Crying with laughter.

What a great title for a thread.

I think I've pissed my threads.

Yeah right !

Other than Mitch Morton...( I won't include Cuz ) the rest of you that took the field can all go and *smile* yourselves...including all the coaching staff and medics.

What was confirmed tonight was WE ARE THE LAUGHING STOCK OF THE AFL.

I've never ever said that once before following the Tiges the past 32 years...but I'm gutted and I've had enough for now.

RainsyBaby

Just thought we should keep this post on record....don't want to see any retrospective editing of history when we get a win like last year :hihi
 
Re: We're only a GAME OUT OF THE 8 with percentage & 2 GAMES from a HOME FINAL !

Did anyone catch the Cats singing their theme song after the game today...it wasn't sung with any gusto...some weren't even singing...I guess that's how they rate us.

We will never gain any respect from the opposition until we win a game like that.

The Cats were flat from last week...we had a ripper 3rd term ( the kind of footy every Tiger Supporter wants to see the WHOLE GAME )...the game was there to be won at the last exchange.

No excuses...pi$$ poor effort that last quarter by us.

The Doggies game next week is CRUCIAL...we need a 4 quarter effort...if we win we're back on track.

I'd say it would be more of a reflection on how they felt about their own game.
 
Re: We're only a GAME OUT OF THE 8 with percentage & 2 GAMES from a HOME FINAL !

despite our loss to geelong. Did our percentage go up?

Well said RainsyBaby. Geelong players knew this was a practice match. Just take it easy in the first three quarters and then go up a gear when it's time too.

3 words only

WEAK AS PI$$
 
Re: We're only 2 GAMES & % OUT OF THE 8 & 3 GAMES & % from a HOME FINAL !

ok I've cooled down again.

This has to happen right now if we are going to make anything out of 2009.

1. Terry Wallace must resign or be sacked tomorrow and be replaced by Damian Hardwick for the rest of the year.
2. Jake King must not be allowed to play in the Seniors team again. No Skill or Basic Knowledge of the game.
3. Jay Schulz must not be allowed to play in the Seniors team again. Gutless !
4. Richard Tambling must be dropped to the VFL and not be allowed to play with the Senior team until he puts together a string of "best player" performances in the 2nds. Gutless !
5. Will Thursfield needs to be back in the team immediately.
6. Nathan Brown to be played permanent Forward Pocket. And if he fails, he's got to go...put Tuck to replace him on the Forward Line once some our injured midfield return.
7. Troy Simmonds must be dropped asap...a man his size should be showing some STEEL...God only knows how he is courageous enough to handle snakes yet goes hiding when the team needs him to lift. Gutless !
8. Adam Pattison should be played first ruck until Vickery is ready...at least Patto gives his all. I don't think Graham is Seniors material
9. Brett Deledio...oh my God...what is wrong with you ? I've gone to calling you a gutless wonder in your 2nd year...to apologising and feeling proud of your efforts last year...and now you are piking it again. Lift son...I know it's hard to soar like an eagle when you're surrounded by turkeys...but fight the game out like Richo does.
10. Cousins, Coughlan, Cotchin, Connors and Thompson need to be included in our 22 asap
11. Joel Bowden and Kane Johnson should not be played...they won't be there next year.
12. I'm not convinced about Edwards and Hislop...they should be dropped and made to earn their place in the side. White, Jackson and Polo need to make less mistakes but are worth persevering with.
13. I'm happy with Rievoldt, Morton...persevere with them.
14. I'm happy with McGuane, Rance, Moore...persevere with them.
15. Foley and Richo are not to blame for our pi$$ poor efforts thus far.
16. We need more leadership from Newman...he isn't as good as he was 2 years ago. Why ?

I'm so ashamed with what the players are producing in Wallace's 5th year...nothing has changed...it really is sickening watching the Bombers and the Crows youngsters winning this round playing a great brand of footy.

I'm so sick of it and embarrassed :-[

If u r not convinced edwards is a dud after those three games then I don't think u ever will be.
 
Re: We're only 2 GAMES & % OUT OF THE 8 & 3 GAMES & % from a HOME FINAL !

obviously you're not convinced about Edwards too Rolls...lol

Just thought about it more...I don't want Campbell as a replacement...he is part of this sick culture...Hardwick or Buckley for sure.
 
Re: We're only 2 GAMES & % OUT OF THE 8 & 4 GAMES & % from a HOME FINAL !
