GAME DAY Tiges v Lions

We might as well forfeit the second half. What hope do we have against such blatant bias and cheating? We’ve done brilliantly to be this close.

I’ve never seen anything like that first half.

Our players are rattled and their confidence is up because the umpires are giving them everything and free rein and we are scared to touch the ball or man because we will get a free against. This is just absolutely rigged. We are not allowed to win. It is an AFL directive. I am now sure of it.
20 to 6 free kicks in a half. With one of them a mark paid as a free kick to us. We don’t get 20 frees in two full games. Sorry it is unwatchable. Love my Tigers but it’s giving me a coronary watching this *smile*!

Going to get ugly in the 2nd half. Missing midfield is showing clearly tonight. Youngsters struggling to get into game. Have said it before. Ross is a nothing player. Dont understand why they keep picking him

Naish/RCD/Ralphsmith not have much impact. Tough to see us winning when you add the umpiring discrepancy.
 
20 frees to 6.

We deserve to be behind on the count, but 20 to 6 ? Cmon. There’s just abject bias out on that ground. Abject.

They’ll pay a HTB to Blandbane in a heartbeat, a high tackle, anything gray ... but us ? Anything remotely of the equivalent ? No way.

It’s just outright one way umpiring.

It's OK. Umps will see the stats and start paying frees for us when we get the ball to the defensive wing position. Or blow a couple of advantages when we're already broken free.

Astbury and Houli look finished tonight but have credits. Naish not going to make it IMO. RCD is poor defensively so can see the concerns.

Broad, Balta and Aarts have been our best.

20 free kicks to 6 are u kidding me!

This is blatant cheating. It has resulted in 3 goals to Brisbane
 
Rioli and Castagna 3 disposals each. At least 2 of Castagna's were in the backline. We can't keep carrying the two of them. Surely at some stage a role playing forward needs to have disposal and scoring influence.
