GAME DAY Tiges v Hawks
- Thread starter Mr T.
- Start date
Exactly.
They have no idea what to do with ball in hand when they’re transitioning to the forward line.
The movement doesn’t look natural and we have to work too hard for every goal.
Something needs to change
A lot of jokes about it, and personally expected us to cop a hiding and hardly cared, but I think drop the tanking 'yokes'. Clearly this club never does, refuses to, including today. Just watch that last 5 goals in 6 minutes again if anyone thinks we ever would.
Loved the result for several reasons, but if someone seriously thinks the club or Dimma staged a draw today, they need their head read. We are not MFC or Cartoon. Simply ridiculous.

Yep, most satisfying draw I have ever seen all round. You're quite astute!
Nonsense, couple of goals in dead rubber doth not a forward make. He's best as an attacking, rebounding HBF who can be switched into the middle or forward if the team needs a lift, like today. Much like Baker.
Thought he had a bit of a shocker today. Redeemed himself at the finish.
Living in history. Very ordinary game from JR8 today until saving his/our day at the end. Will be interesting to see if he is still getting a game this time next year. Bachar got tapped on the shoulder and was probably still moving better than Jack. Not far from becoming a liability IMHO. One more injury would put the heat on.
He's an absolute legend but everyone comes to the end.
I thought most of our indigenous boys did: Pickett, Parker too. Even DRioli and Bolton were not great; good at times.
Gave Bolton votes for the special stuff. Classiest player on the ground.
I got the impression they wanted to walk off, don't think you can read anything into it.

First game I’ve liked from Ross. RCD and CCJ played well. Miller solid. Stack finished well. You’re not going to get much more than that from 1 game.
True, however there’s a bit of collective info to work with now, though I saw some things to like with the Cubs , I’m still where I was early in the season that there’s talent, however I doubt we have star mids coming through and fact is you need star mids to win flags . I still have Dow as the best of them , however I’m not sure his kicking is anything better then ok .in saying that we still have a couple of handy old mids to see us through while we find some more . If we could land Tom Green that would make a huge difference going forward , would allow us to add a stack of skilled outside run.
Yep, I agree, there's a dirth of talent, we really need to score in free agency AND the draft. One for now, one for later.
On average I think you can reasonably expect to pick up a couple of good players with those sort of picks. 2017 for example, Higgins at 17, CJ at 20, Balta 25, Naish 34, Miller 63 and possibly pick of the bunch Baker rookie draft pick 18.
Last 5 or 6 games Flossy was in excellent form. Possibly best Tiger player over that period. Fairly interrupted season with injury too.
if we go FA , think we need A grade talent not anymore role players, may as well play the kids in those roles
