75 goals to Jack now.What a fantastic achievement.

If you had suggested that J.Riewoldt would be on top of the Coleman at the start of the year, you would of been locked up in a straight jacket.

I know its a team game but I still think its exciting to have the Coleman medalist.....The last time we won anything apart from a couple of Grand Final sprints was the reserves GF back in 1997.

Time to put the "Vodoo" on Barry Hall tonight.

50m against O'Reilly

75 - 94

Keep fighting Tigers

Yeah, that  50m penalty and goal was the killer. Opened the floodgates.
My take on it was the Saints player was umming and aahing about taking his free kick for the out on the full, the ump told him to play on, and O'Reilly went at him accordingly. Then he changes his mind and pings him for infringing over the mark. The goal and ultimately the match were a freaking gift.
Boy, did the air turn dark blue at my place for a good 5 minutes there :banghead

High to Cotch missed  ::)

Free to jack missed   ::)


Post snaps and misses

76 - 94

Yep, I remember those as well. Cotch got dragged round the neck at the centre bounce straight after the 50m gift to St. Kilda, but it was ignored. We got it forward anyway, where Jack was receiving double the amount of attention his cousin Nick seems to need to draw a free, but there was none forthcoming ::) They clear it and score a goal. A 12 point result right there.
Who knows what might have happened if, just for once, the umpires would treat everybody equally, as a Channel 10 commentator said earlier in the telecast referring to Wenn's outrageous comments to Connors.

Jake was awesome, can't believe I'm saying I'm happy to see him go around next year. I'm one of Jake's biggest knockers, good on him.

Yeah Nahas is done, unfortunately just to light. I don't mind short players with pace but you need the body size of a Jared Moore, Milne, Ballantyne, King.

Nahas unfortunately is just to light.
Go Tigers!

You don't mind a loss when you get a lot of positives from the game and they put in like that.

really enjoyed todays game thought we never gave up.

King has earnt his new contract. Has played some ripper games this years. Sorry Dimma but as a club we need individual medals like this and jack will be a deserving winner. Good on him!!

Graham today gee one of his worst games this year. So slow to the contest, getting into players way :banghead :banghead

Edwards. Terrible!! Back to playing last years crap.

i heard Dimma say he will come close to the B&F this year and if that happens it ill be a injustice to Jack, Newy or Lids.

has played about 6 good games this year thats about it. The other games he doesnt do much with the ball and is not damaging.

Has no left foot either like most of our players except Cotch, Lids and Martin.

I thought overall we saw some fantastic signs going forward today. I was really pleased with the performance of many, I dont want to be negative and I wont be but if we change the blokes over who hurt us with blokes who can play a bit then we will go real well. Cotchin was sensational today, the strength in the contest was fantastic. Our midfield was terrific I thought, Jack well he won the medal, and yes I will say that King was terrific today as well.

Whats with the anti Edwards stuff - shows great courage the same as Kingy, got 20 plus possies and still you don't cut him any slack.

For me I'm  a fan , he makes some mistakes but he tries his guts out and takes them on. There certainly are others that are worse than Edwards

PS: He's 20/21 isn't he.
