Game Day Tigers v Demons

[Rfc4Ever]

Prestia hasn't been himself all year, is he carrying an injury?

 

[TigerForce]

Straight swap in the forward line is bearable. Keep Hugo well away from the backline.

Put Hugo on the wing or in the middle.

 

[zgod]

That would be a no.........and he struggles to spoil also.

He is no Nank. But that's where we are are at.
Exposure will pay dividends.

 

[Ridley]

Was thinking the exact same thing.

Is he injured?

I've never seen marlion play this timid.

Timid is a good adjective to describe his game tonight so far. Very unlike him.

 

[King Kong]

Prestia hasn't been himself all year, is he carrying an injury?

Definitely in the worst patch of form for his career.

 

[tommystigers]

If we can clean up the stupid turnovers we are right in this. Please don’t lose because of clangers. Umpiring has been awful. A total chooklotto.

 

[zgod]

Prestia hasn't been himself all year, is he carrying an injury?

Been banging on. It's his pec.
He is not hitting contests or reactive in contests

 

[Ridley]

Put Hugo on the wing or in the middle.

Middle? No chance. Not good or strong enough. Wing is to close to the backline. Forward pocket.

 

[mad_tiggy911]

Looking good so far. Need to maintain the rage.

 

[gold1]

I am liking the 6 tackles to their 1 in the forward line.That is where we can win this game.

HT
38-52

We have played smarter this half. But a half to go.

We have a clear plan to not kick long as it falls into Melbournes hand with their talls.

The look at HT on the Melb players “ what the f**k just happened”

We got to continue our strategy as we know HT has come and Melb will adjust but we got to stick to this plan. That’s our chance to win this game.

Don’t bomb it long. Lower the eyes. Look for that shorter option. Switch play to unsettle Melbourne’s structure.

Samson & Miller have done ok so far and Samson has got a goal.

I wonder whether the rules ( constant tweaking ) of the bump has uncharacteristically has left Pickett in no man’s land as to how approach the contest.

Short has had a good half and been a good inclusion thus far.

Cumberland has shown his class.

Just like Melb can get better the second half, so do the Tigers.

I’m keeping things in perspective.

A promising first half of football.

Exactly. The silver spoons looked rattled. I hope we don’t come out complacent in 2H. We need more of the same at centre clearances. We may lose the tap, but we need to keep anticipating where it’s going. Going fwd, don‘t be predictable. Keep a few going in low, or go wider. Stretch them. I want to see Lever reacting like the 2017 GF.

Yep disappointing. Come on Dion big second half!!

 

[craig]

Prestia hasn't been himself all year, is he carrying an injury?

Had a pectoral strain but hes grabbing at the footy instead of extending hence hes fumbling more than he usually does and he's not tackling hard either.

Probably still has an issue there and is trying to work through it.

 

[craig]

Geez that was a tough HTB on Young there.

Looks like the square ups are coming this quarter.

 

[leon]

Can Ben Miller take a mark though ?

No, And spectates after a middling efforts.

 

[dimmauchump]

We just cant stop making enough mistakes to win a game

 

[Rfc4Ever]

Terrible Taranto kick inside 50, need to bomb it long at least

 

[Mopsy]

Gee that’s a tough call on Young. Not sure where the prior was.

 

[dimmauchump]

Can someone knockout the Dees Pickett. *smile* me

 

[dimmauchump]

Martin just cant get near the ball tonight
