GAME DAY !!!! Premiers v Pensioners

Is it me or is McIntosh basking in his glory. He should know what its like to miss success yet he is playing soft for a big guy right now.

Stop being in denial people we have issues. This isn’t like other years. Our depth has been slowly eroding and it’s starting to show.

This is spot on. We’ve been able to get away with it for a couple of years, but eventually something has to give.

If i've learned anything over the last 4 years (except 2018) it is to never write us off and that we find a new gear after the bye

Other than the shellacking by St Kilda in 2017, that would quite possibly be the worst I have seen the Tigers play over the last four years.
Bit hard to stomach when I was just getting used to be a successful team.
Let's hope it was a hiccup and that the loss sends a strong message through the Club.

We haven't won a flag from the bottom half of the Top 8. It must be an internal challenge we've set ourselves.

Absolutely spot on. People think we will just magically click our fingers towards the end of the year and win another Grand Final. Make no mistake we are at the cross road of being smart about it and quickly rejuvenating the side or we stick loyal and drop off a cliff very quickly. Club and coaches need to make some hard calls. Chaos footy is over and the players we picked to play it are no longer delivering

Really?

We've got the easiest draw in the competition from this point on and 4 or 5 blue chip players to come back, plus Vlastuin underdone.

We've got work to do but we've been here before and know how to time a run.

And we've got MRJ to inject.

Very optimistic TBR.

We might be able to handle the lower teams but the top teams are handling our pressure and then hitting us right back and we are the one’s failing.

Slaughtered by Melbourne.....slaughtered by Geesook...................... slaughtered by Sydney.

We've been slapped 3 of our 4 losses.

2 of which we were in control of for the first 1 and 1/2 quarters and did not capitalise with score board pressure.

This was almost a replica of the Melbourne game.
On top early then destroyed

Yeah but we didn’t touch the ball in that game. Half the problems tonight began when we had the ball.

Not sure it was when we had the ball, seemed like it was when we were trying to get the ball and we kept fumbling, stumbling and dropping the *smile* ball

Yep. They didn't beat us, we let them beat us.

Maybe hes seeing the writing on the wall and thats why hes in no rush to sign up. Hes our only young gun midfielder we have. Lose him and our fall will be quick and ugly
