Excellent win. Only saw first half as the 5-year-old stuggles to get through a whole game. Great performance. Hard at the ball, kicking longer and with purpose and taking on opposition.
The young group are improving before our eyes. Only negative is that we may win more than four games and not finish last, which will hurt us in the draft. However, if that's the case, then so be it. I'd rather see the group continue to improve than tank.
In a good team effort, standouts were obviously Riewoldt (one of the best body on body contested marks I've seen - I'll back him in against anyone); Lids; Tuck (in best form of his career); Martin (superb 1st half for a 1st year player); Graham (thought he beat WC rucks); Newman and Cousins (getting back to form and will go on into 2011 if he keeps this up).
It was exciting to see and cofirms that we're on the right track.

I agree the best game i've seen him play for tigers.
They where all good today. Great Day for the Tigers and us as Fans :clap :clap :clap :clap
liked the form of edwards today along with many others...
add foley to that midfield would cause a lot of sides headaches...
great win by the tigers, even when they dropped their intensity early in the 3rd
a bit, they regained their composure
and put the pedal down....
so much to like about the performance moving forward......

Agree, Edwards was great coming out of the backline today. Weaving through traffic... As was Connors with that raking left foot of his. Will only get better as he gets used to the quickness of AFL football again.
I still cringe when King has the ball (still stuffed up a few times today), but no-one's ever questioned his intensity, and he came through today with a top notch effort.
Mcguane and Moore were fantastic in the back line, and White, who I'm no huge fan of did extremely well with his pace today.
Griffiths was the only quiet one, but he has a perfectly good excuse for that.

Dimma tells him to turn it over 3-4 times a game?
Had a good game today though, and I've always loved his intensity. But even today, he fluffed a few possessions.

Remarkable post.
If you look up 'glass-half-empty' in the dictionary, you'll see a picture of thejinx...

He also created opportunites (contested possessions/tackling) for the Tigers more than 3 or 4 times.
