Game Day Thread - Weagles vs Tiges: rnd 18, 2023

[Tigers of Old]

First task is to win & get the 4 points.
Never easy in the West no matter what the ladder says so need to take this game seriously.
Then hopefully we can put a margin on them.

This game has got me a little nervous. I hope we "bore in " hard from the start and take the crowd out of it.

 

[YeOldeTiger]

If we can at least break even with the umpires today we should beat up on these winged buzzards. Whenever we play this mob in Perth we seem to get reamed.

Hoping Dusty continues his good form and Shai has another day out .

Go Tiges!

We need to have a huge win to help our lowly percentage, that is a given.
That being the case, who is going to kick a bag for us?
No Lynch of course, so have to rely on the forwards of Cotchin, Baker, Graham, Miller, Riewold and Martin.
All are capable of a few goals, but none kick bags of them.
That means, if I am correct, we have to rely on the mids to do some good work.
Thoughts?

If we win by 200 pts we'll jump above the Blues but the AFL record is 190 pts by Fitzroy back in 1979! Going to be a challenge.

The Weagles did defeat GWS in round 2, I might add.
Their only win to date, so please do not make us their 2nd win.

LOL that little Dusty gets business class while big Samson and Noah are squeezed together in economy.

I’m tipping we won’t be thrashing them, it’ll be a moderate win.

I’m tipping we won’t be thrashing them, it’ll be a moderate win.

But if we can win by 200 pts. We’ll leap frog Carltoon to 10th on the ladder.
We only have to out score them by 50pts per quarter. 8 to 9 goals.
if Jack can kick 25 goals we’ll come close to doing it.

Obligatory....

Mini should put the challenge out to the players: Minimum 5 goals a quarter.

 

[Tigaman]

Not a cloud in the sky here today in Perth so should be fast game. I do not go to WC games but with Tiger membership grand son working away FIFO & Eagles on the bottom could not resist the offer to go & see The Tiger Firm. Go Tigers .Eat em Alive Tigers.

 

[saigon tiger]

I smell a Lost in Space Dr Smith game today. Danger Danger. Won't be a walk in the park!

 

[Tigers of Old]

Yes in case anyone thinks today will be a guaranteed walk in the park.
