Are we in in for a 0 win season with <50% ?

[Dr Tigris]

If we can get Big Sexy and Gibcus back on the he park for the he majority of the he season we will win games. Add a fit Meatball and Hopper and we won't even win the spoon.

Absolutely. We have a 1/2 decent team, if fit and playing decent footy.

But I just do not expect us to stay injury free and for the Ooze to have a team playing great footy. Still we won't be as bad as many are expecting.

Full season from lynch will help enormously.

Full season from lynch will help enormously.

100%, reckon it could be a tough first month or 2, then we should be competitive.

I'd be celebrating any win we get next year, but with the future firmly at front of mind....

 

[Dunger]

Full bravery next year but in the long run it will pay off

 

[sante]

Hard to see how we improve on this year

 

[Madtiger2006]

Most games we were competitive for 2-3 quarters and half a dozen full quarter efforts. The 2 blow outs against dogs and lions were when we were depleted. We had a couple players come back but were not match for. We should have quite a few competitive efforts

 

[Muddiemoose]

Don’t think we will go winless but its not going to be anything special

IF we can keep a relatively fit best 22 I wouldn’t rule out our side fairing better over last year

 

[Muddiemoose]

Hard to see how we improve on this year

I think consistency week to week and being able to drop players due to form and not having forced injury changes every week can make a bit of difference

If we can keep our squad relatively fit overall it wouldn’t write off doing better over last year but it won’t be by much

 

[Tiger_Of_Old]

We're not playing the Bloos rnd 1?

Thought this was another Mr Magic thread.

 

[Dr Tigris]

Hope we roll Geelong, wina few, are competitive, but not that competitive. And that we build that future list.

it's not really about winning this year. If we can get our existing young guys to step up a level then we win big. e.g. Sonsie coming on to AFL level would be huge. Gibcus staying fit and playing to his ability

Most games we were competitive for 2-3 quarters and half a dozen full quarter efforts. The 2 blow outs against dogs and lions were when we were depleted. We had a couple players come back but were not match for. We should have quite a few competitive efforts

We're left with a gaping wound with no rioli rebounding off half back, it's going to be grim most games but that's fine as long as some of the 3-4th year kids come on and our new recruits show glimpses

 

[Ralll]

It is possible if we have as many injuries as last season.

 

[Danog]

Depends how much Lynch plays

 

[tunksy]

Lynch Taranto gibcus and hopper play full seasons I doubt we even finish last.

Controversial I know.

Not really - well not to Tiger fans.

Lynch and Gibcus play most of the season and our forward line functions, plus Gibbo will likely tear up whatever end he plays. TT and Hops play all season and our midfield will actually exist. We could knock off a few of the not top 8 teams.

I want us to be good, but not too good. A good pick and a team that is developing well and I'll be very happy.

Maybe picks 1 and 2 - North's first and our 2nd. Look snice

Regardless of injuries we have lost 3 of our top 5 players and retirement of a champion peopleforgetting this. Got a feeling might get ugly , but their will be green shoots.
