I can see a rapid turn around happening next year.   The team has been coaching itself for 5 years.  If Danny talks the same poo out on the ground that he talks off it how could any player be expected to understand it or interprate it.  The players probably turned off 4 years ago.l

I am disgusted and appaulled with the players and in particular the complete and utter lack of leadership,pride and aggression.
I watched our captain jog past Richo wrestling 2 Hawthorn players in the last qtr.
The same bloke who had it in him to give out enough abuse to give away a certain goal,couldnt fly the flag for his teamate FFS.....as Captain!
Its unfair just to single Campbell out though.
We are so devoid of tough players we rate the likes of Zantuck and Fleming,just because they have a go!
Im a proud and loyal tiger,but geez lm shattered at what lve seen this season :'(

Just to be fair to Campbell, there were plenty of times in the match he got between his players and the opposition to break them up and ensure we didn't give away free kicks.  But as for flying the flag in a scuffle, he is useless.

lol, I'm trying my best Shawry. It's getting harder and harder to stick up for him now that he is washed up. But I wouldn't have a go at a bloke that has finished in the top two of our best and fairest 7 times.

Yep lol
I actually think Campbell played his best footy a couple of years ago - not when he won his B&Fs.  But then he got injured - shame, he had a lot to prove to his doubters like me and he was doing well.

I did say its unfair to single Campbell out,but as Captain and leader of the side,he should be in there defending his teamates.

I agree froars.

In terms of his best footy last year IMHO was Cambo's best before he suffered from his calf/achilles injuries. Before last year Tiger fans would lay into him but he shut them up for good and people realised what a terrific footy player he was. Finally having some decent partners in crime in the midfield in Cogs (doing the inside stuff) and Johnson enabled him to not have to worry every week about coping with the opposition's best tagger and concentrate on his own game. It also enabled him to play in more natural "outside" positions on the ground rather than trying to fill in for us as the inside midfielder he was/is clearly not. This went along way to us starting the year 6-2. Once injuries due to a long season kicked into these three and with no depth we were stuffed.

JohnF, if your going to drop it.....throw the flag to me....Ill proudly wave the Campbell flag. I think the guy has been a credit to the club, althougth there are some things that I wouldn't defend, I just think the guy is singled out bc he is at the helm and thats fair enough to...
