                I know but unfortunately I'm calling it now - his untimely injury now doesn't help.....

                He's just missed too much footy to give us a decent return for the massive dollars we've paid.

                    OMG.
                    I called it before he even got here.
                    Wild speculation, unsubstantiated rumours, silly jokes and opposition delight in another's failures is what makes an internet forum fun.
                    Blessed are the cracked for they are the ones who let in the light.

                        I just don't have time to trawl back through the early days of this wondrous thread to prove it....

                            I've just looked at our fixture list, and realised that Tippett's latest injury means he's going to avoid playing the Crows yet again!

                                Let's all take a deep breath. Tippet was recruited on potential. Even at the crows he was paid overs on potential.

                                He simply hasn't reached the heights we wished for. That's our fault for over paying him.

                                    Credit where it is due, best game this year . All round potential with his ruck work today. I may be converted ?

                                        Great effort by Tippo today.
                                        And with a hand that had been broken and had a plate inserted.

                                            Thinking he showed some of that potential last nite.

                                                I'm wondering if that plate in his had was magnetised. Something made the ball stick

                                                    Shhhhh aguy, don't want people working that out :P

                                                    Great game from Tippo yesterday, we need that sort of performance from him more often than not.

                                                        Best game he has played in a long time. I was really impressed with his ruck work. Now if they can get Pyke fit we should be o.k. with the ruck stocks.

                                                            Apparently the metal plate in his hand works really well with the magnet in the other hand.
