No real surprise. Crude incidents like that one don't belong in footy.

I HOPE THAT HYDE GETS 3

I hope that Hyde gets 3.

I'd like to see this young guy gets 3 matches with plenty of game time to show us what he can do.

Should have got 6, a dud

That's ridiculous. It was unecessary, it was reckless, it was not in the spirit of the game, it was NOT worth 6 weeks though.

Hopefully Tim will have a good think about how he plays and learns how to channel his agression in different directions.

I am pretty confident Tim will still be a Tiger next year.

Does this make room for Pettifer to give one last gasp to show that he has some balls and is willing to get a hard ball if thrown into the middle? If he really wants an AFL carrer with all the trappings that go along with it now is the time to step up.

Hope you are reading this Kayne!! Last chance mate!

Ok, 6 weeks might have been harsh, but he deserved every one of the three he copped

According to channel 10, he is out of contract, and this could be the end of him

Heard he is out of contract at the end of this year and hopefully Miller does the right thing and doesn't offer him a new contract. A total embarassment he is.

If we are only going to offload 6 or 7 players at the end of the year i dont think Fleming should be one of them. I'd rather see Houlihan, King, Pettifer, Biddiscombe, Mills, Nicholls and Hilton go before Tim does.

As to his report, if he hadn't hit Reiwoldt right on the sweet spot i think it is arguable that he wouldn't have even got reported. it just so happened that the tiip of his elbow caught him right on the jaw. A couple of inches wider and he would have missed him completely. That Reiwoldt went down in such a horrific way however sealed Fleming's fate. 3 weeks is fair IMO.

I'd keep Hilton way ahead of Fleming no doubt. Other than that you are pretty spot on about who we should delist JohnF. Is there anyway we could sneak rogers in that list?

Last chance???

If this goose is in a Tiger guernsy next year, the RFC can just about kiss my membership goodbye. He has all the traits of a player who can not and will not play at an AFL standard. If the RFC persist with players like this, we have another 20 years of doldrums to look forward to.

We can only hope Harry. But he'll probably hold the club to ransom with that rediculous contract they offered him.

What was the contract JF??? I know he has another year left on it but do you know an approximate $$$ amount?

I have 3 houses, I'm willing to sell one of them for the cause if that helps......... ;D

LOL, being Spud's favourite, I'd say he's on 250,000 - plus tips.

First we have a S.O.S (sack our spud) appeal. I can now envisage a P.O.O.R (pay out our rogers) appeal.

Newmo, are these houses you speak or made out of cardboard? I think that's the only type of house he'd take.

By the way, I haven't gone to sleep yet, just finished watching Hewitt and Poo lose in the first round of the Cincinatti Masters. Hewitt has become a rabble, just like the Tigers.

Hewitt is a *smile*, from those that went to school wiht him think he is the biggest tosser they have ever met. I get that impression jsut by watching him and his antics. IT was teh racist comments to that linesman a while back that sealed it for me.

Just a bit of extra trivia, Brad Ottens went to the same school as Lleyton Hewitt (Imaanuel College) and one of my good mates was a boarder with Otto and reckons he is an absolute champion and good bloke.

And 3 games was fair for Fleming.

The best thing about LLeyton is his father's football background with the Tigers. Someone once pointed out that quite ironically Lleyton backwards is not yell.

COME ON

Flemming's only an average player himself but if the rest of the team showed as much balls and aggression as he does we might be half decent.
