Who said this or who planned that or why did such and such do this, etc, etc??? The speculation and endless scenarios are too much for me.
Bring on Staurday, play some decent footy and do what you're paid to do Tigers - win some games!!
 
Like I said in another thread, expect this club to embarass their supporters once again on Saturday night. The rot has set so deep it's irresversible.
 
Yes I agree with Maleny Tiger, bring on Saturday night!

Hopefully the firm stance by the Board & Management will filter down & galvanize the playing group.

I admire your optimism Royce--but I have this sinking feeling this could go down like the" gaspargate "affair aginst Geelong a couple of years ago---the 157 point belting!!!

From what's come out the last day or two, I'm starting the think the same. We have a divided playing group, a division between coaching staff and players and a coach that expects not to have the job next year. All that doesn't augar well for a 'spirited' performance.

Agree - I would be amazed if we dont get belted.
 
Maybe i'm an optimist too but I think the ONLY way the playing group can respond to this week is a team-oriented effort and a win. I'll be bitterly disappointed if we lose.
 
Wouldn't it be ironic if Matthew Knights delivered the devastating knockout blow!

Not really, he would just be king hitting someone already down on their knees, half out. :hihi

I've got plenty of fears and hopes for this Saturday, I'll say one thing though...

It's been painful to watch us play this year, and especially knowing the season is over so early, but after the last 48 hours...

I'll take anything else. I've looking forward to watching us play again and being able to talk about a football GAME.

Agree....i expect a pantsing this week. If it does turn out to be a flogging, then surely Terry would wave the white flag?

yep hate to say it but i agree, i think this weeks goings on will definitley have a negative effect on players etc, it could get very messy against bummbers.

Surely TW will have to walk if we cop a shellacking this week. But I dont think we will, I think Sheedy will work some inspirational magic on the team. Will also be interesting to see who out of the seniors gets a Coburg geurnsey this week - what goes around comes around.

Tend to agree Toigs, looking forward to the team selection this week.

Yesterday I was able to put the few pieces together and it looked positive - the players looked united.

Now that I've seen more pieces (especially if I believe what Wilson had to say in "Johnson led Tiger revolt"), the puzzle isn't looking good at all. More of a rabble than I hoped.

This match has got a bit of a pre-Gaspergate feel about it. Ohhh - I still shudder thinking about that game.

If we're going to play a Gaspargate type game then we should wear our Centenial Jumpers so that we can look back on this game as the worst ever. Currently we have the gaspargate destruction and the "C" game as equal top. best to have a single game to benchmark ourselves on.
