It'll be interesting what crowd we get this week now that the bandwagon is getting into full swing. No doubt it'll be 99% Tiger supporters.

You might find that we get a classic Ross Lyon display of trying to completely strangle this game..Hope we blow them appart on the wide MCG

Yep I get that feeling too although I think Freo are too undisciplined and don't have the class and patience St Kilda have when executing this type of game. Nevertheless I view this as a danger game and one we need to be mentally prepared for otherwise we may end up making things difficult for ourselves.

Just two weeks to go till the bye Tigers and a well deserved mental and physical rest.

Another must win game this one, then that leads us into a relatively easy should win game before the bye, should be in the 8 then.

Can't get caught up in a shut down game, we must play like we did against the Saints and Hawks. If they try to shut us down or lock the game down and they can't, we will smash them by 10 plus goals!

I think we can win this easily by 10 goals, however we can just as easily lose this by 5-6 goals... it comes down to respecting your opponent
Its something that i mentioned around the start of the season, and the boys have done that in each game.. :thumbsup
I just hope they continue to do that despite the opposition this week and next


Respect em, play on our terms and we will beat em...  :gotigers

Agree a must win game.Can't underestimate them. Lyon has a good coaching record against us. Must stamp our authority from early on in the game

It would be good to show the strength of the Tiger Army at this game. 50,000 people would be a good result.
