Every time I hear Neil Balme talk I am so rapt he found his way back to Tigerland.
Such a calming voice to represent our club without any of the BS game playing others push out into the media.
I can only imagine that for all the things we see in the media, he would be adding as much, if not...
An interesting article on based on performances over the las t2 years would a team made up of any top 10 draft pick over time beat a team of any picks outside the top 10
What I found most gratifying 4 of the 5 positions in our spine are in the teams being Rance, Dusty, Lynch and Jack with...
Keeping it simple this week.
With a picture of a tiger with a chef's hat and a few Magpies in a cauldron with the following caption
Tigers playing at the MCG
Sounds like a successful Recipe
I was faced with the conundrum this week after investing in a new jumper as to which number to get on the back.
The short list (in number order) that missed out were
Grimes, Prestia, Dusty, Jacka and Cotch
I went with Tigga's number 1 as i love the uncompromising, no nonsense, straight up way...
It was always going to be different second time around.
The lustre of the Tiger story, in the wilderness for so long, sleeping giant supporter base, no flag for 37 years, etc are all well and truly gone. The feel good story of 2017 is no longer........but I guess a membership base of 100k...
Last one for the regular season, My suggestion might need a super size banner again
The 2016 bulldog flag proved a premiership was not too big an ask
Peggy, Benny, Cotch and the boys then delivered on our own premiership task
Whilst the doggies still appear to be satisfied with their 2016 flag...
The bombers are in great form
A couple of injuries maybe pushing them closer to the abyss
The funny thing for me however is
I think it hurts us more if Goddard is to miss
It can be hard to come up with banner rhymes each match
But this week is a cinch
Tom, you may no longer be welcome at Carrara
So feel free to use our facilities, use locker no 19, marked ‘Tom Lynch’
I have seen a few thoughts in other threads. Let the creative juices flow.
The return match is here between the Tigers and the Pies
A game that will attract close to 100,000 sets of eyes
There is really no place any Tiger would want to be
As we notch up a record breaking 18 in a row at the G
The Annual Maddie’s match, a chance to donate for Tiger and Saints fans
Traditionally a tussle between the champions of the Riewoldt clan
As good as Nick was, and nothing to do with his career coming to a halt
To Tiger fans it is clear, we have always had the best Riewoldt
I struggled again with this one. I look forward to seeing some much better efforts
In September last year you played at the G in front of 90,000 Tiger fans,
A cauldron with Yellow and Black fever, in every child, woman and man
This time the crowd will be much smaller, Our forward line still no...
2nd go around v the Crows....have fun
You beat us in round 2, retribution the dominant headline
Congratulations on the win, but any win in March is more a by-line
Now you come back to the G, where last September your players seemed to be in a trance
Or maybe that was the after effects of the...
A little early but in case others are looking to be creative to fill in time over the bye weekend, please feel free.
Cheers
A home game for the Tigers away from the MCG
Given our membership base, there could be fans hanging from the proverbial tree
No London, Cricketer’s Arms or Royal the...
Sh*t I hate losing. I look forward to seeing a few banners to cheer up spirits for the pre bye game v the Cats.
Another away game against the cats
That could of course be played at the Cattery
I hope the AFL has made a deal with Saxa
Given how Salty the Cats will be playing the Tiger’s at our...
Plenty of content to play with this week, enjoy. Below is my effort:-
We head to the Adelaide Oval, for the second time this year
This time to play the Power, for which very few shed a tear
Our biggest worry might be, a fire burning bright
With Kane Cornes an ‘out’ for the fire brigade and...
I had to rethink the message after the Bombers manage to win a couple. Looking forward to seeing some creative masterpieces this week.
A couple of wins in a row, the Bombers are beginning to stir
Wins against the Giants and Cats, their engines starting to Whirr
But this week they host the...
This is a lot more fun after a win
A group of first round draft picks
You think should be the dream
For the saints becoming more a nightmare
As whilst they have the crop, they didn't get the cream
Off to WA to play at the Craypot,
At the new home of WA footy,
Awaits a massive top of the table clash
And whilst Nic Nat may be on fire,
The Tiges are all good whilst Nank is wearing the Sash
I am looking forward to this weeks offerings, here is my attempt.
There was once a team from the North who tried to steal Dusty
Coached by a Scott brother who is always Crusty
The farm they offered up
Dusty instead stayed and we won the Cup
And as they say, the rest is history
I really struggled this week. Hopefully there are a few other posters with more creativity.
Up to now,
Coming up with banners has not been a chore
But after spending a few hours thinking hard,
I have come to realise Freo are such a bore
Yes, last year Mundy kicked a goal after the siren...
Quick turnaround so on to rd 6.....
Thanks to the Magpies for hosting us at our MCG
For a casual Sunday afternoon game no less
Unfortunately for the so called Collingwood Army
They are about to realise the G is an impenetrable Tiger fortress
Thankfully our cheer squad can spell, unlike those down at Pie land
Round 4 v Brisbane
The Lions have set a new course,
a new coach and youngsters the story
to which as Tigers we say a huge thanks,
For Leppa was a key to our Premiership glory
Not sure I like this feeling of not winning. Happy to move on;
Welcome to the MCG
Home of the close to 90 thousand strong Tiger crew
To make your member’s feel welcome
We have bowls of water and bones available at gate 2
I can't help but enjoy listening to Dimma and the way he communicates. I think it was there last year, not just since the GF win
On the Couch was yet another great interview. Gone are the cliches and predictable defensive answers and replaced is honest open responses. I know it must be so...
I thought about
Tigers are the best, Chuck out the rest
but landed on the following
"We climbed our Everest
2017 'to do' list all done
Unfortunately for all you Campaigners,
The Tiger train has only just begun"
