Bit worried about the shorter turn around. We have some sore boys, Baker and Rioli were struggling yesterday. Let’s hope they get through because we need them both

It's Time!
Whateley with his concerned "state of the game" face this week,can't wait sigh.
Neutrals want him cleared but the Tiger haters in the media throwing the book at him.
apparently its all about the common man and family, the grass roots battlers who can f off for a weekend to delayed, pay for accomm, games, food, flights etc at the drop of a hat, get time off work with a snap of the fugn fingers...
another nail in the coffin of aussie rules, and another jewel in the crown of king gilbozo the fugn clown's afl cringefest reign.

Never forget Hawkins pushing Soldo into Balta causing him to do his ACL in 2020. Soldo would have been a 2 time premiership player if not for that. Is it any wonder I hate Geelol as much as the Scum, Filth and Druggos !!
MOre thought needs to go into the CBD ruck , ffs nank wins ruck with 50% more hit outs and we get slaughtered in the Clearance , now I know dimma reads this column as we started going inboard more yesterday ,,,,when the oppo are dining out on our ruck ,,,S T O P what we’re doing and throw marlion Pickett into the ruck

Libba was great too
Dumb saying that’s crept into the lexicon in the last few years. Even heard Caro say it.
It just analogy to the golf bag. The one wood being the no. 1 weapon, like the Bulldod’s weapon is clearance.
Makes no sense given that plenty of golfers have weapons better than a one wood. Phil Mickelson wouldn’t have earned much if the driver was his best club.
He looked out on his feet late in the game. I can’t remember ever seeing a player more spent. Hope it’s because he was playing his new role and just getting the tank together.
Said to myself at half time, this break couldn’t have come at a worse time.

The positive is we nearly beat them playing 20 mins of football.
They played their little leggies off for 100 minutes.

just checked the fixture. Beat the swans. Lose to the Dees then potentially win 8 straight to the bye.
If Lynch cops a week for that it's utter shit. Lloyd reckons he needed to go up with a knee and hands put to protect himself. It was a last minute contest and to predict the dogs player would go back like that is staggering that ex-afl players don't realise that. That dogs player wouldn't have been knocked out if he wasn't trying to block Lynchs path to begin with. Sure it's never good when a player gets knocked out but he put himself in that situation.
AFL can **** right off

Not sure about that, biased.
I'd start building that Ark, we are in for a c*** of a winter weather-wise.
Rain, rain and more rain!
I just watched Dimmas presser, did he give a couple clips to the AFL or was i hearing things and that journo asking about Lynch FMD.
Hs reporting lynch has a foot injury , he wasnt right , couldn’t get an inch of separation

MRO news: Tom Lynch will be sent straight to tribunal for hit on Alex Keath ... The Tigers are reeling after their second-straight loss
more news to come when this report is real and not just wishful thinking by purple and karen

If Lynch gets weeks we should appeal and get him off and then rest him anyways

We get a raw deal from the umpires - 6-years in a row of being at the bottom of the free kick differential cannot be coincidence. It’s likely because Balmey gave the snowflakes a massive bake at the end of 2016 so they give us less 50/50’s than other teams and vice versa.
When I watch Charlie Curnow get given the world it does make me wonder when you see Lynch get mauled with barely a free his way week after week - but if Lynch so much breathes on his opponent it’s a free.
The other thing that has crept in is Martin gets afforded no prior opportunity even when he’s not fending.
There are a range of reasons why you lose games of football and umpiring is one of them. We lost by 5-points. McComb was gifted a free for a goal. Back to back soft frees to JUH and Naughton gifted a goal. A dubious 50m against Graham gifted a goal. A HTB free against Baker when he’d taken 2 steps and was tackled gifted a goal. I think there was one other dubious free they got a goal from. From memory we got zero goals from free kicks.
The point is, Graham’s 50m penalty is overlooked 99% of the time if they go 25cm over the mark. The free to McComb is never given directly in front of goal. The little push in the backs can easily be let go (and usually are) and no-one bats an eyelid. Baker’s could have easily been called a ball-up for no prior etc….
But the umpires generally look to pay 50/50’s against us, and very rarely give soft frees to us, particularly in front of goal.
If you give us a few dicey ones in front of goal yesterday and none to the Dogs, we win the game. That’s not umpire bashing, that’s a fact.
All teams across a season ‘win some’ and ‘lose some’ with the umpires and it evens out. They help you win a couple of tight ones, and other times they might contribute to the loss.
But when is the last time over the last 6-years you watched a close margin Tigers game and genuinely thought “Gee, we got the rub of the green with the umpires today and probably jagged a bit of a lucky win”? I can’t recall many, if any.
They are not the only reason we lost yesterday, but the umpiring was a factor.
