GAME DAY - Tigers v Crows

[zippadeee]

Embarrassing commentary stating that we finish 4th if Geelong win. That is embarrassingly bad by blokes that get paid to talk about footy.

They can't count.
What's Howard doing commentating AFL games.
The bloke is a joke.
The soccer commentator *smile*'s all over him

17 frees to 8. We usually fair better in finals thank christ.

I don't mind lopsided free kick counts, we always give away a lot. Its just frustrating that we seem to have different rules when it comes to decisions. Some shocking blatant errors tonight, especially around holding the ball and holding the man

Would be terrible if Aarts misses out on finals.
He has been fantastic

 

[caesar]

Shedda a lazy 18 disposals and Shai comes back to wax lyrical with him in qualifying final

If the umpires adjudicated our opposition the same way they do us we wouldn't have a lopsided free kick count. The Rioli-McAdam non HTB decision easily the worst of the season.

Shedda was outstanding coming off a spell.

Really not sure about Chol. Maybe we expect too much because of his natural athleticism and grace. He's 200cm after all. Is it fair to expect him to get up and down the ground much better than Nank?

 

[Dev Tiger]

A good clinical win. The only real downside I think was Chol. God help us if Nank goes down and we have to play him in the ruck. I think we may as well go with a Caddy/Broad. At least they will provide a contest. We missed big Soldo.

I thought goal umpire Conca looked after us OK.

Ive done a review of all the decisions and they were all correct.

 

[zippadeee]

Aarts doesn't look good. Been important with his pressure. Hopefully nothing serious

Serious watch 1.14 left the last qtr.
Goes to tackle Crouch and pulls up straight away holding his shoulder.

 

[shad]

I reckon Port will chuck it v Pies. Fancy themselves v us at home.

I don't reckon. We were struggling then but we are clearly the form team at the moment.

 

[zgod]

Its ours to lose.

That will be a joy to watch, the master magician and the apprentice mesmerizing the opposition

Nup. He should be delisted. Experiment over.

Bloody shame too.

 

[Djevv]

They're still going on about us playing Port in the first week of finals. Just embarrassing

This is possible if Brisbane win and Port lose.

 

[tigerlove]

I reckon Port will chuck it v Pies. Fancy themselves v us at home.

We comfortably beat Geelong and West Coast in the last 4 games. Why would Port prefer to play us?

 

[Willo]

If all fit players are available, surely Castagna has to be in line to make way for someone better.

Makes way for Bolton

 

[tigerlove]

Cotchin only 64% game time. Lowest in the team

 

[AngryAnt]

It's an absolute scandal ... but some on PRE think the AFL do a wonderful, totally equitable job all round - fixturing, umpiring, penalties and suspensions, media coverage.
Nothing to see here.

As I said before the game, the AFL did us a big favour the back half of the season. Our last four/five games we had longer breaks than all our opponents, and didn't travel until this game. Easy victory for us despite the naysayers, and gave us a good look at Adelaide Oval again in case we cop Port in our first final.

Sorry Leon, but I'm on Ross Lyon's side. We'll go anywhere and play anyone and won't whinge and sook about it.
