Hi all,
The most impressive thing about the tigers game so far this year would have to be the ammount of "hard ball gets" we are producing. With Cogs, Cambo and Johnson leading the way, I'm pretty sure we have had more hard ball gets than every team we have beaten this year.
And one other statistic that is linked to this is our increase in uncontested possesions. Because our midfielders are getting the ball more often, our other guys tend to hang off the play a bit in open space waiting for the expected ball. This was very noticeable in the St Kilda Game and in the second half of the Hawthorn game.
If we keep winning the hard ball gets, I have no doubt that we will be singing our club song at the end of many more games this year! Go Tigers!! and Look out Port!
