May not be all that bad.

It is as bad as we thought - I heard Wallace admit that we don't have enough players up to playing this level of footy. Well, FFS .... they are your team. That makes my blood boil. 5 years later and he says that. It is the stuff of nightmares when your coach actually admits something like that - even if we already knew it.

They're the same players who won their share of games last year. Truth is incontrovertibly that they cannot (or refuse to) sustain the 2009 game plan. Wallace has proven unable to turn his coaching vision into reality.

Yeah, two years ago Wallace said the Tigers would be in good shape 2009, the players recruited would be developing nicely and things would be looking really good.

2009, 1-8, yep Wallace was spot on, the players developing nicely :rofl :rofl and he can longer spin spin spin to retain his contract and thank god for that.
 
Not disagreeing with the comments regarding our list. Clearly we have deficiencies, however.......how is it that that same team can summon up the "ability" to come at Port after being over 5 goals down in the wet over there ? Against a team that are classic flat track bullies - let them get a sniff at home & they love belting up the weaker teams on the scoreboard. Against Geelong.....we also came back at them & hit the front - at Shell stadium - only to lose the game late. the dogs - first quarter good...the rest lamentable..... Brisbane ? The first half against the bombers ??? I've said it before & I'll say it again...."winning is a habit & losing is a disease"..... We have no idea how to win - the team drops it's bundle far too easily. How do you overcome it ? I don't know. Apart from winning one...winning two...winning three in a row......... We are quick to suggest sacking everyone including the tea lady, orange boy & boot studder. I say, let's get our hands on the St Kilda shrink & get him/her down to the club !!!!!

Dr Phil perhaps ??? : :help

The way everyone is carrying on about the Dons, it's like they just beat Geelong by 10 goals.

Why is it that if we had of won, it'd be that Essendon played a shocker, they're young... so on and so forth.

The Bombers beat a 1-7 team that just had the week from hell!?!?! ???

Fact is we didnt win.
More excuses?
 
Not much has really changed from last year. Last year we beat only a couple of teams in the top 8 i think. A quick look at the ladder from this year shows losses against 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th & 8th. You could argue we were in a winning position in all those games, probably barring the Doggies game.

Is our 1-8 it as bad as it looks? Maybe wait and see if we beat the teams around us (OK i know we already lost to Melbourne. That was crap).

I can see another mid-range finish from us this year.

he he he..... how many ferals fell it? Also how many ferals fell for his reasoning for topping up the list with discards because we didn't have enough mid aged players on our list? There were quite a few.

why is it that anyone with a different opinion to you is a feral? If someone thought the team was up for a good season, they simply got it wrong, it doesn't make them a feral.

I'm sick of people being labelled as ferals for believing in the club
