Title: Tigers vs Freo
Post by: one-eyed on April 09, 2008, 06:46:50 PM
What's your initial thoughts? Anyone give us a chance?

We haven't won at Subiaco since 2001 against either WA side and lost the last 5 there against Freo.

Sportal saying Tarrant and McPharlin are doubtful although Harvey says McPharlin will play. Harvey hinted either Antoni Grover or Daniel Gilmore may be given the job of blanketing Richo to allow McPharlin to go forward.

One- eyed, with the risk of sounding like i`m going bat- poo, i do give us a chance.
And i`m going to back that up with no stats, no reasoning and certainly no logic but i really think we can win. I liken freo to the tiges at times, it doesn`t matter how good the coach is, sometimes were just not meant to win and i think for once the tiges will run out and have some poo in them.

only chance we have MT is that the sinking Anchors had a real tuff match on a real hard ground last week in very muggy heat.  The players were cramping at halftime.  l never seen anything like it before so that would be a bonus for us, considering we go there to play long direct football & make them run on that big ground,  we could run over the top of them it will be a hard challenge
Honestly l dont rate the sinking Anchors as a top side,  infact they topped up like we done & failed there for a few years.
Rhys Palmer looks like a good player & is rated better than his draft pick number 7 & the other new lad cant think of his name now but he had a very good debut was it Mayne not sure

Mark it in your diary TMonk :thumbsup we finally agree on an opposition player. Palmer looks very promising indeed

Do we have chance.....

Yeah - we actually play well against Subi. Last year we were right in that game until the final quarter - dodgy umpiring decision proved costly. I reckon we can out run the Dockers - it is our forward line set up that is the key IMHO

tell me about it. that rhys palmer will get me 100k on the super coach this week. a future gun in the making.

okay i think we will get smashed this week. absolutely smashed and i am even thin king of slapping a lazy $50 on mcpharline or tarrant to kick most goals in the match

we usually run some dud back into form. corey jones, medhurst whose next??

Post by: Hellenic Tiger on April 09, 2008, 07:57:15 PM
Many think holding Pavlich is the key I think guys like Pav will always take their 12 marks and kick 3 goals with 20 or so touches.
I think its those second and third tier show ponies and decent footballer wannabes like
Farmer Headland McPharlin Carr and co blokes who can go missing for 100 minutes and bob up for 10 or so minutes to tilt a game in their teams favour only to then believe the hype of their deeds and go missing fo the 3 subsequent weeks and end up going home in a police divvy van.
Through that logic some less logic that escapes me right now and some feeling I have inside me (no wait a minute that's dinner) we have a 1.39% chance of winning.
Hopefully if we are in front with 5 to go the umpires don't pluck out some home team frees as we have copped in the last 3 visits.

i dont rate freo either, but being in freo, and freo having 3 extra players (umpires) on the field, we are facing a major uphil battle

something tells me the players have lost faith in wallace, i hope im wrong , but the way we play this week, will confirm whether the team want terry or not

if e have a red hot go, win or lose, that means the boys want terry, if we get blown out of the park, then its plain obvious terry has lost the group
Title: Re: Tigers vs Freo
Post by: cub on April 10, 2008, 09:42:58 AM
Same old here
We have put in a couple of unacceptable efforts, a bit of pressure goes on, we fire up a bit but not enough to win over there Freo by 2 - 4 goals

Same old poop over and over and over and over - Getting really sick of it.

Ohh well no choice but to soldier on I spose  :banghead

Fremantle are the biggest pretenders going around.
They just got over the line against a West Coast team that is clearly struggling this season whereas the Pies are a very good side.
I think this game will be a heck of a lot closer than most people think.

Title: Re: Tigers vs Freo
Post by: mightytiges on April 10, 2008, 11:21:01 PM
The last few times we've been over there we've been the better side in general for a half without putting it on the scoreboard and then got run over in the last on the bigger Subiaco. As TM said we've got to hope the derby and all the hoola that goes with it has taken some of the juice out of Freo.

If we go indirect and handball happy like last week then forget it as we'll get smashed. If we put Tarrant back into form I'll do this ->  :banghead.

Agree about watching out for Headland. Unaccountable and the biggest 'cheat' in the AFL and gets on the end of cheap goals when Freo has the momentum of the game.

I've already put a little wager on us with a 37.5 headstart.

If we only lose to top 4 sides by 40, we shouldnt lose to the DOckers by more than 4 goals.

im trying to find a betting agencey that will take 50bux on tarrant to kick the most goals.

we will run someone into some form, make no mistake about that. farmer, tarrant, mcpharline who will it be this week..

