What a great Tiger crowd at the G yesterday ...76k plus, that’s bloody outstanding for a Sunday arvo, I got to Richmond around 11 and there was Tiges everywhere , The London was pumping by 12-30 , simply just a ripper day to be a Tiger.
I saw someone throw a "cut lunch" but as far as I saw it didn't connect
People forget we do not win the stats Pagan mentioned after the game - clearances, contested possessions, disposals etc etc. We are unique, you cannot look at stats in our games and work out who won. The only stat we consistently win is FA.
Brown OTC has lost the plot, he just said they'll win it. So much upside. Although Brown has form with ridiculous statements - eg Naughton as the best contested marking game ever . Brown the clown.

Tiger Army.Was Brisbane 5th biggest crowd ever ...only their 4 GFs were bigger.
Beat their biggest H&A crowd by 15,000
We also win the scoreboard stat consistently. Not sure that’s as important as clearances and contested possessions according to David King, Jono Brown, Dixon etc.People forget we do not win the stats Pagan mentioned after the game - clearances, contested possessions, disposals etc etc. We are unique, you cannot look at stats in our games and work out who won.

If it’s a Richmond player then yes. Anyone else gets off.Maybe, but what about the potential to cause more serious injury, I seem to remember that was given as a reason to suspend a player earlier this year. Must be consistent.

That's for sure...I sensed something was up,when the Carpark at my station was fuller than I have seen it for a Sunday game...took 10 minutes to get off the platform at Richmond (mental note to self go out the Swans st end exits during finals)
Absolutely correct. Remember laying on the floor after a big Easter Sunday lunch listening to the game on the radio.No we played there pretty sure it was Easter Sunday in 2017, we won to go 4 - 0
Getting out at Brunton Ave is generally fine on the way in, but going home, I head straight for the Swan St Bridge and go in the other end. Was never like this when I was a kid and we had the old inefficient cardboard tickets. Technology: delivering more wasted time than you ever thought possible.

If we hadnt left 3 goals in the first ( all from Georgie boy ) they wouldnt have come back.
Stats are meaningless to us, but we cant allow Neale to get that many again on a smaller ground . The only stat that matters is the final score .
Really want to smash them now more than ever.
But they are at least a 4 goal better side with their home ground advantage plus umpires gunning for Grimes will make a close game.
