2019 Premiers
- Thread starter Ian4
- Start date
Next year the premiers will bring Alex Rance into their team. Better also add Sydney Stack and much more.
There will be a few other players, as you suggest, knocking on the door in 2020.
As usually happens, there will be changes to the 22 selected for the grand final and premiership defence in 2020.
Rance, Stackman, CCJ, Balta, Ross, Egg, Aarts ... to name a handful
What a great list RFC has developed in recent times and with some astute drafting/recruiting it can only get better.
Great succession planning. Who are are talents scouts and where have they been in the years prior to our 2017 flag? We have the Midas Touch atm.....Gawd I love being a tiger!
We need to focus on getting ourselves another Suns player. We got Prestia for 2017, nobody in 2018 and Lynchy for 2019. There is a pattern here...…..
What a day , others can say it was boring,thats their problem,
as a supporter it was kind of nice to be totally relaxed, sitting back , taking it all in , enjoying the moment stress free
2017 first
2018 third
2019 first
this is turning out to be some era, and i dont think this team is finished yet .

not finished yet. the young stars who missed out will be eager to get their chance.
So will Rance.
And the old guard of Cotch and co have seen it disappear in 18 and will be fighting hard to build a legacy before they retire.
not done yet

I reckon we had he dreaded hangover last year. Went too hard too early trying to prove that we didn’t, and fell in a heap towards the end of the year.
Barring a disaster injury wise, I reckon back to back is almost a formality.

The club meticulously planned this premiership to the last second. The resting of players and ensuring they were right for when it counted most. They primed themselves perfectly resulting in a clinical execution of GWS. In fact I don’t think it would’ve mattered who we played yesterday - after being there I’m convinced it was always going to be a tiger premiership.
Not quite 2017, that can never be replicated , however another outstanding day thanks to the RFC , was lucky enough to spend the morning and the game with my son and punt road enders, then a little tour of Swan st, bout to hit the steeets again and wander back to the collesium of Punt Road Oval , Go you mighty Tiges
Think there’s at least one more flag in this group, especially when Rance, Stack, Ross & an emerging Coleman-Jones are added to the mix.
So good just to enjoy that last quarter and a bit at the game. Feel so lucky - seen seven straight tigers wins live in the finals. (AFL screwed me and couldn’t get prelim tickets last year and flew up to brissy this year). No way this team is done yet.
We may struggle though next year having to fit in Rance, stack, graham and Ross and getting Pickett a full preseason.
