied by saying exact words were , he's a pussy reakons its too cold................and troy had his hands in his sleeves
then replied yeah ok gettin used to it.

but the boys were real friendly & in good spirits, but troy is not small he could actually play as a mobile kpp similar to brenan of brisbane
but god he is skinny !

 

[mcuzzy]

lol would suck livin up there in the heat then coming to 4 seasons a day melbourne

he is the same height as lids, unfortunately as you said, he isn't very strong

 

[Bojangles17]

man, give the kid some time, hasn't even been in the system 12mths, Tambling and edwards are tanks now, remember them both in first season, looked like they both just came off the set of Young Talent Time
