Tigers are mentally weak: Wayne Carey (BPL)

[WA Tiger]

He is correct, funny how a new club full of mainly 17 year olds is mentally stronger than us...well not funny it's down right disgusting!!

Its not so much being mentally stronger but having nothing to lose and throwing caution to the wind!

Something we need to do for the rest of the year.

[Hellenic Tiger]

Totally agree with him.Guy Mckenna would have been drilling to his players during the week that we a mentally weak and go to water when the going get's tough and raise the flag.

Most coaches would. We play alot of teams into form let alone a bunch of kids that would struggle to beat some VFL sides.

Not to mention the over-rated, B-grade hacks from other clubs who always seem to have a field day against us.

yep 100% correct. Same old Richmond.

Its what Lethal used to drill into his charges pre game against us.

We are still the laughing stock of the AFL, all but maybe 2 players, Cotch being one the rest are little girls affraid to get their hands dirty

but only for 18 months

LOL gold!

Carey's half right. Yes, the Tigers are mentally weak. But we still would have beaten Port Adelaide and Gold Coast in Melbourne. End of story.

Why are people clinging on to the words of this self serving halfwit anyway?  He would make a pox coach, for a start, he is dumb as a plank and couldn't communicate any knowledge he has coherently.  For example, Warrick Cappa was a talented forward, perhaps we should get him as a coach?  (To be honest, Cappa strikes me as smarter than Carey and has ten times more integrity).  The team looks down right now but in the past they have shown some great tenacity so it is just a case of getting games into these first year players and recruiting to fill our weak spots.  I wouldn't trust Carey near our club, he would be working towards our ruin somehow or other.

No we wouldn't have if we dished up the crap we did in Darwin & Cairns. End of story

[one-eyed]

Snip!

We know Capper is a whacko but let's keep things above the belt ppl. Now back to the topic!

[gerkin greg]

Capper's belt is usually around his ankles...

[Coach]

LMAO, what got snipped? Hate snips.

I like Carey. He was good on Footy Classified

[Dubstep Dookie]

Capper hasn't been snipped. Just watch the video

I honestly believe we wouldn't have dished up that crap at home. Our season unravelling can be traced back to that game in Darwin. We were on a roll, and that game, combined with all the travel and bus trips we endured over the ensuing weeks just killed our momentum stone cold dead. We're talking about the two bottom teams here. By selling out our rights to a TRUE home game, we just played right into their hands. You can argue til the cows come home. But don't bother trying to convince me otherwise. At the end of the day we'll just have to agree to disagree.

It's a hard one Roycey. Who knows what the momentum and confidence would've done for such a young group and the supporter groundswell if we'd played Port at home and flogged em as I believe we would have.
 Truth is though if we were worth our salt we would've won that game...and the week after when we had Melb on toast early...and the Suns game. Even then we probably finish 8th or...err...9th
 We just gotta pray the RFC has got it right this time

I hate the snips, I'm always too late to see them before they happen.  How about an archive page where all the snipped threads get placed for those that want to see the bits they missed?
