Sometimes I'm embarrassed to be a Tigers Supporter
Dimma is the reason we had a chance to play finals this year. He was not the reason we sold our soul to play in Cairns for 3 years or the fact that our previous recruiters/coaches have left him with nothing to call player depth. He was not the reason we had multiple injuries to key defenders/leaders during the game or the ridiculous amount of injuries that hit us like a meteor over the last two weeks. Malthouse would have done nothing different.
I was gutted after the loss to the Suns but the coach has little to do with it. He should have directed the runners to tell the players to flood the backline but we got into that position because we still do not have the depth to cover the players that are missing from our first 22. MIA from the game who would normally be selected were - I.Maric, Martin, Jackson, Griffiths, Foley, Grimes, Vickery, King, White and even Connors. Take that amount of first liners out of any side and they would struggle. With the state of our list we particularly struggle.
Just as an aside - If anyone on this forum ever states that Gus is worth a game again I'll
He is one of the biggest reason our midfield looked average in the past. He is embarrassing to say the least.
