Don't agree. The whole team needs to be invested. Without Dusty and Bolton there would have been no close last quarter game. Dusty is 32yo. He shouldn't be relied on as our prime mover, he is past his best. Bolton actually did get a bit of the ball in the last. Dusty played mostly forward, it hardly reached there. Our prime mover midfielders are Taranto & Hopper. They've been given big 7 year deals. So why single out 2 of our best players in the game?

Game Day - Tiges v Deez Round 20, 2023
- Thread starter Mr T.
- Start date
Totally agree with you TLove on that first highlighted sentence, but where I believe we are differing is about the fact that I just wish Dusty and Shai would've been moved onto the ball earlier seeing as the ball wasn't getting into our scoring area at all, who knows, they may NOT have altered that at all, but what I am saying is I'd at least give our guns that opportunity to put their stamp on the game in the LAST Q.
And absolutely Taranto and Hopper should have been much more influence in the last Q also, no excuses for them whatsoever from me.
Yep, they're Tiger legends, and WERE star players. They're not stars anymore.
Most weeks we seem to save our best for the last quarter but this week we had nothing. Not sure whether it was fitness, game plan, desire or interest. Maybe a combination of all but hope to see an improvement next week
You chose your games don't you? The first three quarters s really entertaining and the fourth a Demons training run
Was wondering where you were today Craigy !!! ... so, you taking the blame ?
LOL
Next week stands to be another one that might be worth a miss..........................
Probably cost Hird a second Brownlow, but it does seem to have gotten them better treated since.
I might as well, has any other campaigner claimed responsibility yet?
I'm not saying this is what has happened, but sometimes they'll give a guy an extension, to offset a pay cut now. They re-jig some salaries, voila. Little war chest for a free agent.
I'm going that's what has happened, because his form at the time wasn't worthy of an extension. Our back 6 have been good this year overall, but...I agree. Is Grimes going to take the spot of a young fella next year?
I couldnt watch the game live so had it on replay and lo and behold someone spoiled it for me 
How the *smile* eff did we conceed a 50pt turnaround?
What a disapointment.

The interesting thing about Young’s game today is that it was probably the best he has played offensively and the worst he has played defensively .
Most other clubs have options but we don't seem to . Maybe our recruiting strategy is at fault
The good times are over now for a while, and how great they were.
Bauer, Sambo, Jud, and Cumberland all in its time to change things up and start playing for the future. Coulthard plays every game for the rest of the season also.
Might not get a chance to get some games into Seth but it might be better for Seth and the Gibbus to concentrate on hitting preseason ready to go.
