[Spike]

He's the same age as me

 

[Pika]

His younger than me!

But we are not lining up for first grade with all those bump and bruises I guess.

 

[roopy]

Too old to rock and roll.
Too young to die.

I wondered when someone would think Tim was worth another go. I thought he performed well with limited game time in his debut. I cannot see how he could not be as good a choice as Wicks, I really don't understand the love here for Wicks, he's still ordinary at best, weight loss or no weight loss. Did Pato have some sort of viral infection, because he looked well under done on Sunday.

Timmy ran out and worked as hard as he could and was taken off when he was buggered - but it just wasn't long enough.
In his favour was that he has played very little footy this year so far, so was very short of match fitness.
All he has to do is play huge minutes in local games and he will be ready for another shot.

Is he actually playing in the local games Roopy? He was running around with first grade on Sundays warm up!

He should be. All he lacks is fitness.

 

[antonius]

He should be. All he lacks is fitness.

Do you know which local team he's linked with? I'll check out if he's been playing, I just don't see that he's actually played if he's there on Sunday with firsts.

 

[roopy]

He is linked with Lakes.
Looking at articles in the herald, i don't think he played.

No he didn't, Lakes could've used him they got flogged. Therein lies the problem with no reserve grade, from what I can gather only 3 eligable players played in the local games this weekend, that cannot be good for the players. How the hell are they going to get any match fitness?

 

[Pika]

He did play.

 

[Pika]

Tovo, Marv, Nadira, Fawcett, Wes, Edwards, Natusch all played.

 

[Frederick]

How's Fawcett been going? Haven't heard boo about him since we signed him

 

[macavity]

Fawcett is crap. if he sees FG, we are in a bad place.

 

[CJG 182]

Same thing has been said about B. Rogers and he's playing every week.

 

[Jono078]

Can't compared Rogers to Fawcett at all :?

Id be stunned if Fawcett gets any game time.

 

[Pika]

Fawcett had a tough night against Central for Souths.

Dropped his first ball, butchered a couple of tries (well his brother butchered as many as he did playing outside him on the wing).

Lost the fight.

He looked like he was close to breaking the line every time he touched the ball, but never really stood out.

Edwards and Sione smashed Wests up the middle.

Tovo and Marv had great games against The Bay.

Did not see Tim play but apparently worked hard in a crap team.

Did not see George play either.
