Can't believe as soon as the Rd 1 team has been announced the usual whipping boys are copping a caning already.  How about waiting to see how they actually perform, and how others stand up at Coburg, before calling for players' heads?  Past prejudices count for nothing in a new season where players should be judged on their merits following the game rather on than their past history or personal prejudices against them.

Support the boys. :gotigers

BTW in "Eat 'em Alive" the 'em refers to the opposition not our own team. ;)
 
That's what we can use the tea towel for!!!

Wiping the slate clean!!!

Brilliant idea Rosy.

but if we get whipped by the Blues on Sunday and the usual suspects go missing..

Why "the usual suspects" though?  Far better to discuss any player that goes missing, and any player that performs well too..even the usual suspects.  ;)
 
Nice idea, but I think the only chance Tiva has of not being scapegoated for a least one loss this year is if we go undefeated and he wins the brownlow.

Poor bloke has it coming then!
 
The day when Tivva and anyone elses goal costing turnovers get them dropped because of the pressure on the team for places will be a very, very happy day. Unfortunately probably in 2008 not 2007.
 
Let's try and embrace the future, and displace the past !!!
Round 1 is a chance to start again.

They won the NAB
That's done and dusted,
Here come the TIGES
And we're keen as mustard.

Enough of the talk,
It's time to roar,
Here come the Blues,
Let's show 'em the door !!
