Sigil 1,002 Posted August 3, 2019 Posted August 3, 2019 Loving Fritter in the forward line, because he's a forward. It's crazy I know, but it works. 5 1

John Crow Batty 8,892 Posted August 3, 2019 Posted August 3, 2019 We are doing well aside from maggot infestation. Good to see players hitting up targets rather than bombing inside 50. Big question is can we not fall away in the last quarter as we have done last three rounds? 3 1 1
Gunna’s 2,107 Posted August 3, 2019 Posted August 3, 2019 We need a royal commission into the umpires This must run deep to match fixing and corporate $$$’s for tv rights and other media 1 1
Graeme Yeats' Mullet 6,792 Posted August 3, 2019 Posted August 3, 2019 Deplorable tackle count still, only 17 in a half We have so many loose armed missed tackles 1

Wells 11 5,502 Posted August 3, 2019 Posted August 3, 2019 Preuss looks like a liability out there in general play. Sooo slow. Good pressure by the dees and, as mistake ridden as it is, I like the style better when we’re focused on attacking like this.n 1
Dame Gaga 2,453 Posted August 3, 2019 Posted August 3, 2019 If I hear Ling talk about the "corridor" one more time, I will throw my Funk and Wagnall's at his head. 2 2
Dee Since 73 267 Posted August 3, 2019 Posted August 3, 2019 Brereton showing us no respect on Fox Footy, Implying he was on his phone for much of the first half. We cop it from all sides and sit and take it. 2
FireInTheBennelly 4,104 Posted August 3, 2019 Posted August 3, 2019 It's all very clear to me now. We need cows grazing on the G through the week, and extra dung beetles brought in to boost numbers. That will reduce the fly population, and, ergo, fewer maggots. 3 6
The heart beats true 18,201 Posted August 3, 2019 Posted August 3, 2019 Love that a Tigers player drags the ball 20 metres from goal and the umpire yells out ‘already on the ground when he grabbed’. Where was that rule 2 weeks ago? That rule is far too unevenly applied. In general umpires decisions are purely based on perception of who is the better player/club. 3 1
Brownie 6,086 Posted August 3, 2019 Posted August 3, 2019 Just now, Rusty Nails said: Easily our best half of footy for the year given the quality of the Opp. Yep. I think we'll lose and it's just our mad skillz that are letting us down. Just great to finally see forward entries and shots at goal now working more effectively. Rawlings? It's such a confidence thing and I'm sure we'll lose that and the wind will go out of our sails. Geez I love Frosty. He's been such an ordinary player that has just kept working on his game. We'll really miss Jetta and May in the end. 2
Cam Schwab's Whiteboard 209 Posted August 3, 2019 Posted August 3, 2019 Heard an umpire say that Ra Richmond player wasn't holding the ball because he was already on the ground. Where was that rule for Gawn a few weeks ago? The inconsistency in umpiring is a disgrace, and the AFL only have themselves to blame. 6 2
Red But Mostly Blue 4,632 Posted August 3, 2019 Posted August 3, 2019 (edited) Great half! Maxxy looked possessed out there! Trac, Fritter, Frosty - awesome stuff! Some of those runs by Frosty sent shivers down my spine. I'll take Frost ball any day of the week. I know we've turned it over a bit, and there are still lots of problems with basic skills, but I love that we're trying different things. Fewer long bombs, actual direction, they're thinking, and trying. Much better. These are some of the things we can build from. Edited August 3, 2019 by RedButMostlyBlue 3

What have we done in the last 30-50 years ... he’s played against & saw the rabble we have been & apart from 2 gf which we lost to him by 96points we continue to unravel & can’t sustain success. You need to earn respect by winning something not pretending! 1

whatwhat say what 23,855 Posted August 3, 2019 Posted August 3, 2019 brereton is a drunken buffoon gotta say, ecstatic with our effort - again, it's our execution letting us down tigers are missing, what, three players from best 22? all top tenners in rance, nank, and cotchin, but still...we're playing with the likes of corey wagner and kennedy harris for us, plus children like baker and dunkley! trac outstanding thru midfield - can he keep it up? 2
