Goodbye Mabior Chol

[Ripplestick]

Media reports we will rookie Chol and Townsend should no one else draft them.

Where?
I’ve seen nothing about their futures.

 

[bullus_hit]

Williams?

More reason to draft Bailey Williams

The Jack Riewoldt doppelganger?

Haven't we got Lynch?

Think you nailed it with the first comment, by the time Jack is ready to hang up the boots Williams will be ready to fill the void.

Sounds good bull. After so many years of screaming for a real 2nd tall forward, we got Lynch, but now I'm desperate for a 2nd (or future 1st) ruckman.

Well obviously the Tigers expected more because he's been delisted. It will be interesting to see if any other club sees any more in him or whether we get to re-rookie him.

Everyone says that it takes years for big guys to develop.

Be that as it may you probably also need to have a determined attitude to improve.

The fact that the club is going to delist him and rookie him again if no other club picks him up indicates two things to me.

The first is the club isn't convinced that he has the aptitude for the game, or secondly that he doesn't work hard enough at improving himself.

Either way it seems like the club is putting the ball in his court to prove them wrong

Is this a Fact though ??

Is this a Fact though ??

As much of a fact as can be drawn from the article on the AFL site which said he was going to be delisted and re-rookied if he didn't get picked up

 

[Dyer'ere]

My understanding is that Mabs is no certainty to get another gig with RFC. He has to get a few things right before we would. Application stuff.

 

[The Don]

I wonder if Mabs snuck back in by the skin of his teeth .... and whether it makes any difference to him.

 

[craig]

Wasted pick re drafting him imo.

Wouldve preferred they made a move to get Williams as Bully said, only because even if Williams has speculation about him he will still be a bigger shot of making it at AFL than Chol.

Allir Allir is the only Sudanse kid that has really shown that he can actually read the game ahead of him.

 

[Letsroar]

We had to redraft him after going 4 mids. He has potential need to see the required effort this year

 

[Tigers of Old]

I'm happy he got another crack. Hopefully this is the spark that he needs. Eat em Alive Marbs.

 

[Rfc4Ever]

Had plenty of opportunity.

If he can't apply himself by now it is a wasted pick.

 

[year of the tiger]

Don’t think it’s an issue of application - dam hard to develop talls - reckon he is a good backup for another year

 

[T-Shirt Tommy]

Last chance saloon.

 

[UKTiger]

Needs to apply himself if he wants to make a career in AFL and so far hasn't managed that so he needs to work hard this season otherwise he will be out.

 

[caesar]

Happy Mabs has been re-rookied our biggest need is a mobile ruckman. Yeah I know most have written him off but i don't mind us giving him one last crack.

 

[turk-d-tiger]

I'm happy to give him another 2 years