Farmer could kick 6 or 7. Remember 98/99 when he was at the Dees?
Then I will puke when he will stop look at the crowd with his arms raised like he is some sort of Messiah. Then I hope he goes out on the turps and ends up in a divvy van.

A snippet about the Tigers in the West Australian

“Joel would be the first to say his form hasn’t been where he’d like it,” Wallace said.

“In recent years he’s been there a few times early in seasons. His form wasn’t great at the start of last season and he worked back into a pretty strong year.

“Joel probably more than any has been a natural player who reads the game as well as most. If you start second guessing yourself in that reading game, that’s going to have an impact on your footy.”

The dropping of Bowden will set up a possible reunion between former Docker Graham Polak and Dockers captain Matthew Pavlich.

And Tigers midfielder Shane Tuck said despite their $5.35 outsider status, the visitors fancy themselves to cause an upset.

“We reckon we are a bit of a chance against Fremantle ... as a group we think we are good enough to beat them if we come with our best game,” Tuck said.

Whitey has started well.

I know we will have rotten times ahead, but they're nearly all kids out there.
You're gonna be real hot one week and abysmal the next.
That's what happens with inexperienced teams.

Post by: Go Richo 12 on April 13, 2008, 07:24:23 PM
What's your initial thoughts? Anyone give us a chance?

We haven't won at Subiaco since 2001 against either WA side and lost the last 5 there against Freo.

Sportal saying Tarrant and McPharlin are doubtful although Harvey says McPharlin will play. Harvey hinted either Antoni Grover or Daniel Gilmore may be given the job of blanketing Richo to allow McPharlin to go forward.

http://sportal.com.au/afl-news-display/tarrant-battling-fitness-46347
One- eyed, with the risk of sounding like i`m going bat- poohe, i do give us a chance.
And i`m going to back that up with no stats, no reasoning and certainly no logic but i really think we can win. I liken freo to the tiges at times, it doesn`t matter how good the coach is, sometimes were just not meant to win and i think for once the tiges will run out and have some poohe in them.
SOMETIMES IT`S GOOD TO HAVE BLIND FAITH. WELL DONE TIGES AND WELL DONE TO THE SUPPORTERS OVER THERE, WHAT GREAT SUPPORT THEY GAVE, YOU HEAR THEM AND SEE THEM ON TV, GREAT WORK :gotigers

The old saying is that pressure creates turnovers. We always put ourselves under pressure.

Today we worked harder into space, the kicks don't have to be so precise.

You put any team under pressure and they'll cough it up.

Overall very good performance. Need to see more of this and less of the rubbish thats been previously served up. Wallace coached well today. Tambling is on the march.

Jake King, Was good today- 6.5/10
Will Thursfield, - Was very good today, 10 year player- 7/10
Matt White,- Was Ok - 5/10
Chris Newman - Was excellent early, good overall - 7/10
Graham Polak - Good overall, missed chances- 6/10
Kelvin Moore - Good performance from Kelvin - 6/10
Richard Tambling, - Excellent, hes been doing some great inside work in earlier weeks, today he added run, goals, tackles. Took a hard knock but kept going 8.5/10
Shane Tuck - Average - 5/10
Jordan McMahon - I have to be fair, he was very very good- 7.5/10
Chris Hyde - 3 goals, good opportunist, goals get him 6.5/10
Matthew Richardson,- Excellent game- 8/10
Brett Deledio- Can still do much more, overall ok - 6.5/10
Nathan Brown - Good overall, expect much more from Brown 6.5/10
Jay Schulz, - Ok job from Schulz today 6/10
Adam Pattison - Good 2nd ruckman, competes hard, runs hard, 6.5/10
Troy Simmonds,- Took freos rucks to the cleaners- 7.5/10
Kane Johnson,- Was very good, 7.5/10
Nathan Foley - Outstanding again today, 8/10
Luke McGuane,- Plays a role down back, still looking for Rance down the track 5.5/10
Jack Riewoldt - showed me today he can play, still needs a yard- 7/10 Very Good
Shane Edwards,- Is a player,  needs more games 6.5/10
Mitch Morton - Is also a player, adds class but missed some chances. I prefer Morton to Pettifer - 6.5/10

Everyone will try and have a go at you I reckon Jack but I'm not sure it's ALL due. (But some still is to be honest.)

The reason we won today is because we changed a lot since last week.

It was a completely different gameplan like "Negative Nellys," which even I became for a week to an extent almost went our way.

Play some kids, kick it long, let Richo loose, they played White and most of all, they got the match ups right.

