Re: Tambling [Merged]
If our recent success rate continues (which I don't think it will 8)) that angst will just be transferred to someone else. Tambling is just the current whipping boy and his form this season does make him the easiest target.
Tygrys said:I really hope this is Tamblings last year at Richmond. He just isn't worth the angst. If there was any legitimate hope yet that he could be elite, A-grade or special it might be worth perserving with him. But what is all this angst about? Basically the forlorn hope that he might become a consistent serviceable contributor, a foot soldier. Certainly every team needs them, but even that seems from what we have seen from the majority of his career beyond him. And even with the middling picks that we'll likely get, we'd probably have a better chance of getting someone to fulfill that modest capacity than continuing with Tambling. If he had been a pick 40 instead of 4 his papers would already have been stamped. Six years is frankly long enough to know if he'll be any good.
