Aaron Woods “I regret leaving the Tigers”

It was a lot more than 3 good seasons.

Woodsy played 146 games for the Tigers 2011-2017. For at least 5 years he was the best middle forward we had. The rest were mostly plodders.

That form led to Woods playing 14 games for NSW 2013-2017. 17 games for Australia.

You don't get that from only '3 good seasons'

His form fell away after he left us.
And who replaced him? Washed-up Russell Packer.

If you want to criticise, aim it at Cleary letting Woods, Tedesco and Moses go and for his shit replacements

Don’t blame Cleary blame Isaac Moses he was the grub holding the club to ransom
 
You make it sound like he did a decade of hard toil.
Certainly not how I remember him.

Beep Beep Beep

That’s the sound of Dora backing into the defence.
Something wrong with your memory...
He won Prop of the year more than once in a team that didn't play Finals,
Won it in his last season here.

Maybe if he hadn't left you'd have a better memory?

Cleary was too little too late.
We were in a hard position of Backing the Coach over the Players after many failed years
of backing the Players over the Coach.
Poor timing was the biggest issue.

It’s like when I remember Benji, but the opposite. 😎
 
I think Woods should be the cautionary tale told to a lot of players leaving clubs over money or promises of greener pastures.

Whatever you think of him in his time at the Tigers- he was never as good elsewhere. Leaving the club that he now confesses he never really wanted to leave was a career turning point- only a negative one.

Galvin's early career looks ominously similar at the moment.