I hope that Wallace sticks to the new setup and gets Cleve involved soon also. We need to start working on our new fwd structure. I just hope we keep changing it up and not getting stuck into that same old style and game plan that makes us so predictable.

Really enjoyed Tambling's game today, he was so hard at it and really loved the space at Subi to use his pace.

He has been good the last few weeks and hopefully he can continue to build on that form.

Was a great team effort and i doubt there were many that could be dropped from that team.

Lol ,mate I rapt we won today. Reality is we aint that good , but a win is a win. Might add the opposition were a disgrace today I didnt you watch ?    Good to see some kids get a game for once. . You will see Connors next week ;)

ok, so the oppostion was crap today? is that all you got?

funny how the opposition is always crap when we win isnt it?

not because browny stepped up or tambling too or mcmahon and white running their behinds off all day or morton chiming in for crucial goals or that our skills were much much better today or a miriad of other FACTS but no, its always the ol' oppositions fault we won.

Mitch Morton - Is also a player, adds class but missed some chances. I prefer Morton to Pettifer - 6.5/10

Me too. We don't need Pettifer anymore. He is up to it. CHF's don't have to be that tall anymore, they need to run and create space.

To all the Chris Hyde knockers out there, and there are a lot of you- yes, he might be an opportunist, but he is one that can kick straight. He hits targets over short distances, some people on here call him a chip kicker, so what, at least the chip kicks hit the target, that is important on a HFF, that is important when you are trying to do something different apart from kicking it long to Richo.

Top effort from the lads this arvo, my 1st win being at Subi in 6 years ...

Positive attitude & play was enjoyable to watch.

Would now like to see consistency from the boys in their application & maintain an aggressive game day mental attitude.

Some highlights and a lot to work with & on.

great win.credit where credit is due and that was a fine performance but why does it take a pasting in the media for the tigers to show that  they are playing for the jumper.

i would like bowden out of the team for another week and petts no longer be in this team.

if we are to get serious petts needs to be shown the door. leave jack in there all year.

good effort and even porno star mcmahon was good today...but consistency boys is what im after...........

Jordy on SEN:

* Fought the game out well and to come over here and win is even better.

* Difference in a week? Could be mindset. Pies put pressure on us too. Today showed we are a skillful team. Repeated we are a skillful team.



still waiting for him to be dropped jack

I think the bet was for a guirilla that he wouldnt play more than 15 games . Witing to see if you will pay out



You are a complete tosser Blaisee, never had any bet with you sunshine.
Thought you would re appear after a win, you absence recently has been noticed.

Im just sad that TAB Sportsbets arent taking bets on whether Richmond supporters will be going ape droppings by R11 not only on where we are on the ladder but why we have McMahon and why we DONT have Scott Selwood.


The bet should read as follows.

McMahon 12 games or more at Coburg  $1.33
             11 at each                         $2.00
             12 games or more at Richmond $3.15

Although this will become embrassing for the RFC, they will have to play him regardless of performance, hey look on the brightside, the reason they got him as they wont have to been seen as tanking if they keep playing him, mate, he cannot play and its an absolute disgrace that Selwood aint at Punt Road.
Most of the dreamers on this website dont realise this, hey if you thought Patty Bowden was as skunk, this guy is worse.



3.15 to play more than 12 games at richmond. geez jack, if you have the nuts I am happy to invest a guerilla.

Have you got the balls ...or just like everything else..you are full of crap


You obviously arent a punter, no mention of a quinella there.
There the odds sports bet should be offering on this dud.
By the way, if you think he can play, you are totally deluded.
I actually watched him play at Werribee last year and he is a disgrace, he is worse than Patty Bowden, oh yeah, they have all swept Patty Bowden under the carpet havent they. I actually been to his restaurant a few times, Num num Birdies, well named lol
By the way, I have got the balls, I punt well beyond my means 


so I guess that means you dont have the balls jack, or, have you changed your mind?

Which one is it?

PS Nice to know you missed me, I have been OS on business, nice to come back to a win though, and see Mcmahon BOG with a guerilla on his head, even better ;)

Its a mock up odds you clown..

Read the wordly, IF sports bet were offering odds, I am not sportsbet.
Dont get too carried away with one game, he wasnt best on the ground either. He was playing half back with no opponent. ::)
Lets see when he has to play on a Chapman,etc.
By the way, you obvious didnt see him play against Collingwood,

Wait till he plays on someone who has some idea what Football is about, like what happened against the Pies- he was disgraceful.. Lets just hope that he goes to Mitch Hahn next week lol
Dont waste your time on the internet trying to bait and suck me in, I am entitled to my opinion as you are.
Its funny how carried away supporters get after one win. thats been the problem at Punt road for 25 years.They always get ahead of themselves. Lets see what happens in the next month. if we can win 2 out of next 4 games, I would beleive we heading in a direction of improvement. otherwise if we finish the year in 10th or 12th place, whats the use.

