Missing in action: Jay Schulz. The Tigers' first round draft pick from 2002 was earmarked to take over the key centre-half-back role this season but instead had a year to forget. An ankle injury in pre-season saw him miss the first eight games and then he made headlines for all the wrong reasons off the field when he was caught drink-driving leading to the Tigers' losing their long-running major sponsorship deal with the Transport Accident Commission. In the end he managed just four games for the season and faces a critical year in 2006 when he simply must establish himself in the Tigers' side given he has played just 25 games in his three seasons to date.
