Fortunate to be only 8 points down,  very fortunate

Not really with the 3 sitters we missed in the first. Sib out Harmes for Smith at halftime

[Soidee 1,496]

This, team have a golden opportunity and Goodwin again gets it wrong at selection table.

2nd qtr 

✅petty. JVR.  Trac 

✅Viney. Gawn. Trac. 
 

🤮Harmes. Woey.  Mcvee. Bowey.  Hunter.  Lots of missed tackles allowing tigers to keep movements

[McQueen 17,867]

Hunter is having a mare. 

[Rossmillan 589]

4 free kicks to 2 in a half of footy umps have put the whistle away.  
 

This game will be won by who can maintain the rage for longer

[demon3165 2,832]

Can someone explain why they think Kossie should be a midfielder?

Why, thought you are innocent until proven guilty.

Yeah, fair enough. I’m just thinking how odd these matches would seem in hindsight, should it go south. I can’t recall another example of an AFL player taking the field under such circumstances, but maybe it’s not unique.

Our tackling weak and ineffective.

Set shot Goal kicking back to our worst.

Tigers very hard at the ball and man.

Still bombing forward instead of putting the ball in front of the player.

2 frees in a half and umps ignoring our forwards being held on every entry.

Our fumbling is superb.

Still a bit unclear on why Marlion Pickett is allowed to play matches right now. Will be very strange if he’s found guilty. 

Irrelevant comment.And he’s innocent

[leucopogon 1,519]

Is it just me, or does May look like he's treading water out there? Looks injured and very slow.

If it went south he might be in jail.

[Willmoy1947 4,198]

Anything up to ten unpaid free kicks to the half.

He was like that last week....

[Red But Mostly Blue 4,558]

Oooof what a mess.

61pts against us, so far, in a half. Our backline is a mess and has been for a while. What happened to our fortress?

Typical for us to serve this [censored] after port and the lions open up an avenue to second place. 

And what the hell was that from Gus??

Kozzie back in the middle, just get Harmes to tag somebody, best use we can get from him, and EVERYBODY PULL THEIR FINGERS OUT and stop giving them cheap goals.

He has never been that quick and he's not getting any younger.

Surely not?

Not just you, looks to be injured or had lost more than a yard of pace and slow to react

So say the victims of the crime.

[leave it to deever 17,591]

Tigers with thirty more possessions. Need some more players to stand up like Trac and Viney. They can't do it all. That means you Jordan, Gus and Hunter 

We may be a goal behind but we are being well outplayed.

Tigers playing Bazball while we look like Australia. 

Why does Goody to take so long to activate the sub?

Do we have anyone else in reserve to replace Woey?He's had a good run but he's not doing much anymore.

Hopefully Chandler and Kozzie get involved in the game.

Not just you 

old slow and rubbish below knees

[dee-tox 4,835]

Our bottom six, Harmes, Chandler, Woey, Jordon, etc. really are ordinary.

[OhMyDees 1,834]

Can’t help but think Hibbo would have been able to steady our defence when under pressure. Must play next week.
