Round 1 Richmond vs Carlton ......... Ratten 2011 = Wallace 2009?

[Tigeritis™©®]

Jackson and Reiwoldt are the ONLY tough players in our team!!! Never will I bag Jackson.

playing well tigers, not giving up

[wayne]

C'mon Tiges!!

Bury these EFFERS!!!

[tiger101]

Looks like we have ran out of puff. Still gave them a scare though.

[Lozza]

Definately a case of young legs, this will improve.

[wayne]

Yeah, we couldn't even manage to get the ball down to Jack.

We were probably lucky to be so close, it should have been lights out halfway through the second term.

I liked all the new kids' games.

Martin was ordinary  

EFF I hate Carltank!!!

[Dubstep Dookie]

Rance was good too.

[wayne]

Rance was good too.

Happy with most of the guys, it was just the centre that cost us...

Dare I say it, Tuck might have been handy....

[2JD]

just what i needed to get my mojo back....sorry boys, i'd lost it there for a while....GO TIGES!

[Ox]

Where was Foley?
I saw him twice and one of them was a turnover
Nason would have been a better stuffin choice.

Deledio - what can i say....a stuffen head case.
Selfish,intellectually challenged and at times a real p o o f t e r.

Jackson deserves all tiger supporters respect.
Tuff,Ticker and tenacity.

Gus tried.

Jak is a stuff.

Vickery needs to stop thinking like a 180cm player and more like the giant he is

Cotch worked his way into the game

Newman worked it.

Edwards out,Farmer in.

Nahas - effective in the right moments but footy is about quarters.

Martin - will take afew games to combat the extra attention in 2011.

Gus -  Worked hard

Morton - ditto

Rance was good too.

Yep one of our shining lights tonight. The improvement in him in the contest and composure is staggering - there is hope yet for Rance to be a long term defender.

Conca and Batchelor showed composure beyond their years(quality), Vickery had an impact and looks to be developing. Jack is an out and out gun. Cotch ran out the game really well after a slow start. Graham got better as the game went on.

Some good signs but gee we were lucky not to be 50pts down at halftime who knows what would have happened then.

Matty white played his role to perfection and dare I say it Nahas prob had one of his best games

That kick-in Deledio did that resulted in a Carlton goal really did the damage.  I wasn't too impressed with Houli.  Thought Cotchin was quiet but picked up in second half. Nahas was good.  Jack was superb!  Jackson was good.  I thought Martin stuffed it up a bit.  Tuck would have been handy.

  . God I just hate the Blues more and more every year, I really still don't rate them. But it does go to show that we are probably this year and next year off playing the football expected at this level and playing as a team. In all honesty we should have been thumped by over 100 points and that would have been a real let down.

Having not seen the game and only reading blogs and the net scores, why was Cotchin only on for 3 qtrs, where was Deledio for most of the game, why was Floey subbed and did we have any injuries??

So next year at this time when we are all really excited about round 1, lets keep the excitement up but pinch ouselves for a bit of a reality check, saves too much disappointment that way. 

[sabartooth]

I agree Edwards has not improved, if not gone backwards

[jackstar is back again]

Rance was good too.

you must not have gone to the game
gave carlton 3 goals by being caught with the ball
