Everyone loves the Tigers and I have no idea why.  They don't play a brand of footy, nor have the cattle, that will hold up in September.  Matthew Lloyd was even calling Dimma the 'Coach of the Year'.  I hope they keep pumping up their tires as their fall will be all the more enjoyable when it happens.

Edit - and by everyone I mean them media.  We all know every neutral fan hates the Tigers.

tigers are good to watch i think.

they are a bit like us in that they've been super-competitive in nearly every game (bar the crows for them).

dimma is rightly being hailed as he's completely revolutionised their game style over one summer, where they're now playing with run and dash, and only have 1 tall forward (riewoldt) supported by five small runners (rioli, butler, castagna, lloyd, and now bolton) and as such their forward pressure is also really strong.

    Heretic!

    Can someone man up on Grigg please? Soft as butter he is, yet teams let him run out on his own every game. Even Richmond's blind kicks find him.

    Nichols without doubt the worst umpire in the game...

    Happy we don't have him tomorrow.

    Dunstall: they missed the opportunity of Sinclair all on his own in a two-on-one!

    Not as bad as 7's experts, but gee not much better!

    I'll call it now - Tigers will still lose this game of footy.

    You can't keep up this manic pressure for 4 quarters. The Saints can't, Collingwood had a fair crack on Monday but it wasn't good enough for 4 quarters. 

    You could tell it dropped off towards the end of the 2nd quarter just then. 

    I'Ve already won my money so hopefully the Swans have weathered the storm and come back to win by a point.

    I hope the swans come back and win. There is just something funny about Richmond losing especially when they have had the lead all game.

    How's that for a stage from Rance there?

    Centre stage with a spotlight solo! And the judges all give him the thumbs down.

    Carn bloods...just to see toiges sook

    I cant believe people are trying to say Rance could be up there with the greatest fullbacks of all time. What rubbish. Firstly he hardly ever takes the opps best forward, he usually goes 3rd man up and he gets support now. 

    You cant compare him to the likes of Silvagni and Scarlett and others who had to complete with great forwards like ablett, Dunstall, Carey Plugger who did it 1 on 1.

    Anyone else think that there's more free kicks being paid by the non-officiating umpires this weekend?

    Range... Rance... Rance you are such a soft on. Pathetic dive, goes against all of your religious teachings doesn't it.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
