Will Taylor Walker thrive in the absence of Tippett??

Yep, he actually played better without him, only started gelling at stages last year, he's a beast anyway and any defender will struggle to contain him

Yeah, Tex should thrive, hasn't got too much competition up forward at the Crows, he'll be the go to man.

Which means Adelaide will be very predictable and defenders will know it's going to Tex and double team him as the ball is being delivered. If another Adel fwd steps up, maybe Jenkins, Tex will improve on last years average but if not I see a decline on the cards. Plus he dosnt have the easy draw this year.

I think Adelaide will make sure that doesn't happen and will make sure someone like Jenkins is there to make sure teams don't just double team or whatever.

yeh he should thrive, but it will be interesting to see how the crows forward line looks with out Tippett. We can all suggest who they think they should play, but Tex should do well and not lose any points off any other players

slow start while he and adelaide get used to the extra attention. still going to come close to a coleman

Porplyzia can play at full forward and be the go to man if needed. He's so good that he doesn't have to be 194 cms to be a key forward.

pikla · February 17, 2013, 02:26:12 AM

i'll be backing his avg to lift with the depature of tippett

Capper · February 17, 2013, 02:48:01 AM

I wont be starting Tex but will be keeping a close eye on him in the opening rounds
