Hopper has his knee strapped up like he has been biten by a great white.
How the *smile* is he ready??

Are we relying on the same medical opinion that said Juddy was ok to come back on?

 

[Tigga94]

Can’t keep gifting Dow games. Hasn’t performed well at all. To weak, slow and no ticker. Sonsie would be better on ball all game.

Its actually quite smart. This way, when he does injure his knee again we will be able to send him straight back out, without having to waste time bandaging him up.

yeah we should get an extra few k's out of him. If my old man was still around he could patch anything up with a wire twitch.

I'm with this.... indeed I seem to recall (mistakenly?) that he played well in the pre-season game against Melbourne and held his own against the much lauded Melbourne ruck.

Out: Short, Dow, TBC
IN: Hopper, Grimes, Naismith

I get the thought process and in terms of this one game it makes some sense but I get the feeling we are more likely to pick Ryan than Naismith as it seems to be more in line with the development thinking. There is an argument to pick both actually because Melbourne's 2nd ruck is Van Rooyen and Naismith would give us an advantage over him.

If old mate Ryan Sampson can't get a gig this week, with 123 players out and kicking four, it will speak volumes about where the club thinks he is at.

Big week coming up.

 

[Tigers of Old]

The great news is we have enough players available to field a team.

Are you sure that is a good thing?

We are going to have only 7 AFL listed players available for the VFL again I heard.

Rubbish call.

Do you expect him to take Shorts place off half back?

LOL. We can't kick a score, we have no tall forwards, Kosi is struggling. We are in desperate need of someone to stand up in the forward line.

When do the excuses stop and Ryan actually does something at AFL level besides get hyped to the hilt?

If not now, when?

He has to get picked first.

He has held up his end of the bargain by kicking 8 goals in 2 games.

Bit hard to kick goals by siting in N23 of the Shane Warne Stand.

BTW you're not Kane Cornes are you?

If he doesn't get picked, will tell you a lot about where the club thinks he is at.

We have so many injuries and have STILL preferred a 26-year-old ex Melbourne Storm player ahead of him with Kosi who can't get near it.

There is a spot there. If Yze and Co are going to use him now, when?

 

[yo_eddy]

We need to find a way to physically work Gawn over and break even with their midfield. Not easy even at full strength.

Wouldn't mind seeing Naismith and Nank working in tandem.

Guaranteed to get a game when we only have 23 AFL listed players available.

Steady on, it's only Monday.

Agree
Ryan can wait another week

Duct tape & cable ties, the answer to all handyman's prayers.

Oh & don't forget your silicone gun.

Hopefully this week. There is no logic why he wouldnt.

End The Farce.