Very tough games to see where is group really is that for you Jack.  Will struggle to win Hawks, Cats and Dogs (Top 3  :-\) but might have a shot against the overrated Saints.

u sound like a complete tool to be honest.

yes we smashed fremantle but hey its freo and did they really try.
tambo, jordy all looked like they had space today. are they the same players when someone is 1 metre away from there, like last week vrs the pies. no!!
uncontested possessions is what i saw today and thats great when ur winning but its when opposition clamp down on us and apply the pressure, is when ur buddy mcmahon willl be found out.

after hearing wallace press conference i am convinced mcmahon will never be dropped his year, even a string of bad peformances.
he is terry's love child and probably his son too

Post by: Tigermonk on April 14, 2008, 02:15:13 PM
Its easy to see where we won this game, The team was formed around pace which is why we had so many uncontested possessions.
This is what we were mising last week running into space & the ball was being kicked instead of excess handball which l thought a few times we nearly came unstuck.
l often wondered why players were looking backwards & thinking of going backwards & now l know why after recording the game with commentators audio off & audio from the umpires & there it is the captain who calls for the ball when his behind the play calling for it to be kicked to him sideways,  :banghead this thye of play must stop because his pace is too slow for the game we need to play but l'm not knocking his performance on the game just a few bad points he needs to stop. His tackling this season is awesome to say the least & the knocks he takes no wonder his slowed down  ;D
Richo although l aint looked at the stats yet,  but as l wrote in another thread dont blame the big guy for our loses, its the coach that needs to change the team plan & shift players to suit, well this obviously worked,  cause he still took alot of marks around the ground & some saving ones infact, he got alot of kicks & kicked goals. l put this game down be the best & most serviceable game Richo has played for the club. What is more exciting about this game is that all players got into double figures in the number of disposals except the injured McGuane who still tryed his hardest after hurting his shoulder. Another thing l like to ask is who coached the forward line
Patto is playing great football in a role people said he would never be able to holddown because of his size but he keeps doing the right things. our runners did all the right things so lets hope they take it into their next game cause l liked what l seen  :thumbsup

dont think we are a great team

dont think Mcmahon is a great player

But to say that Mcmahon is not good enough to play every week for richmond ( if fit) and that he would play 10 games for coburg, is just pure crap

Jack made some outlandish statements I called his bluff and as predicted he took his bat and ball and went home.

I really coouldnt GAF what you think, you and jack are probably the same person, or at the very least related.

Same here. If we win 2 of the next 4 I'd even start to think finals are a possibly this year on the back of a injury free run  :o. The draw opens up from rounds 9-17 if we are good enough to beat 2 of those 4.

In reality I can't see us winning any of them. The Saints on current form are the weakest of the 4 but they always match up well on us and usually give us a good ol' shallacking to get themselves back into form (Geez it would be good to finally beat them though to shut up their loudmouth supporters).

One week at a time for me anyway. I'm not looking past the Doggies game and see if we can back up the Freo win with at least a competitive performance. If our young guys have a downer after all being up on Sunday we will come back to Earth very quickly.

I'll pay the $100 if I lose, hope you will do the same.

Pretty ordinary to go back on a bet IMO.

IMHO one of the reasons there were so many uncontested possessions especially in the back half is because Dimwitted Freo put no pressure on the Tigers. They let the Tigers chip sideways, backwards any darn ways - it played into our hands - struth they allowed us to waste 3 minutes of time in the final quarter with 12 minutes to go. Sorry but that's DUMB.

Everyone knows when we are put under pressure (actually when most of lower teams are) skill errors are made. Freo did not offer any sort of pressure in their F50. Although based on the Tigers confidence as the game went on I don't think any pressure would have made a difference

Freo played DUMB and SLOW footy. :wallywink

Well I'm just a supporter and its not my fault we have been average for the last 25 years, and I'm still going to enjoy this win. I dont for a minute believe that all our troubles are over and I'm certainly not getting carried away, BUT, I am damn sick of all the party poopers trying to wreck my winning feeling by pointing out all the negative reasons we won.
This is a supporters forum, not the coaches box and what we say or feel on here has bugger all to do with how the club performs, so shut up with the constant negativeness and let us "simple" supporters bask for a week! ;D :gotigers

Here, here.  Post of the week. :clapping

so jack

I take it you have changed your position on Mcmahon?

