Tis indeed. Tiger fans are critiscized for bagging their players but there's also an element who continue to live in hope of a hopeless cause,Big Cat Lover said:Staggerred at posts indicating mcguane is some sort of on-field option for us beyond 2012.

Nothing against Luke but he was very very lucky he was drafted by Richmond.
Would not have earned anywhere near the money he has if drafted by any other club.

The following players should go before him:
Miller
Graham
Adamm Maric
Moore
Browne
Post
Webberly
White
and condsidering Connors and McDonald are gone
If our 11th draft selection is going to be better than Luke by all means delist but we will be in strife should we have injuries in 2013 and have to rely on a first year kid to play ruck /forward. Give him a one year deal
I agree with this, although I do think they may keep McGuane in favour of Post.Disco08 said:Disagree with Browne and Post. Both young talls who deserve another year. We've all seen what McGuane has to offer and to be frank, it's not good enough. He's a classic list clogger and we now have the depth to move his type on.

Injuries have killed Moore's career. McGuane's been given far more opportunity than Post has as well.Tigers of Old said:I would keep Browne ahead of him but Post has shown very little improvement in his time at the club over 4 years. A lot less than McGuane ever has.
Reckon Moore's gone too.

If our depth is so good how come he's getting games?Disco08 said:He's a classic list clogger and we now have the depth to move his type on.

Even if you remove Stumpy and the Big Brown Ranga from Erics delists there's still eight to go before Laceout, thats a fairly decent list trim.
Half our talls are yet to prove themselves capable of holding down a senior spot and while there's a few I'd have before Luke if fit, I won't complain if he gets another season as pure back up or simply as third tall behind Jaaack n High Def.
Plenty of players on all club lists not capable of filling major roles in the team but able to provide solid back up in the lesser roles.
