Hello September! The Tiger Army has arrived! :gotigers

With the Blues losing tonight  :lol, we are now mathematically safe - 4 wins clear with just 3 H/A games to go  :thumbsup.

is there any chance of an interstate trip first final and what needs to happen for that to occur?

Ok I've been waiting for this moment to eat crow. Well done to Dimma and the Coaching and Recruitment Departments of the RFC and to Benny Gale and the Administration branch for getting us into the finals for the first time in umpteen years..... :congrats

Unlikely. We would either need to finish 4th (ahead of Freo & Ess) with Sydney finishing minor premiers or we would need to fall to 8th with Freo finishing 5th.

Well done Tigers, players, coaches, admin and leadership.
You have come from a long way back. Round 1 2009 seems like an eternity ago but to be honest at the end of that night, the feeling I have tonight seemed even longer away.

To my fellow Tiger Fans, well done for sticking through the tough times - lets hope this is the 1st step in a long era if dominance.  :thumbsup

He's on board:

Carlton losing means that we are now 100% sure of making the finals.

Nope!

If we finish 5-8 and Port are above us and we play them, then its off to Adelaide for us.

Unlikely, but a mathematical posibility.

Congratulations to the whole club from top to bottom from the appointment of Dimma onwards.
Pretty good from a side who still has 18 on the list when in early 2010 we were labelled worse than Fitzroy of which of which 14 played today.
We have come a long way but we still have some way to go too. :clapping
Once again well done RFC. :thumbsup

+1 :clapping

The key now is to finish off the H/A season strongly and finish as high as we can up the ladder. From there then make a promising impact and go as far as we can in the finals rather than doing a North or Essendon and getting flogged and knocked out in the first week. Then just as importantly we need to back up and make the finals again next year which is something we haven't done as a club for nearly 40 years. Always remembering that making finals is just a necessary step towards our ultimate goal to win a flag.

No stopping here. There is a big chance we'll be 2 points out of the top 4 in 2 weeks time.
Just need to beat Carlton and West Sydney.
While Geelong need to beat Sydney in Geelong.
That will set up a massive last Round. If Hawthorn get over Sydney on the Friday night, we'll be aiming for top 4.
We'll play the bombers who may also be aiming for top 4. Might get over 80,000 again

A cold shiver ran down my back when I saw this pop up in my stuff feed this morning, after all these years I can't believe it's actually real.

Come on you yellow and black! you have to say that we're the wildcard/banana skin team that no one wants to face in september.

No. They will finish 8th because they are no frickin good ( like I been tellin ya'll )and get thrashed by us or Collingwood in the first final. That is unless we finish 4th , which is possible.

Yes, you need to live in another state from that in which the game is played, which will result in an interstate trip for you to see them.
