Season defining Tiges v Dogs - Game Day Thread

[ToraToraTora]

I still reckon we will be fortunate to pull this one off. You've got Prestia just creeping at everything, Edwards already in semi-retirement, a backline that is hanging in there but got me chewing nails, Parker simply not a team player, a young HB with woeful short kicking. I think that covers it for now.

 

[TigerForce]

Get Short in the middle.

 

[Tony Braxton-Hicks]

I have him winning the JDM at the moment.

Another medal? I look forward to the photos.

We are smashing it in the hitouts but to no one.

Not enough tackling on the forward line.

Leave Short alone,at least he is giving it a crack.

Like Jack contesting in the ruck.

Yes Dion is hesitant,but has been good anyway.

And finally,anyone who reckons this stand rule is good for the game needs their head read.

 

[jb03]

I hope this isn't Carlton and St Kilda all over again.

 

[spook]

I look at Broad, and think of GC not wanting him as a free agent, and I just smile.

He wasn't a free agent.

 

[BrisTiger24]

Gee Short cost us a goal and then Jack failed to get it back.

We are in this but we have some passengers that need to pick it up. Edwards, McIntosh, Short, Castagna and Baker need to perform like senior players.

Marlion, Rioli, Lynch killing it. Prestia, Cotch, Balta, Broad, Nank doing ok. Need a few of these guys to step up and we can win this

 

[Tigers2011]

I’d love to see Balta tried in the wing or as a ruck rover. Not using his athleticism fully.

 

[DragaTheCro]

I reckon we will win this. Bulldogs aren’t that good.

 

[spook]

We are 2 charity goals and half a dozen easy misses from being 6 goals down. The writing is on the wall.

But on the bright side we're all going to die.

 

[Streak]

He wasn't a free agent.

Don’t spoil the moment with facts.

 

[craig]

Again need more from Graham Baker and Edwards.

Same as last week

 

[Smoking Aces]

Again need more from Graham Baker and Edwards.

Same as last week

Edwards the biggest disappointment.

 

[22nd Man]

I have him winning the JDM at the moment.

Would have given it

I’d love to see Balta tried in the wing or as a ruck rover. Not using his athleticism fully.

replace KMac for a quarter

 

[craig]

Broad, Rioli, Marlion, Cotch, Dion and Lynch our best so far.

Need a lift from Shai also.

 

[St Kevin]

Another medal? I look forward to the photos.

May give me cause to change my profile pic!

 

[Dev Tiger]

We are trying really hard. I reckon the Dogs will win by 5 goals plus though. We don't have the running power they have. You can't fault the effort so far though.

 

[Scoop]

Putrid last thirty seconds from Short. Headless.

Backline overall superb. Rioli & Marlion BOG. Lynch not far behind, effort & workrate like Gold Coast Tom.

Good grief Dion Prestia makes a difference.

 

[MalenyTiger]

Would like to see Bolton spend more time in the middle. We need him contributing where he can hurt the opposition for 4 quarters

 

[Razorgang2]

I’d love to see Balta tried in the wing or as a ruck rover. Not using his athleticism fully.

That disposal off the wing, the run and kick was sublime.
