Tigers vs Pies match thread

[Smokey]

Out of interest there's just 13 survivors from last year's round 20 clash and it could have been less if Polo, Rance and Morton weren't brought back in this week.

Cousins, Deledio, Edwards, Graham, King, McGuane, Morton, Nahas, Newman, Polo, Rance, Riewoldt, Tuck



Out: Bowden, Brown, Coughlan, Hislop, Jackson, McMahon, Tambling, Thursfield, Vickery

In: Astbury, Browne, Collins, Connors, Farmer, Martin, Nason, Post, Webberley

And the only one we would really miss from that group is Jackson.

[SPOCK]

Would have loved the Goo to have gotten the defensive forward roll on O'Brien, has the perfect attributes to stop his run out of our forward line

[Ox]

just cos he has ink, does not make him tough

LMAO @ Ink men.

Is that a chick commentating or Anthony Hudson?

Got to protect those magpies umps  

Tuck is on Swan

Leigh Brown is a hack  

Bugger another dud in McCaffer goals. Poor kick by Jack in the middle of the ground  

0 - 7

We can't get our hands on the footy which isn't unexpected with our reserves midfield 

Hooray we got a free. Nahas too high. 45m out. Point

R 1
C 7

Could get messy here.

Yep Jake. Could be 100 points again the way we've started.

Got caught out by the set play from the long kick down the guts from the kick-in  

1 - 13

Another free to Collingwood

When a dud like McCaffer pulls a goal like that you know you're in trouble. Getting smashed in the contested footy. We can't get the ball

Game over already. Back to the first 6 rounds 

1 - 25

I know we've been awful for years, but we seem to have especially bad 1st quarters. Even when we've been in good form e.g. 2001 whenever we've had a big game we capitulate in the first qtr.

[one-eyed]

Good switch of play by Connors. Webbs finds Jack. Shocker of a kick didn't make the distance  .

Only another 90 mins of this

The Pies have come to play. They know a big first quarter would blow us away with all our outs and being a young inexperienced side and they can coast for the rest of the game. It's men against boys.

What fun 

Collo earns the free and goals

Comeback on
