Teddy is a very good player.
However lets look at some facts.
He has played 75 of a possible 126 games. So He has missed 51 games.
The only year he played 24 games was 2015 when we came 15th. The year he played the next most was 2013 when he played 19 games and we finished 15th.
Overall as a Tigers player he has been involved in 27 wins and 48 losses.
Reading some of this you would think he has led us to 2 Premierships.
We don't even win at 40% with him in the side.
My point is the sun will come up in the morning if he goes to the Chooks or Dogs.
I very much agree, but you know what some people say, about being able to twist stats to suit your argument.
Tedesco also has one of the worst missed-tackle rates of active fullbacks and frankly his positioning still needs work.
In his defence, I would honestly say he's been a difference between actual bad results and potentially super bad results. You get what I mean, of all Tigers players of the last few years he's the main one who can claim to achieving consistent high performance regardless of how bad the team is going.
But I definitely believe we can move on, there is a positive about a clean-out, even of the high-profile players, that we've for so long been a club with a losing culture, and even if you lose big-name players, they are part of that losing culture. Sometimes the best way to fix a culture is to overhaul rather than patch it.
So long as the overhaulers have their heads on straight unlike the idiots who burned the 1999 merger money.
