In news that confirms all that is good in the world (loyalty) and rejects all that is evil (Forestville)
Dan Lalic has announced his intention to remain a Tiger. He will be the starting Centre in a rejuvenated Tigers outfit and will have a huge season.
Rock on Serbia in 07!!!

Good one
Just to outline Tigers development over the past few years
Luke Schenscher (NBA)
Joe Ingles (NBL)
Josh Wood (College)
Brad Gerlach (Sixers)
Dan Lalic, Tristan Brathwaite, Shane Boal (Academy)

i love Serbia!!!
i think the tigers are on the way up next year with another year of development into lalic, brown, boal and braithwaite, and the return to full fitness of gerlach, they should be around the mark.
Dan Lalic rocks my socks!!
"i think the tigers are on the way up next year"
This has been said every preseason for the last 6 years.
I beleive that the AIS can take all the credit for Schensher, Woods and Ingles!
Yeh and the AIS just randomly selected all of them for no apparent reason
God knows why Josh Wood got selected, can someone say NO GAME!

great call 101654!
Gerlach definitely not going anywhere. Throw that one out the window.
Tigers have produced some of the most talented players in the country for 20 years plus now..
Can someone say Wheeler and Bradtke? How about Rick Hodges? Ben Osborne? Can't be bothered thinking of more right now, but add them to the list above.
try again Andy!!!

post 101641 - graet engish - k knocker
Andy maybe 3rd time lucky heh, Dan well done, I think Andy will just move down his big man list (tried about 5 over last two years) but I'm not sure what big men are left to poach - has Whitmore really retired?? or what about Olbrich
Hoban will struggle, hope Dougie still has the passion, give Dougie his permanent starting spot
Gerlach is definately going to Eastern, and what a great move
whats ben osbourne doing nowdays? how good was he? like what were his stats?

Will be hard to replace Dix from here.
Perhaps Wheeler?
In the girls the Tigers have also developed Tracy and Narelle
Can't remember why but strangly they didn't want Lindsay when she returned from the AIS so she went to Forestville
I heard Scott Arnold may be looking for a return to the Flames to reunite him with good mate todd matthews? Any Truth in this?
Tracey only played for NCT for a year, two max before the AIS got her. Hard to call 2 years "development".
Some players could play for Bobs Basketball Club and they will still make it, that sort of drive and determination (and genetics) is in the player, not the Club.
You say Tigers have produced over the last 20 years, what about the next 5 to 10? One word - NOTHING

Anon, bit hard to predict if any of the players currently in U/10's will be any good.

I could not see Scott going back to Norwood - he improved greatly at Forestville.

It would be unlike forestville to get/buy wheeler to play for them, he would not play for free.

lol doc.
Show me the Money, Scott Arnold one the Woolacott at Norwood. Not sure if you can improve much from that (unless he won it this year, which I'm pretty sure he didn't)

I dunno Lockstock, I thought Arnold was awesome this year and would've had one of his best years if not his best year. I think it had a lot to do with him really getting in shape (I believe he's a personal trainer now if anyone needs a trainer!) this season, having some good team players around him and some really good team ethics. Played a great role within the team concept which is what I think Norwood had a few issues with, this year and in the past.
we'll see if its a gd move once the season starts, basically Dan needs to play big mins & if that doesnt come his way, bye bye tigers for good.
Gerlach and Dan will be staying at the tigers! they have improved so much since they have been at te tigers. i have known them both for a while. They have both improved very much. Went to school with them and they will be staying at the tigers!!!
