A bit of symmetry

[Pates 9,537]

1) coach is a joke - takes the huge cheque and expends his mental energy on the solarium;

2) list is appalling;

3) kids may well be among the worst in the comp despite a prolonged rebuilding period;

4) have no genuine superstars - and not a single kid that we can bank on being a "superstar";

5) have failed to produce a single matchwinning player apart from Richo; and

6) FUTURE IS BLEAK!

This is from a poster named "Turbo Tiger" in the tigers forum. I found it kind of funny because there have been some pretty similar things been said on here and Demonology.

Commiserations BTW to the toigs supporters, worse than over by half time. I can't imagine a more painful thing to endure.

couldn't happen to a nicer team

Yes, pretty sad todays showing by the tigers. I thought they were a lot better than that. Must be shattering for their supporters and not good for the game in general. Much sympathy to them, at least our side put in close to 100% effort, although skills were still down.

Now they are playing Atlas !! vbg !!

Don't think it was as bad, but I remember being at the 'G one afternoon for a match vs the Cats and we'd barely scored come half-time. Back in the Lyon days iirc.

yeah the only solace i got from yesterdays game was that we arent as bad as that mob and we're not on the bottom any more...

[dazzledavey36 49,150]

atleast our kids are way better! oh and we do have an up and coming champion called brock mclean :D

[mordja 187]

Jones showing early signs of being as good.

I might be showing my age but there is something much worse, and I witnessed if first hand.

Yes on a cold day at Artic Park in 1979 when Fitroy recorded the highest score ever kicked against US with a winning margin of 190 points NOT a measly 157 like the tigers supporters suffered.

Go Dees - Never again please

Fitroy recorded the highest score ever kicked against US

I was there

[beelzebub 22,271]

I had managed to purge that memory !! thanks :-(( lol

it was a bloody miserable day all round...

even worse than '87

[Anders 14]

We're not as bad as Richmond. Not that that provides much comfort.

If we lose to them - Daniher gone.

Way back in '79 we did get the mother of all hidings from Fitzroy out there at Arctic Park, but I think I'm right in remembering that we climbed up off the floor and beat the Bombers at the MCG the very next Saturday. That's a fair turn around: 190 point loss to a four or five goal win in the space of a week.

[deanox 8,762]

i cant imagine they will come back this week...