Or are you too depressed by the win to talk about it?

You still think he will play 10 games at coburg?

I expect to avoid the question as usual

stop using immature insults it makes you look even more stupid than you allready are

look Blaisee.
I am entitled to my opinion D/head
he wont get dropped while Wallace comes out and says what he says.
I think Jordon McMahon is a very ordinary footballer, forget about last week against the rubbish that Freo dished up, against decent opposition the previous week he was ordinary.  and was terrible against the Kangas I might add
You see thats the problem with RFc and the supporters, one win or or one good performance and they all start blackslapping everyone.
Wait and see.
You obviously know little about football as if you seen him played lasy year, you would of thought WTF.
Ask anyone from the bulldogs about him, glad to see his back.
Mate have seen enough of McMahon to say he is costing players like Connors the opportunity to play AFL.
McMahon has been in the sysyem for 6 years and is hardly a world beater

Dont think he is a world beater

just think ( always have ) that he was always gunna be in our best 22. And was NEVER EVER ANY chance of playing 10 games at Coburg

Admit you were wrong

Where is the future at Punt Road ? Connors or McMahon.
For what I have seen Connors, keeping in mind of I have been watching Jordon McMahon for 6 years :banghead

I agree that connors is a prodigious talent

has had many off field issues that you obviously arent aware of.
You are also obviously unaware of the fact that he is tad lazy on the track and doesnt work hard enough

The coaching staff believes making him earn his spot, by fixing his mindset will end up helping him in the long run.

Wallet knows how good Connors is. We need him to earn his spot as opposed to gifting him games when he is not working hard enough In the long run, both the club and Daniel will be better off as a result. Connors has more ability and talent  than anyone on the list
( bar lids) If he gets fit, and gets his head right...watch out!  The best thing about him, and I told him this the other day, he has a alot of (unt in him. We all hope he lives up to his potential, making him earn his spot is his best chance ;)

I have watched the comments on McMachon with interest and on your comments i would like to make the following observations- When McMahon was traded by our club I rang my neice who is a long time Footscray supporter - former cheer squad leader and one who has put a lot of money into the club over the years about him and her reply was you have got a good footballer there who unfortunately had personal problems with the other team members caused by reasons out of his control and she felt he had straightened out the problem and he would be an aquisition to the team as he settled in.

Whilst it is common Knowledge that our club has been cleaning out it's list and recruiting youth via the draft .It became obvious to the powers that be after last years dismal effort that some experience needed to be injected quickly into the side thus the trading of draft picks for both McMahon and Morton.

On performances so far both of these players are in my opinion showing justification to the decisions made and will both become valauble members of our team

I respectively take this opportunity to remind you that 'every effect has a cause'and such was the case with McMahon.

Mate get clue.

McMahon the year before last proved he can be a very handy player. When the Dogs were up and running in '06 he looked a million bucks - fast as the wind and hit people 60 meters away on both feet. Nobody thinks he is Voss, he isn't going to get 20 contested touches a game but thats not the role need him for.

Last week we won by more than any of he other 7 games in the league; we looks young skillful and fast. I doubt will win the gf or even make finals but I beleive the blue print is in place. There were 300 uncontested Richmond possessions.

On Freo forums they are saying McMahon hurt them the most and should have been maned up.

I see him as a part of our back 6 until we find someone better (I'd love a Collins/Casserly type to challange for that spot). King, McMahon, Newman look like a solid core with our developing KPP.

Many Dog fans were not happy to see him go, or/and thought pick #19 was not a good deal on their part.

There is room for Connors types and McMahon in the side IMO.

Sorry Jack but your credability for predicting players who will spend a lot of time a Coburg is akin to the magic skills of Kenny Craig.

Remember this...
I am tipping you will see alot of Polak at Coburg this year
The only time Polak has been seen in Coburg since he joined the Tigers was to do a spot of shopping at Northland.
Some posters here are acting like a bunch of "Chattie Cathy's". Just pull their string and we hear the same thing over and over again. "blah blah blah...sack Wallace...blah blah blah...McMahon is no good....blah blah blah...Richmond didn't win convincingly, Freo just didn't try...blah blah blah.

As 2JD said, lets enjoy the win!! I've watched the replay about 4 times and loved every minute. I love seeing the Journo's eating their own words! Next week may be different but maybe our boys will step up and Kick it like we did this week!!! GO TIGES!!!
