I know it's a bit early but,

Well done Tiv! Although a much maligned player, you have seemed to turn the corner. Great season to date and hope you put a big one in against the Bummers!
are you kidding, turned the corner!  he is still a clanger king, he is as undecisive as a as ever, ok he may have kicked a few goals, but he has cost us more!

the only plus thing is maybe some dumbarse team will want him in a trade at yrs end cos he wont be with us!

the most unworthy person to ever reach 150

Quite unfair in relation to his efforts this year. I get the feeling they've worked hard on his playing style over summer. This year after 5 games he's already performed half the 1%ers he achieved in the whole of the previous year and up near where he was in his first 2 seasons. He has only had 4 bounces this year, compared to 32 for the whole of the previous year. Maybe to straighten him up and stop running wide circles. Looks like when someone mentioned that Tivendale got a rude shock last year at the trade table, that he's seen the light and realised that time in footy is limited.

A confidence player, who is devastating at his best. Well done Tiv!

Cheers
 
As the old saying goes - you're only as good as your last game.

Although I have "rolled the eyeballs" on a number of occasions watching Tivva play, you can't dismiss that it is a great effort to play 150 for the tiges whilst putting up with all the feral bs week in/week out.....

The same people who bag these guys are the same guys who can't coherently tell you of a better alternative.

These guys are also the same nimrods who cheer Richo and Bowden having called for their heads multiple times over their respective careers.

Richo and Bowden have both come out better players having experienced all this bs and I hope Tivva is the same. Although I wouldn't blame him for walking out having raised his market value after a few better years in the yellow and black......
 
As long as I see those goals on the run and more nice marks and goals like I seen last week then keep playing.

I am not saying he is safe on the list but for the here and now as ling as he plays his part in the side, then thats all we can ask of him.

Congrats tivva. As far as i can see you've had one outstandingly mediocre (oxymoron?) year and several solid ones.
Good service from a decent player  :clap

X rated im not picking on them good on em for getting on PRE and having their say i just found the last bit particularly amusing thats all :hihi :hihi ;)
 
the real gregory *smile* is back his resurgence didnt last long did it.lets hope he lifts his game as im hoping for a 3rd rnd pick for him come draft time.
 
Claw,
I believe Tivva's job was to restrict Simon Goodwin, who before this week was one of the favourites for the Brownlow. And I think he did pretty well in restricting him. Certainly Goodwin did OK, but not near his better games of this year. Therefore, Tivva did quite well.

So much for you not posting, I knew that was never going to last.  He was a part of a winning team.  He has played moregood ones than average ones this season. Give him a rest and give us an extended rest from your crapola. And I concur with Shers comment.

Don't worry Claw. The Tiv will be firing those long left footed kicks into the forward fifty soon enough.
