Couldn't Cody change his mind still?
Nope.
All clubs and players need to nominate (i think its) 12 months in advance.
There was an article specifically about Walker when he made the call saying the decision needed to be made by [this date] and tigers were left disappointed that they lost the right to him.
IN: L. Young, Wilson, Hewett, HOK, Ison, MoirOf the 6 in's you've mentioned, only Hewett deserves a call-up. That's not going to happen. If you saw Voss' post match you'd know George is on the nose. Well on his nose primarily
I would rather Harry went to CHB than bring in the donkey (L Young).
Wilson started off pretty well yesterday afternoon but then had a couple of horrible moments and his confidence just dropped off. Like he felt he'd blown his chance? Still I'd be happy to give him a run if Cowan doesn't get up. Maybe he'll get in anyway. At the expense of a seriously underdone/out of form Cottrell
HOK is just no good at the moment. Cannot get considered, so based on our MC he has every chance
You need to watch the magoos game. Moir kicked an absolute ripper on his left from the boundary. More evidence of a player who has "something" but just can't sustain it for longer periods , yet, I hope. Still if Harry goes back he would be my logical replacement.
Finally, Ison. First time I've had a good look at this kid and I'm hoping, HOPING, we may have found one. Didn't get a lot of it but 3 goals from 8 kicks ain't bad. Looks to have some mongrel too. Wouldn't mind having a look at him in the big league
oh, p.s. Cody Walker. Very, very good
I didn't watch any of the game as I had to hand out the trophies at my cricket club's presentation night.
However, I have read a fair bit online about the match and it appears there were no trophies to be handed out there.
I can only summise that we are genuinely tanking and my reasoning is as folows.
If we can finish last, we can bid on the Port Adelaide kid, get matched by the Power and get that extra bonus pick at the end of the first round. Then we can take the best key position player with our next attempt. After that, if anyone bids on Walker, we can use the bonus pick as part of the collateral to match the bid.
In other words, we are going to try and get two young guys instead of one.
Furthermore, why has Hewett been dropped to the seconds and not recalled ??
Because he is providing genuine leadership to the young guys down there and they will not be promoted to the seniors as the selectors want to keep the next batch of youngster away from the toxicity the senior players.
Yes, it's quite a fanciful theory but its the only way I can understand the utterly woeful onfield efforts we are seeing right now.
I told you we wouldnt respond. This group doesnt know how to when challenged.Surely Byrne being a country lad has a paddock and dam we can borrow for a few days for some camp fire soul searching.
SOS smiling, Fake pity from TDK and Jack after the game about how bad we are and how they feel our pain??EB I would drop a dozen with ease from last's s-show.
The club should be embarrassed and as I said prior game win, lose or draw I'm not talking about the coaches future based on this game. This loss is all on the players and the leaders and makes me think we might have to import some leadership from another club because there are hardly any options..
I was going to ask for two first rounders for Harry in a trade to Tassie , might have to rethink that and beg for two second rounders. He needs a spell away from the game and Brisbane can probably just rub Bens name off the whiteboard and replace it with Harry, no need to change the low confidence.
The media should have a field day with the players his week and rightly so, surely the club have to try more youth now and look to the future..
5 minutes into the 3rd up by 3 goals, an angry Jack stood up to Cripps grabbed his guernsey gave him a mouthful, team mate helps Jack gives Cripps a shove. Harry just stands there like a stuffed dummy.Harry is the biggest pussycat in footy. He scares no one.
All downhill from there.

Somehow that makes sense. He opens his mouth and he looks both ignorant and stupid, a poor combination. I'm glad I don't know him.He completes a great trio with Ross and SOS. I'm surprised Bolts and Boris are there TBH.
Win, lose or draw I don't see this game as season defining or as a reason to sack Voss the next day or give him a 5 year contract either. This is the clubs dignity and pride on the line facing players who walked out for the money, greener pastures, to play for a club led by that smug clown Bassett who has campaigned against our rights to fairly select father/son players, stolen our players and we need to rally and kick their arse big-time..plus all my inlaws are Saints supporters and will be unbearable.sadly our mob just never respond.

I could have easily added racist but he apologised and the players affected accepted it. Nonetheless a bigger buffoon that is so full of himself you will not find.
