Ross had one of the best debuts I've ever seen from a Tiger in that win vs Poort last year.

And what a great win it was. Coming off losses to the Pies and GWS, and missing Dusty, Chimp, Riewoldt and Rance it helped get our season back on track.
Lets not put too much pressure on him. Yes he had a couple of fantastic games but lets not forget he got dropped last year after a couple of really average games (the last games he played).
His season was a good one, maybe he just ran out of steam, it was a shame he got hobbled by Fyfe his game against the Eagles in that memorable win was probably one of his lesser games and i think his last.
Wasnt his best day had a few bad turnovers but his debut season was a very good one.

I'd say he played well in his first game back. After missing 12 games he had 21 disposals, 7 tackles and 6 clearances. His second game before he was dropped he had 11 possessions, but only had 55% game time.
Rozee looks a star. Ross is more a role player - not comparable really and would be pleasantly surprised if Ross had anywhere near the career of Rozee.
Ross looked so good from game 1 until he did he ankle. I just hope we have not "over coached" him, playing him of half back and suppressing his instinctive play. With Martin not playing tonight even more reason to throw him in the middle and just say go for it son! Dont play him of a half back flank - we have several others that can play that role well.
Looks to be a dead set inside mid to me, but who am I to question the powers that be.
Correct, Rozee already showing all the signs of being a freakish player.
However still think you will end up being pleasantly surprised when Ross becomes a version of Cotch.
Rozee could also be in danger of becoming the next Chad Wingard also with all the adoration and smoke being blown up his arse in Radelaide.
The consensus from the game day thread was that he was poor, but I didn't think he looked too bad first up.
All of his best games were before his foot injury. He hasn't got near that level after the injury. Hopefully the injury is not an issue for him going because I'd love to see him get back to the form of his first few games. He was bloody brilliant before the injury.
As I said on the game day thread, I reckon he's dropped too much weight. He's not as powerful as he was last year.
