The same posters who bag Tomlinson and our decision to bring him in also whinge about us playing ANB, the brothers Wagner and OMac. The club can’t win. 

when they keep drafting spuds and then replace them with spuds, no, they can't win. Tomlinson is garbage. And has been all finals. We need the complete opposite of him.

The Giants were no chance today, all just a media beat up it was going to be close.

His first half confirms he is a very ordinary player and GWS football management won’t spend a minute trying to retain him because they’ll be happy to free up his salary.  The golden rule should be that if their Club doesn’t fight to retain them, walk away.

Completely wrong way to look at it when many of us would not have recruited the NQRs you mentioned in the first place.

Taking Tomlinson and paying him the rumoured salary would be so Melbourne

Because we do not have a good culture or mature coaching we always go the mediocre, safeish option. Tigers backed their culture with Pickett.

We are not the most enticing club to come to right now. Tomlinson is about the best we can do right now. 

How do you sell a team that finishes 2nd bottom, has no real place to call home, survives on the coat tails of the past and doesn't have any fight off the field let alone on it.

This thread was always going to go this way once the Tigers were 5 goals up.

 

 

Yep no surprises there.  Death, taxes and nuffies.

From what i have seen over the past few weeks, he definitely won't be in our best 10 players' and yet it seems we are going to be paying him a fortune.

God i hope we are able to bring in Ben King to give us at least something decent out of this wretched year.

    The premiership defender had his best year yet as he was given the opportunity to move into the midfield and made a good fist of it.

    Veteran Demonland Trackwatchers Kev Martin, Slartibartfast & Demon Wheels were on hand at Gosch's Paddock to kick off the official first training session for the 1st to 4th year players with a few elder statesmen in attendance as well. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Beautiful morning. Joy all round, they look like they want to be there.  21 in the squad. Looks like the leadership group is TMac, Viney Chandler and Petty. They look like they have sli

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.

    2024 Player Reviews: #31 Bayley Fritsch

    Once again the club’s top goal scorer but he had a few uncharacteristic flat spots during the season and the club will be looking for much better from him in 2025.

    After sustaining a torn ACL in the final match of the 2023 season Jake added a bit to the attack late in the 2024 season upon his return. He has re-signed on to the Demons for 1 more season in 2025. Date of Birth: 12 August 1991 Height: 186cm Games MFC 2024: 8 Career Total: 229 Goals MFC 2024: 8 Career Total: 188

    2024 Player Reviews: #3 Christian Salem

    The luckless Salem suffered a hamstring injury against the Lions early in the season and, after missing a number of games, he was never at his best. He was also inconvenienced by minor niggles later in the season. This was a blow for the club that sorely needed him to fill gaps in the midfield at times as well as to do his best work in defence.

    2024 Player Reviews: #39 Koltyn Tholstrop

    The first round draft pick at #13 from twelve months ago the strongly built medium forward has had an impressive introduction to AFL football and is expected to spend more midfield moments as his career progresses.
