Given all the comments about the Tigers having a weak / dumb roster, poor choices for captains, and an inexperienced coach, it really sounds like they need a clean-out and a rebuild with a proven quality coach.
Who can they off-load from the current squad at the end of the season? Who's contracted for next season and beyond? Who should they keep as the backbone for a decent squad?
Bring back the 93 team!! They will win more than the team now! Even in there mid 40's, i think that team can do more than this one!! I'll keep lewis, needs more game tym he can become a gun! Walker, futre prospect and rush. The two imports are very good, they should look at gettin julian now he is free. Him in the middle, ballinger, scott in the forwards il have braswell and lewis trying knock that 3 ball, cause he can. How would they be if they had bevo or lamanis or even gordie as a coach?

it's a long season! patience is a virtue. even just about every playing roster looks completely different from start to finish.

Braswell is the key issue at the moment. He is too out of shape to give them the scoring punch that they need. He struggled to keep up with guys like Corin Henry. i know they got him because he is close to citizenship, but currently he looks poor. they don't have a scorer that will go out every game and kill it. And don't tell me that Goulding can do that. rush is a role player, and his days as a regular contributor are done. Balls (unfortunately) is very prone to injury at this stage in his career. Seth Scott reminds me a little of Horvath which is ok but not great. Outside of that, what do they have. Tomlinson that lacks confidence? I think they needed two gun imports and not two role player imports! Homicide and a Beast inside would have changed the whole dynamic. And yes I said Homicide! The giy can flat out ball, brings bums to seats and with a full season in any team, brings success.
Many would suggest that Westover wasnt a proven coach at all. He inherited a very talented team and when he was in charge of a side with limited ability he didnt turn them into a team of champions.
If Scott and Flynn stay and goulding they'll have a good chance maybe new coach and a couple more pick ups along the way I think most current team is good though
