Game day Tigers v Bombers.....the headless chooks

Their list is rubbish David. Their supposed better players and the core of their midfield are all bruise free players. Merrett, Shiel, Parish, Caldwell. Then they have this plethora of nobody-average players that pop up in a game every now and then but otherwise provide bugger all over the course of a season. Hind, Guelfi, Durham, Zerk, Reid, Menzie, Ridley, Langford, Jones, Francis….and on and on.

Importantly, the whole squad seems to have no buy in to anything that any coach places on them especially when it comes to contested and defensive elements of the game, hard running, pressure, tackling etc.

What’s happened to Nik Cox ? They’ve killed that kid.

I think Cox is injured.

Gee Hind seems to think he's one of the greatest of all time. That arrogant little pat on Millers head when they had a wrestle shows that. What an arrogant flog to do that when you are 10 goals down!! He was caught HTB in their defensive 50 shortly after that, I'd have loved Miller to run up and give him that little pat back on his head then.

You are spot on with their whole bunch of average players. Reid may be ok, but he needs to eat more steak!! Looks like he'd blow over in a strong wind. What is he 200cm and about 75kg!! Ridley looked like he was going to be a gun, again another skinny kid that can't put weight on. He's their tallest defender but does he take Lynch, nope he heads to Cumberland. Strange, strange, strange. Do these guys not know how to eat and where the gym is?

Dont forget Heppell. He would have to be close to the most over rated footballer around these days. At the age of 30 he is hiding on a wing doing nothing useful.
And for a captain of a team that gets bagged for lacking leadership, he appears to escape any criticism. If the Suns are seriously chasing him they are doomed.

Aah, now I understand your name. You must be a masochist if you are waiting for some consistency from the umpires, sounds like self-flagellation to me.

Not waiting for consistency or competence from the maggots, not sure that's even possible. But considering they're paid a hundred grand a year for a bit of part time work. I'd at least expect them to know n understand the rules, then apply them as needed. Maggot got that one 100% right, can only wish they'd do it right a bit more often. Especially with the blatantly obvious infringements.

Gotta love social meedjia. Gives all the sad pathetic little cockroaches a safe dark place to hide n *smile* on people. Would be wonderful if he was actually a member at Essendrugs n used his real name to post under. Then perhaps he could get in shitloads of trouble for his feeble dribble.

I thought these dumb-f*ck lunatics respected the long list of indigenous players at their 'club'. Long, Dean Rioli, Tippa, Wanganeen, Ryder, Lovett-Murray to name a few.

I don’t have twitter - is there someone who can post what was written. Bummers supporters have a history of attacking us - didn’t one get caught out a while back. Can’t remember if it was racist though.

No, that *smile* doesn’t need to be reposted here. Keep that racist crap away from PRE.
Isn’t it enough to know there were racist comments directed to our players, without knowing the exact words?

The person is pretty much guaranteed to be very unwell in the head. His (probably a "he") posting is a scattergun of racist, sexist, fascist *smile*. Claims everything is OK because "free speech".

No indication he is a supporter of any particular footy club from his tweets.

Definitely worth reporting and blocking though. Not that Twitter will do anything about it.

Said it before, but a lot of their supporters are nasty.

Nasty - u shud see what thet wrote. This had better be a top of the page story like it has been b4 with Goodes and Betts. What they said about Malion and MJR is pure vitriol and totally disgusting. It better be all over AFL 360 and shud trump stuff like Collingwood winning etc

When it comes to sportsmanship to opposition I occupy the middle moral high ground. Other than 194 games is there something about Hurley's character or career that deserves bipartisan admiration ?

He stood up for Tom Lynch when that bizarre witch hunt was on a couple of years ago

You are talking about a club who were well known for their drug culture a few years ago and now seem unable to build a body naturally by hard work
