Shane Edwards

[Scoop]

Looks a shell of his former shelf. His entire game is built around cutting in traffic, changing direction and moving like he's in the Matrix. You can't underestimate how much an ankle would set him back. Could be time to send him out to prepare for the slim chance of finals and more importantly, next year.

 

[tigerman]

Put him on ice. Wrap it up.

Yep, is 33 in a few months. An extended break, and his body will be good to have a big season next year.

 

[Dyer'ere]

If he wasn't concussed he'll play this week. He did look to be moving ok. Not exactly vintage Titch. It'll have to do for now.

 

[craig]

Has had a very interupted season.

Break will do him good

I hit my thumb about 2 months ago and it still hurts today.
These blokes arent machine's.
He hasn't recovered.
At least he fked over Bulters and Durrrrrsama this year. With Shane Edwards tackles.

Jeebus that seems like an eternity ago now.

Geez it’s been a s**t year.

Exactly that was only 3 months ago but feels like 3 years ago.
I still reckon that game we played our best.
We tackled and smashed them.
The umpires *smile* us that night

 

[Tigaman]

Looked ok but when the team aint firing as of the past he is just not getting opportunities to be the Titch of Olde. He aint the only one.

 

[Tigers of Old]

A couple of bright patches for Shedda that helped get us back in the game but he's still well below his best. Been a spluttering year for the champ.

True but looked better up forward after halftime. That’ll be his future.

 

[UKTiger]

Got better as the game wore on but looks like he is carrying an injury

Even allowing for injuries - the champ has been in major decline(due to age) this year - a mere shadow of his former brilliant self.
Doesn't appear he has the capacity to spend major periods of time on ball going forward. Dow is the future.
If he can pinch hit a couple of goals in the forward line each week next year - it will be great. An upgrade on Castagna.
He started his trade as a goalkicking forward - Looks like he'll finish his stellar career that way.

 

[MD Jazz]

He got a snickers at half time and went from Shank to Shed

 

[Dyer'ere]

Can't walk. Watches most of the game. Anybody got any insights?

Yeah he's had a very poor year. Was thinking how poor he's been recently. Can't remember one good game he had this year. He's had injuries but has he fallen off the cliff body wise? When's he contracted to?

Looks like it’s been the ankle that caused him to miss six Uber the course of the year, Harry. And Summa says it’s still a problem.

Uber? Summa? New dialect?

He cant be right and isn't, I don't think. There was one piece of play in the 3rd quarter v GWS where the ball bounced in front of him and he chased it down but the champ just totally looked like he was running up and down on the spot doing so. He then got hold of it and absolutely butchered it with a sore and tired effort after.

Whether or not he plays this week, that might tell you a bit about his health status.

 

[AngryAnt]

Simple as multiple injuries leading to lack of fitness and form. If he gets a good preseason let's see, always saw him as one of our most durable.

And let's be honest, the boys chucked in the towel about 8 weeks ago, Lions game excepted. They haven't been playing for dimma or anyone else since then.
