[Themi#9]

:d:d:d

 

[camsmith]

I think I remember Terry saying that Thursty was in also.

 

[TigerAntho]

what about cotch

 

[ToroHombre]

what about cotch

Doubt it, he's still struggling with his achilles from what I have heard.

 

[dyl_tigerman]

this is going to be good

 

[one eyedtiger]

I really can't wait to see all these boys running around. I'm excited

 

[middy]

I must say im quite excited to finally see Rance in action, had big wraps on him all summer, just hope he lives up to them. Hopefully Vickery can provide a good tall option up forward for Nahas to work around.

rance doesn't know the meaning of giving up or not chasing have seen him do at least a fourth and possibly fifth effort for Coburg last year he will become mr one percenter, may sometimes be critically judged for doing team above individual

 

[Danog]

What about Thomilf!? I hope he gets a game.

Agree, relly looking forward to cuz and Vickery but Rance really excites me

 

[Roachy8]

Seriously, has there ever been a Tigers game with more anticipation regarding debut's?

Sure Cotchin's first one last year & this is "only" a NAB game but with Cousins, Vickery & Rance all set to debut on Thursday night, this game has to be our biggest "first outing" fixture for years.

I know I'm pumped...

 

[dean33]

anyone know who's not playing against the pies that did play the 1st game? Obviously tambling won't be but who else isn't lining up??

Read somewhere on OER that a fan was having a chat to Wilbur on family day and he said he'll be rotated out of the side.

I'd imagine ontop of Tambling, perhaps Silvester, Collins, Schulz, Hislop all dropped, Simmonds (rested) and Bowden (rested).

cheers although i must say i'd like to see a little more of hislop.

Tambling needs a rocket, otherwise he is doomed with the depth we have this season!

 

[Barnzy123]

More then likely will throughout the year and remember my list of out's isn't official but would be pretty close to the actual changes. TW is just rotating blokes in and out during the NAB Cup to get a look at what they can bring to the table.

 

[smasha]

Could be 40 thou at least to this game.

 

[CaptainBlood]

Any chance of Adam Thomson getting a run?
IMO he's better than Hislop as an extra in and under midfielder.

 

[PHX]

I was told today there's going to be 9 changes.

Cousins, Jordie, Sugar, Rance, JON, Thomson and Vickery I believe are seven of them. Gilligan could be another as he stayed behind at training to do some goalkicking. Not sure who the ninth one is. Maybe Kingy I'm guessing.


Out:
Hughes - in rehab today
Post - they were pleased with what they saw in Perth and know he can play.

Wholesale changes it is.

 

[TimeFor11]

Do we know what Hughes is in the rehab group for?

Must've strained a muscle looking at himself in the mirror because he barely even broke into a jog against Freo.
