He's a gun, hes killing it….never understood all the fuss about him, anyone would think he opened fire with an UZI on bay 4 at LO the way ppl carry on
Lafranchi and O'Donell are the main ones. They have both gone on to SOO and Test footy since leaving us. Question is would they have achieved this if they stayed here?
Ben Teo has become a better player since leaving…but is that more of a case of him finally growing up?
Morris has played better since leaving (he played better before coming here as well) as has Harrison.

Its not Morris' fault Sheenius had him playing out of position for 3 yrs. Morris gave 110% every game he played you have to give him that. Didn't miss a game in 3 yrs
Corey Payne has improved out of site while at the Dogs
I'll throw in Junior Moors for next yr as well

My point exactly. I blame Sheens entirely for the way Morris was used here. I said he was good before he got here and has shown good form since leaving meaning I dont think he has improved, merely playing to his potential when he has been used correctly. I never bagged him when he was a Tiger as he did most certainly always try his best every game for us.

yeah i agree stryker, i know Johnny personally (im an old Scone lad) and i was unbelievably excited to hear he was coming to the tigers for 2007\. I have many mates that go for Parra that were devastated when he left to join us. He is a great player and was never used correctly in tiger colours. Its really sad to see how he ended up here. The guy gave 100% every outing and played every game for 3 years for christs sake, and was continuously on the end of bad schtick on this forum. He s not a half back. Period. Sheens, ill never forgive you for the johnny cronk experiment.

Ryan O'Hara is another who gets unfairly treated. He wasn't in the club, thats the problem he had. We all know how hard it is when you aren't. In the back end of 08 he was just about our best player, coincidentally the only time he started to get a decent crack

O'Hara made it too easy for the defense….running straight at the line he was always a sitting duck.....needed to badly find some footwork to his game, dunno how he played Origin...one game says it all though
Shouldve been a stand up
