Re: We won the last quarter - PLEASING!!!

Not hard to win a last quarter when you have been obliterated for 3 quarters and the opposition is on the bus home. Today shows how far we actually are of the pace. Get games into the younger brigade. Have a decent look at some of the list cloggers and work out what we need to take the next step. We...

Re: McCartin to the backline?

teaching him how to playu in the backline would be good. Gehrig became a good player because of his time in the backline. However currently with zero tank, almost no agility and realistically just passable strength he would get absolutely monstered if he played in the backline. Buddy would wet his p...

Re: Contenders Or Pretenders?

We are a developing team. Very immature. Richo main job will be to build a base for the players confidence. We can't have them believing the hype. I can't remember a team pumped up so much by the media after a big win. Last night they turned up expecting to win. Same went for the Melbourne game. Exp...

Re: Can we buy a goal????

Great game. Evened the ledger for goal kicking after last week's shamozzle. We are back on track to get the worst ever kicking for goal record. After 21-12 last week i didn't think we could get it back on track. Well done boys...

Re: Billy Longer - Best game yet?

At the game the other night and turned to my tigers supporter mate and said "if longer kicks this Goal the tigers are cooked as it will be the first time i have seen Longer kick the ball".
Good to see he can actual kick and not only handball.
Best game by a mile.

Re: St.Kilda's accuracy in front of goal - An incredible sta

Does anyone have a record of the worst kicking on record? Currently sitting at 171 goals and 202 points. Which equates to an astonishing 45.8% accuracy. Glad they don't count the number that fell short or the players didn't have the balls to take the game on and back themselves. I can't remember a t...

Trade Bait - Longer - No one would be interested. The game has moved past a tap only ruckman. He is ok in ruck contents but not dominant enough to justify as his only attribute Gilbert - Good as a secondary ruck against other secondary rucks. Against a Sandilands it would be a David and Goliath batt...

and if we dont win the 12 we dont deserve the spot.

On the current form (even with 2 wins in a row) we are miles off.

Seriously, what has happened to the ruckman in AFL. We have three on our list that have the best football attribute as being 'tall'. Longer, Pierce and Homes have zero talent in finding the ball around the ground let alone actually being able to kick it if it does fall in their lap. I am not so much...

It is simple. They dont practice enough. Finally Riewaldt is getting it right. But he is the only one. Every other player goes to water when they get out in front. You can see the clod shiver that runs through their body. Therefore they go too far back for their run up. They then bob, prop and hop o...
