If Duigan has a quiet  or shocker game this week do we all think that one glory game last week is enough to save his career.....?

He's been good for three weeks EB.

Cimm...do you think thats enough given Mick didnt want to know him during the season?....if we get hammered by the Swans he might go back to the bad Mick and want to wipe out the list again...

He might, but like someone else mentioned Duigan might also be a poster boy for MM's philosophy (whatever that is ) plays a game early, gets dropped, works his way back and when he gets a game he performs in a final no less.

Anyway, I don't know but I like a confident Duigan in the side. His best does lift the side.

If he's kicking goals he's eating rolls.

Tell you who im quite impressed with. Ty Vickery. Very fluent set shot and i reckon i'd almost have him over Reiwoldt.

Vickery V Kruezer?

Kreuzer is a better ruck, Vickery is the better forward currently, but Kreuzer has had about 2 years where he cant get his body right, and the yips set in with his kicking.

Vickery sleeps with the lights on, Kreuzer makes everyone a bit antsy at ground level around the packs, and there is a reason why they are calling him tractor.

At the end of the day, you would want them both as they would be an ideal pairing, with Vickery pinch hitting for Kreuzer in the ruck.

Ty "The Fugu Kick King" Vickery is more like Hampson than Kreuzer, but The Fugu Kick King is not as good in the ruck as either Kreuzer or Hampson and kilometers behind Warnock.

At ground level I see The Fugu Kick King as being closer to Warnock once the ball hits the deck, or at least the way Warnock "was" before the last 5 or 6 quarters we have seen him play. (Why did we have to wait so long 206?)

Nothing worse than seeing a big guy stand and watch mids run around them without even trying to lay a tackle or try a shepherd.

The Fugu Kick King thinks his job has finished once his feet either hit the ground or the face of an opponent, whichever comes first!

Watched Vickey hit Paddy Ryder with a good right cross one day near the boundary line.....better mark and kick than Kruezer but is more of a specialist goalkicker than ruckman....when he rucks the Tigers mids dont get the ball...

I reckon Duigs and Laids will both survive the cull. MM is similar to Phil Jackson on the Bulls and Lakers. Plays the mind games with the senior players to keep them mentally fresh, but is cut throat with rookies or younger players. Players like Joseph and Davies and probably O'Keefe who have been around for a while are at the front of the cull queue IMO.
