That's how much we are scraping the bottom of the barrel with Dow doing the promos
That’s going to make the tiger faithful turn up for the game
I think Smithy has been in our bests for at least three weeks now. Would love to see them replace Short with him.
Not a fan of Ryan but the last two weeks he has had hauls of three and four goals.
Maybe it is again time to see if that will translate into AFL form as a key forward.
God knows every time he has played seniors he has been poor and too easily pushed around.
Last one, i know its not a popular opinion but Sam Naismith has totally dominated in the VFL. Maybe we just play him as back up ruck for Toby and see if he can at least bring ball to ground for our small fwds.
It would allow Toby to play more behind the ball and get back more to help the defenders.
Be good just to reward his good form if nothing else.
We have played Soldo and Nank together in the past and i reckon Naismith is more mobile and better in the air than Ivan.

Sounds logical but the way our injuries seem to be adding up or slow to heal, who knows who will be fit enough to get up for the Demons game.

They put lynch in for Surgery this week.
The Sydney game was 3 yrs ago.
And Meehan still reckons 3 months away.

The way things are going, we’ll wind up paying Dow $800,000 to make up the gap in the salary cap.
Luckiest bloke at the club saved by 1 year on contract then when he should've been delisted and now he should be playing VFL on form yet he's pretty much getting gifted games cos there is no one else to play.
Will probably carry on by defaulting a trigger on an extension vi the handout games, keeping him around even longer.
