That was a freakish game. I watched at home.
If Saints played that way every week, they would have been Premiers easily. Unstoppable.
1998 or 99, round 22 at the G. Richmond v Melbourne. Winner makes the finals. Loser finishes 9th.
We got flogged. Jeff Farmer had a field day. Drunken Melbourne flogs all around me.
Very nasty atmosphere after the game, a lot of extremely disappointed Tiger fans.
Edit - it was 1998. Farmer took mark of the year. In front of me.

Round 9 vs Melbourne, May 17, 2014
1st game after Tom Hafey's death.
We didn't fire a shot.
One of the most insipid performances I've ever attended.

Can’t remember the year but travelling to Sydney to watch us play Norf.
Carey went nuts
Edit: the other one is McCartney retirement match at the bubble. Absolutely disgusted with that game.

Was there...
Watching Carltoon slowly close the gap to win...
Was like standing on the deck of a slow sinking ship took an eternity for the water to rise from my toes to the top of my head...
Was there too...
McCartney was on fire that night...kicking goals from his Ace!

EFA: never going to be allowed to win that
Worst game I attended was at Waverly...Tigers V Hawks...
Bloody cold and bloody wet even a touch of hail...an absolute slugfest of mud, rain, darkness and points!
Enormous amount of points kicked something like 4 goals 26 points...raining points by both sides!
Could not tell the difference in Footy guernseys...it was so muddy and wet...even the Umpires were brown..so were the fecking seagulls! And come to think orff it, so were the bloody cold chips! Beer was the same!
So much rain fell down that game...I could not fully concentrate on the game played...all I could think orff was...feck I need a whiz...gee a whizzer would be nice! And looking backwards to see where the toilets were!
From hazy memory I think we won the game finally by 4 points...late in the last Quarter!
Had to have the ground lights on cos it was dark as...grey as...black as...wet as...the rain battered down on your head and shoulders!
Had to stop breathing when watching the slugfest otherwise the white condensation coming out from your mouth obscured your vision of the game played!
Then to top it all orff...the cherry on the top! or rather the the ice-cream on the cone!
I forgot where I parked the fecking Kombi...
Ended up walking around the ground twice in rain and mud searching for a bright yellow Kombi...
It was like a giant fecking yellow Banana when I got to the ground and first parked it! Stood out like dogs balls!
How hard can that be searching for a giant fecking yellow banana! Black as, dark as, heavy rain as...and MUD!!!
And all the time I was wearing and walking around in pristine woollen Ugg boots...
By the time I found the now brown Kombi...only cause most of the car park had emptied, and I was worried about being locked in for the night!
I had to pour the water out orff both Ugg Boots...roughly 5 and 1/2 pints of muddy water in each Ugg!
And drove the now brown Kombi home in cold freezing wet bare feet, cos the heater was not working!
Those Ugg Boots cost me heaps and they were a comfortable size 12...spesh made in NSW.
Took me roughly a week to dry the UGGs out, spinning them dry in the washing machine...rained all that week!
By the time I had dried out my Whizz Bang Ugg Boots...they must have been the size of sleeping bags from all the stretching my feet did to them walking in the rain...I never ended up fixing the Kombi heater boxes...cos my dear old brother sold the Kombi on me!

That's really quite a remarkable record, TT!
Absolutely need to crowd fund this legendary cooler Blooze & Poyz '24 memberships ASAP folks.
**** it, let's run a secret campaign to get him voted onto both their boards.
Wait...are you already on the Essendon board?
And FWIW, It was the K-Hunt game for me.
Still have occasional nightmares.

We are everyones grand final lol.

Perfect day that day and we fired blanks.

The Geelong game at KP in 2017 where the umps were B.O.G. for the moggies.
But we had sweet revenge and did not lose a game after that.

2014 Elimination final against Port, had a Brisbane supporting mate come along to the game with me even got him to wear a Tigers Guernsey, got absolutely demoralised by a bunch of little port supporting kids heckling us on the way out

every game we played North at docklands i been to was a nightmare
something about getting done by a shyte side at a negative energy generator of a ground with half the oval obscured by a fugn giant pillar
i know I've sat through worse and managed to find that lunatic laugh somewhere through the 3rd qtr, where it just becomes hilarious that we are the laughing stock of footy
but i never seem to get out of the despair phase at docklands vs norf

I went to that shithole ground , terrible venue
Even worse supporters.
Only game I attended in 2017 was the return game in the last game of the season, I flew over with my wife and one of my daughters and was a little worried because it was the second best Reiwoldts last game, fortunately things went a little better in that game than the earlier one.
