Tommy thread #463

Post: # 1124310Post matrix »

lets see what everyone thinks will happen

dont vote what you WANT to happen
vote what you think will happen

Id like to see him get a crack (obviously) but only if the match up is there and if he is needed due to injury

i dont think he;ll get the nod
hopefully thinking that means he will

vote now :)

Should we follow the team official selection line/rules and not select him (vote no) or "select him" (with a "yes") as an emergency ?

Maybe there should be a "yes" (in apostrophes) option too .. as in "picked" as an emergency ? .. but doesn't make the 22.

Will be dissapointed if he doesn't get a go.


Lance or James??

There comes a point in every man's life when he has to say, "Enough is enough." For me, that time is now. I have been dealing with claims that I cheated and had an unfair advantage in <redacted>. Over the past three years, I have been subjected to a <redacted>investigation followed by <redacted> witch hunt. The toll this has taken on my family, and my work for <redacted>and on me leads me to where I am today – finished with this nonsense. (Oops just got a spontaneous errection <unredacted>)

These are not official selection rules. Mods please ban this poster, or at least send him a PM telling him that because his view and post is derisive and at odds with other views, that it is unacceptable and only posted to incite.

If you dont do that I will sook and have a tanty.

Sounds like you're having a sook and tanty right now .
You must have some time to kill between misrepresenting other people's posts .. and engaging in your fantasy arguments.

There's a big difference between wanting him to play and thinking that he will be selected. I'm certainly on the bandwagon for him to be picked however I wouldn't be surprised if Lyon picks the tried and tested for the crunch match against the Roos. Lose and we will most likely not make the finals so there is a lot at stake.

Good post.


However ..

Our forward line is too slow .. Shaw got 29 possessions against us, Leon Davis got 36 the week before.
It's the half backs that are killing us .. they are always amongst the opposition best players.

We need to do something about it.

Even if Walsh (who is a quick tall) is overlooked again Cripps should not be if fit. We need more pace (and effective pressure) in the forward line.

If you're talking this week I can't see Cripps being fit to go.

One Sandy Reserves match, following surgery on a fairly significant injury, would hardly be enough for the rigors of AFL footy - even in the role of sub.

Ross just rang. Said that Tommy was coming along nicely and that he'll be ready to play at the end of his 4 year apprenticeship. He will definitely debut in Round 1, 2014. If he's still here.

The 2009 All-Ireland medallist was also getting plaudits from Saints’ star full forward and captain Nick Riewoldt ..
