Lake has been cleared by the tribunal to play this week.

I expect this will be the last week we will play a full strength team including the older players. Next week with a new coach I would be hoping our team looks completely different. :pray

We might get an early clue as who is to be the caretaker.....Big interest in 1/4 time 3/4 time address...Whats happening in the coaches box.

Tickets going for Terry Wallace farewell
Matt Windley | June 05, 2009
THE AFL is expecting more than 40,000 fans for Terry Wallace's last match in charge of Richmond at Etihad Stadium tonight.
AFL spokesman Patrick Keane said that based on sales to date, there would be tickets available at the gate.
The last time the teams met at Docklands, a draw in Round 5 last year, the crowd was 37,767.
On that occasion Bulldog defender Brian Lake famously "cramped" after taking a mark 45m out, leaving Will Minson to kick the equalising goal with only seconds remaining.
Keane said the rate of sales had not increased after Monday's announcement about Wallace's future.
TAB Sportsbet's Gary Davies said punters hadn't jumped on the bandwagon.
"We did bring them (Richmond) into $3.75 earlier in the week but we didn't have heaps of supporters jumping on so we've gone back to $4 and (Bulldogs) $1.22," he said.

For all the plaudits Lake gets, he goes to water quicker than anyone else in the league when the pressure is on.

Like the last half of that quarter maybe, what a game.
Go Tiges :gotigers
-
Well I've seen some things in that half I never thought I would see; Patto dangerous in the forward line, Riewoldt dominating.
So many good players Cotch, Cuz, Jacko, Foley (some beautiful disposal into the F50), Collins etc.
Not sure if they can do that for a whole game but here's hoping
-
were losing that flair again
pray to the tiger gods :pray :pray :pray :pray :pray :pray
-
dream time all over agian
-
Yep run out of legs after being right in the game up to their necks.
That's the tiges we know.

:help

Fitting last game for TW.
Note to new coach; please do not play Pettifer again; 20 odd touches of nothing with poor kicks and ineffective defensive pressure.

Please no Pettifer, Bowden, Simmonds and McMahon ever again....
and Deledio, to have your arse handed to you again by a first (?) year player from the rookie list, go back to Coburg and learn how to work hard.

This game is the perfect illustration as to why we needed to end the Wallace reign, great in patches but ultimately when the pressure is put on the skill level drops and the turnovers commence. Its criminal the amount of ball given back to opposition teams by the tigers. In fact an opposition coach doesnt really need to worry about attacking tactics, all they have to do is focus on defensive pressure and the ball is simply handed over to them to do as they please.
The playing group has shown that they can match it with the opposition, maybe a different playing style and the addition of some more skillful players could make us more competitive. For now i think the caretaker coach whoever that may be needs to give a few of the fringe players a go just so decisions at the end of the season are made easier. There is no point carrying good VFL players any longer if they have shown inadequacies when asked to step up at the highest level.
-
LMAO at whenever petrified touches the ball. Second only to one J Mcmahon.
hate to say it Cogs is just about gone.
too much of a gap betwen his best and worst. cant carry his type anymore.
Polak ditto
-
Only Richmond can have 10% more disposals and lose by more than 10 goals.
Very Dirty night for Deledio.
Jackson must be close to being our B&F this year.
15 pts to 85 in the second half.....Tanking is one thing but have some pride in the jumper.
-
Due to his injuries Cogs is 27 going on 34.

It's a fine line Mat073 and it is going to hurt at times just like it did last night but I can only hope that it is for the greater good in 2 or 3 years time.
Some pride would have been nice maybe that pride could have shaved 15 points off the final result. Albeit if I had personal gain.
I'll let everyone in on a secret for my tips on another thread I came up with the dogs winning by 68 points in our tipping comp. Last time we played the Dogs twice in the same season was 2006 and we lost by 115 and 22 points an avg of 68.5.
After typing 68 it I didn't like the way it looked so I took 5 goals off and typed 38 points to the Dogs and still didn't like the way it looked so I met it halfway and typed 53.
Should have gone with my original thought. :wallywink
What I really am p1ssed off about this decade is the way nothing garbage clubs like
North St Kilda Bulldogs Sydney and to another extent Geelong have all had the wood over us and proud Head to Head records against them is becoming more even and in the Geelong one they are well and truly ahead of us and record losing margins have been regurlarly rewritten. Back to your point Mat073 where some pride in the jumper and footy club would not go astray. Something the new regime need to implement.
-
classic game of show they can play but wont win for the coach & supporters, pee weak effort.
