Blake Austin interview

[NT_Tiger]

Very well considered, level headed responses. I am impressed. That, along with his on-field performances says we need to sign him long term.

Blake's been around a while. Had some struggles and a rough up bringing too from what I've read. What I like about him is he's no prima-dona nor has a chip on his should. Has a very mature head on him these days with his second chance we've given him at the tigers. Speaks like a pro, deflects the questions he knows he shouldn't answer in a smart professional manner. Every press conference I've seen him in he never disappoints.

On the field he gives his all every time. As a fan, that's all I ask for.

On ya Blake.

Blake is only 23 y.o. as well, it's not as if he is a seasoned pro.

 

[Doc_Tiger]

Absolutely no doubt, he is a must keep. He deserves a substantial pay increase and a chance to solidify his spot as out 6\. Definite bright future there. I wouldn't be surprised if Sticky makes a strong play for him to move on Campese.

A spine of Baptise, Cornish, Austin and Rapana would be streets ahead of a spine of Buttriss, Campese, McCrone and Robinson.
