Blight was quite good v Blues but not v Freo. He's not needed in our AFL team yet so let him continue his development, fitness and confidence in the 2's. By today's stats that's exactly what is happening. I don't see much point in playing him in the firsts until he has done a solid pre-season. He will be at Richmond next year and for a few year's after.

Tiges vs Aints - Rnd 22 2024 Game day thread
- Thread starter Tigers of Old
- Start date
"I couldve done what yze did today. He sat on the bench just watching." Ken Hinkley has coaching that way for years!
Saints fan seems to really have it in for the Tigers - like a bunch of super-angry Karens, moaning and complaining about all their perceived benefits the ALF gives the tigers, how the AFL and umpires cheated in 2017 blah blah. My theory is that we were crap for ages, like them. But unlike them (who blew it when they were loaded up with talent) - we actually took our chances and won 3 premierships. And because of that, and they really resent the mighty Tigers and their success.
I look forward to going past them again in a few years.
Rubbish club. An embarrassment. One flag in nearly 130 years and that was by a solitary point from the ugliest kick you’d ever see. Have made losing an art form. Send them to Tassie and rename them the Tasmania Devils. Will save a lot of work for everyone.
Our low tackle count and lack of any form of defensive pressure is why players of poor quality like Paddy Dow look like Paddy Dangerfield against us each week. The whole coaching team have to focus on the team now doing the one per centers right. If you can’t do the basics right which just require hard work and effort then everything else falls apart no matter how good the game plan is.
They mentioned 2021 , but I can’t remember the round.

Not our best by a long shot but it's like Nank is invisible. Rankings had him 3rd best player on the ground last week & everyone was talking about Xerri.

Nank isn’t the problem it’s the fact he doesn’t have any support or backup. He will throw in stinkers every now and then because of exhaustion. Nank could possibly of played another 100 games in his career, but won’t as he carries most of the load. He should be second ruck now bc of his height , but we don’t have anyone near an acceptable standard in this area. Ryan is a *smile* mess and Nanks must be deflated seeing him named by the MC.
Just trying to find some positives from yesterday, there wasn't too many. Banks and Trezise played their best games for the club, and their disposal was quite good, apart from an OOTF from Trezise. Bauer kicked a couple of goals from limited opportunities.
Surely Blight plays against the Hawks, give Smith a full game.
