I'm not sure how we expect to play finals when we are playing Aarts, Castagna and trying to nurse Edwards to 300 games?
Lots of great Tigers never made to 300 games, poor old Richo's body let him down 18 games short. Doesn't make him any less of a player.

That was the first qtr
Ran out of gas Gave us nothing for the next 3
It's the farewell tour. Still playing the old hits occasionally but not sure about the new stuff.
He’s lost his speed - that’s the main thing. Confidence has gone with it, plus goes to ground too easily
What happened to earning his spot??
Pity our 5 picks under 30 are running in the reserves and all our 1st rounders are hot dogs.

One nice pass tp pickett
Then nothing...no pressure acts..never at the fall of the ball...with Mjr giving us very little...and Aarts and George ( at least geprge gets the ball..the others barely do ) ...how on earth are we expecting to win ???
But as much as we love Shedda he should be sub from now on

I’ve been suggesting for much of the season that he be played as sub.
The reason is to allow him (nurse him) to get to 300 which I know you don’t accept - and I’m not saying your arguments are wrong on that.
Its just that I was and still am happy to see him get the 300 now that he’s so close.
But does Edwards justify his spot in the team?
Cotchin has played 280 why don’t we nurse him to 300 as well
Who cares about winning games and premierships
This was the most disappointing piece of Shane’s performance for me last night.
Here, with 58 seconds left and the game on the line and the ball slightly in our half of the ground , he chooses to pull out from putting his hands on the ball first and instead, allows Rowell to take possession and hope he can tackle him effectively. He does sort of tackle him effectively, but the ball still falls loose and GC go down the other end and kick the winning goal.
He needed to make the ball his object, hopefully get a stoppage and set up defensively but he didn’t. He just allowed Rowell to get possession instead and the rest is history.

My concern here is, why is he choosing to go to ground. If he wants to tackle, wouldn't it make more sense to be standing up?
