After a slow start he's had a great season. Very good again today.
And still got an issue with that broken knuckle too I reckon as it’s still bandaged up when he plays
Had a knuckle replaced with a magnet and first mark of each match he slips the other half in the footy.
He's one that may find a couple weeks rest helpful....

Recruit of the year.
Our backline dies without him this year.
Yeah Brodie is great and blah blah, but this guy will keep Hawkins to 0 goals one more time this year

I'm just happy he gets to play in a final. It justifies his decision to move clubs. No regrets

The man has been a mountain this year. Sure he looked shakey in the beginning but with our side playing a brand of football the inverse of our norm it was obvious the backline was going to get hammered. Add on to this our second best tall defender was being thrown forward and Grimes and Vlastuin where in and out of the backline highlights how much he had to work.
Now he has the athletic Balta down back with him and, when fit, Grimes can come in and play the zone off defender. Additionally, Gibcus just decides jump higher than the forwards and gets a fist in there.

Agree with the current sentiment. Although he’s not the quickest off the mark, what a pick up he’s been as a stop gap and help for Noah this season. Keep up the great work Taz. Hopefully Daniher and Hipwood aren’t too much of a task though.

Done exactly the job he was recruited for. Our future looks great - too many decent to good to fantastic KPDs coming through. But right now right here Taz has been a rock and necessary to this season.

So many posters bagged him early days, posts aplenty that he should be dropped and never play again etc.
Give yourselves an uppercut to the ball bag.
We 100% dont play finals this year without him such is his impact. That to me warrants recruit of the year.

His experience makes up for any short comings.Mainly pace off the mark.
Has filled Dave's role perfectly.

Out : Astbury
In : Tarrant
Nothing lost
Perfect player in our transitioning of the backline to ease the kids like Miller / Gibcus into the side
also with injuries to Balta & Grimes this year i would hate to think what our situations would have been
2 year deal looking great now

Not only did it stop them playing finals but also taking Tarrant from North helped us secure the 1st pick in the 2nd round. If they had Tarrant there is no way they win the spoonNorth would have been better than Dogs with a KPD. Would have played finals.
