        I seem to recall him getting ink last year...could be wrong though.

          Must've been a work in progress...

            Good luck to Steve. I genuinly hope he plays well at his new club and gets a chance to resume his AFL career.
            They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

                Did he get delisted purely due to injury or list management?

                I thought he'd offer more than Mulligan for example.
                More of an In Bruges guy?

                  A bit of both you'd think. The Mulligan promotion has been confusing, I guess the club figured if Mulligan could make the grade he'd be a genuine key position player, even if fully fit Tiller would be an in betweener.

                    I guess you could say we saw the best of Tiller.
                    If a player isn't likely to improve then why keep them on?

                    Mulligan at least has some improvement in him. He may not be good enough but that is kind of the point of list management. You turn over your stock.

                        The story of his career and no doubt a reason for his delisting, ie too much of a risk.

                          Has had a lousy year, riddled by injuries. Played league on the weekend and went ok


                          A couple of happy snaps.

                          Has some lovely tough stickers.

                              Why do footballers shave their legs? Honest question. I know cyclists and swimmers do, I guess to increase aero/aquadynamics. Does it actually make footballers run faster?
                              But then again, I'm an Internet poster and Bevo is a premiership coach so draw your own conclusions.
