But if he's 100% fit and healthy and finds that form, it's something for the Tigers to be really buoyed by.

I think a win for them this season in terms of their path of development is to get into the finals hopefully win a couple of finals and to really capitalise on the season they've had and then again go again next year get them improvements and keep building and

you know consistently hold yourself to that high expectation of playing well enough to play well in the finals back into the season and this season's already a win for them well no they need to win they need to play finals and then this season's a win and then it's all about the next couple years how they keep building and improving and getting better

We probably didn't feel like we were as far away as maybe some others did pre-buy.

I think we were six and five when we went into the buy.

And with the way the game's

Where the league's at at the moment, it's so tight, it's so even.

And we had a, in our opinion, we had a pretty tough draw.

We had a number of games.

We played Brisbane in Brisbane, Geelong in Geelong.

So we go back and look at it.

We had Collingwood at the MCG.

So we've come into that bye with some belief there, but definitely since the bye.

Probably.

No, I don't think so.

A footy ground's a footy ground in the end.

I mean, you know...

Waito and I are talking about clubs in club land when you have clubs that sometimes you just lose again in spite of how good you go and all the rest of it.

So grounds can feel a little bit like that, but it only takes a win and then it's all over and you forget about it.
