Picken only 3-4 weeks away, good news I was expecting longer. Why is Wards weeks NEVER go down :(

[chef]

I'm a bit worried about the TBA after Johnno's name.

[Dazza]

Has Picken dropped a few weeks?

[EasternWest]

Does that mean Tiller is available or is he LTI?

[NoParkingOnMatchDays]

Discussing this the other night at the game and it was mentioned that it wouldn't be surprising if Johnno might pull out this week with an injury and wouldn't come back retiring mid year as he looked a bit off the pace.

Tiller played in Williamstown First last week after a week in the seconds, did well for someone who has misse a lot of footy.

Looked like he had bulked up abit too.

Thanks. I probably could have researched that myself but you've taken all that work out for me!

Good to hear. I hope he continues to show form as I really like him.

[LostDoggy]

I thought Moles had an ankle injury?

Whoa! I though he's been pretty good the last two games. his link up play and attach on the footy has been great. He's obviously not the player he was 2 or 3 seasons ago, but he is worth his spot still. Who are we going to bring in that would add more than he does?

You might have to give Tiller the benefit of the doubt after missing a lot of football, but I thought he was a long way from his best last week at Williamstown. He seemed to get into good positions but then drop the mark or handball, and I thought his mobility was poor. Still, as I said, not fair to judge yet.

He might well be a player who falls in the middle — not really a tall and not mobile enough to do other roles.

[Hotdog60]

If Cordy is out long term can elevate another rookie?

[The Coon Dog]

If Cordy is out long term can elevate another rookie?

Yes.

[LostDoggy]

Who would be the best bet to get elevated TCD?

[LostDoggy]

Would it be worth elevating Hooper or would he just not get a game?

[Mantis]

Would it be worth elevating Hooper or would he just not get a game?

He wouldn't get a game so it isn't worth it.

[LostDoggy]

Yep no point if they're not ready to play at that level. I think Cal Ward's contribution is certainly missed in the engine room. Probably our hardest player in the finals last year.

[Before I Die]

Doesn't Moles go back on the rookie list in one week when Howard comes of the long term injury list? Cordy's misfortune may enable us to keep Moles on the main list until mid-season when we are allowed to make one rookie elevation,

This has nothing to do with the thread, and it may have been answered elsewhere, but who is that in your avatar?

Shane Thorne being out for up to 3 months can also keep Moles upgraded.

Looks a bit like Travis Johnstone.

Andrew time to take away the sad face.

Done. Bring back the handstand, I say! :)
