    Going to have a big year. Well done Tom, enjoyed that interview. Some good insights there.

    Realise it’s not the OPs title but that’s one ill informed title that they’ve run with for this update on Tom.
    Unfortunately it’s not an illness that can be just turned off, managed yes but he will need to continue the fight.

    He's all of that and more. I'm really hoping that he has a big season in 2019.

    Good interview about an important issue within society. I wish Tom a great 2019.

    Would love Tom to “stick it right up ‘em” (doubters and media idiots). A thoughtful, eloquent and intelligent chap. I reckon’ if he can manage the mental and physical challenges and if our MC let him play more at full forward I think 2019 could be a really positive one for Boydy. If he can reach the heights of the 2016 prelim and especially the grand final we will have another superstar to rival Bonti.

    It would be huge for the club and of course Tom. Can you imagine the hysteria if he put in a few performances like he did in the 2016 GF or if he had a couple of break though game as a forward and kicked 6 or 7 goals?

    It would sure boost his confidence. Hoping he has a big impact in that forward line next year.

    Yep. I must admit I worried reading that headline because the black dog never totally goes away.
