Tigers vs Suns thread - Who's Going to Cairns??

[Ox]

Going by twitter Hardwick was very short at his post match presser.
Be interesting to read what he said.

Why ?

If this was a one-off shocker, I'd wait until tomorrow to calm down, and then post. But if our "efforts" against Melbourne, Carlton and Essendon weren't bad enough, this was, and it deserves all the rage it will no doubt get. Seriously, to think that we were "finals contenders" 3-4 weeks ago... Port Adelaide must now feel threatened for bottom spot. Utterly DISMAL performance, for the 4th week in a row.

Is that avatar you, Dizza?

It is. Was on Ch10, Round 1 last year.

Here's a snippet

You know (deep breath) and I'll keep emphasise with the group that we need to play out games.
It's bitterly disappointing for the footy club and its supporters if we keep dishing up up performances like that. (deep breath)

[Jackstar is back again]

too much spin
its not about playing out games Dimma
Its how you play the game.
Go and watch the Pies or the Cats and see how they play, hard fast footy

All but about 5 who post on this site are living in la la land.

Claw has made more sense in the last 2 years than everyone else put together including veterans like WP.

Talk of the rebuild is over, we are on the way up are the most funniest things over read since the tanned one was in charge.

How can you possibly expect to win with these 10 duds getting walk up starts in our 22.

No one with half a brain can honestly expect without a shadow of a doubt that we would beat GC today. I know i didnt!!

I slapped a nice amount on GC in the 3rd at 3/1. Baby seat paid for.

Dimma has had a poor month but he needs to stay for 3 years at the least to see it through. We need to see if he can coach. the issue is if he cant we would possible let go a golden opportunity to get Malthouse.

Can he coach time will tell but we have gone backwards in 12 months?
My biggest concerns are our tackle count is down so players are not listening to him, he still recruits players who cant kick and Conca "the hidden gem" is too short IMO to be the player we all hope he will be. At best he will be a back pocket player. Waste of a pick said it from day one.

IMO the biggest mistake he made is to come to a club like RFC with no experience in his coaching team. Not all clubs need experience but RFC does.

The sooner some of you get it in your head that we wont be making finals for at least 2-3 years the better you will feel.

I feel good now. Free baby seat means more than expecting our pathetic team would win.

[J Buckthorn]

We are a joke. To many pedestrians.

Swing the axe on mediocrity.

[Rodgerramjet]

Will Thursfield's efforts (read lack of) are disgraceful at times, why he is there instead of Post beggars belief IMO

Totally agree, we couldn't have played any worse having Post there.

Thank the stuffing lord I am in Zambia.

Agree Jack but what else does he say to the media? I hope he has crack behind closed doors! I refuse to open his email this week it as they full of cliched crap i am afraid!
The Cats and $10 bets do play hard and fast footy because they have hard and fast footballers! We don't, unfortunately!But I'd like to see us try to at least!

Fair gobful your giving! Although it was warranted!

[Jackstar is back again]

just watched Dimmas press conference
said the Gold Coast were too good.
( werent we 6 goals up ).
Also said that we deliberatedly slowed the game down in the 3rd quarter  quote, we wanted to hold onto the ball.
Sorry, we needed fast transition footy Dimma
Dimma, your not the answer son,
You havent the ability to get the club to go forward, sorry

[10 FLAGS]

If he told the players to deliberately slow down the play then it shows a major lack of understanding. Very disappointing IMHO. Very disappointing. I was hoping he would do well as a coach but his reputation preceded him and he hasnt lived up to it to this point. I've been disappointed with some of his comments re jackson and edwards amongst other things, maybe this job was just too hard for Damien Hardwick.
